Open to fear

March 30, 2011

Good Morning,

Everything is easier when we connect in, especially practicing fearlessness.

…The everyday practice is simply to develop a complete acceptance and openness

to all situations and emotions.

And to all people – experiencing everything totally without reservations and blockages, so that one never withdraws or centralizes onto one’s self.

Lie in Savasana (Corpse Pose). Place and eye pillow of a towel over your eyes. Let the ground receive you, feeling the support of ground below. With each out breath let more and more of your weight sink into the floor. With the support of the ground below, surrender. Open and become aware of breath, body, sensation, tender heart.

Celebrate the tender heart of the warrior today. Be fearless as you greet your day. Remember, fearlessness is simply the willingness to open to fear, acknowledging it directly, in its subtlety and intensity.
