New York City's Penn Station
After a second time through the Sedona Method Foundational Training
with my good friend and colleague David Ellzey,
I’m sitting here waiting to catch a train on the Long Island Railroad
to go out to see another amazing colleague,
chiropractic kinesiologist Dr. Steven Silverman.
During the course of the training,
I released lots of emotional “stuff”.
We really pulled stuff out by the “roots”.
It really felt like we did a lot of “deep weed eating”
of old emotional and mental issues.
Most of the time in my life,
I’m wanting to “Be Productive”,
especially on the road.
I do a lot of traveling, and I really try to use the “down time”
as efficiently as possible.
But on this day, in this moment,
I don’t want to do anything.
I am totally relaxed.
Nothing is bothering me.
All I want to do is just sit.
My mind is silent.
Like I’ve learned in other trainings,
this experience is referred to as “wide-angle vision”,
where one just sits and takes everything in
without thought or judgment.
There’s a (possibly homeless) man sitting next to me,
sleeping and snoring.
There’s a “crazy” woman, having a conversation
with herself and laughing out loud hysterically.
There are people talking on their iPhones
and playing video games on their Droids.
Thousands of people coming and going,
nonstop announcements over the loudspeaker.
The multitude of senses that is New York City.
And I feel like an Ocean of Calm.
I am totally chilled out, my mind silent,
alone but not lonely.
There is no urge to do anything.
I feel calm and quiet on the inside,
even with the complete chaos swirling around me.
It’s like an open-eyed meditation in the world.
No internal pressure or rush (finally!).
Totally satisfied to just sit here.
Not having to do something . . . or anything.
Calm.
Peace.
Just Being.
