Don’t Forget to Breathe…
I’m sitting here unwrapped… literally… except for a blanket from the couch (so I guess I’m actually wrapped).
The reason I’m not wearing any clothes is because I just had a massage/Rolfing session from Barry. Kind of like the epitome of pain and pleasure in life (Rolfing can be painful before the pleasure, while the oily Swedish part of the massage is just messy along with the pleasure).
“Don’t forget to breathe,” Barry kept reminding me, as I would tense up.
“Be in the moment and just enjoy it.”
When I took that advice to heart, I was able to enjoy both the physical sensations and the emotional sensations that go with it. Yes, when the physical body is worked, it releases emotional energies that were stuck as well.
