you have to be ready for that scream. one of the tragedies of the modern western buddhism and group yoga class movement is that people are meeting their broken inner children and bodies, and have no one to be there with them when they meet the scream https://t.co/AMF5sbckDL
this is not how you were meant to meet your body. it is not how you were meant to meet yourself. there was someone meant to be there and help you the first tragedy was the first time no one was there, and it is a second tragedy if there is no one is here to meet it now
but there's something different about this second time, and it's we are adults; and there is a spaciousness, solidity, and attention adults can offer, even very sick adults, that matters to children https://t.co/FBpmIWgBdO
