The Everyday Mind
Last post we touched on being led by the sense of harmonic flow, as well as recognizing stress and anxiety as resistance. The resounding feedback has been enough for us to explore, together, the path of least resistance. Consider this a reminder to reach out if a deeper dive is […]
I connected early and easily with animals. Four leggeds vibed on a frequency that I understood often better than people (still, to be fair). I felt their language, the energy of their compromise. Some of that connection rooted in mutual grief over the loss of their freedoms, in ways I […]
Having the last few posts building up to and then encompassing meditation, begs the question, how did we do?
