Touch

Humans of our time store a lot of tension in our bodies. We disrespect the natural rhythms. We overeat, overwork and are filled with all sorts of chemicals. Now more than ever, we need touch.

Touch reconnects us with our true self. It liberates us. It takes away some of that stress. It opens us up to new possibilities and gives us renewed confidence.

As an energy worker, I discovered that there is no such thing as negative energy. There is energy that feels heavy and dense but that doesn't make it bad. It has taken on this form because it has been blocked. Usually because of a belief we hold that doesn't suit us. One such belief is that I am only valuable because of what I do. This belief causes us to overdo it. We are rarely valued for doing nothing in our culture. In fact, this non activity usually generates jealousy or contempt in those around us.

As Tommy Tiernan says, "a no loitering law is basically a law against doing nothing".

So what I am proposing is to take some time to do nothing. Then while you're doing nothing, you could value yourself for all that you do and all that you don't do. Then let someone touch you or you touch someone, or both.

You'll feel happier. I promise.
