Why Head and Heart Together?

For years now I have been looking for ways to share with others the benefits I have gained from my spiritual practice. I hesitate to limit it to just that because the way I feel about spiritual practice is that is about how to live.

We live in these bodies yet mostly live in our heads. The way we think about the world is how the world is. If we change the way we think about the world – we change the world. It is more about our relationship to how we are living our lives.

There is no set formula for living. But if we can live with more compassion and understanding them we can make the life a better place for all. This is the practice. It is not about just going with the flow, or conventional wisdom, or keeping up with the Jones’.

Life is about taking in the bad with the good. Not wanting to annihilate or avoid the things we hate and only having the things we like and love.

That is why we will want to bring the head and heart together. So that we can live life fully and make our lives and the lives of others just a bit easier to be with.
