Good Tomorrow, if you can, go out into nature and spend some time watching the movement of the whole. See how clouds move, trees swing, leaves wiggle, grass moves, insects, birds - all move all the time. Then move focus to sensations and see how they too are in constant motion, thoughts come and go,...

Hi I'm happy with your answer! Lie on your back and relax. Have a look at the ceiling. There is thought to be a distance between that what is thought to be known as ‘body’ and that what is labelled ‘ceiling’. Close your eyes. Now focus on the space between body and ceiling. Take your time, breathe i...

I'm glad we agree.
I'm on Facebook, btw. and I think you already have my email address? PM me if you want either anyway.

Hi Lindy, Many thanks for your honest and open response. I really appreciate it. Like you (I think), I think we've come to an impasse. You've done some excellent work, but my sense is that you've now done as much as you are able to do (at least at present) with this method. One option would be to co...

Well done, Sara, good honest investigating there I can’t feel into the sense of self because I can’t find it. It’s not there in my chest, like I said in my previous post. There isn’t something to settle my awareness on in order to investigate it. excellent. lovely Many experience the ‘me’ as being c...

Hi Lindy I've had a helpful discussion with one of the more experienced guides this morning - and she suggests you complete the following questions - they should with identifying what next. Here they are: 1) Is there a separate entity 'self', 'me' 'I', at all, anywhere, in any way, shape or form? Wa...

I appreciate your being honest, Lindy! xx

Good Morning, Sara, I can't find a 'sense of self' in direct experience - it is an idea overlaid on the flow of my experience. good Let’s say that you have lost your keys and you swear that you left them in your coat. You go to look and check all the pockets - the keys are not there. You swear they ...

OK.
Can you actually find "a sense of self"?

It feels good to notice this, a sense of ease and brightness

aw! lovely

It is interesting to notice that my sense of self is mostly associated with the heart space.

is this an idea? a thought? or based on direct experience?

What was the experience of that exercise like?

That's really lovely, Sara I especially like the water analogy - it works so well! and ‘Sara’ is just the story of my experience - exactly. Lovely again. Were you surprised to notice that? Similarly ... Thought points to the feet being ‘down there’, so presumably you are above your feet. Where are y...

great Go out into nature and spend some time watching the movement of the whole. See how clouds move, trees swing, leaves wiggle, grass moves, insects, birds - all move all the time.

In itself, a memory thought is no different to a general thought just so! Great noticing! Find a comfortable place to sit or lie. Take in a few deep breaths to settle the dust and then relax for a bit. Spend only 30 to 60 seconds on each component of this exercise. Bring your awareness to your enti...
