BEING WITH SENSATION

Contact a physical sensation without judgement. 
Don't think about the sensation, don't analyse it, just be with it.
You didn't create it. 
You are not responsible for it.
It is not your fault.
You did nothing wrong.
It is not your job to heal it, fix it, get rid of it, or even work out 'why' it is there.
It is not personal, like the morning birdsong, or the roar of traffic outside your window.
Know less. Feel more. 
Commit to the moment.
Come out of the story of past, with its guilt and regret.
Come out of the story of future, with its fear and anticipation. 
Feel the raw sensation now in the body, life in its purest form, a dance of energy.
It is here for a moment.
Honour its fleeting appearance.
Be the space for the sensation, its container, its presence, its warm embrace.
It is not your enemy, and it may be your greatest teacher.
