Back to the Body

She or he is so material in their thinking, we often hear. They should be more spiritual! And we go full speed for the Spirit - up and high, something grand and pompous, often seemingly outside of ourselves. And complicated. Only spirit knows! If spirit wants... If things HAVE to be this way, we say, and look subservient. Meaning: I am a little human and not familiar with the ways of the spirit.

However there comes a moment when the pendulum swings back and comes to the place of greater balance. Where spirit is the most natural thing, simple and within us, breathing us each moment. Being us. While we come to realize the importance of the body, as the grounding key to returning Home, either with it or without. The temple that houses us. And that their separation does not serve us. And only restricts the flow of life within us.

How about finally giving up that resistance. Stop putting on the armour of protection and dividedness. Making space for self to flow without restriction. Allowing it all in. While staying in the body. Feeling it as an extension of our innermost essence. Anchoring deep and wide. Following the breath and the feelings of the body. To allow, to relax more and more into life/love/all/flow/totality/god. Allowing it to carry us. In gratitude. In trust and knowingness that all is well. Receiving it all. Letting it all in unconditionally. Falling into the totality of self, totality of love. Giving it permission to nurture our body, all cells, giving up all doubt.

And choosing joy. Saying YES to life. Breathing in love and breathing out resistance. And feeling it in your body. As your essence rises and fills every inch of it. Bubbling with sweetness and joy. Sparkling with light and lightness, ease and playfulness, enthusiasm and aliveness. Feeling the confined limits of the body dissolve... YEEES!

Being at one. While allowing all resistance the body still might be holding to surface and dissolve. Nothing to be forced. Just opening up and allowing...
