Snippet.

By Victoria Fann, Wake Up World

When I was first introduced to the Sufi wisdom of seeing our inner spiritual work as a process of untying knots, it immediately resonated. It struck me as a powerful metaphor that brought clarity and insight to the often confusing world of the subconscious. To further illuminate this, I want to take a little side trip here to show how the image of a rope or the act of tying something is used in these common expressions:

• “wound too tight”
• “bound up”
• “unraveling”
• “my stomach is in knots”
• “my muscles are full of knots”
• “tied up”
• “hog-tied”
• “at the end of my rope”
• “fit to be tied”
• “my hands are tied”
• “sleep tight”
• “tie one on”
• “tie the knot”
• “tongue-tied”
• “tie yourself in knots”

Pretty interesting stuff.
