thank you for the insights and link!!
at my 2nd session, i learned that resistance can exist not only in the mind, but in the body as well. I am looking forward to seeing what happens in this aspect of my journey. i believe i am more disconnected from my body/energy than i realized.

Happiness cannot be found
through great effort and willpower,
but is already present,
in open relaxation and letting go.
Don't strain yourself,
there is nothing to do or undo.
Whatever momentarily arises
in the body-mind
Has no real importance at all,
has little reality whatsoever.
Don't believe in the reality
of good and bad experiences;
they are today's ephemeral weather,
like rainbows in the sky.
