Openhand is out there with you Jen - you're in our hearts <3

Just one thing 'spiked' in what you said...

"I know it's not about doing...but if it's about being then it comes down to slowing down, tuning in".

There are two ways of 'doing' things: one that comes from the mind, and one that comes from the flow, where being is fully expressed in the doing. Direct right action from the ray 1, is also being! The centre of the storm is absolutely still, yet from that place, it is doing very strongly - it is being a powerful expression of movement.

I observe in the spiritual mainstream there is still very much the confusion that 'being' means doing nothing!

In authentic, pure being, there is always still movement of some kind - is the Universe ever stationary? Wherever there is something phenomenal, where there is something manifest - such as thoughts, feelings and emotions for example - then there is always relativity, and from that, some kind of movement, even if subtle. The stationary part is the absolute pure presence that transcends all - attained through the eye of the storm.

So find the eye of the storm inside yourself. Personally I find it a very cool, calm, collected place, beyond any attachment to a particular action or resistance to one, beyond all emotion. There's no fear, just complete acceptance. Neither is it accepting anything goes. It could also accept strongly direct action.

In this place, the Universe will surely guide right action.
I know it's not easy to be in this place - you have to keep unwinding tightness into it - just as we've been doing all this time. But the mirror is now strong. And therefore the illusion can readily drop away.

I know you'll find the right course of action in your heart.

We're all with you.

Open *OK*
