Hello,
First of all many thanks for your dedicated teachings and support.
I have some questions regarding spinal breathing.
Nothing seems to happen if I stick to the method as you describe it, however things begin to happen if I 'add' to it, following my intuition. I find for instance that visualising is not yieling much for me, however if I focus on moving the breath it gets better. If I omitt to focus my attention on the sacrum to concentrate solely on the third eye, it also seems to have positive effects. This is because I find it harder to feel my third eye, whereas I constantly feel energy in teh sacrum throughout my practice. Finally, if I go from third eye to sacrum on the inhale I can feel more powerful effects.
In spite of all that, I have been practising the method that you describe in your teachings to a T, in an effort to keep things pure and to not make any mistakes that could lead to imbalances. But I would like to know what your thoughts are on adapting the method to suit myself. Since childhood, I seem to have had the ability to move energy in my body. I know that if I follow my natural inclinations, I will do spinal breathing a bit differently. So my question is should I trust myself or will I be creating more problems for myself in the long run?
My second question is pertaining to the constant sensation of energy in teh sacrum (I find it hard to move it up). Although the feeling could be construded as pleasurable, I know it quite well. It is the feeling I have when I feel/move energy in my body. Only it is not moving very much and remains quite stuck in the sacrum, hence it is irritating in a subtle way. The mere thought of spinal breathing is enough to bring this sensation in my sacrum (writing this, I am getting it right now). One way around it, I feel, is to focus on the third eye as explained above. What are your thoughts on this please?
Many thanks for your help. I look forward to hearing from you.
Viviane
