Practice

Imagine you LOVED your body. Every day you woke up delighted with your physical self. You knew that you could find great entertainment, marvelous education, and transcendent pleasure- all by connecting with your body.

Imagine you could develop wisdom and compassion, humor and creativity, and feel confident that you could make a positive contribution to any social event just by showing up and being yourself.

Would it be worth an hour or two a day to feel that?

It takes practice, not just occasional or casual practice, but committed, focused, consistent ongoing practice to get to a masterful level of somatic awareness.

H.L. Mencken sad, “Christianity has not been tried and found wanting, it has not been tried.” I believe that the same holds true for somatics. A little bit is great, but the reality of a serious practice is transcendent.
