The Practice of Small Things


“Change begins in gestures so small they almost feel like breath.”

One glass of water for every cup of noise,
a moment of stillness for every choice.
Rest before midnight, wake with the light,
honor the body that carried the night.

These are not rules, only remembering,
that wholeness begins with attending.

-Kerri-Elizabeth-
By tomorrow, the body will answer back, with calm you can feel from within.

What are some small gestures you add to your daily routine to give honor your body?

  1. What a beautifully gentle and reflective piece! 🌿✨ The words flow like a soft meditation, reminding us that healing and balance often begin with the smallest, most intentional gestures. I love how you framed these acts — not as rules, but as remembrances — a return to self through simplicity. The imagery of “one glass of water for every cup of noise” is especially powerful, symbolizing the quiet choices that nurture peace in a noisy world.
