“The Word was made flesh.” Divine Truth must be known by
its effects on the body as well as on the mind.”
~~~Mary Baker

Say hello to your bones, they are living cells after all, feel them and move
them around. Motion helps lubricate the joints of the body and helps the fluid
elements of our movement. We become more elegant as we wave our arms around, as
if they were wings, feeling the grace of motion that comes from our visions and
dreams.
In order to feel more fluid in motion, a helpful process can be locating all the joints of the body. In the process of discovery, as we proceed to find, examine and feel all the possible motions of the joints under investigation, we can be loosening any misconceptions about location and movement, in that sense we become comfortable with our own structure.
Using an anatomy book as an aid to locate the joints of the body, we can have a 15 minute session. Touch and locate the bones and joints of the feet, legs, hips, rib cage, arms, neck and skull. Touch, move and discover something about the joints of your body. The process can establish an awareness and comfort by feeling how much movement is at each joint while also clearing away misconceptions about location. We can visualize our own skeletal structure and its possible motions. Placing some attention on the action of our breathing while investigating Natures Miracle makes the investigation all the more real.
By moving our body around while feeling the joints of our body we can get a better kinesthetic awareness of our body in motion. Full bodied attention feels the feet hitting the ground and the carriage of the body with a more 3 dimensional sense of moving in the space.
As breath is added to the body we can feel the upper body as riding on the lower body as opposed to all the weight of the body going downward. In walking, the ideal would be that our body moves with a feeling of penetrating horizontal planes. This feeling is dependant on supportive breath in the upper body, where not all the breath is let out with each exhalation. Runners often feel this idea of horizontal planes and it can approximate a weightless feeling.
What a marvel is the structure of our body. The design we have produced for the forms of Planet Earth are even admired by architects for the artful construction and efficient interaction. The poets fascinate with the love potentials of form in the animated presentation of what is possible and feels true.
If we are to grow, loving the body will help in this process. Carol Hanson developed a teaching of having people do 5 minutes a day of ‘loving the body’. A gift we can give ourselves for five minuets a day. Her experience, of the healing results for others were outstanding. Admiring our body and the incredible array of things we can do with our body is a very healthy attitude to have for action in life.
I like to use the phrase God in Motion or God animating the body. It gives me a better picture of what is really going on. The child is so happy in its skin, glad to be alive and learning. Maybe, as we pass on our knowledge of love and truth, that will be the song of our children. The basic goodness in people does need to be primed every day, I feel.
“Teach your
children that truth and happiness come from within; that they don't need to look
outside themselves for approval; that even failures are successes, because they
are lessons in disguise. These are the tools they will need to be successful,
happy, and complete as children, and eventually, as grown-ups”.
~~~Neale Donald Walsch~~~
Peace.
