We, Like The Mother Of The World,

With The First Out Breath, You Are Releasing Worries, Plans, Mental Tensions. With The Second Out Breath, You Are Releasing Physical Tightness And Tension. With The Third Out Breath, You Are Releasing Difficult Emotions.

We're So Used To Presenting Ourselves And Getting Approval According To Our Achievements That It's Difficult To Be Authentic And Trust That We'll Be Accepted Just As We Are.

I Would Say Both Western Psychology And Eastern Paths Would Recognize That We Get Caught Up In Feeling Like A Separate Self And An Unworthy Self.

With An Undefended Heart, We Can Fall In Love With Life Over And Over Every Day. We Can Become Children Of Wonder, Grateful To Be Walking On Earth, Grateful To Belong With Each Other And To All Of Creation. We Can Find Our True Refuge In Every Moment, In Every Breath.

Unless We're Completely Awake, Have A Degree Of That. We Tense Against Love And Hold On In A Way That Doesn't Let It Flow. When That's Really Strong, The Key Piece To Freeing Our Hearts Is Self-compassion.
