In this exploration, we'll discover how emotional hurt and physical pain share similar patterns of bracing and disconnection. I'll guide you through gentle qigong movements to soften the heart area and explore how tenderness itself can be experienced as the refinement and sensitivity of nature’s flow itself, rather than shutting down. Through this practice, you might find how tenderness is our resilience. It allows emotional hurt to flow as part of the free flow that’s always given—as nature's grace.Some possible takeaways from today's practice:Understanding the parallels between physical and emotional bracingLearning qigong movements to soften and open the heart areaDiscovering how tenderness is part of the fullness of nature’s flowFinding resilience within sensitivity rather than through hardeningDissolving Pain in Nature’s Flow Series:What can transform our relationship with pain and suffering? Perhaps most simply: recognizing our nature as part of Nature's flow. Resisting pain and hurt can make it persist, but what if we could experience these unpleasant messages in our body as sharing the same qualities as all of Nature's flow—as finely free and fully in the flow of this moment. In the first half of each session, we connect to these foundational qualities through guided practice. Then we'll go on an adventure into the underlying experience of pain of all kinds—from physical booboos to heartaches to blahs and fatigue. Over 15 years ago, Dr. Les Fehmi's book "Dissolving Pain in Open Focus" saved me and opened up a world of possibilities I'd never imagined. Over the last 10 years, it has been the teachings of Master Wonchull Park on the 3 qualities of nowflow that helped this make sense to me—giving me a simple way to embrace as ever-present what can sometimes seem magical. It's with a full heart that I share what has been so meaningful to me in this hour of self-discovery, knowing that these resources we might find in books can become real when we discover them for ourselves. I look forward to our discoveries together.Thank you for Being with Being.Subscribe to freely offered substack Unfolding Together: https://mackenziehawkins.substack.com/ Join freely offered live events in our community inr adventures and Insight Timer: https://inr-adventures.circle.so/c/live-sessions
