It's about the Ride

The destination, truly,

is all but meaningless.

It can be a HUGE distraction

that shoots us out of our bodies

as we desperately try

to already BE in the future

while regretting ourselves

in the moment,

(not to mention the past).

We lose this magnificent moment;

the only moment

where our power is.

And the thing that causes illness

the thing that causes self-doubt

the thing that causes pain and suffering

is resisting ourselves,

our own experiencing,

in this moment.

Resisting this magnificent Being

that we are. Right now.

Say “Yes” to that. Say 'Yes" to self,

to movement, to sensation

to breath, to being.

Feel and be with what is,

here, in this moment.

That's IT!

There is no more!

Of course, there’s more.

There’s always more!

But we don’t have to

NOT enjoy ourselves NOW

because there will be MORE to us,

more OF us,

in the future.

Denying ourselves aliveness,

pleasure and satisfaction now,

because we’ll be something

Being Embraced

A Description of Contact Improvisation Dance Practice: Achieving inner stillness through attention to, and acute observation of our impulses; our bodily experience. Meeting at the point of touch and exploring, through mutual responsiveness, what movement wants to unfold from an authentic, neutral space Curiously exploring that meeting, that point, that present moment, while maintaining full, unconditional presence. Saying, “YES!” in response to the other, without diminishing our self; without compromising our own authenticity. Surrendering to process, letting go of judgment, of intention, of willfulness. Experiencing a spaciousness that allows full acceptance self and other. As we are. Mutually supporting what is happening. And when there are ‘disconnects’, stopping and waiting. Waiting for that full presence to come into each of us again; for that felt sense of, “Ah yes, you are here, I am here, we meet here.” And in agreement, continuing. Joined, yet separate and individual. Connecti...

Where is my Support?

When I am connecting to Source Every thing is my support. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ When I think you are being self-centered I have left my center. Nothing can support me when I've left my center. Every thing and everyone is my teacher. Every encounter is perfectly reciprocal. When I lose connection with me I lose connection with you, I feel as if you have left me. But I have left me. When I am Being You are able to meet me I am able to meet you We are One. The ego is terrified of abandonment, of shortage, of our True Nature. It contracts, it runs, it thinks, it calculates, it worries, it accuses, it blames it attacks, it is a black hole that sucks........ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ego thinks, Source Acts ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Support is felt when we know ourselves as Source And when we know everyone and everything as Source. There is nothing t...

Are you exhausting yourself by how you relate with others?

Do you identify yourself as someone who acts co-dependently, as a caretaker, or people pleaser? Do you find that you adjust your ideas Your behavior, your feelings, your actions, your thoughts based on how someone else might react? Do you have trouble knowing what you really want? Do you often feel powerless Or oppressed? Do you have trouble standing up for your needs? Is it hard for you to find your own voice especially in interpersonal relationships? As I was holding a quiet state of presence with a client recently while we were silently connecting through eye contact alone, she was able to notice that her mental processes were working overtime. Reflecting what I perceived in her energy I said, "Its exhausting." And she had the insight that, during this intimate moment between us, when she could have been simply and deeply relaxing into receiving herself, and receiving my embracing attention, instead her mind was frantically working,. It was obsessively searching ...
