The Magic Switch.

Written By Caty Hartung

How would it be to shut down our thoughts and finally relax? If there would be a switch: on — off, on — off. Off.

Silence, nothingness, blackout. Is this what enlightenment means? Surely not. As long as one lives, one will bleed when stitched. Is happy when loved. Has pain when being hurt.

How we react to our sensations, feelings, and emotions makes all the difference. That is indeed the magic switch:

  • Remember that there is always change.

  • Try not to judge.

  • Drop the thoughts.

  • Connect with your breath, senses, and surrounding.

  • Don’t take it seriously.

  • Let go.

  • And enjoy the space.

Deeply connected with ourselves, we know: Everything changes, and feelings come and go.
