Sometimes things are more up in the air than usual. When they are, we’re living on the edge—pushed too fast for what we can do, nerves are frayed. And when we don’t get it done, we wonder, then what?—and don’t know. 

The world is filled with such tensions because it’s the nature of karma. This is a schoolroom, a garden really, where everyone grows spiritually according to his own awareness.

Each of us is growing—unfolding—at our own spiritual pace. We could say that the Holy Spirit is directing our lives, leading us into the very life and circumstances we need—the ones which are very good for us spiritually. 

The mind can overreact to this rush of everyday living, and we forget that help is as near as a few moments in contemplation. 

With eyes open or closed, take a few deep breaths to relax. Then with love in your heart, sing HU in a long, drawn-out sound: HU-U-U-U. Take another breath and sing HU again. Continue singing with this feeling of love for up to 20 minutes.

Once tensions relax, the healing current of Spirit begins to restore us. By letting this Sound and Light of God enliven us with spiritual impulses daily, the silent wind of God enters the sacred temple of consciousness in our hearts. We’ve let go of tensions and let love handle it.
