After a couple of months of non-stop traveling, it was very nice to be able to spend several days at home.
Resting, disconnecting, reading, and planning were my main activities in a week that left me with these 6 highlights:
H1: Bradley Nelson in Barcelona
After organizing events all over Europe, I was very happy to finally have our first event in Barcelona with Dr. Bradley Nelson.
The first of many ❤️
H2: Fear and courage:
Facundo, a blog reader, shared with me the following excerpt from “When Things Fall Apart” (Prema Chödron).
“The next time you face fear, consider yourself lucky. This is where courage comes in.
We usually think that brave people are not afraid. The truth is that they live and coexist with fear.
When I first got married, my husband said I was one of the bravest people he knew.
When I asked him why, he told me that even though I was very cowardly I always went ahead and did things anyway.”
Next time you are afraid, consider yourself lucky.
H3: When the mind is at peace
A couple of weeks ago, in a second-hand book store, I found a book that really caught my attention, “The Sayings of Layman P’ang: A Zen Classic from China”.
From what I’ve read so far, this was the passage that stuck with me the most:
“When the mind is at peace,
the world is also at peace.
Nothing is real, nothing is missing.
You don’t hold on to reality,
or get stuck in a vacuum.
In that state,
you are neither saintly nor wise,
just an ordinary person,
That he has finished his work.”
H4: Healing
Yesterday, Saturday, over lunch with Dr. Bradley Nelson, he shared with me the following quote from Steven Levine:
“To heal is to touch with love that which we previously touched with fear.”
And yes… what a nice and accurate definition.
H5: Letting go (my first poem)
Whatever you are living,
whatever is going on,
whatever is changing.
Release it,
Let it go…
Let go of your idea of who you are,
of who you want to be,
of how you want the world to be.
Release,
and experience great peace,
of the present moment.
H6: Listen to my reply to your message 😊.
Since I started the blog it has been impossible to keep up with the emails and answer all the messages sent to me (I have more than 1,000 still waiting for a reply!).
For that reason, I decided to try a new way of communicating with you.
Starting tomorrow, Monday, I will start sending voice notes, which will not only save me some time, but will also allow me to answer you in a warmer and closer way.
Until next Sunday, with 6 new highlights 
Feedback? I would love to hear from you. Remember that you can contact me at any time through vladimir@younity.one.
