Noticing pain without resisting it is a fine art. Very subtle differences.
The inner aliveness within (inner body) is where joy and peace arise, and later also love. Joy and peace come before love. Feel the inner aliveness often, and it will become easier and easier to feel it in all situations all the time. This makes for a pleasant existence.
When you lay down fully awake. And then fully relax all tension and know that you are in a safe place of just you and God. You can relax beyond your mask and see what is under the mask. You see everything that is usually covered up. It give you an idea of where you are in the growing process and what parts to feel into more.
