Stop running, sit!

“Sitting practice is a way to be kind to yourself and to have the courage to find out and be who you are. It is a way to stop running from your anxiety, running to catch up or keep up with your neighbors, running to fulfill your own and other’s expectations for you, running away from knowing your own mind and heart, running towards your death and rarely ever tasting the richness of your life.”

‘Sacred World’ Jeremy and Karen Hayward

    You’re welcome Beeutiful, I’m glad it spoke to you. I HAD to. It practically leapt off the page and bit me! Especially that last line.

    It’s been echoing in my head.
