Body symptoms disturb our inner balance or symmetry and bring awareness. Curing symptoms, taking medicine and having surgery is important, but then we can use the experience in our symptoms to learn more about ourselves.<\/p>\n<p>We also talked about the story of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/2015\/01\/13\/seattle-dog-rides-bus-public-transit-park-black-lab_n_6463364.html\">dog in Seattle<\/a> and how he doesn&#8217;t wait for his owner to get on the bus to go to the dog park.

Ask me whether<br \/>\nwhat I have done is my life. Others<br \/>\nhave come in their slow way into<br \/>\nmy thought, and some have tried to help<br \/>\nor to hurt: ask me what difference<br \/>\ntheir strongest love or hate has made.<\/p>\n<p>I will listen to what you say.<br \/>\nYou and I can turn and look<br \/>\nat the silent river and wait. We know<br \/>\nthe current is there, hidden; and there<br \/>\nare comings and goings from miles away<br \/>\nthat hold the stillness exactly before us.<br \/>\nWhat the river says, that is what I say.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The symptom explored was of a right knee that was unstable and weak and the way it was being managed was to be careful and gentle. Exploring the symptom involved amplifying the bending of the knee and the clicking sound it made, and then imagining it as a chicken leg and \u00a0chewing on the joint getting to the marrow, finding it nutritious and delicious! becoming superman and world president, creating more excitement rather than war and more sustainability than peace. And bringing a relationship practice of 50-50 air time for each. Deep democracy and how to connect deliciously. Being the joint between. A right knee relationship way, making relationship conflicts more delicious to explore.<\/p>\n<p>In the small groups we explored the questions of<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>1. how do we relate from the core in relationships and in relationship to the world?<br \/>\n2.how can you bring your delicious nature into relationship.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In the forum we explored social norms that expect conversation and then went silent inside, meditated and brought out what happened for us. Each had a different experience. Experiences of play, relaxation, joy, no thoughts, fully present, melting, enjoyment, focus.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In our January Dreambody Medicine forum we explored the ideas of physics and the Higgs boson particle Large Hadron Collider and the idea of symmetry and how a disturbance is needed to create life.
