Hey there, happy everything (Groundhog Day, Imbolc, Full Moon, Monday, life, breath)

It was a really pleasant experience to do a group meditation today and feel my nervous system completely soften. What a difference 15-20 minutes made, simply by greeting the body and being with stillness, with quiet, with slow, steady breathing. A real gift to the whole self.

Today’s reading from The Calm Way: 365-Day Journey Out of the Weeds & Into the Wilds of True Inner Freedom

When we look at Life as experiments in Being, things change. We find a more effortless stride and are less rattled.

No matter how extensive, grand, big, or bad the experiment, we can stay loose and open. From planetary collective agreements to solo ones, there isn’t much to get riled up about unless you are attached to things operating in a specific way.

Humans forget this spaciousness. We arrived in the density and heaviness of Earth to experiment with forgetting and remembering. It’s a challenge to stay loose and open when the program says otherwise.

The experiment is happening consciously or unconsciously. Test the Calm Way and find out if it is trustworthy.

Journal or contemplation prompt: What is it like to stay loose and open without expectation of outcomes?

  1. Pick up the book on Amazon.com or other retailers.

  2. Schedule a personal session with me if you’d like support in getting out of the weeds and into true inner freedom.

Until next time,

Andrea Mai
