Take Your Time

Hari Om

Taking our time to breathe, to bring our awareness into our body, and to settle our mind is no small thing. It is not about “being healed”. I’m not even sure what healed means. Does it mean no more wound? No more scar? No more memory of pain that our training wants to avoid? Who knows? I certainly don’t want to wait to be happy, or to love, or to be in love until I am “healed”. I want to be all of those things right now, in this messy, confused, forgetful body.

I don’t want to keep functioning as if I am broken.

If I want to stop pretending “I am okay”; I have to stop believing “I am fucked up”.

We can actually be okay in all of our neuroses. We can have all of the joy, the splendor, the wow and amazement of life right now!

All in Love,

Michael
