The felt sense of Byron Katie’s inquiry, was one of the first times I realized just how powerful my thoughts were emotionally. The felt sense of relief when I ask how would I feel without that thought was immediate. I real eye opener for me.
Hi Joan, Let me introduce myself. I'm about to turn 85 and am an author. My passion over the past 20 or so years has been committed to giving women their voices - through legacy writing, loosely based on "the ethical will" of Genesis.I met Susie Kaufman who writes on Substack under the title "Seventy Something" (I recommend her thoughtful and beautiful writing). I decided to write for Substack too naming my column "Reflections at 85". I have only posted once so far, but in searching for other writers who are writing about aging, I came across "Right Now Just As It Is" and felt right at home. I was especially impressed by your film recommendations and excited to watch some that are new to me. Thank you for your column, and I hope you'll check mine out too.
The moments in which the now feels not like it's happening in the moment; in those moments if the attention just grabs the sensations it feels a paradise unlike any other 💙
Beautiful as always. 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
I love Dogan - he's my guy- and once again you have given words to practices in the most truthful way- thank you
HOME❣Nice, Joan🙏
thanks, Joan.
Thank you Joan always just what I need when I needed it! Mysterious serendipity of love

As very often when I read you I am FEELING such an awesome gratitude for the echoing of your words in my whole being.
Thanks again Joan. I’m forwarding this to my niece who is just starting to “meditate”. Hopefully this will resonate with her
Thanks for your teaching. I’m getting a lot out of it. And thanks for introducing me to Robert Saltzman’s work. Again, very helpful. Peace.
Yes!
Great pointers ...Gracias Gracias ❤️
