> Resistance is holding onto thoughts that block your
> experience of Well-Being. Worry, frustration,
> resentment, annoyance, etc. -- all are manifestations
> of resistance.
>
> Clinging to resistant thoughts takes a lot of energy
> -- energy that *could* be easing your path.
>
> Ironically, parents often complain about (i.e.,
> resist) not getting enough sleep. When you resist that
> condition, the resistance drains your energy, causing
> you to need even more sleep!
>
> Of course it's good to get as much rest as you can
> when you're exhausted. But you can also balance the
> equation from the *inside* by releasing the resistance
> that creates the stress that makes you tired --
> including your resistance to tiredness itself.
>
> Today (and tonight) notice how you talk and think
> about sleep and rest. Gently release any thought that
> feels stressful. Imagine that every time you release a
> resistant thought, it's like giving yourself an hour
> of sleep. :-)
