Preparing Room, One Breath at a Time
A soft follow-up to Episode 45: Attentive to His Presence—Preparing Room in a Noisy Season
In this Rooted Moment, Sanda offers a simple, spacious pause in the middle of a noisy season.
Through Psalm 46:10 and the quiet humility of Luke 2:6–7, she invites you to breathe deeply, loosen your shoulders, and make a little room—just one breath at a time.
This short reflection includes a guided practice called “The One-Minute Room,” helping you re-center and return to God’s presence no matter how full your life feels.
If Episode 45 encouraged you to prepare room, Episode 46 gently helps you hold that sacred space.

Just one minute of stillness.
One inhale: “Here I am, Lord.”

This gentle return becomes your personal manger—an open place where Christ is welcome.
Optional second practice: clear one small thing in your home or garden and whisper,
“This is room for You, Lord.”
