In my home practice, I find that the breath either enters or does not enter quite specific areas of my body. Watching that area sometimes opens it up so that the breath enters. Other times, the great virtue of the community becomes evident as I surrender to the teaching of many others. Our community is rich with highly skilled practitioners and teachers. This weekend I will be repeating Cathy Holway's basic course, learning again how to hold space in a body with complete respect for the client's pace and neurology.
The rhythms of the body are many: the breathing, the heart and circulation, lymph movement, and the cranial-sacral fluid. What does it feel like when the rhythms are in synch with each other, and we surrender to the wisdom of our body's vast complexity?
