Every few weeks I offer a drop-in processing group to assist with these intense times. Here is the latest one, including summary notes, video, and visual map.
Summary:
We start with 10 minutes of meditation and then reports about Inner Work and what is arising now.
J.C. a Tech Analyst and Artist from Australia raises her hand. Through her, we embark on a journey of Self Inquiry through the terrain of hyper-awareness and anger. Into the realm of the three brains: head, heart, and gut. Forging an alliance of tools up and down the spine. Something every artist can benefit from …
J.C begins by noticing hyper-awareness to health, politics, and science. We greet all three – ‘you are welcome here’. Come to Satsang.
Next comes anger. We greet both the ‘yes’ and the ‘no’ of anger.
The authentic yes of it doing its job of alerting when boundaries are being violated.
And the authentic no of ‘no good coming of it’ and ‘burns down’. No thank you. We don’t like that.
A scared Orphan emerges from the depths for rescuing. Come here, come here. You are safe.
Curiosity wants to make friends with Boundaries. Has wanted to for a long time. Yes, please.
MIND pops in with some discomfort and a judgment of ‘you are so weird’.
Hello Intellect, thank you for your love. Thank you for your service. Are you getting a bit tired holding everything up? Being a lone head on a stick?!
Heart arrives. Yes, please. “Let’s move away from connecting dots, shall we?’. A different language from the step-by-step or logical. Yes, the language that we paint from.
Gut chimes in with ‘I listen’ and ‘I hear’. ‘I’m tuned in’. I am nervous to lead but I can guide. But what if I fail?
But what if you fly says the Heart!
A spinal connection between all three emerges. Head, heart, and gut unified by the spine. All of their tools in the toolkit. Yes, please!
Voice. Expansion. Room. Spaciousness. Authentic. Equipped. Unity.
The nervous system’s feedback loop.
The mind recognizes that all three brains are included and welcomed in The SHIFT-IT maps.
Yes to maps. Yes to community.
Community inside and community outside.
