Tune In

When you move your body you start to build your relationship with it. When you move with intention, you start to connect the mind and body.

Over time, this relationship allows for more presence, heightened sensitivity, balance within, enjoyment, resilience. The changes are subtle, strengthening until you feel so clear, so able to listen. You are tuned in.

Understanding the language of the body enables us to tap into the wisdom of the body. Becoming in touch with the physical allows us to make changes, and integrate our feelings with our actions.

The body is the basis for everything.

This is a short exercise to begin to tune in:

Find a quiet place to lay prone, preferably on the floor. Corpse pose.

Let your legs and feet relax.

Close your eyes.

Focus your attention inward.

Notice how your breath moves your chest, expands your back, fills your belly.

As you breath imagine the space inside your chest. Can you get a sense of the width of your rib cage?

Breathe deeply now. Allow your breath deeper into your core.

Can you get a sense of the distance between your hip bones? How about your navel and spine?

Now relax.

Knowing our inner selves is an important step to unlocking the inner potential in all of us. Breath is the bridge that connects the conscious and the unconscious. It is the gateway to ourselves. It helps us to cultivate perception, and this is how change occurs.
