Soul stretching, what a wonderful metaphor for living our lives fully. If you haven’t visited Rita Kowats blog “Spirituality without Borders” I highly recommend it.
Our attempts at self-protection
cause us to live
in a cramped corner of our lives.Frank Ostaseski “A Friend until the End”
Lion’s Roar July 2018
Senescence has overtaken my back, but I am releasing pain and regaining flexibility by doing PNF stretches and swimming. Compared to five months ago, I am literally a walking miracle. I often meditate in the water, where this analogy came to me.
Stretching
A miracle for the back
Why not for the soul?
Pull push
Pull push
Breathing out ego
Breathing in light
Synced simultaneous soul-stretches
Creating space for the divine.
