THE PLEASURE OF STAYING IN THE BODY
The Pleasure of Staying In The Body
Begin where the body already feels willing
Carry this with you
Staying with the body as the day loosens
Letting the day down
Arriving without explanation
Weight releases on its own
Breath slows without request
Rest While Awake
Pausing without leaving the body
Pausing without sleeping
Attention softens
Still, and inside
Rest that does not pull you away
Evening as a Gentle Edge
Crossing without ceremony
Light leaves the muscles
The day loosens
Silence widens
Sleep without compromises made
Letting night arrive
Preparing the ground
Waiting without strategy
Drift is allowed
Night receives
Nothing to Improve
Staying counts.
No direction is demanded
No outcome is expected
The body remains present
Presence is sufficient
