We can watch moments in detail without being attached to them. Non-attachment to past \u0026 future stems from this practice. Worry about past or future is wasted energy, however we can observe the past \u0026 learn from it without agonising over it \u0026 trust ourselves to handle the future better. We can celebrate the opportunity to grow as we gain understanding from observation \u0026 experience. We can watch ourselves \u0026 avoid being caught up in over-reactions. 'I am loved, right now, in this moment, I love, and am part of love itself. I am aware of myself at every level - the mental slowing gracefully to sense the spiritual within \u0026 all around, and the physical being still, or moving. I tune in to the flow of life in my body \u0026 the flow of life everywhere. I circulate love with each breath - from without to within \u0026 from within to all around.","author":"Jay Woodman","tags":["awareness","breath","breathing-in-awareness","energy","experience","flow","life","life-philosophy","life","love","meditation","mental","mindfulness","moment","moment-of-being","moments","moments-of-life","moments","movement","non-attachment","observation","over-reaction","physical","reaction","slow-and-steady","slowing-down","stillness","stillness-of-mind","stillness-of-soul","stillness-of-the-mind"],"id":1489,"author_id":"Jay+Woodman"},{"text":"The Conditioned Mind / shuts off magical vision and gnosis / gives up freedom, truth, real choices / loses sight of love, trust, and social coherence / loses touch with organic life, gives way to interference // risks personal wellbeing, peace of heart, balance of mind / is tricked into believing we need power, money, lies / and people to lead us by the nose into violence and war / is hypnotised, drugged, poisoned, misinformed.","author":"Jay Woodman","tags":["balance","conditioned","freedom","gnosis","heart","magical","mind","organic","peace","trust","truth","vision","wellbeing"],"id":6485,"author_id":"Jay+Woodman"},{"text":"Sing the world into existence…..","author":"Jay Woodman","tags":["existence","sing","world"],"id":7852,"author_id":"Jay+Woodman"},{"text":"Love yourself enough to take care of your health of mind, body, and soul as a top priority, then you'lll be fit to face anything.","author":"Jay Woodman","tags":["body","fit","fitter-happier","health","love","mind","soul"],"id":7990,"author_id":"Jay+Woodman"},{"text":"All of creation expands and evolves.","author":"Jay Woodman","tags":["creation","evolution","evolves","expanding-evolving-consciousness","expands"],"id":8132,"author_id":"Jay+Woodman"},{"text":"Everything I am seems to be inside my awareness, rather than my awareness being inside of me.","author":"Jay Woodman","tags":["awareness","awareness-of-life","awareness"],"id":8926,"author_id":"Jay+Woodman"},{"text":"Be still and know you are loved –Feel the arms of the universeRocking you to its steady hum.","author":"Jay Woodman","tags":["loved","rocking","steady","still","universe"],"id":10076,"author_id":"Jay+Woodman"},{"text":"The supposedly intelligent are often too quick to judgewhen really all that's needed is loveand understandingbut try not to judge them in return because they will often judge themselves even more harshlywhich is so sad in a world that's already so full of pain that hugsand forgiveness should be called forevery single day.","author":"Jay Woodman","tags":["forgiveness","judge","judgement","love","pain","understanding"],"id":11892,"author_id":"Jay+Woodman"},{"text":"I believe in the power of love, and planting positive thought seeds into the collective consciousness.","author":"Jay Woodman","tags":["collective","consciousness","planting","positive","power-of-love","seeds","thought"],"id":16270,"author_id":"Jay+Woodman"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":213,"pages":22,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
