To be alive means to be in the present. In the present, you taste life within yourself.  Blog 2012-02-04T07:01:55+00:00 http://www.breema.com/index.php/site/page/inspiration/february_3_2012/ http://www.breema.com/index.php/site/february_3_2012/#When:07:01:51Z Full Participation means entering into the understanding of the is-ness of yourself in this moment, through the taste of I am.  Blog 2012-02-03T07:01:51+00:00 http://www.breema.com/index.php/site/page/inspiration/february_2_2012/ http://www.breema.com/index.php/site/february_2_2012/#When:14:47:11Z To have Full Participation, you need knowledge and Being. If you are, but you don’t know what to do, you can’t participate fully. If you know what to do, but you don’t have Being, you can’t do what you know. The body is the “ground” where you can experience the taste of understanding, which is the unification of knowing and Being.  Blog 2012-02-02T14:47:11+00:00 http://www.breema.com/index.php/calendar/event/sidebar/ http://www.breema.com/index.php/site/sidebar/#When:10:45:17Z 2012-02-01T10:45:17+00:00 http://www.breema.com/index.php/calendar/event/calendar/ http://www.breema.com/index.php/site/calendar/#When:08:48:30Z dfkasdlf;kal;df 2012-02-01T08:48:30+00:00 http://www.breema.com/index.php/site/page/inspiration/february_1_2012/ http://www.breema.com/index.php/site/february_1_2012/#When:07:01:44Z If you let go of extra, if you drop your concepts and just do Breema, there is an atmosphere in which both the recipient and you are accepted. In acceptance, you are both supported.  Blog 2012-02-01T07:01:44+00:00 http://www.breema.com/index.php/calendar/event/breema_weekends_intensives_and_courses_in_2011/ http://www.breema.com/index.php/site/breema_weekends_intensives_and_courses_in_2011/#When:07:01:36Z At the Breema Center, Bay Area, Breema Principles and Philosophy, Intensive, Introductory Event, Retreat with Breema Center Staff, Retreat with Jon Schreiber, Workshop, Retreat, Workshop with Breema Center Staff, Workshop with Jon Schreiber 2012-02-01T07:01:36+00:00 http://www.breema.com/index.php/site/page/inspiration/essence_of_breema_january_2012/ http://www.breema.com/index.php/site/essence_of_breema_january_2012/#When:18:25:13Z excerpts from classes at the Breema Center To do Breema, just keep it as simple as you can. That means drop all your self-images. You don’t need to be something particular. You don’t need to be a good practitioner. Just allow this body to manifest, and be grateful that you have this opportunity. If you need to do something, then breathe and know that this body is breathing. Know that this body has weight on the ground, and experience the weight of the body on the ground. When you do this, nothing more, you are closer to what you are in reality. As you continue to practice, slowly this becomes property of your Being. We go to sleep at night, and through that sleep we refuel our mental, emotional, and physical centers. In the morning when we get up, we have some capital. We have to learn how to use that capital. If we study ourselves, we see that a good portion of our daily capital is used up in tension and inertia. Our energy leaks away into thoughts of past and future, into likes and dislikes. These thoughts and feelings do not contribute to our bank of energy, they only deplete it. When I bring my mind to be connected with my body, then the energy of the mind unites with the energy of the body. In the union between these two energies, my feelings become available. When these three are together, tension and inertia are minimized, past and future don’t have such a pull on me, and the events of life don’t affect me as strongly.

All you need is to recognize that’s so, but not in your thoughts. You recognize it in the taste of being present.  Blog 2012-01-31T07:01:14+00:00
