At times I’ve felt as though I’m a lightbulb disconnected from its power source. It’s been safer to remain unlit, unseen and within my boundaries. Sometimes the capacity to feel can be too painful, that it seems safer to remain numb.
Fortunately, there are people, places, moments and posture that encourage illumination.
Such awakenings stir sensations of infinite boundlessness.
In these moments, our doubts and pain dissipate. We feel embraced and able to lean into the unbound space, no longer afraid to feel or move to our fullest capacity.
We illuminate lightness from centre as if microcosmic suns. A dissolution of our limitations.
The light and elevated emotions radiate into all our moments, and touches those who surround us, so the energy becomes shared.
Physically moving from centre encourages a similar effect. Finding fluidity through all six limbs (tailbone and head included), we create space between our joints to allow the light to shine. These microcosmic spaces create a sense of length and breadth.
The aftertaste of taking up space continues long after the movement has ceased. Their resonations alter the space within and without.
Just a flicker of authentic light, a spark is enough to allow us to see and feel everything in a moment. Doorways to the infinite.
We are meant to feel it all, to be it all.
Illumined from with-in to with-out, beyond the edges.
“As permeated with limitless space, drenched in freedom. Radiant space above the head. The small self enters delicious omnipresence.”
