Twirling – Heart & Soul

We can do the exercise we can do whenever we are in fear. It is just a twirling of the arms.

The arms are relaxed by our sides and we twirl the right arm clockwise and the left arm anti-clockwise.

At first it’s easy to twirl the arms, then there is a bit of a resistance, as if you were stirring in a soup

or wafting in a cloud. You circle with both arms at the same time and become aware of any changes.

· Does it change how you are standing ?

· Does it change how you are breathing ?

· Does it change how you see things ?

· How do you feel while you are stirring these

two pots ?

You can do this until you feel a sigh or yawn, or a big breath.

· What else do you feel and experience ?

Now try to think of something that usually makes you afraid.

Keep twirling your arms.

Notice what happens:

· Do you feel the fear ?

· Or do you just know what it would be, but don’t actually feel it ?

· What did you discover ?

It is an exercise to bring you more into the body, connect your soul with you more firmly.

It also helps you keep your fears at a distance, mainly because you yourself, your soul, is anchored safely in your heart and body.

You are there, heart and soul, really present and your fears step aside.
