Allow for at least 25 minutes. You will need a comfortable place to sit and rest.
Ideally experience it as a duet, but you can also experience it as a solo or with a relatively still feline or canine friend.
After listening to the somatic poem, allow time for the experience to resonate.
Begin by finding a comfortable position to touch your (or your partner´s) hands.
Sensing the quality and contact of your (or your partner´s) touch.
Allowing the hands to settle and rest.
Close your eyes.
Our bodies:
mostly water
like the earth
Resting in this reservoir
Sensing
rivers, lakes, tides
Inside and
Outside
Circulating.
Fluids navigating
and nourishing
Not striving,
but yielding.
A constant, relentless, persistent current
that carves stones
shapes mountains
And transforms
from ice to mist - rain – clouds.
Tiny estuaries of blood.
Vast oceans of floating organs.
Sensing our watery dwellings
Inside
and outside
a powerful force
pulsating.
Dew on a morning leaf
A bead of sweat on the face
-Dispersing
As a bird or hand lands
Becoming part of everything
As we are
touching hand to hand
sensing
water meets water.
Allowing time…
