Just finished a four day craniosacral class focusing on the emotional releases that often happen when working on clients. I'm feeling renewed and ready to practice my new skills, especially the idea of staying neutral as the therapist and trying not to lead the client physically or emotionally. Instead of trying to fix the client or the symptoms they came in with, instead of trying to to control or be attached to the outcome, it's a blending and melding with the tissue and the process, staying present and trusting that the client's body and psyche will lead me where it needs to go to unwind and to release.
As I'm writing this, it seems like an obvious metaphor for how I desire to live my life. Staying present with Spirit/myself/the process, following the flow of things, trusting that it will lead me to where I need to go. And wouldn't it be great if someday it didn't even feel like leading and following? But happened so naturally that it just felt like living? That is my prayer for today. May I be so in line with Spirit/the Flow that it is difficult to tell the difference.
