Staying With The Unflowing

Trying to change, well it just makes things… Accepting lovingly the felt experience of an awkward and unfulfilling practice, emotion, habit, reaction… This is the only way. Pushing or pulling on some "unwanted" aspect of oneself gives more life to that. Accepting the whole of the unfolding, horizontal practice, its source, its physical manifestation, its felt sense, AND DOING NOTHING about it, just being with it, connecting with it is the way. Things integrate and loose power or gain power from this way of being. In my case: relax my belly in place of tensely holding it in and therefore holding my chest out–my current practices of unneeded tenseness. Oh, and allow my knees to bend, therefore allowing my waist to stay flexible rather than flexed. An unintended and unflowing consequences of tenseness.
