Welcome to the 61 point technique,
An ancient practice from the Himalayan tradition.
This journey is more than a physical relaxation,
It is a pilgrimage of awareness through the sacred landscape of your own body.
Each point you touch with your attention becomes a doorway,
Allowing the mind to loosen its grip on thought and return to its natural state of stillness.
In this tradition,
The body is seen as a temple and the mind as its witness.
As we travel through these 61 points,
We awaken subtle currents of energy,
Harmonizing the nervous system and inviting the breath to flow with ease.
There is nothing to fix and nowhere to arrive,
Nothing to achieve,
Only a gentle resting into presence,
Moment by moment.
Let your body be fully supported,
Let your eyes come closed,
Feel the weight of yourself resting into the earth and the earth holding you completely.
With each shift of awareness from point to point,
Allow the layers of tension,
Memory,
Restlessness,
Insecurity to dissolve.
As you enter quiet,
The luminous space within,
We begin.
