New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
| We're between Lammas and Mabon. It's easy to think in black-and-white, absolute terms: Summer's over. The sun's gone. Only darkness lies ahead. Let's pause today and find our balance.
Find a bench in a public place and sit for a while. Be fully present and attentive. Notice the details of what is happening around you; see what has been taken for granted or overlooked. Slow down the turn of the seasons with complete awareness and appreciation of the beauty that surrounds you. Enjoy the flowers and greenery, and smile at people. Delight in summer dresses and shorts. Laugh with the kids playing, still free from school for a few more days. These long moments of attention will slow down time, as if you have slipped between the worlds. Let go of worry and attachment. Release your judgments. Become attuned to the miracle of this moment, and find your balance. |
