    Everyday Awareness #5

    How to get out of your head!

    Up next in the Everyday Awareness series: a quick and easy way to get out of your head—and back into your body.

    You can do it when you’re stressed or anxious or ruminating or freaking out… and it will make you feel better.

    And when I say quick… I mean SUPER quick!

    This one works. And it won’t even take you a full minute!

    If so. Then so. Just so.

    Revisiting the Present Moment

    A few articles back, I wrote about The Death of the Now. About Einstein’s discoveries on the nature of time and space… And their devastating impact on traditional spirituality.

    And I got a lot of feedback from people hoping to show me HOW EASY IT IS to center my awareness in the here and now…

    Apparently, while I was poking holes in the old-fashioned INTERPRETATIONS of abiding spiritual experience, I didn’t do enough to validate the EXPERIENCE ITSELF.

    So let’s pick up the present moment again… This time, from an experiential perspective. And explore some of the profound insights and liberating changes that come from being present.

    (And then I’ll stab a few more holes in it at the end. Just for fun!)

    The Paradox of Connection and Community

    So there’s this thing that happens, as you get wiser and deeper and more and more awesome…

    You become more capable of CONNECTING.

    You explore. You grow. You change. And all of those things create layers of complexity and depth… Layers that you can share with other people.

    But… And here’s the shitty part… All that awesomeness also makes you DIFFERENT. And so it gets harder and harder to find people to connect WITH.

    Because we all get deeper in our own unique way.

    And that creates a frustrating dilemma…

    As YOU get deeper—your circle of friends gets smaller…
