At Ease

6/9/09

Take out the worry

lighten up with joy

dissolve those hidden stressors

quit measuring your results

change the meaning also

of old programmed assumptions

to rework inherited beliefs

quieting critical voice within

while living present moment

fully, completely, right 'Now!',

appreciating all that 'Is'

in it's miraculous form

when coming to understand

that you create worlds

through thoughts, actions, deeds,

the way you approach

any uncomfortable life experience

by resisting, or opening,

claiming your power back

from trauma trapped energy

originally enclosed for protection

against further ego harm

only to discover persistence

within our existing shadow

until light of attention

shines, exposes blind spots,

putting us at ease.
