Essence of Breema

When you concentrate, that’s the time you don’t hear. Because real hearing takes place beyond your mind, beyond what you think you are. Allow yourself to be receptive. Then you hear. You can only hear from yourself. What you hear from “outside” has no value to you. But it could support you to become...

The life force is like the sap that flows through all plants. Without it, they all die. For the sap to flow correctly, we have to be in touch with it—we have to experience it. We experience it through taste. Taste begins with body and mind working together in harmony.

Just as we’ve misused the energy of the Earth, we misuse the energy of our own body. We need to find out how to turn, so we’re oriented in the right direction. The first step is to bring the mind, which has been fed rubbish for centuries and centuries, back in the direction of what is essential. And...

The best shock absorber is body-mind connection. While you have body mind connection, fear doesn’t affect you so much. Your feelings have a chance to not be so reactive. The energy you receive from food, air, and impressions supports you to be healthy. You attract more balanced energy. Even from...

Present means free from past and future, free from thoughts and feelings. When you are present, it doesn’t mean you don’t have a mind. You have a mind that functions properly. Not the mind which is always lost in thought, always taking yourself as something separate, but the mind which is with the...

As you put the Nine Principles of Breema into practice, they introduce you to yourself. Because you are the one who has to taste Body Comfortable. You are the one who has to see if you’re fully participating, if you have Mutual Support, or Firmness and Gentleness. The four “no” principles—No Extra...

What if your aim was, “I wish to have body-mind connection at all times”? If that becomes your aim, and you have just one moment of body-mind connection in a whole day, you have to be grateful for that moment. Because it takes place in a higher dimension, not in the one we’re almost always living in...

You have a body, but you are not your body. There are thoughts in your mind, but you are not those thoughts. You have feelings, but you are not those feelings. If you’re not any of those, then what are you? You are that which is conscious of thoughts, feelings, and body. You have a chance to see...
