Round Two!

The next workshop opened with a meditation warmup. All of the students in the group went onto our backs and closed our eyes. Jim spoke softly about a forest we were walking through. He said the forest was familiar and safe. I was immediatly relaxed and open to the exercise. He spoke about a child in the forest dressed like a wild jungle kid, and I saw her as a young version of myself. By the end of the meditation that's exactly who he said ti was. The children were us and we can't forget about them and about having fun. With that we got up and starting screaming the magic word: NO! It feels sooooo good to scream No! REPEATEDLY. I say it for every time I wish I could have said no or for every time I have been angry.
The workshop is somewhat emotionally exhausting but at the same time it relieves me of so much. The physicality of throwing my arms down while screaming like a wild beast feels soooo good. I can't wait for what he shows us next! :)
