Have You Ever Thought, "On No, Not This Too", Well Try This Practice.....

So, today is THIS TOO day. We all have a tendency to push away much of
what is showing up in our day, lives, communities, world. THIS TOO
practice is to notice whatever is showing up with the mantra, "THIS TOO" as in, "this too is a part of my experience." It's really a practice of
inclusion, of acceptance of whatever is arising in the moment.
Remember, acceptance of what is arising does not imply a passive
acquiescence to the greed, hatred and delusion in our inner and outer
worlds. But, it is about having an honest, open, and spacious
relationship with what is happening, noticing our inner reactions,
softening to them, being present for the rich spectrum of our lives.
From that place we have a much better chance to act out of compassion
and wisdom rather than reactivity and aversion. Other versions of
"THIS TOO" practice are "YES" practice, and also, "BREATHING IN
ACCEPTANCE, BREATHING OUT LETTING GO." Choose whichever...
