By Jen Peer Rich ~~ Remembering my sanity. ~~ For me, waking up to who I am on a deeper level of wholeness is not a spiritual experience. At least not how we in the western mind typically define spiritual. It is much more of a psychological experience where I am being taught in presence by nature, by inquiring into the deepest parts of my psyche. It is about remembering my sanity. I have a general sanity that is the core of who I am. This basic sanity is my birthright as a human animal. For most of my life I forgot sanity. I forgot myself as a natural being. I suffered tremendously from my own mind and beliefs about myself. And waking up was all about learning to reconnect with who I am beyond that suffering.
