From Head to Heart

Use the imagination of 'no head' and a more loving way of relating to shift the center of life from mental analysis toward the heart's wholeness.

Open-endedCore: Witnessing

Practice style

  1. While walking or sitting, briefly imagine that you have 'no head.'
  2. Move attention toward the sensations and warmth in the chest.
  3. In relationship, practice a little more love and giving, and a little less calculation.
Do Not Lose the Witness
The method is only an entrance. Whether it uses breath, dance, sound, darkness, sitting, or relationship, what matters most is gradually seeing what is happening rather than only chasing an experience.
