Navigating by the fixed points
I am also lingering in an unexpected way. I fell down the stairs over a week ago and it has affected my nerves - everything is ‘on a trigger point’ . Not so it shows up on scans but jolts/ shivers/vibrations. 
Also in this scary, suddenly unsafe world I have been thinking about and drawing the ‘fixed points’: the daily sunrise; the stars; set prayers; poems; the earth; music; strong trees; hills and the still, small voice of calm. I think we can navigate by these?!
It’s taken me a while to calm myself and realise how slow I need to be for now - even the smallest movements create sensation. At first, I thought my world was shrinking. I am lingering ‘in place’.
But now I am starting to realise that all those previous walks and lingering are still healing me even though I can’t do them at the moment. All the lock down practises of walking and sauntering in one small area mean that I can still go for a walk in my mind and I can find my way along the path intimately remembering what is there. And it’s just as soothing, just as lovely but not using my leg muscles and I am so grateful for this whilst I heal.
