Resisting Rest

Interesting observations ... After being inspired by Oriah Mountain Dreamer's The Call, I invited a deeper understanding of how to balance "doing" and "resting". I recognize myself resisting rest. The ‘tapes’ that automatically 'play' in my mind point the finger at others who I feel will scold me for resting. Yet I recognize that it is really me who is scolding me. That is the mirror of truth. I can only be scolded if I allow it. I hadn't seen this scolding as an opinion before and did not fully realize that it could be released.

I also observed that resist becomes rest when 'is' has been fully accepted. When "It is what it is." is applied to 'resist', the 'is' , accepted, disappears much the same as darkness cannot exist where there is light – and then ‘resist' becomes 'rest'

In gratitude for this deeper understanding of many, many things.
With Love,
