Animals

Animals are great examples of how we can teach ourselves stillness.

When you look at your pet for example, there is nowhere they need to be, they are purely living in the present. By looking at your pet with complete presence you can sense the aliveness inside of them, they are pure and completely free.

Common animals of this kind are cats and dogs. Cats are normally peaceful animals who enjoy to walk around but rest most of the time. By being in the presence of one of our feline friends you can tap into the same peace they live by. Dogs are similar, with one of the main ideologies about them that they can sense when their owner is upset, so they go to comfort them. This shows the truly beautiful connection between man and animal.

Whenever you get the chance, or even right now, sit with your pet and observe their presence, and rest there.
