The art of touch
Sensual healing restores the spirit and our passions deep within.
For couples this is essential IMO though the technique may be adapted to be done by yourself using feathers or just your own hands.... The healing begins with touch and breath. Breathing and feeling into areas of your body which are blocked or perhaps you are feeling disconnected from The goal of sensual healing is to lovingly connect you with all parts of your being. Body, mind and soul. (physical, intellectual and spritual) This is a connecting ritual that uses touch and breathing to connect you with your Creator, Mother Earth and your heart. It is important to be fully grounded ,to help the flow of emotion move through you. Be as clear of mind as possible, and remove all distractions from the room. It is ok for you to remain fully clothed but nudity removes the barriers of the ego. We were all born naked and vulnerable. Lie quietly, uncovered, on the your bed for a few minutes without anyone being present. Allow your vulnerability to be felt. Breathe slowly Your ego does not like to let go of control , it may make you feel quite uncomfortable. Breathe into this...trust... this feeling, too, will pass. Lay face down when your partner enters the room, they should use light fingertip strokes over your back, shoulders your scalp.. while gently speaking calming words, humming or softly singing...but somehow asking you to connect your breath to follow the touch. "breathe in as my fingers stroke down, breathe out as my fingers stroke up " Allow any emotion that presents itself to be felt… breathed into… allowed… then released, through your breath. Perhaps you have repressed feelings and it might be a little unsettling for you when you begin to allow yourself to feel. Be gentle with yourself... Breathe, and allow yourself to be. Sometimes there are tears. The key is to honor and allow whatever you are feeling , as you are feeling it. You are building layers of trusting you. When you are ready turn over, remain uncovered. When there is nothing to hide under where can you hide? You are ready to let go. To trust... Your partner keeps eye contact with you, resting the palms of their hands above your heart. Breathe...feel the touch .. |
