Center Isn’t Calm — It’s Steady

When we talk about “coming back to center,” it’s easy to picture quiet rooms and empty calendars.

But center doesn’t always mean calm.

Life can still be noisy.
The house can still be full.
The to-do list can still exist.

Being centered doesn’t mean everything around you has settled.
It means you haven’t completely disappeared inside the noise.

It’s the feeling of knowing where your feet are.
Of staying with yourself, even when things feel messy.
Of noticing when you’re overwhelmed — and softening instead of pushing through.

Center is steadiness, not perfection.

And steadiness is something you can return to again and again.
