SOFT BODY MEDITATION
The Soft Body Meditation dissolves the sense of a separate self by opening You to your inherent vulnerability. As we grow up we learn to wall off experiences from our consciousness that are too painful to deal with, thinking that if we can keep them behind a strong barricade we will never have to feel them. But this is just wishful thinking. The truth is that when we wall things off from our consciousness, we don’t really lock them out—we lock them in! They eat away at us from the inside until something eventually breaks (and in this culture, it’s usually our bodies). The only true invulnerability is total vulnerability! If we are willing to completely experience the pain or fear created by life’s inevitabilities, we don’t get stuck anywhere. We can then feel them fully and let go of them. There is no residue, no accumulation of tension-creating, dis-ease-producing toxic emotional baggage. The Soft Body Meditation allows us to open the body gently and gradually, to allow the armoring to dissolve and the heart and mind to open.
