Find Inner Stability and Flow with Life

We can open ourselves to the silence within us and find an inner stability that radically changes our perception of life and makes us open to welcoming the flow of life.

The Movements of Life

Sometimes we lose ourselves in the movements of life. We then feel like a feather in the wind, tossed about by difficult emotions, our own desires, encounters with people or the demands that life places on us. Constantly in motion or even inner turmoil, without ever feeling like we have arrived.

Life means change. Constant change is taking place both in our inner and outer worlds. A coming and going of thoughts, feelings, sensations, encounters, conversations, situations, demands, actions, noises, images.

The Longing to Come Home

This constant game of life is wonderful, exciting and enriching. But focusing solely on continuous change is exhausting. It can feel like drifting around in a boat on the high seas without an anchor. Intense and turbulent. Sometimes disorienting. Sometimes confusing and threatening. Sometimes overwhelming and lonely. We lose ourselves in the movements of life. And then there is our longing for peace and tranquillity, for relaxation, for security and stability, for contact, for being – the longing to “come home”.

But how can we “be” in the midst of constant change and movement? How can we stand in the middle of life and be “at home” at the same time? By rediscovering our inner stability. By getting in touch with ourselves on a deep level. By recognising our dimension of being – the stillness within us that is always there. By embracing the dimension within us that is eternally unchanging and stable.

Anchored in the Silence of our Consciousness

Beneath our emotions, the thoughts and resistance of our mind, and through a deep letting go into our whole being, we can discover a quality that is silent and at peace with what life has in store for us right now. We can open ourselves to an inner space of silence that is not disturbed by thoughts, emotions or sensations. A space of stillness that embraces life. A stillness that feels like ‘coming home’ because it is part of us. Because we are stillness.

Experiencing this dimension of silence and inner stability can radically change our perception of life. We can embody this living silence more and more with our whole being. Then there is an alert presence here and now. A presence with what is. A wide openness to life. From a place of inner silence, we encounter the movements of life. Connected with a joy of being and anchored in ourselves.
