You are the river - Knee-deep underground

After fifteen minutes of melting inwards, my Client suddenly said:

“You are such a healer! In my forty-three years, I’ve never experienced anything like this. After what? 15 min? This is what Yoga truly is - something I’ve never understood until now. And I can do it anywhere, anytime - even while standing in line at the store.”

Yes. That’s exactly it. We can meet the body - our energy - and what I call the supporting forces anywhere, at any moment, as a living, physical experience… not just as an idea.

And, no in this sense, I´m not the healer, you are - or we both share this common ground.

Melting inward is what happens when we come into contact, release our grip, and allow the inner, already-present current to unfold in its own way - exactly as it is.

Here, we become both Witness and Experiencer of a natural inner movement - one from which we are inseparable - a deep connection to earth and to space; to that subtle field that, like water, holds buoyancy and continuously supports every motion.

Here, the limbs, our being - our body and mind - can rest.

Be supported and held.

Melting inward is the act of meeting those supporting forces.

And when we let go, we receive ourselves as a gift - the rising of energy moving through us, carrying us, as our natural state of being.

You are the river -

the rocks, the water, the drifting debris.

And you are the gentle flow

that keeps seeking, ever deeper.

Water will always find its way -

not through will,

but through being.

For the moment will enters,

the soft cascade begins to reverse.

True will arises only

when we are knee-deep - underground

connected to the existing current, feeling the earth itself rise

to meet and support us.
