Feeling and Watching
You may have run across these videos of soldiers returning home to their families. The first time I watched one I was pretty quickly taken by the raw, unfiltered and authentic emotions in these short clips. The second and third time (over the next few days) I paid more attention to my inner experience ... the heat and movement through my heart, throat and eyes, the rising of sensation and emotion, the tears emerging and rolling down my face.
You might like to watch these as a mindfulness practice.
How present can you be to the energy and feelings moving inside you?
