Our Greatest Longing Is To Be Intimate.

As I Noticed Feelings And Thoughts Appear And Disappear, It Became Increasingly Clear That They Were Just Coming And Going On Their Own. . . . There Was No Sense Of A Self Owning Them.

When We're Awake In Our Bodies And Sense, The World Comes Alive. Wisdom, Creativity, And Love Are Discovered As We Relax And Awaken Through Our Bodies.

Take Moments To Savor What Is Beautiful And Good.

The Emotion Of Fear Often Works Overtime. Even When There Is No Immediate Threat, Our Body May Remain Tight And On Guard, Our Mind Narrowed To Focus On What Might Go Wrong. When This Happens, Fear Is No Longer Functioning To Secure Our Survival. We Are Caught In The Trance Of Fear And Our Moment-to-moment Experience Becomes Bound In Reactivity. We Spend Our Time And Energy Defending Our Life Rather Than Living It Fully.

Relaxation Is The Doorway To Both Wisdom And Compassion.
