RE: Week 4 use of Intention. Wow! Did I get a bodily reaction when Jeddah asked us to think of our environment along with something we intended to do there. Before the start of the current lunar year (February 7, 2008) I extensively re-arranged a particular area of my study using feng shui principles for the purpose of successfully carrying out a long-cherished intention.
As soon as I thought of the environment with that intention, the bodily sensation became quite painful. During the initial phone meditation on Saturday, I was unable to clear this pain completely.
I'm not stating this as a "problem." I'm merely observing, and wondering if others have had to deal with what felt like an out-of-alignment intention. I greatly appreciate this communication directly from the body, and accept the challenge of exploring further to see what aspect of my environment, in relation to this intention, might be out of alignment.
Questions: Are others studying with Jeddah familiar with the "Felt Sense" as it is used in the cognitive psychology technique called "Focusing"?
