Your Companion for Wellness in Every Season Dearest Reader, Take a slow, grounding breath. Let your shoulders drop. Feel your chest expand as you inhale, and exhale the tension you’ve been holding. You are safe, and you are right where you need to be. Last week, we talked about advocating for yourself by asking for a raise.
