Say Something
In 2016 I had the pleasure of going to the HeartMath Institute in Boulder, California. I really had no idea what to expect from an organization that studies the power and intelligence of the heart, but I imagined something simultaneously clinical and inviting, as paradoxical as that may sound.
Try to stay here, here in this body and see how it feels.
It really is like no other experience out there. Tapping in to tap out, what an interesting thought!
What is also very interesting is the flow of writing that happens when you get out of the way. Half made sentences, half made thoughts, half closed eyes and legs, what else is half? Breath, r u still breathing? Good. Notice that you are and take a couple conscious breaths , honouring the life that is . the intelligence that flows. Like water. It likes ease. Spirit likes ease. It doesn’t work well with struggle, tension or force. It chooses the path of least resistance and likes to flow. Just the idea of that makes me smile. Sigh of relief.
