What does it feel like to rest into the couch? Used sitting to ask what support feels like to connect to the feeling tone of support. Words like, relaxed, safe, smooth, easy..., and noting these are feelings that rose up from within (not that the teacher tells them how support should feel)
what are other ways you are supported? Being with family, children, listening to music, warm bubble bath, hot tea...
we began to connect the feeling tone to real world actions support
Partner exercise..sitting back to back to connect to support.
discussion of tension as a way to feel supported, and asking what part of tension in our lives can we begin to let go of.
discussion of becoming comfortable in the unknown, turning it over...etc
told real world story of boat turning around to St. Thomas, but connected with Stevie Wonder!
discussion of the value of wonder and surprise in our lives, and not knowing it all
listing ways in our own lives where it 'seemed' like something 'bad' happened, and it turned out OK. (Many talked about even going to jail and getting sober.)
