Minute Meditations

To finally surrender ourselves to healing, we must have three spaces opened within us—and all at the same time: our opinionated head, our closed-down heart, and our defensive and defended body

The absolute genius of the Twelve Steps is that it refuses to bless and reward what looks like any moral worthiness game or mere heroic willpower.

Those who can be present with head, heart, and body at the same time will always encounter the Presence, whether they call it God or not.

Religion’s main job is to reconnect us (re-ligio) to the Whole, to ourselves, and to one another—and thus heal us.

Letting go is not in anybody’s program for happiness, and yet all mature spirituality, in one sense or another, is about letting go and unlearning.
