I would like to share a few suggestions that have helped my clients manage chronic pain, anxiety, and release stuck energy between healing sessions. These recommendations have created profound shifts in my client’s lives.
Set an intention to keep your attention on whatever is happening in the moment.
Fully acknowledge and give space to every emotion, thought and physical sensation in your body to the best of your ability. When you are overwhelmed and start to compartmentalize your experiences, just be aware of that too. No judgment; it’s all good. Just notice what you notice.
Take time, if even only a few seconds, to acknowledge and create space around more subtle perceptions such as fatigue, restlessness, and anything that makes you feel uncomfortable. Notice any resistance, and do not resist the resistance. You will not believe how interesting this is.
This internal focus is one way to create a stronger connection to your body, as well as expand your consciousness and access deeper levels of your creativity and intuition. Your experience of life can become more effortless, more abundant, and even more fun.
Don’t take my word for it. You may feel exhausted in the beginning but just notice that, too. The pay off is huge.

Thanks Jeri! This is very timely, and useful, advice. I was just reading in an Amma Swamini’s book “Smiling Within” that awareness should be the first step toward enlightenment–even before devotion. I thought that was interesting coming from Amma. But that’s what I’m going to practice now!
