Maybe the real value in meditation is more pragmatic than esoteric. Withuseit
becomes a practical tool for balancing aspects of lifestyle through emptying out ill
effects of unnecessary excess. Pausingto simplyexhaleand listenalongthemarchof
breaths reaching toward their goal, one can experience a subtle resonance within
naturalrestbeatsofdailyactivity.

Futileattempts atsolidifyingspacearecounterresilientto maintainingprogress,

unable to meet challenges ofswiftlyevolvingcircumstancewithflexiblestrength.Stiff
insistence on preimposed assumptions of some disembodied absolutewillinevitably

lose the flow of continued observation. This tends to trip up personal advancement
by enforcing unhealthy reliance on external abstracts, missing the greater
interrelatednessofthings.

Matter and energy are intertwined. Healing is engaging motion able to bridge
artificial blockages obstructing occurrences of advantageous awareness. Perhaps
what meditating in various forms active and passive allows, is a chance to revisit the
many instances of spontaneous exchangethatfilleverydaylife,linked throughdiverse
sensationsoftakinginandlettinggo.
