ACCEPTANCE and RELEASE

I had an amazing experience this morning. I woke up, feeling some anxiety in my chest. In the rest of my body. Apart from the chest, it was mostly in my legs. But I didn’t feel any impulse to do something about it. I felt no impulse to resist it. At the same time, I could really feel my body. Really feel at home in it. My face muscles felt tense in several places. But I didn’t feel any impulse to do anything about it either.

So I just laid there and felt energies and sensations in my body. After a while, those muscle tensions that I just accepted started to relax by themselves. The anxiety was gradually replaced by a comfortable calm. Just by laying there on my back, accepting everything in the present moment and resisting nothing. 


Thoughts came and went away. The anxiety in my chest did the same. I remember thinking something like: Negative thoughts almost never have anything to do with reality. They are just words that we attach to emotional states. I didn’t think it in this exact wording. This was the spirit of what I was thinking. But as I laid there and just allowed the thoughts to pass through my head, my thoughts were not as precise as when I’m not typing them on my keyboard. 


After a while, I felt the impulse to get up. So I did, even though I still had some tension left in my body. Because I knew that if I they didn’t get released now, they still would do so later. The tensions that I’ve struggled with for years don’t matter anymore. As long as I just accept them unconditionally, they will disappear by themselves.


After having had this experience, I’m thoroughly convinced that this is the big shift that we all have to go through. The realization that everything is okay. That we don’t have to do anything about anything. We might feel that we want to do something. But we don’t ever have to force anything. And oftentimes it’s better to just let things be and they will resolve themselves. 


There is probably a lot more that I can say about this. But I’ll just let it be for now…
