keeping calm : finding still point

After I posted my last post I thought that maybe calm is just the way to go.. to hold a stillpoint in the midst of turmoil… when I did my cranio sacral treatments to deal with past trauma there was a place that could be reached in the midst of the holding when the cerebra spinal fluid reached a point of equilibrium and balance that was called just that : stillpoint..

I love the sense of still point when it occurs in my day, often in the early afternoon as I settle down in peace, after possibly having caught the lines of a poem floating across my imagination..I love and revel in that sense of peace I gain in watching the leaves blow on the trees or the play of light of the sun’s ray fall across my wooden floorboards, illuminating the patterns on my Persian carpet…it is at this time of the day that my heart can so often feel at peace and as though the cares of the world have disappeared and yet that time loneliness may steal in too just as a little shadow.. today I had the thought to keep my heart as centred in peace and love as I can….and that in the midst of these times of turmoil its important where we put our focus….

I will stay in the peace this afternoon.. I made it up with my friend I had words with earlier.. that makes my heart feel more at peace.. outside of all of the drama of my reactions, triggers, associations and past memories is a place of peace and one for all of us that rises up when we go with the flow of the moment and reach deeply in to find ways of touching stillpoint.
