Effortless Action - a Short Reflection and Meditation

In this episode, Alessandro takes us through a short reflection and meditation and shares a breathing practice for relaxation

Wu Wei is the ancient concept of effortless action and Alessandro reflects on how we can learn to achieve more with less effort if we learn to be fully present and open

KEY TAKEAWAYS

We equate success with extensive effort in the western world
What if every cell in the body is breathing, you are being breathed  by the universe
Imagine every cell is exchanging breath with the universe
When we listen it’s to be fully present and to absorb what is being heard

BEST MOMENTS

‘What if we could achieve more with less effort?’

 ‘Listen as every cell is gently breathing’

RESOURCES FOR THIS EPISODE

Chapter 63 Tao Te Ching

Tao Te Ching - Lao Tzu - Chapter 63

Practice non-action.

Work without doing.

Taste the tasteless.

Magnify the small, increase the few.

Reward the bitterness with care.

 

See simplicity in the complicated.

Achieve greatness in little things.

 

In the universe the difficult things are done as if they are easy.

In the universe great acts are made up of small deeds.

The sage does not attempt anything very big,

And thus achieves greatness.

 

Easy promises make for little trust.

Taking things lightly results in great difficulty.

Because the sage always confronts difficulties,

He never experiences them.

 

(translation by Gia-fu Feng and Jane English)
