Meditation can be a gate to feel more at ease in being silent. There are times my mind (and the minds of others;-)) keeps me busy: I have to do this, be there and whatever I do is not enough.. . And at the same time this makes me feel the same stress of old times.
My desires and unease can keep me from doing less. If I let my fantastic mind take control over my body pushing me forward, against the signs and symbols I get from my body… I start to breath in a different way, as if I don’t have the time to stand and notice my voice getting higher and pain in my neck and old issues seem to find a sneaky way back into my awareness.
Before I get too involved in all these old patterns I suddenly remember my release button. The words come softly, I start to talk louder to hear and sense the words I speak. Oh yes, I do know this running and pushing myself forward, and others, is not my true way! I take this turn right here and now. I stop and stay. No need to run away of all the noise I feel.
I just need to connect with my heart, soul and source.
Slowly my breath comes in my belly, my chin relaxes and my lips curl. And soon my face smiles and tension gets out of my way. I feel the ground again and my heart opens in a great THANK YOU.
My Daily Tao practice is my home base. From that point my day or hour or minutes can reveal itself in a more friendly way. Grace is a word that connects with this feeling.
You can try it out and join me in my daily routine. Send me an app or sign in and you can join right here and now. Thank you! I hope to meet you on the other side of our patterns of stress.
