A moment fully tasted - Resisting nothing

A complete experience of the present moment..
That is what embodiment is..
Its a fully felt, fully tasted, fully savoured moment
And that is a practice..
There is one question that is worth asking oneself in ever moment
'Am I Opening or Closing to this moment?'
Are you surrendered to what life is presenting through you?Or is there a resisting and closing into story, thought, physical tightness?
Subtle or gross
Resistance is an innate part of life
We will meet it
Resistance is a default of human
To maintain the sense of self
Embodiment is a practice of our relationship with this moment
Resistance and collapse - or choosing love/consciousness and opening
Several times a day I am recognizing myself closing to moments that are appearing
Sometimes very obvious closing and sometimes In sneaky ways like thought, or making myself busy with something
To avoid feeling,
I choose thought
To protect myself..
Not feeling or being fully is what the Buddha called being a sleep
The notion that the future will arrive, gives us the sense that I am going somewhere
When I achieve this love, this amount of money, this body yada yada I will have the peace I desire
It creates a future, which we live by
The masculine in us asks 'What problem am I going to solve today?'
It is something els to let go and be in this moment fully
And that is embodiment
Earlier today I was cleaning a space for preparing a ritual
Two out the four of us that was preparing the space was not there
I found myself questioning if I owed it to myself to be in resistance to them, being out eating ice cream
And asked myself this question..
Am I opening or closing to this moment? And what do I actually want..
I choose to embody and thus incarnate in this moment as being in service..
And asked how could serve this moment to love fully..
And did..And guess what, it felt great..It was a dawning moment, and a teaching I have been with for the past couple of weeks..'Am I opening? or closing..?'
Are you embodied in this moment fully or are you protecting yourself subtly or gross
In service of love
