The current times may feel turbulent, chaotic, uncertain. Can you find the Stillpoint within? There is a place within all of us that is like a clear pool of water. We often are so identified and stuck in our heads, you may think this stillness doesn't exist for you. But it IS there. It takes patience held in the sacred present moment to encourage and direct your awareness to drop down, lower and lower, uncovering deeper layers of the self. I often think of it as changing the radio station - learning to direct awareness and attention to different layers and levels within.
Here's whats feels current, meaningful, interesting:
take short breaks to go outside, let your eyes really take in and receive the fall colors
pay attention to breath, breathing into your back body and pelvic floor
singing silly songs and/or roaring and yelling - let your voice run free
learn something new, find a new documentary instead of another TV drama
