My cat does energy work
Dozing by my side
To Anxiety who lurks
She offers purrs in kind
Behind the poem
As far back as I can remember, I have always been a worried person. If not in full blown panic mode, at the very least the quiet hum of something is off provides its ominous soundtrack to my every day.
Exercise, meditation, mindset work, yes. I know. I hear you. But have you ever laid down next to a purring kitty? It works like nothing else I’ve ever tried (and trust me, I’ve tried many a thing). Those gentle feline vibrations turn my nervous down several notches in a matter of minutes.
Perhaps it’s that wondrous combination of purrs and fur. So soft, so luxurious. Silken under-paws, velvet ears, and forbidden bellies of floof. And the cuteness. A cuteness that will distrupt your productivity, dissolve your priorities and declutter your preoccupations with one slooow blink.
Am I saying anxious people should have cats? I would never make such a blanket recommendation for we are all individuals Yes I am.
Until next time, thank you for being here
If you feel so inclined, do share this poem with your fellow friends of felines.
Have a beautiful day,
Aimee
