Richard Carlson, bringing the super-simple wisdom today:
Slow down for a moment and get your noggin round this:
- All you ever actually get is Now
- Every Now moment is peace, overlaid with mental commentary
- See through the commentary - which is just a meaningless recording
- Experience the peace, Here and Now
- Live a peaceful life, whatever the circumstances.
That's the essence of the Innate Health understanding.
Try it right now: wherever you are, whatever is going on for you at the moment… just relax out of all the me, me, me stories the mind is creating, breathe and be.
Present.
See how easy that is?
It's the opposite of ‘doing’ – there's literally no effort required. No rules, no dogma, no rituals, just relaxing out of the commentary, and back into life itself.
You carry that with you, ‘all the time’.
Ain't nothing taking that away from you, my friend – peace be with you!
There's a reason why my favourite Richard Carlson book is called You Can Be Happy, No Matter What.
