Recover Yourself with Tao Te Ching Wisdom

Support Group

Burnout is the symptom. Loss of self is the cause. Recover your mind, your time, and your health, guided by the ancient wisdom of Lao Tzu.

Reaching Out to the Sun

Free Yourself with Your Own Awareness

The Tao Te Ching teaches that true recovery is not about escaping the past, it is about returning to yourself. That is the foundation of everything we do here.

We all have thought patterns that control how we react. They have been with us since childhood but most of us aren't aware of when, how, or why, they take control. 

Your patterns are unique and so are your solutions. The only way to reach beyond those familiar patterns is to become aware of when they are triggered within you. 

You have wasted enough time living as if you are not the god you were born to be. It is time to recover that, it's time to recover your Self!

Workshop

After living most of my adult life feeling angry, frustrated and victimized, I set out on a journey to reconnect with myself. A few years into my voyage, I encountered MartinJon doing his incredible work. I was intrigued at this seemingly crass and self acclaimed “woowoo” person who would often describe life as being easy! While working with MartinJon, I was inspired to look within and observe without judgement. He helped me see many reoccurring experiences from a very different perspective. I then gradually began to let go… I let go of needing to control outcomes and people, let go of the anger that has plagued my life and relationships, I let go and began to see ME again. MartinJon’s insightfulness guided me while I I did the hard work that would help me to learn how to love ALL of the parts of myself. The work that helped me begin discovering MY perfection and not some unattainable definition of the word. And now, for the first time ever, I am feeling unafraid and excited about whatever lies ahead!

#21 "Tao is not Temporary"
The Master is at peace knowing she is of manifestation
And that manifestations are always temporary.
Knowing this, she always follows Tao.

How can she be at peace knowing she is temporary?
Because she doesn't cling to her life or ideas
And still she is fulfilled.

Tao cannot be fathomed or known; how can she follow it?
She allows it to lead her from moment to moment.
Tao is, and is always,
Even before the manifestation of time and space.
Tao is beyond both temporary and forever.

How do I know this to be true?
The evidence is within me as it is within you.

#26 "Wasted Movement"
Without knowing darkness
Light is mysterious and distracting.
Without knowing stillness
All movement is wasted.

This is why the Master travels
And never leaves home.
No matter how amazing the manifestation
She knows there is nothing that she is not.

Why should anyone seek to be influenced or entertained?
If you let yourself be entertained
You lose touch with your root.
If you let yourself be influenced
You lose touch with who you are.

#45 "Beware of Words with Meaning"
To not define your accomplishments
You will always have patience to spare.
To not acknowledge your fullness
You will always have space to spare.

When we define something as straight, we see how crooked it is.
When we define someone as skilled, we focus on how clumsy they are.
When we call a speech eloquent, we notice the stammering therein.

The Master needn't define things,
What they are will arise naturally.
By removing herself, and her need to know,
She can see Tao express itself fully.

#47 "Engaging with Manifestation"
You can understand all things touched by Tao
Without leaving your room.
You can see all things touched by Tao
Without opening your eyes.

The more you trust the manifestation
The less you trust yourself.

Thus, the Master never engages manifestation
Without first having engaged herself.
In so doing she achieves everything
Without ever having considered it.

#54 "Observing Virtue"
Tend to Tao in your life and it will never be uprooted.
Hold fast to Tao and it will never slip away.
Filled with Tao, respect the children and they will respect the children
That simple virtue will continue for every generation.

This can only start with an individual and when her virtue can be realized
She will cultivate it in her family and it will become great.
They will cultivate this virtue in their community and it will continue to grow,
Naturally spreading across the nation and becoming abundant.
Because it is abundant it will touch every part of the Universe.

How do I know this is the way?
By quietly observing myself.

#59 "Serving Others"
While serving others, be as reserved as you can be.
Be like Tao, nurture all things without influencing them.

This is possible through moderation
Free yourself from the constraints of your own ideas.
Respect all things as they are and remove their limits.
Embrace this virtue and your limits are removed as well.
Find within yourself both solid ground and yielding sky.
Be at one with Tao and the landscape creates itself.

Limitless you achieve immortality.

#66 "Leading from Behind"
There are great benefits to humility
All rivers flow to the sea
Because its position is lower.

The Master emulates this by always being a servant,
Inspiring from below, leading from behind,
No one is oppressed, they find their own way.

Like rivers so too will the people flow to the Master,
Never feeling oppressed or as if they are in danger,
The whole world supports her and keeps her in their hearts.
Without a reason or a desire to compete
She is never met with competition.
