We often discuss all or nothing thinking in therapy and how thinking in these extremes can cause massive amounts of suffering. I saw this Rumi quote and thought it was a beautiful reminder of how important movement, change, and flexibility can be.

“Your hand opens and closes, opens and closes. If it were always a fist or always stretched open, you would be paralyzed. Your deepest presence is in every small contracting and expanding, the two as beautifully balanced and coordinated as birds’ wings.” Rumi

I’m proud to be a part of this initiative to help all of the Uvalde community after the horrible tragedy that occurred. If you or anyone you know is in need of help, please reach out.

Some heartfelt wisdom

Imagine you are walking in the woods and you see a dog sitting by a tree. As you approach it, it suddenly lunges at you, teeth bared. You are frightened and angry. But then you notice that one of its legs is caught in a trap. Immediately your mood shifts from anger to concern: You see that the dog's aggression is coming from a place of vulnerability and pain.
This applies to all of us. When we behave in hurtful ways, it is because we are caught in some kind of trap. The more we look through the eyes of wisdom at ourselves and one another, the more we cultivate a compassionate heart.
