Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“We are the night ocean filled
with glints of light. We are the space
between the fish and the moon,
while we sit here together.”
Rumi, The Essential Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“In your light I learn how to love.
In your beauty, how to make poems.

You dance inside my chest,
where no one sees you,

but sometimes I do,
and that sight becomes this art.

Drumsound rises on the air,
its throb, my heart.

A voice inside the beat says,
"I know you're tired,
but come. This is the way."

Are you jealous of the ocean's generosity?
Why would you refuse to give this joy to anyone?

Fish don't hold the sacred liquid in cups!
They swim the huge fluid freedom.”
Rumi, The Essential Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Stop the words now. Open the window in the center of your chest, and let the spirits fly in and out.”
Rumi, The Essential Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Your boundaries are your quest.”
Rumi, The Essential Rumi

Bessel van der Kolk
“In our studies we keep seeing how difficult it is for traumatized people to feel completely relaxed and physically safe in their bodies. We measure our subjects’ HRV by placing tiny monitors on their arms during shavasana, the pose at the end of most classes during which practitioners lie face up, palms up, arms and legs relaxed. Instead of relaxation we picked up too much muscle activity to get a clear signal. Rather than going into a state of quiet repose, our students’ muscles often continue to prepare them to fight unseen enemies. A major challenge in recovering from trauma remains being able to achieve a state of total relaxation and safe surrender.”
Bessel A. van der Kolk, The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma
