The Yogabliss on-line Moving into Meditation classes met this morning. We explored walking the path of the Middle Way. This is the practice of moderation which we develop by working with our aversion and craving. With relaxed awareness we can observe and feel the underlying energy of what compels us to lose our balance. We bring compassionate awareness to our inner struggles. Little by little we deepen our capacity to be present with difficulties. We become more able to offer a compassionate response to our circumstances.
We drew inspiration from our recently named 24th U.S. Poet Laureate, Ada Limon. You can hear her discuss her wonderful work in her On Being interview with Krista Tippett: To Be Made Whole.
