Day +447 – Activity levels & fear
I have noticed recently how I avoid feeling my pain and emotions by staying busy; even to the extent that I spend so much time on my new website and other techno goodies.
I don’t want to over analyze this, but I definitely notice the trend towards not feeling, like all of us, by “numbing out”. That is probably why I was so attracted to yoga, massage, and other physical activities that helped to “ground” me. Otherwise, I would continue to spiral in my head (like most Aquarians) and “spin out”.
To be aware of ourselves in action is not “half the battle”, but the whole “war”. Follow your breath and awareness comes into being, and thus fear is eliminated and we accept “what is”. Pain and suffering take on a completely different meaning and are no more.
P.S. For fun, click here to play a song that is SO very appropriate for me: I’m Not The Man I Used To Be
