Free of Gravity | by Madisyn Taylor As earthbound beings, humans have always had a fascination with winged creatures of all kinds. The idea of being able to spontaneously lift off from the earth and fly is so compelling to us that we invented airplanes and helicopters and myriad other flying machines in order to provide ourselves with the many gifts of being airborne. Flying high in the sky, we look down on the earth that is our home and see things from an entirely different perspective. We can see more, and we can see farther than we can when we're on the ground. As if all this weren't enough, the out-of-this-world feeling of freedom that comes with groundlessness inspires us to want to take flight again and again. Metaphorically, we take flight whenever we break free of the gravity that holds us to a particular way of thinking or feeling or being. We take flight mentally when we rise above our habitual ways of thinking about things and experience new insights. This is what it means to open our minds. Emotionally, we take flight when the strength of our passion exceeds the strength of our blockages; the floodgates open and we are free to feel fully. Spiritually we take flight when we locate that part of ourselves that is beyond the constraint of linear time and the world of form. It is in this place that we experience the essential boundlessness that defines the experience of flight. Taking flight is always about freeing ourselves from form, if only temporarily. When we literally fly, in a plane or on a hang glider, we free ourselves from the strength of gravity's pull. As we open our minds and our hearts, we free ourselves from habitual patterns of thought and emotional blockages. As we remember our true nature, we free ourselves from identification with the temporary state of our physical forms. The more we stretch our wings, the clearer it becomes that taking flight is a state of grace that simply reminds us of who we really are. | DailyOM Course Spotlight by Marcella Friel If you're someone who struggles with excess weight and food habits that don't serve your highest good, chances are you're already under a lot of stress: from taking care of others at the expense of your own well-being; from internalized shame, anger, and regret; and from life circumstances that always seem to feel like an emergency. The problem is if you're following restrictive diets and punishing exercise regimens without addressing the core stressors that run your life, losing weight will always feel like an endless uphill battle. You lose a little, it comes right back. You're "good" with your food, then go "off the wagon" when the going gets tough. But what if you could relax your way to weight loss and body love? Impossible, you say? In my observation, relaxation is the key to holistic, sustainable weight loss and body love. When the body gives itself permission to relax, the hormonal system becomes a finely tuned metabolic orchestra, and those extra pounds receive blessings and permission to say goodbye for good. This course will show you a path to body peace that runs deeper than weight loss. Top 10 DailyOM Courses 1. Tone and Strengthen Your Legs in 14 Days 2. Go Sleeveless in 14 Days 3.
