It usually leaves the body through the top of the head. The lid, or the hatch opens up for a short period of time, and everything that wounded us at a moment of temporary instability will go away. Signals, which caused the tension, leave the body as dark energy and some fine suspended matter. Sometimes, it can even look like trash or stones. Sometimes, it can be some abstract objects like red and yellow triangles, for example. Not all these associations are that important as they are not our goal. What matters here is the process of letting go of everything that we do not really need in life.
Sometimes, darkness goes away through our eyes, ears, or our mouth.
It happens so that once one has restored his or her peace, a black dot or something similar to it moves away from the stomach through the feet. This can mean that some ancestral fright brought by the family has left the body.
That black dot which went out through the feet
Tatiana is a successful businesswoman. The tension she feels in her stomach, sometimes, brings her physical pain. As she calms down, the tension drops, and she feels how some black dot leaves her body through her feet. Her stomach feels liberated, then her legs gain strength, they seem to come to life again, and she is rubbing her hands. Then she remembers that she is a granddaughter of former political prisoners both on mothers and on fathers side of the family. She has become an entrepreneur. The understanding of the fact that the risk of danger is not as high as it used to be for her ancestors gives her pleasant feeling. The day after the session during our seminar, she discovers some residue feeling in her chest in the form of red worms, and this sensation quickly disappeared. Tatiana felt peaceful, and her attention was free20.
If you feel that this process is completed, you can move on to the second stage of the reinvention.
Stage 2
1. When you feel that your internal space has been cleansed, that the membrane of the entrance has skinned over, that the hatch has closed, then observe how reasonable solutions, experience, and competence that surround your head pour into your body and fill in the space, especially where you have previously experienced tension.
2. This is when the flow of light, water, some mass, lava or even something free-flowing is moving down from the surrounding space or your head into your. In some cases, new knowledge is born and is unfolded directly in a place, which has been cleared of unhelpful information.
3. Everything, that makes us more mature and more confident, flows into the tension-free body and find its right place, thus forming the core of the competence.
4. It usually flows down to the level of the solar plexus (in the stomach, at the level of the elbows)
5. This will help you feel calm and maintain your strength, even in stressful situations. This will help you act precisely and creatively.
6. You may feel how light your head has become and your body has this pleasant feeling of saturation, which makes it more stable and calm. The sensation of pleasant heaviness can reach your fingers and toes. Remain in this state as long as you find necessary. Gradually, this heaviness and warmth will be absorbed, and then you will experience lightness and freshness.
7. A part of your strength can come from your feet, from your roots.
8. This feeling of new fullness will support you and protect you in the future.
9. Along with cleansing from the old and filling in with the new, this process can be seen as some sort of initiation into maturity. Now, you will be able to solve any problem like an adult.
10. When you feel that the process is complete, open your eyes.
What you have just done is the most efficient and significant practice for restoring your potential. You might find it useful to repeat this procedure.
Whatkind of snake am I cherishing in my bosom?
Our attention can be disturbed not only by problems, but also by some useless wishes, empty hopes, and some unfortunate attachments. This is what we can find in the chest, in our soul.
Exercise 2: Getting rid of pipe dreams
Stage 1
1. Define what has sunk deep into your heart and what exactly is it that you are cherishing?
2. Decide if it is something useful and has any perspective and if you should really keep nurturing it.
3. Whichever useless object or attachment you discover in your chest will fly away your energy will be released.
Stop cherishing snakes
In this part of the work, you let go of every snake you have been cherishing so far in the depths of your body, and by snake, we mean everything that has been harmful. Letting go in this case is connected with calming down and finding peace, without any fight. There is nothing to fight with. If you have made your mind, you will find your peace. Under such circumstances, snakes dry out and vanish as dust or simply disappear.
These emotions can be connected with some unfortunate infatuation with a person in a relationship or when you are not single. It can also be alcohol addiction: then those bottles of liquor are let go from your internal space which peace of mind fills instead.
In my book Objects in the Body, I mentioned observations of the Orthodox monks on how wicked thoughts settle in our mind and how desires unfold: it never happens quickly. Fortunately, the reverse development of the events for these unwelcome conditions is also possible. As a result, sobering up helps a person return from the unnatural state to its natural condition and reconnection with God.
Stage 2
If you realize that your wishes are natural, and the unnatural part was tying them to the object that you have just let go, then take this thought a little further. Are there better or legal ways of satisfying these wishes? Is not there someone or something on the horizon that would bring you that long-awaited satisfaction without causing you any trouble?
If you experience something like that, then let this feeling come closer to you.
3. If not, then prepare yourself for attentive scanning of the space around you so that as soon as this realization appears, you will react to it. Meanwhile, you have to be patient.
4. Ability to stay strong through difficult times is a trait of a mature person.
Where am I?
In one of our classes, there was a woman, who, judging by her facial features, was a very gifted person. Such people tend to have very bright awakening moments. All of a sudden, she says: I have complete silence; there are no images at all.
Here is a part of our conversation with her:
Surrounded by fir-trees
Where are you? Are you here or somewhere else?
She finds herself in the country. Even her picture had something of this sort (the test drawing which you must have already tried doing): in her picture, there was a person surrounded by triangles, which stood for fir-trees. What did we discover in our conversation? 70% of her attention was there, in the woods, and only 30% was present at the seminar.
