Pure Presence
Holding, Offering & Being Presence
... within Yourself & for Others
 On any given day I may receive several emails from family, friends and colleagues which speak to their level of stress or worry given the times we are living in. My response is often something like, "Please take good care of yourself. These ARE challenging times." An act of self-care, of self-compassion, is an act of presence.
Today, I'm culling a video from my archives that offers a bit of sage advice about how to kindly take care of ourselves in a moment of difficulty, a moment of suffering. Suffering is experienced anytime we are disconnected from our calm, clear, wise self. I hope this message with a practice helps restore your equanimity as you tenderly care for yourself in the midst of any challenge you might be facing.

Forever a cherished strategy, thanks to your guidance, Girl! I've been using it more than ever in the past half-year, naturally, and have tweaked it a tiny bit: now my acknowledgement of a moment of suffering shifts like this: "Oh! Okay, a jab of anxiety is rising here ..." rather than "I am anxious". It's an Ani Pema strategy I need to bless meself! Leave a Reply. |
