We are working horses this morning on the ground. That means that we are not riding. Raballi is a weanling and learning to lead. Karen is walking and Raballi is following when she wants to stop he is not listen.
Karen let me see if I can help you. I want to push on you so you can feel how your roots are working this morning.
OK, Karen says.
I don’t like this pushing stuff. Karen says.
It’s not about liking it Karen it is about having ground. See if you can hold your feet to the ground and handle the pressure from the hand on your chest, your going to be able to have the amount of ground needed to show Raballi who is the leader. Right now he thinks he is.
I can’t! Your being to aggressive…. Do you have to push so hard? She says.
Karen I am not being aggressive but your wanting to be aggressive to deal with the pressure. That is even OK but go down to your feet with that energy.
Don't feed your mind that you want to have a fight of some sort.. That is just your ego and your very week from that point. A horse could not give a wing on a fly about your ego.
You are wanting to be aggressive Gary, Karen says.
Look into my eyes and tell me if I am wanting to be aggressive.
I am here to help you but I can’t help you unless you let me.
OK, I am here Karen says.(this was a beautiful moment of humbling)
That is it Honey! Yes that is it. Now go try that with Raballi.
The horse stops. Yea!
It is all about getting the energy to your feet. What does that mean? From the top of your head where the energy comes in to the heart and then down to the tummy. The next big step is to get through the pelvic floor.
Here lie some of the most powerful muscles in your body and even though energy can go through anything it takes awareness to be able to make it happen. Pass through the floor and your 90% there.
All that is left is to hang out and let the energy go all the way to the feet and into the electrical invisible root system. Your grounded now... It really is easy it might take some practice but it is not hard.
Thank you for reading, Gary

I vs A part of me
Why 'I' ? Why not 'a part of me?'
Remember the Macro holds the Micro.
Karen said,"I don’t get it. I just don’t understand."
'I' …Karen is where you have to began to change. Moving out of this limiting perspective. Sure you can get it ! Parts of your self don’t get it but they will come along.
All you need is to get one part and then the next part will come together then the next. That is why in our language that we use with our self and others the shift from the words, 'I' to 'a part of me' can make such a difference.
For example: I am not worth anything after telling that lie to my parents. Well that is not true. Sure it was not a good idea to tell a lie but there are lots of parts of you that want to tell the truth. When we say the part of myself that told a lie is not worth anything, then we have other parts of self that can jump in and do some loving on the part of self than needs that support. In someways that is why a team work, works. We experience parts of self working as a whole.
What does 'all the parts of me' mean?
Do you ever feel like your 16 years old?
Today I have a women in my life that I have kissed. It used to be a want. I kept looking for a moment, an excuse to kiss her.
The whole time I was waiting, I felt like I was 16 years old. That is a part of me. I am kind of a slow mover but before she went home I gave her a kiss.
The moment I kissed her I really felt being all of 16. Then 16 year old, then felt 21 year old and then present time man (all the parts of me) came together for that first good night kiss.
Each part of us is just alive as it was when we were that age. Time is an illusion not the experience of being a child. Be all you can be by staying out of 'I' zone when things are not working. It is only a part that is not working... Then there is all that is working. Sometimes even that is hard to see but soon when you move from I to parts of me you will see how big you really are as a human being.
Thanks, Gary

Jugement
Judgment
When we hold judgment against another.
We are placing that statement at one level towards ourselves.
Try it out: (name of a friend) just can not get her life together!
Now try this one: I can see how (name of the same friend) is putting her life together.
The difference is noticeable. If you did not feel anything just play with it for a few days. Play with the sentence structure so your not lying to your self. It may need to change to something like, I wonder how I could help this friend of mine put her life together?
Stopping judgment is not for the sake of you being a nice guy, it is for the sake of keeping you free of judging self. It supports you being more then what you think you are.
