What was said to the rose that made it open was sa

What was said to the rose that made it open was said
to me here in my chest.

What was told the cypress that made it strong
and straight, what was

whispered the jasmine so it is what it is, whatever made
sugarcane sweet, whatever

was said to the inhabitants of the town of Chigil in
Turkestan that makes them

so handsome, whatever lets the pomegranate flower blush
like a human face, that is

being said to me now. I blush. Whatever put eloquence in
language, that's happening here.

The great warehouse doors open; I fill with gratitude,
chewing a piece of sugarcane,

in love with the one to whom every that belongs!

What Was Told, By
Jalal al-Din Rumi - 1207-1273 🌹

📸 1972 and 2017. I got back to London this weekend to have a more normal visit with family since further restrictions have lifted. I was leafing through the old family photo books and found these. Not everyone is pictured here, but I do love the photos. ....Those outfits! The first picture was taken at my book launch at The Neom Organics store in Wimbledon in 2017. People told me they were surprised to see my grandparents at the book party, but they love coming to my outings and often support me at events. Which is lovely 🌹 the next photo shows my mother and grandmother in 1972. What’re some of your favourite old family photos?

I can’t believe it’s been nearly 4 months of working 100% online. I do miss meeting up and seeing your beautiful smiling faces in person but I am absolutely loving touching base each week at the online classes and courses. Thank you for joining in and being so enthusiastic!

So much is changing and much of life is happening so differently. Yet, when I look over the top of the computer screen and out through the window into the trees, the robin is nest building in the hedgerows and the roses are climbing the garden gate, ‘singing their sweet song of eternity’ as Thich Nhat Hanh would say. 🌹

If you are curious to join one of my online public classes you can learn more about them at EmmaMillsLondon.com. There is also a great little meditation guide book I wrote called Inhale. Exhale. Repeat which you might also enjoy if you’re interested in mindful living but group classes aren’t for you at the moment.

Happy Wednesday 💚

💭Lots of people tell me they would be having a lovely time sitting quietly in meditation ( or just sitting quietly in general) if only they could just... stop... thinking!

A common misconception about meditation is that you have to stop thinking or get rid of all your thoughts to be successful. But it’s not really true.

While a little focus is always handy, why not think of meditation as a time for reconnaissance, rather than control or coercion. What can you learn if you watch the activity of the mind with a curious and light hearted eye? Cultivate awareness rather than control and see where this leads you.

There is a lovely little practice for dropping into the present moment which is up on my website and YouTube channel now ( emmamillslondon.com )

If you have a Q&A to share that I can answer in my next videos, let me know by leaving a comment or sending a message to hello@emmamillslondon.com putting Q&A in the subject line.

Wishing you a lovely Friday! 💁🏻‍♀️

One Pot Lentil Bake. 🔥

3 cups of brown lentils
3 chopped carrots
2 chopped onions
3 stalks of kale chopped
1 cup of veggie gravy ( depending on size of container)
A little tomato purée
3 potatoes chopped.

—

Layer the lentil, carrot, onion and gravy mix in a deep dish and top with sliced potatoes. It’s really feeding, simple to make and makes for lots of spare lunches the next day. If you eat cheese, a little grated cheese on top would also be lovely 🥘

If ideas could speak 💡 I love this from Hafiz.

If ideas could speak 💡 I love this from Hafiz. It’s something many artists and creatives will recognise. The longing to bring something into being. The urge to see something realised or in form. To give to ‘airy nothing a local habitation and a name’ as William Blake would say. I love the expression of the creative spirit. It can have so many faces. Business and gardening to fashion and theatres and studios allover the world. I know many of you who are friends with me here on IG and on Emma Mills London also love it and have many creative outlets of your own. How lovely. Aren’t we lucky to enjoy it. 💚 #creativeprocess #art #love #life #hafiz #creativity #wellbeing #inhaleexhalerepeat

If you’re an alive body, no one can tell you how

If you’re an alive body, no one can tell you how to experience the world. And no one can tell you what truth is, because you experience it for yourself. The body is a living, creative process. In the most basic sense we are our bodies, and more, that our bodies are an expression in microcosm of the creative organizing principle of the universe. - Words by Stanley Keleman. Photo of 1920’s dancer Isadora Duncan 📸

Do you have time? 🍇 Oh do you have time

Do you have time? 🍇

Oh do you have time

to linger
for just a little while
out of your busy
and very important day
for the goldfinches
that have gathered
in a field of thistles
for a musical battle,
to see who can sing
the highest note,
or the lowest,
or the most expressive of mirth,
or the most tender?
Their strong, blunt beaks
drink the air
as they strive
melodiously
not for your sake
and not for mine
and not for the sake of winning
but for sheer delight and gratitude—
believe us, they say,
it is a serious thing
just to be alive
on this fresh morning

in the broken world.
I beg of you,
do not walk by
without pausing
to attend to this
rather ridiculous performance.
It could mean something.
It could mean everything.
It could be what Rilke meant, when he wrote:
‘You must change your life.’

If you still can’t join in person events or classes because of the C-situation or if you live out of town then this is a great chance to join in. There is an FAQ on the booking page with more information and you can find the link in my bio now @emmamillslondon ( emmamillslondon.com )
I do hope you are well given the unusual times. I’m really enjoying chatting each week and being in touch with you through the classes and the newsletter so do join in or sign up to stay positive and, dare I say it, find the dancing star of opportunity amongst the chaos. ( Nietzsche) .
