Monday Motivation Just Being
Just being, allow your self to focus on the rock in the picture for just a a few moments. That might be all it takes to calm the mind.
For me going to the beach and just focusing on a rock, the water or just the horizon brings my mind to stillness.
It allows me, as Eckhart discussed last week on the second class on a New Earth Telecast.
"To be in the world not of the world"
The simple tool Eckhart used to bring ourselves into the present moment is to just go to our breath, taking our attention away from the thinking mind.
Now we bring our awareness just to our breath. So stop for just 10 seconds and just focus on the breath- this gives our minds a break.
The words below are snippets from both Oprah and Eckhart that caught my attention as I watched and listened last week, to Chapter 2: Ego: The current state of humanity.
When you lose stuff, then you can become free of the ego.
Manifestation is to come to acceptance of what is now.
Gratitude is also important
Find the place of acceptance,
Who we think we are it is no more than a bundle of thoughts-
ARE YOU READY TO AWAKEN?
"Allowing yourself to be fed from within- it is about being aware being in touch with the body."

I find the beach such a beautiful reminder to just be. Especially quiet beaches around sunset.
My daughter also has an ‘imaginary’ friend called Koala, and Koala is a constant reminder to be happy in the tree we’re in now. Not the tree we’ve come from and not the tree we’re going to, but THIS tree, NOW.
Thanks for sharing the Koala story, we can learn so much from children.
Just wanna say hi and thanks for the reminder.
Playing the last few holes of a round of golf on my own as the last of the warm summer evening sun sinks low in the sky. The peace and well being is overwhelming and I can just BE. Thinking of that now has lifted my spirits. Thanks Suzie.
Your comment supports what I see the highway being, this post seems to have provided reflection for many.
This makes me want to take a deep breath and just be, in that moment you let go of the day’s worries and stress.
Produces great relaxing thoughts - for me.
thanks Suzie
