11.22.15 You almost hear a greeting of sorts

In bodywork, there's something called a Stillpoint. It's kind of a place you meet up with, in someone, an area that has been a bit tangled up, or stuck. And when you come along, and just hang out being present, with no agenda, it is just enough support to enable that place to regain a bit more normal functionality. 

     When you are learning, and just come upon a place in someone's body as you work, there is a pause. You almost hear a greeting of sorts. You are called to be still for a moment, and be very present.

     The older I become, the more I notice when our Deep Wise Self beckons in the same manner. To stop, here, at this moment. To just stand or sit or be with this. This uncomfortableness. This confusion. This heartbroken feeling. Same. Bodies, our deep internal functioning, life.
     The more experienced we become living our lives or doing bodywork, the more agile and versatile we become, also, at more actively ushering these places along, letting them lead.
