In any moment you can become the loving witnessβit's why we sit in meditation. We learn to sit with both heartbreak and loveβwith whatever arises. We become the loving witness of it all. What channel do you turn to amidst the joy and sorrows? With mindful loving awareness we can see it all anew. When we see with amazement, with loving awareness, we also see with the heart.
As Mary Oliver writes:
"And therefore I look upon everything
as a brotherhood and a sisterhood....
and I think of each life as a flower, as common
as a field daisy, and as singular....
and each body a lion of courage, and something
precious to the earth.
When itβs over, I want to say all my life
I was a bride married to amazement...."

Feel the sensation of sound touching the body. And notice it. Name it if you like. Feel its energy with mindful loving awareness. And when it passes, return back to the breath. β Jack Kornfield π¬οΈ
With warmth and wisdom, Jack Kornfield invites us to bring a gentle, loving awareness to the body. Instead of resisting or tightening around strong sensations, we learn to hold them with kindnessβallowing the body to unwind and open in its own natural way. No fixing, no forcingβjust meeting each moment with a compassionate presence and letting the body return to its own rhythm of ease and balance.
πΏ Rest in awareness. Breathe with kindness. Let the body unfold.
