Release Those Burdens

RELEASE THOSE BURDENS!

It has become heavy with all the obligations that you insist on carrying!
You have to eat, breathe, drink water, rest, dream, move, excrete and care . . .
The rest is what you have decided to add to your collection of 'to-do's' and the distraction of these lists of things that you must do, is taking away from the most crucial act of all!

That moment in time when you sit back, let go and allow your breathing to become soft and gentle. In this place, all stress leaves the body and your mind clears of negative thoughts. 
It is now that you are able to allow the space to begin to compile itself around you, causing a buffet around you - like a soft down duvet.
You sense it leaving and moving further and further away until you are left on an isolated piece of turf, with only canyons and cliffs in the distance around you.

You are alone . . .

In the silence, you are able to imagine being in the cosmos.

It is bright with stars and not as quiet as you may imagine, as comets go by and stars twinkle, bringing a melody into your surroundings. You feel the radiance of the universe seeping through every nano-cell of your being and you feel lighter and translucent.

It is now that you can imagine that nothing back on earth is a burden and everything is a choice. A choice which you can release or keep . . . it is up to you. You can return and make changes and you can free up the obligations and burdens that you have, so that you can enjoy life to the fullest.

Now see yourself return to where you are feeling safe and lighter.

First - we free ourselves and then we begin the real work!!

    Move to the eye of the storm... where interestingly enough, the sky over us is clear, the pressure is low and the temperature warmer. I mean literally.

Letter To My Heart

12/12/2017 LETTER TO MY HEART Dear Heart . . . I know that I have kept you in the eternal wardrobe of mindless endeavours. In this darkness, you have persisted on knocking at the door and have never given up on me. Your rhythmic beating has always  faithfully  kept me alive and able to do the things that I do, had the experiences that I have had and the loves that I have cared about.  I have neglected you on so many levels and have rarely fed you the right stuff  . . . and I have ignored your fervent warnings when tough decisions have been imminent.  For this, I write this letter - I want to acknowledge that you are paramount to my survival and not only do you beat the rhythm which keeps me breathing, but you know me better than anyone else, as you are the friend who has been with me the longest! As positive change is a part of my future, I want you to be a part of that too! I want you to be at the head of my table, ta...

Why We Kneel

19/12/2017 KNEELING IS NOT RELIGIOUS . . . Kneeling is human . . . When circumstances give you more than you can stand . . . it is time to kneel. There are two grand mysteries wrapped up in the art of kneeling . . . and it is an art! The first mystery is the kneeling itself and it is the time to relinquish everything and surrender all the burdens that cause the back to bend, the knees to buckle and the heart to strain. Bringing the knees to the ground, connects the heart to the earth. The second mystery is the holding of the hands in prayer and it is time to close off all earthly concerns and open a circuit between the heart, the intuition and the divine.  Religious folk do this, yogi's do this and many other believers do this - It is a natural state of being human, to seek a place of solace, a sacred sanctum or sanctuary, to withdraw from the maddening crowd and find the voice that speaks from within - In the position of prayer as described above, you ...

The Great Journey of Ascension

  And the days ahead . . . The exhausted apex climber takes a breath and lets her body go momentarily silent. He is nearly there; he can smell the clean air amid the heights of personal effort. Then, with one last breath, she pulls herself away from the mountain face to begin the final ascent. He matches each footstep, one step after the other, with courage, resilience, fortitude, bravery, discipline, and focus. She clears the top! Nothing is above her, and everything below is a testimony to the effort and single-mindedness that allowed him to overcome challenges along the way, like the stone in her shoe and the slip when he misjudged the stone’s integrity. Not everyone would experience a stone in her shoe or the dangers of a loose rock. Instead, others might experience a cutting wind or skin blistered by the blazing sun. While some would cry and sit on the ground as their frustration got the the better of them, others would try to help by offering to share their load. Some would r...
