This practice is adapted from the work of Wendy Palmer.
It is a way of re-centering the body and coming back into a place of flow.
Into flow
Sit comfortably and gently close your eyes
Notice your breath
As you inhale imagine your breath is a spiral column connecting to the lightness of the heavens
As you exhale imagine your breath is a spiral column rooting you into the ground
Inhale to the heavens
Exhale to the ground
Inhale to the heavens
Exhale to the ground
Notice the energy field around your body
- is it even front and back? even it out
- is it even on either side? even it out
- is it even top and bottom even it out
Place your hand on your belly, imagine your hips are your favourite mountain
Place your hand on your heart, imagine your heart is your favourite ocean
Place your attention on your mind, imagine your mind is the wide blue of the sky
Consciously relax your shoulders and jaw
Find one quality that you would like a little more of to take back
Ask your body “what would it be like if there was just a little more……” (ease, confidence, stillness…..)
