How do our bodies speak to one another?
Have you experienced being in a room with a group of people when someone comes in and suddenly it feels like all of the air/energy in the room gets sucked into that person? It feels as if this person is taking up all of the space in the room. You do not literally see them take up more space but you feel as though this is happening. It feels as if energy is being drained from your body.
ShapeShifting is exactly the opposite of that. We amplify everyones body energy so that there is an increased flow of energy to all other bodies in the room. This is the phenomenon known as resonance.
Resonance occurs when the natural vibration frequency of a body is greatly amplified by reinforcing vibrations that are at the same or nearly the same frequency from another body. Resonance is a kind of energy flow that connects one body with another. When you pluck a guitar string, it vibrates. The vibrating frequency of that string causes fibers in the guitar body to vibrate at a similar frequency and the sound is amplified. As energy flows in and through our bodies, it creates a common frequency to which each of our bodies vibrate. A kind of synergy occurs. And together our bodies speak to each other with clarity and power.
Each of our bodies tells a story through its movement. And each of our bodies reads those movements. When we allow our bodies to fully tell their stories through the movement that is expressed in spontaneous movement meditations, other bodies recognize and truly see what is being said. And that encourages other bodies to do the same. We become part of each others stories. We amplify each others body story. This is resonance.
The place in each of us where this resonance happens is in our preconscious minds. It is the place where our bodies live and breathe. It is the place where we are set free to tell the stories that each of our bodies have been longing to tell. It is the place where we truly recognize one another’s stories. And it is the energy flowing in and through each of our body’s that binds us together.
This is resonance. This is ShapeShifting.
