It is energy.","author":"Thomas Arnold","tags":["ability","energy"],"id":1269,"author_id":"Thomas+Arnold"},{"text":"Mindfulness \u0026 Meditation help focus on the moment while at the same time knowing we cannot capture that moment, we are in a flow of moments we let flow. 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":"I tried to hold fire once...See from a distance it mesmerized me captivated me for hours at a timeThe more it danced with the wind, I felt my body sway to its rhythm I tried to hold fire onceIt's glow drew me in closerAnd although I know full well the damage that fire can do...Staring directly at it, I know it's beauty tooIt's warmth was now on my face and I couldn't imagine being in any other placeI reached out with my bare hands \u0026 it danced even moreAnd suddenly I felt it's heat deep within my coreRising like a volcano ready to eruptBut somehow balanced \u0026 purposefulI tried to hold fire once until I realized that fire held me Passionately and I was it's guiding force.
