What is the relationship between your preconscious mind and your body?

Your preconscious mind is a place in your brain. It also is a state of mind. It is not your conscious mind or your unconscious mind, or your subconscious mind. It along with the other states of mind is a level of intelligence that results from the flow of energy through myriad parallel layers of feed back, self-referential loops intrinsic to all of your body’s biological and physical functions. It is more primitive and instinctual. It connects more directly to your body’s senses and motor control. It responds in nanoseconds to all of the environments around you. It responds before your conscious mind has a chance to muddy it up with self-controlling, risk averse thought processes. It sees, hears, smells, and tastes what is around you almost instantaneously. And it remembers things that your conscious mind cannot and does not want to remember. While in this state your body is allowed to bring all of its stored memory out into the open.

 

Your preconscious mind is your body’s home. It is the space in which your body lives and breaths. It is the space in which your body can tell its story through movement. These stories or spontaneous movement meditations communicate to the world around you who you really are. These spontaneous movement meditations carve out physical spaces for your body to create shapes that when shot through with energy become words in long and short energy based sentences. Your movement becomes language which can tell your story to those who have eyes to see with their bodies. Our bodies do not lie. Bodies know how to read other bodies even when our conscious mind do not want to see.

 

It is in this preconscious state that all bodies truly see and experience other bodies stories. The energy that flows through each of our bodies is taken in by other bodies and we share that energy as we tell our own body stories. Each of our stories is in part a shared collective story of what it means to be a body time and space.
