I learned many years ago, that I will not be free before I am willing to feel everything. This was my then, spiritual teacher, that popped his head into the classroom and said the very simple sentence that stuck with me. Practicing the willingness to feel everything has been a part of my journey for many years. And just recently at a Water & People Retreat in Sweden, I understood, that after this, comes being willing to share everything. To be completely transparent, vulnerable, and pure-hearted. This is what I practice.

Good morning my friends and welcome to this day 247 out of 365 days It's a beautiful beautiful morning.

I am quite tired on upon having woken up like at four o'clock this morning And really just being open to whatever is In here and out there So let's As always just be happy that we can be here And that we are still Present and able to practice Good morning to you all Robert,

Tosca,

Ines,

Kristi,

Summerstar,

Jessie,

Linda And everybody else listening in watching Now or later So let's just start with some soft breathing Just noticing your in-breath and noticing your out-breath And as we've practiced so many times before just once again practice Just being with what is and not adding stories or labels to it.

So the word tired points towards a experience of a heavy body or Contraction and happiness would point towards a bubbly sensation in the stomach or chest But without words just to connect with what is inside of us right now Slow soft calm in-breath Slow soft calm out-breath Nowhere to go always here Relaxing those shoulders Relaxing your mind your eyes the jaw Really just be impressed with what is Let that air really Caress you Let it be soft and gentle and really Really connect with your in-breath really let go of any stories or thoughts or Anything else that brings you Away from this sensation in your body and your emotions right now but what if what I'm feeling right now is too intense and too heavy or What if I just want to move away from it?

What if I don't want to be present in my body and don't want to feel the emotions that I'm feeling?

Well We always have the ability to Change our focus Do something else?

Eat something drink something see something and we can actually do that for years and decades Eventually it's gonna Not necessarily get worse But it's still gonna be there and it's like having a Small stone in a shoe that it might not bother you to start out with To begin with You might get used to the pain even so much that you don't really notice it anymore because you become so numb but understanding that stopping to locate the small stone or the pain and Start letting go Just a little bit every day it helps and I'm applying any tool that I have any method any way to alleviate pain that I can and last couple of days we've had some Not so good news that make my emotions really come to Existence when I just share with you and probably also the reason why I woke up that early What really dawned on me this morning was that I'd need not suffer Because the pain is not on me.

I am feeling the suffering because my heart is connected to that person's heart and even when I say this my voice is trembling and I'm Experiencing tears in my eyes and I'm deciding to Willingly feel it and I'm deciding to willingly share it Because that's what we're supposed to do as humans So allowing the tears and allowing the pain And also really understand it this morning that I need not suffer.

I need to help As much as I can this person And that the tears help That sharing helps That no none of us benefit anything from playing the game of pretending to be fine When we're not That's just suppressing That's just being something that we're not None of us are meant to be perfect.

It doesn't exist we just meant meant to be friends and family and Souls to each other But what if I can't stop crying I've heard people ask me Well,

I went eventually we will There's only so many tears inside of us Eventually it will release what needs to be released And that will give space to even more love And it will also give space to even more pain But understanding that the pain is not bad The pain we feel is love And it's a part of the whole thing We cannot choose one And only have that So this is what we can do for each other It's just to listen and to share and I've heard it over and over and over again and People sharing that when I open and when I share it It's life-changing And even especially men That go into this fixing mode Slowly start learning that the only thing we need to do is to listen and it's not only it's a it's the most important thing it's a big thing to be able to just listen and And be there with hugs and kisses or not even words So it's to allow everything To be willing to feel everything And to be willing to share everything That's definitely been my My step these last couple of months especially on the last retreat in sweden It just opened up and I didn't intend to you know,

It just happens when i'm with you here now Because I want it to happen and well obviously unconsciously But I also do hope to inspire That whatever pain you might be holding that you that you share So,
