Passive Meditation
The Center of the Whirlwind
Neither suppress the emotion nor dump it on others. Let it be expressed in a safe space while remembering that there is a center watching it.
Practice style
- When alone, allow a strong emotion to be re-experienced.
- Let body and voice express it without harming yourself or anyone else.
- At the same time keep some awareness, watching the emotion move like a whirlwind.
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.
