The focus of this guided meditation is healing - through breathing. Julie Potiker completes the meditation with the poem," We Were Made for This," by Julia Fehrenbacher.

We Were Made for This, by Julia Fehrenbacher
I want to fill this spacewith words that will erase the distancebetween your certainty and mine
make room under the big, empty skyfor grace to sit, move closeruntil skin touches skin, eyes see eyes.
Maybe we can take a good, deepbreath, clear body and mind of allthat’s come before. Promiseto pay attention, to stay—especially when it hurts.
Maybe this time we will seethat it has nothingto do with who we’ve beenor who we think we are
and everythingto do with being fiercely here—like breath is for life. Yes,like that.
Maybe—perhaps, we can beginand begin again with—I don’t know. Seethat it takes just one step towardto erase the distancethat was only ever a thought.
Dinner is on the stove, will you join me?
