Dear Dawn, Since I was about 6 years old, Ive been aware of a strong sensation in my sacrum. The only way I know to describe it is it feels like a blade is penetrating, its a sharp, painful feeling. What is this feeling? Love, Anonymous Los Angeles . California Dear Anonymous, Lets find out. When you have an hour or so, settle more fully into the feeling. Meet the pain with acceptance and compassion, focus all of your attention there. As you focus - get closer, feel the penetrating blade-like sensation more. Imagine climbing inside the sensation to get even closer. Feel the sharp penetrating sensation while also sensing your body as a whole. You may discover you are holding tension around the pain, tension you weren’t even aware of. Steadily begin to soften the muscles around the sensation, until your whole body is relaxed. What do you notice about the sensation now that tension has been released? How does your body feel? How do you feel in general? Scan your body again. What do you notice? The Tantric practice is often a spiral of concentric circles, plunging deeper and deeper as more and more is revealed. Now that you are more in contact with the painful penetrating sensation - get even closer. What happens when you feel within the feeling now? What happens when you release deeper layers of tension in your body - and mind? When you feel complete, take a few minutes to absorb what you have discovered in your practice. Let go, sink into your body and the support underneath you. What did you discover? Much love Dawn Read more: mynewsletterbuilder/email/newsletter/1412141177
