Snapshot One
Yesterday in the garden
“I admit that thoughts influence the body.”
—Albert Einstein
Spring arrived slowly this year, or at least felt
like it. Cold winds roared the forest even at times of a very few appearing sunny
spells.
We had so much rain that friends started
greeting each other with a phrase:
-‘Really
it is enough now’- while looking up at the
grey skies.
Then it burst in without any warning or without
asking for permission with its warm reassuring breeze, colours, smells and
sounds.
It was SPRING again in all her glory…
I set up for our session outside, on the lawn in
the garden just a few meters away from the conservatory where we would continue
with our fruit break and hand tasks series.
After taking a big sip of fresh water as always,
finishing our breathing practice and warming up vocalisation work, we took our
shoes off and stood barefoot on the warm grass.
It felt so good…
I said- Make connection with the ground you are connecting
to a living breathing entity.
Spread your toes and even your weight through
both of your feet. We were going through this process with eyes closed.
Than he opened his eyes and looked at me. –I know
what you mean- he said.
On the golf course
when we mark the grass with a golf ball the grass just grows back. It doesn’t need
any special attention.
We were standing and bathing in the morning sun
as I replied to him. - You see only living things could rejuvenate and grow
living things like new shoots of grass.
If the planet wasn’t a living breathing entity it would never be able to
do that.
Also I said: When the damage happens to the
grass we do not kneel down and start crying, feel lost and depressed. We
know that it will rejuvenate.
It is the same with our bodies when something
gets out of balance we get a warning light to raise our awareness that a new
way of ‘expansion’ is ready to manifest. But at the same time the body starts
repairing and rejuvenating straight away.
The intelligence behind it makes it so. The
intelligence which keeps our hearts beating or organises that the planets stay
in orbit and that the sun comes up every morning on the sky.
When was the last time we had to check in your
diary whether our heart was beating or make arrangement for the sun to come up
on the sky?
But when we are diagnosed with something we
forget to pay attention to this side of life…
Most of us focus on and turn our attention
towards the opposite side which offers solutions made for victims and powerless
sufferers.
Do you feel the pulse in your feet yet, mine
just came alive and became recharged from the ground? - I asked.
Yes definitely now you said it, I feel it!-He
said.
Let’s close our eyes again, stand straight, even
our weight over both feet and express our gratitude for that exchange with a
smile from the heart.
After all, the secret to life is about
communication, exchange, learning and finding ways how to communicate and connect
with everything. It is about interaction with ourselves, with others, with our
environment... with everything.
There was a reason why Dr. András Pető called his
system Conductive.
