We can measure our lives by how we show up. In the end, there is very little to what we think and feel if it does not create some action. Our physiology and neural networks function this way as does the whole of life. The funny part is that we think we have a complete understanding of what motion looks and feels like. We get stuck because we believe if the action does not show up the way we think it should it is not happening. We presume to think that just because we do not see it, it is not there. God encourages us to pay close attention to what motion in our hearts is like. It is not something we are inclined to look for unless it is something that literally takes away our breath in either a good or harmful way. Yet there is energetic movement present in the whole of our being. There is motion happening all the time but we rely mostly on what we can see with our eyes. Learning to open ourselves up to what it means to detect motion in a holistic sense can provide the balm needed for a troubled mind. Energy is constantly in motion. Our hearts have a particular sensitivity to that which we cannot see because it does not need to be filtered through the need to understand and put language to that the mind requires. The breath, the rhythm, and the subtlety to which our hearts are attuned are always there to be present with the motion as it is flowing through us when we choose to avail ourselves of it.
