Change Practice.

My name is adrienne maree brown. I’m a writer.

For me the most effective way to begin a change or to turn into a change that is inevitable is to bring my attention to how I feel. Literally scan my body from the top to the bottom or race my attention to the place that feels most provoked, most agitated, most distrubed. For me, it’s often my gut. But usually by the time I reach my gut I realize my mind is also in a little bit of a loop. If I notice that, then I can notice that the loop is not me but the loop means some change is happening. And all I have to do is decide, how do I want to be in this change? And I’ve changed. And there we go.
