There’s something deeply nourishing to be willing to sit with ourselves in the discomfort without attempting to fix it.
I notice myself on heightened alert after several days of intermittent fasting.
This is not a state that I’m particularly used to after several years of engaging in “the work.”
From this place, I feel it as shedding of the old.
In Buddhism it would be seen as samskaras releasing.
They’ve served and there’s no resistance or clinging so they can slough off the field - dissolve into the nothingness they always were.
Once upon a time, I would’ve called this anxiety and worked to discharge it.
There is tremendous liberation in being with it and letting it work itself through - the leaf floating along the river of life.
