There comes a time in our lives when what our bones need is deep rest. What our hearts need is an open field to play and roam and be. Yet our minds keep us grinding at the wheel of productivity and cage in our hearts, so that we look acceptable to the world and to ourselves.
We must do, we can’t just be.
But if we don’t stop and be, we are going to break.
It is difficult to stop and rest because of the millions of things going on in our life. So we tend to find imitations for rest, like drinking alcohol to calm down so we can push through our schedule. In this episode, we will go through the be STILL process, and identify a way we may choose to fake rest, let it go (if we desire), and then listen to our souls as I read this passage:

Heaven does nothing: its non-doing is its serenity.
Earth does nothing: its non-doing is its rest.
From the union of these two non-doings
All actions proceed,
All things are made....
All beings in their perfection
Are born of non-doing.
Hence it is said:
"Heaven and earth do nothing
Yet there is nothing they do not do."
-Excerpt from "Perfect Joy", by Chuang Tzu
