Walking each other home

My whole life seems to be about healing. Healing as in wholeness. Healing as in holiness. There must be a link to those words. To me, they mean the same thing. Being free of anything that distorts the  purest potential of I. All of us at some point have lost a connection to ourselves, our sense of freedom, joy, and peace. It could have been an abrupt and very traumatic event or it could have been slow, gradual, so that you hardly noticed at all - though one day you see you are not as happy as you used to be. You might not remember ever being really happy. Our life is somehow smaller. We may avoid situations or people. We may not be able to follow through on things we want to do. A disconnection from ourselves comes in many forms. Many symptoms. Illness. Accidents. Sadness. Poor self-esteem.

There is a way home. Home is peace inside yourself. A safe place. A place you want to hang out.
We are all just walking each other home.

Listen to the body. It talks all the time. Listen to the unanswered calls of the body. Learn to get in touch with the felt sense of your body. Listen to it breathe. On inhalation letting the breath flow deliciously inward. On exhalation let the breath fall out of the body. Just watch. Anything you notice is worthy of your attention. Watch and notice purely. Do not comment or try to figure anything out. Just be.
