Inhabiting The Body

Thank you Judith for this article. When I am 'in' my body, I feel present, grounded and sensitive to who and what is around me. I feel alive and safe. When I'm not, I feel disconnected and unsettled. Something is off and I am not able to receive and/or discern as clearly. The first time that I remember truly being in my body was when I took a yoga class many, many years ago.... When, at the end of the class, we laid down on our mats for shavasana, I, remember ...... I had never ever felt my body so relaxed, so alive and so aware all at the same time. It seemed as if every part of my body...finger, toes, knees, neck...all of me, was quietly and subtling saying, ' here'.....and I felt I had come home.
