On one level, I must have known that something was coming. Something significant…and uncomfortable. With about 30 minutes left of class, I felt my body become restless and my mind impatient. I began wondering when class would be over. WHEN? my body demanded, WHEN!
It had been a great class. We worked the spine: strength, flexibility, energy, and light. I gave myself permission to let my body move freely — be it stiff or sensual. For that was the bodywork of the night.
But when the lights went out and the room went quiet (with the exception of the instructor and slow, steady breathing) the meditative focus changed.
