Slowing Down, Knowing the Presence

After more than 20,000 deaths on US roads this year, the National Transportation Safety Board has recommended a new vehicle system that could stop drivers from speeding. The technology recognizes speed limits and issues alerts when a driver is speeding or prevents vehicles from going above those limits. It’s up to automobile manufacturers whether they introduce the technology.
“When gripped by fear or anxiety, the reflex is to speed up or remove oneself. That’s typically when we need to slow down. Often, when we feel the impulse to flee, it is the opportunity to face ourselves. Taking a deep meditative breath can often break the momentum of anxiety.” – Mark Nepo, The Book of Awakening
Affirmative prayer: Today, I move with the cadence of the Divine which invites me to be still and know the presence of all Good in my life. With each pause, I return home to my higher Self. Thank you, God, forever. Amen.
