It takes significant practise to sit with ourselves when conflict comes up. We have been so habituated to numb and suppress by placing things in our mouths to allow the other senses to take over. Either eat, drink, smoke something, these all have an impact on the liver, Yes, even smoking.
Tears have been significant for me to be able to sit in the conflict when the mind and heart meet up with different challenges.
Kindness has allowed me to accept the "I do not know" and allow myself to be empowered with this statement.
The mind wants to control so much while the heart can be giving and free.
Meditation assists in allowing the inner conflict to be transcended and alchemized into wisdom.

This is the development of self-awareness, acceptance and going through it.

Sit with the discomfort and observe the waves do not become involved with them, simply observe them till you reach a space of emptiness and clarity.
This statement is not easy to apply yet as simple as it may sound; there is significant power.

You need your liver for energy and health; please do not damage the filter.

Just Begin

To find new possibilities requires that you take the first step in doing something different and to begin something new can feel overwhelmingly scary. You have the courage within you to enter into that fear and use it's energy to activate those steps. Dare to begin over and over again.
New possibilities are within your reach daily it's for you to take those steps towards them.
Just Begin.

 

Surrender

Surrender with feeling the fragility of life and having reverence from the pain of it. Tears are a gentle method to release all the overwhelming energy in the psyche. Having your heart open will invoke tears to flow, nurturing the awareness to remain awake and not fall into the slumber sleep of denial.

Profound Awakening can feel brutal because you have to see all that you have allowed and how small you have been playing. You have to love the rage that comes up from soaking in blame and judgement of wanting the story to be different.

Be aware of the cunning tricks of inner conflict the mind uses with time; It will want this awareness to judge the past luring you in thinking you could see while projecting all the possibilities of pain in the future.

Be loving-kindness when fear of uncertainty comes up as the mind can throw the most fearful thoughts in a method of protection. When tears need to flow, let them run free and liberate an open space.
