write poems about the sky
express yourself in fashion
think happy thoughts
move the energy through your body
celebrate the good days
breathe deeply, exhale fully
listen to the trees’ stories
indulge in soothing epsom salt soaks
what you need to do now
heal yourself
make sure you give lots of hugs
turn your face towards the sun
splash color on a page
and lines and shapes too
travel and dance and stretch and flow
talk to people who inspire you
journal and process your feelings
frolic with the waves
what you need to do now
heal yourself
walk and explore your town
eat foods that nourish and restore
study the patterns
recognize the immense bravery
collage only the highlights
scrub away the fear
smile and laugh and laugh and smile
say an ardent goodnight to the moon
what you need to do now
heal yourself
