Early results at efforts to awaken machine


During the first 2 weeks of practicing the popcorn exercise, I maintained slow and steady movements so as not to reflexively move faster than my headbrain could track. This produced a subtle whole body sensing that would linger on throughout the day inbetween my concentrated efforts to force the headbrain to follow all the movements of the machine as a whole.After the first 2 weeks I came home from work and started painting one of the rooms in my home.( a four or five hour project with union breaks, over-time, ect.) At some point I decided to to increase the intensity of my efforts and in shorter, more concentrated bursts. A short while later my painting techniques became less methodical and more artistic. ( I have never before in my 30 plus years of painting, EVER felt artistic about it) A series of moving postures more akin to improvising. More smooth and fluid.I went the whole hog including painting the attic stair-well. The job was finished and I went to take a shower.

As I showered my movements were one 'whole' moving. I experienced my machine as a tingling electrical whole body sensing. An electrical vibration of body surrounding an observational platform. A rather heightened state or gradation of the waking state, perhaps. The whole intensity lasting the duration of the shower. In all fairness I should mention that I,ve had alot of practice in the shower with popcorning. It is the residual effects of the effort during popcorning that deliver the results, sometimes way after the initial efforts.

Do the exercises work? Is not the question.The question is: Are you working the exercises?
Stay tuned for more up-dates on " How every movement is an opportunity to work".
