Just Join In | Their Knowing Bodies
https://theirknowingbodies.wordpress.com/2015/12/19/just-join-in
Early last year I considered shaving my head and moving to Nova Scotia. I had “met” Pema Chödrön. Our assignment was to think of a specific area in our lives where we could soften and surrender. Something I have been thinking about a lot lately is my habit of wanting to be right and have my way. I’ve been especially thinking about it as I prepare to visit family for the holidays.

Same, Same | Their Knowing Bodies
https://theirknowingbodies.wordpress.com/2015/11/29/same-same
If you can practice even in distraction, you are well-trained. 8212; Lojong slogan. Every time I drive up it’s the same. Sweaty palms, a slight feeling of dread. I tell myself, “You don’t have to jump. You can turn around right now. Or you can stay and watch. No one will give you a hard time, and if they do, who cares? The physical sensations and anxieties are a lot like what I experienced last week during the group teach of the donation class. Tami Hackbarth. Said it would feel like:. Just like teaching...

Spiral | Their Knowing Bodies
https://theirknowingbodies.wordpress.com/2015/11/04/spiral
Going on means going far, going far means returning. 8211; Tao Te Ching. Bodies are amazing. My body, your body, every body is amazing. The ways these instruments receive and send out energy information is astounding. This week in TT we learned about twisting this instrument during asana to keep it mobile and healthy. Before I get to that, though, I want to talk about an involuntary twist that happens in your body…in your eye! A few weeks ago I attempted to read a book called Physics in Mind. She goes on...

Just Visiting | Their Knowing Bodies
https://theirknowingbodies.wordpress.com/2015/11/23/just-visiting
If those who are like wanton children. Are by nature prone to injure others,. What point is there in being angry —. Like resenting fire for its heat? And if their faults are fleeting and contingent,. If living beings are by nature wholesome,. It’s likewise senseless to resent them —. As well be angry at the sky for having clouds! The Way of the Bodhisattva. This week in TT we listened to an interview with writer Sharon Salzberg. Just keep an eye on them so they don’t start running your show. Either IR...

Tiny Bones | Their Knowing Bodies
https://theirknowingbodies.wordpress.com/2015/08/16/tiny-bones
8220;In our bodies, it is bodies we love, and oh, faces, bright particular faces —. How hard it is to have our last glimpse of a face we have come to expect to see.”. Barbara Du Bois, Light Years. Near the restrooms of the Oak Park Brewery hangs a framed bat skeleton. The bones look so fragile, they are almost translucent. It’s hard to believe the little bat could withstand even a slight breeze, let alone speed through the twilight sky, graciously eating those damn mosquitoes. That’s when I got int...
