Quote of the Week

“The emotion of fear often works overtime.  Even when there is no immediate threat, our body may remain tight and on guard, our mind narrowed to focus on what might go wrong.  When this happens, fear is no longer functioning to secure our survival.  We are caught in the trance of fear, and our moment-to-moment experience becomes bound in reactivity.  We spend our time and energy defending our life, rather than living it fully.”        Tara Brach
