Exploring emptiness is a rare luxury in our busy modern lives…although we have an opportunity for it with every breath we take, and the capacity to consciously work with it, it’s something that can be undervalued. When we begin bringing awareness to its presence in our lives though, emptiness can be a precious and deeply life enhancing reminder that we are full of possibility.
Emptiness is there at the end of every exhalation, it’s there at times when space opens up in our lives, either physically or mentally; emptiness naturally follows endings of all kinds.
The times in our lives when we experience the space between endings andexcitement and anticipation of the next phase. The experience of emptiness is there in the space between every exhale and the inhale that follows. While we may experience fleeting moments of emptiness in our lives, consciously cultivating or savouring emptiness isn’t something most of us do willingly.
