Take Time to Enjoy the Progress

6.45 E&M 40 mins. The exercises were difficult at first and once again I was sorely tempted to go back to bed. I felt sciatic pain in both legs (more in the right) which was uncomfortable but not debilitating.

Up until now I have learnt a great many lessons in my work with Karaj. Unfortunately I have tended to write them up and forget about them. In my eagerness to move on and learn more I have not taken the time to integrate those lessons fully into my life. This is a criticism which I level at society – we are in too much of a hurry to make progress that we never take the time to enjoy the progress we have already made. I have decided to concentrate my efforts on two major aspects of my process:

  • Self-parenting
  • Slowing down
