One of the most important steps to shift your frequency to put yourself in a calmer state is to pause. We live in a constant connected world. GOING. GOING. GOING. DOING. DOING. DOING.

So Pause let’s to take a timeout from that. To just be with yourself and open space to ask yourself, “How am I?”

So to create the best conditions for Pause, we will use music and comfortable location. You can use the featured music and find a comfortable spot where you can be free from distraction. While you are pausing, take a moment to ask yourself - What is my strength?

Enjoy!

Something Must be Done About Prince Edward County: A Family, A Virginia Town, a Civil Rights Battle by Kristen Green

The author grew up in Farmville, a small town in Prince Edward County, Virginia. She shares what she discovers about how her family was involved with refusing to integrate schools after the Brown v. Board of Education decision.
