<p>Of course we want to resist a virus or a disease; there are many things we<br />
do not want or need in our life. We should resist temptations that could kill<br />
us or do harm.<a href="http://thelessonsinlove.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/IMG_0027.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-824" title="IMG_0027" src="http://thelessonsinlove.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/IMG_0027-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p><strong>However, when do we really need to resist or defend? </strong>Most of life will go<br />
quite well, if we do not resist the process of life.</p>
<p>Much of our resistance may be unnessary, without reason and not helpful<br />
to our situation?</p>
<p><strong>Have you resisted the length of the day? </strong>Do you resist the morning<br />
when you awake? Do you resist the sun when it goes down?</p>
<p>Do you resist the ride to work? Do you resist your life in any way?</p>
<p>Why not give in to the fact that we live, that we are alive? Why not give in to the fact<br />
that we love and accept?</p>
<p><strong>Resistance, as a frame of mind, is rarely required. </strong>Resisting our essential nature<br />
can strangle our life.</p>
<p>Resistance to the love of our soul, mind and heart can make our life short and ill defined.</p>
<p>Why resist when resistance is not required?</p>
<p><strong>Why not give yourself to love in an open way, </strong>not resisting who you are?</p>
<p>We are open to life, loving and giving by nature&#8230; it is the way we designed.</p>
<p>Give in to life and the best of who you are; why resist it?</p>

<p>&#8220;Finding Peace&#8221; consists of simple instructions for relaxation that work together with the &#8220;Qi Gong Warm Up.&#8221; By doing this exercise you will develop new:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Balance, peace &amp; strength.</strong></p>
<p>By repeating this exercise, you will gain greater balance, peace and strength!</p>
<p>Remember: Problems are complex; solutions are simple and quick. But you may have to practice and repeat the solution to get the desired effect? So practice and repeat &#8220;Finding Peace.&#8221; Two or three times a day are enough with sessions of 7 to 12 minutes.</p>
<p>The body and brain naturally know how to relax, gain strength and find peace&#8211;it is our design. We simply need to provide the right setting and the best circumstances. Peace will come; strength will grow. The secret is practice and repetition.</p>

<ol>
<li>Find a quiet and restful place to sit.</li>
<li>Close your eyes, and place each hand&#8217;s palm down on the top of your legs.</li>
<li>Begin to breathe in an easy manner.</li>
<li>Observe your breathing; do not control it.</li>
<li>By observation, you may notice relaxation taking place, but don&#8217;t force relaxation to happen.</li>
<li>Feel and notice your muscles from head to toe.</li>
<li>Gently suggest your muscles relax and let go.</li>
<li>Gently observe your breathing again.</li>
<li>Relax your brain and nervous system.</li>
<li> Observe your breathing one more time.</li>
<li>Relax your muscles again from head to toe.</li>
<li><strong>Play Part One of  &#8221;Qi Gong Warm Up&#8221; below&#8230;</strong></li>
</ol>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><object width="425" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/TUmbxKI8eNM?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/TUmbxKI8eNM?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Finding Peace&#8221;  -  Part II</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>With your eyes closed, imagine you can see through you eyelids.</li>
<li>Imagine you can look to the tip of your nose, in an easy and relaxed manner.</li>
<li>You are now looking through closed eyelids to the tip of your nose, pretending you can see.</li>
<li>From the tip of your nose, imagine a ruby red arch going out from your nose and curving into your heart. Hold this image for a few seconds.</li>
<li>Breathe easy, in and out. Relax.</li>
<li>Visualize your feel rooted deeply to the ground, as a tree.</li>
<li>Repeat steps 1 through 6.</li>
<li><strong>Play Part Two of  &#8221;Qi Gong Warm Up&#8221; below&#8230;</strong></li>
</ol>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><object width="425" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-Bh4FTwq47A?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-Bh4FTwq47A?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object></p>
<p><strong>This is the end of the exercise</strong>.</p>
<p>The secret is practice and repetition, doing it again and again. Strength and peace are waiting for you; they are your design. Make it happen, and do it again.</p>

<blockquote><p><strong>Grace</strong>: <strong><em>Unmerited divine assistance given human-kind for their regeneration or sanctification.</em></strong></p></blockquote>
<p>It is better to act from grace, than receive it. It is more effective to give grace, from our soul, than expect it.</p>
<p><strong>Grace is a human power, a natural ability we all have</strong>. Grace is a way of living in cooperation with each other. Grace is agreement with all of life.</p>
<p>So often we look for intervention from a source outside of ourselves? We naturally want to be rescued, as a child in need. But what if the greatest source of life is who we are? What if the answer to all our needs is at our core?</p>
<p><strong>What if the strongest source of grace and good is the consequence of our own actions and abilities?</strong> Can grace, coming from ourselves and our own deeds, be the greatest source of help we can receive?</p>
<p>As we act with grace, the world cooperates, and we are not alone. As we give forth the best of who we are, the best of life comes forth.</p>
<p><strong>Grace and good-will, that we originate, create <em>more </em>grace and good-will</strong>: it is an unending and ever-growing cycle that includes the entire world.</p>
<p>Act out the grace you would like to receive.  Be the force of good in the world you would like to see.</p>
