The experience of relating with the environment around us is a direct experience. It happens, as we are present for it, and is happening all the time. Often we are not present for it. If we are thinking about an email we want to send or a new app we want to download, we are simply not experiencing the moment-to-moment exchange between the sensations inside the body and where it comes in contact with the environment.  

Why does this even matter?

It matters because its role as a part of our system is a good one.  It may become our responsibility to know how it is doing, what its needs are, and how it communicates to us and others. The body communicates in subtleties and we may someday need to develop the language to know how to communicate with it.  

As we come to recover and practice using the senses and sensations we rekindle intuition. When we are in line with intuition then we are a powerful force in this world. Much like the flower that emerged from the intelligent mystery under our feet, so too does our intuition emerge from that space as well. Through being in alignment with our spiritual and energetic body – we are able to harness that energy as well. Imagine having the intuition of a flower inside us?

This unfolding takes curiosity, willingness, time, risk-taking and desire – all of which we already possess. This is an area that technology cannot help us, at least not yet. There is no app to download that can mimic the beauty and subtlety of our eyes landing on a flower and feeling ourselves as the flower looking back.

This is how being alive reigns. 

Imagine walking barefoot on the ground and feeling your way into a new dimension of living.
