What wisdom would you share here? We welcome your input, inspirations and questions!

I talked with a friend yesterday about a gift of self love that took a while for me to really get. The Art of Doing Nothing. It’s an incredible gift to give yourself, not in the energy of avoidance, but in the spirit of slowing down and being present. What it can look like is giving yourself spaciousness for more than just a few minutes. Taking time on a regular basis to step out of the human activity of doership. It reminds me of the message in the Bible that Sundays are a day of rest. One day a week, or maybe two or three days if you haven’t done it in a while, is immensely beneficial to the whole beingness. Integration is smoother, easier when we create space in life to be still. Lay aside your to do list. Everything will be there when you come back to it.

One of my spiritual teachers gave me the homework once to just stare at a wall. I thought it was one of the strangest things to say. But the activity and energy of doership is rampant in the human life. It was mine, and may be for many of you. It is one of the ego personality’s strongest tools of separation. It thinks it is protecting and serving the life but is rooted in beliefs that are not true, such as ‘I’m not enough’ or ‘If only I do this, accomplish this, I will be good enough, my life will be ____. Fill in the blank with whatever fits for you, perfect, happy, successful…

Stepping out of human doerrship is a moment by moment and choice by choice practice. It is an incredible gift to give yourself because it’s in the moments of stillness where we feel aligned more with our True Nature, all that we are.

Master the art of stillness a little bit more. My teacher first introduced me to this over 15 years ago and the mastery is still expanding. You all know how to do this because it’s already within you. The Soul’s natural way of being is stillness until it knows to act.

In deep Love everpresent
