Yi 11: Retreat into Stilling today

 Some days it's time to just step back, disengage, sit still, take a timeout to "Just Be." Like today.. 



Other titles: Withdrawal, Strategic Withdrawal, Inaccessibility, Disassociation from Inferior Forces.

Hilary Barrett:

"Retreat means withdrawing from what can harm you, or what might swallow you up: it is a way to keep yourself whole.  When you retreat, you hide yourself away – you might disappear into the landscape altogether – so that you will not lose yourself. Retreat moves away from threats, and towards wholeness and integrity."
