However, as days go by this is turning out to be an opportunity to really be within myself, close to me. I see that in this very challenging situation, my mind is doing its job of trying to figure out the best ways to keep me safe. All energies are looking for solutions.
And it's very very frustrating, tiring. However, in the body there continues to be a certain rhythm, a flow of okay ness. Things upset yet things go on. I find that there is tremendous sadness , i cry for no apparent reason , yet I laugh, I can see beauty around me. I can also sense others suffering and empathy flows. My current despair makes me very vulnerable and also open, softening of ego.
Its easier to be myself.
When I notice all this , the mind rests jn the body. It seems to me that that's what the mind needs most-a place to rest. And it happens in the body. I am not meditating or doing asanas but in the true sense yoga-the union of my entire being- is happening. Life caring for itself through the body and as seen, sensed in the body. Its the untrue thought that I am alone, that all is lost, these thoughts are creating misery. But the true emotions and feelings in the body always have an okay ness to them. Even sadness is rich and very comforting when sensed in the body.
I can trust the body to take care of my mind, so I listen to all my senses and let things pass through me as they are.
