"Little by little, one travels far."
J. R. R. Tolkien
I am an avid reader and therefore I travel extensively. Nestled into my favorite reading space, I extend into the depths of fiction and accelerate into non-fiction cultural belief systems. The mind is so expansive it can be transported anywhere.
As I was reading about spiritual meditation and Shamanic Breath Work, I came across and interesting definition between the two principals. In meditation, a person travels inward to discover and develop parts of themselves in the inner realms of wisdom. In Shamanic Breath Work, an individual travels outwards into external realms of past historical experiences.
So there are a multitude of segments both within and outside of our lovely selves. Our body houses the skills and tools needed for full life to unfold. It is no wonder then, our body suffers pain which originates through our mental and physical activities. (Science is finally declaring the connection between the body and the mind.) Instead of medication, we could work on prevention through restorative activities and appropriate self care.
