Excess Baggage: Much ‘To-Do’
Ralph Garn, Syracuse, NY
Practice begins … ‘rocking motion’ …
‘Soles of the feet’, ‘tan tien’ …
‘To-dos’ of yesterday and tomorrow die …
Excess baggage/heaviness gives way to lightness of ‘now’ …
Past is ‘passed’ …
A new glow soothes body/mind …
Freedom of movement without thought …
Activity becomes ‘non-doing’ acceptance of what is …
Letting go, tension ceases …
CHI roams through all I am …
Receiving vessel in JOY!
