Surrender

Some days I have the sensation of pressure slowly boiling inside me. How can I release this feeling? What is it to surrender in subtle ways — to touch my back against the rest of a chair, to relax my arms and give someone a hug, to place a plate on the dinner table with ease. Is it that simple?

The pressure comes from all the resistance that piles up, until it becomes thick and heavy. Can I release the pressure in little ways? Can I bring more grace and ease to my daily life, in the way I speak, in the way I walk, in the way I listen to others?

Notice all the pressure you are holding, and see how you can release it by surrendering in simple ways throughout your day.
