Face the Future You Want

You can’t get to the future you want by avoiding it. In today’s mantra, we explore how fear of the unknown can hold us still, and how gentle action — even the smallest step — can begin to move us toward the life we imagine.

Jennifer Cray is a life coach, meditation teacher and yoga teacher for Living Lit Up, based in Brisbane. You can deepen your meditation practices with her on Insight Timer.
