We Are Waiting For The Next Moment

Observing Desire Without Acting On It Enlarges Our Freedom To Choose How We Live.

When I Watch That Attachment Happening, I See The Beliefs That I Have Around It. If Somebody's Not Paying Attention To Me In A Certain Way, In My Mind, It Means They Don't Love Me Or They Don't Respect Me. Bringing Awareness To The Beliefs That Are Underneath The Attachment And Bringing Awareness To The Way My Body And Heart Are Tightening, Helps Me Wake Up And Re-inhabit A Larger Space Of Being. Holding On And Pushing Away Might Be Going On But I'm Freer To Respond In A Healthy Way.

If I Can Forgive The Attachment In Myself And Open To The Vulnerability That's Underneath It, Then Rather Than Fixating On Another Person To Satisfy My Need, I'm Actually Going Right To Where The Needs Come From And Able To Bring A Real Healing.

It May Sound Lovey-dovey, But There's Research Showing The Positive Effect Of Meditation On Parts Of The Brain That Control Emotion.
