Consciously Speaking

In today's meditation, guided by Michael Neeley, you will be treated to conscious poetry from Carl Jung, Ed Brown, Victor Frankl, Jennifer Paine Welwood, and a surprise author. Here are a few of the pieces that are included: Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart.Who looks outside dreams. Who looks inside, awakens. ~ Carl Jung Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space lies our freedom and power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and freedom. ~ Victor Frankl Now I take the time to peel potatoes, wash lettuce and boil beets, to scrub floors, clean sinks, and empty trash.Absorbed in the everyday, I find time to unbind, unwind, to invite the whole body, mind, breath, thought, and wild impulse to join, to bask in the task.No time lost thinking that somewhere else is better. No time lost imagining getting more elsewhere. No way to tell this moment does not measure up.Hand me the spatula: now is the time to taste what is. ~ Ed Brown Please be sure
