Lektion 1
Familiarizing Ourselves With Our Body
This is an experiential contemplation of becoming familiar with the feeling of our body. This can be used as a tool to come back from the imaginary past and the future to the reality of Now.
We often visualize our bodies as individual parts and merge the felt sense with the visual sense. Today, we separate both the senses and spend time exploring the felt sense of the body -
Along the way, we also learn to relax and acclimate to that state of the body!
Lektion 2
The Intimacy of Our Body
We experience our bodies in two ways: externally (thru visual perceptions) and internally (as sensations). Both these ways serve a special purpose in our lives. Visual perception is a clear, crisp rendering of the specifics of our and other bodies while Sensation is a fuzzy, pulsating experience of only OUR body!
The internal experience is how we experience intimacy with our bodies! This contemplation walks us through it in an experiential way!
Lektion 3
Expanding Into Space
This contemplation is about the internal experience of the bodily sensations likened to small electrical impulses that we feel! As we become aware of these sensations, a natural recognition of expansion occurs where we feel our entire body is pulsating as these impulses in the space!
Lektion 4
Honoring Our Bodies
This contemplation is about honoring our bodies - a practice quite alien to our culture.
In order to honor something, we need to acknowledge the presence without any judgments or labels. This contemplation walks us through honoring our sensations without trying to get rid of them or to be lost in them.
This is a special practice!
