This weekend I attended a "puja" ceremony with my boyfriend that was hosted by two friends. It was about healing relationships between men and women and an opportunity to increase our ability to me intimate. Most of the exercises were familiar from other workshops I have participated in over the years, except for one. We rotated partners for each exercise so there was a new man to share with each time. For this exercise the men sat down and the women danced in front of their partners to music, honoring them. When I first connected to this young man with the big dark eyes, I sensed sadness and pain. I danced with full concentration on him, sending energy through and around his whole being, guided intrinsically without forethought. At the end he said it was extremely healing and beautiful. His energy had lightened and his whole being smiled at me.
This was a prime example how without any actual physical touching, but with loving intent, one person can deeply touch another. It was "field work." Our auric field is affected by the energy around us. Being aware of this powerful, non-physical touch, which includes our movements and position in space, to shape the lives of others, is of vital importance in healing our past wounds from bad touch and bad intentions.
May you all experience loving, nurturing touches during this holiday week of thanks and giving. Trackback URL For This Entry Is http://www.32direct.com/blogs_ma/trackback.php?id=670
