What does it mean to feel your body? How do you feel your body?<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/div>

<\/div>

Usually we feel sensations rather than a “body”, sensations of warmth, vibration, heaviness or lightness, fears or joys.<\/p>\n

Keeping and maintaining contact with the body with a regular practice such as Yoga or meditation allows you to feel the sensations associated with its functioning and then establish a link between the thoughts that constitute us and these sensations.<\/p>\n

These regular practices increase our ability to observe, so we can perceive subtly and “listen” to the body or usually we would be ignorant of the sensations and signals emitted.<\/p>\n<\/div>

“In Buddhist thinking, our human body is considered extremely valuable because it provides the necessary conditions for the realization of freedom and true<\/strong>happiness. We begin with a systematic training of attention to the body. <\/em>
\nWhether we are sitting, walking, eating or moving, we grow it. We develop the ability to establish ourselves in the life of the body.<\/em>
\nWe notice the suffering or well-being that go through it. We discover how it responds when your mind is clear or confused, when our heart is open or closed.<\/strong> We learn to consider with respect the mystery of physical life.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>

Attention to the body, supported by abyhanga massage, turns out to be a pleasant and simplified approach. When receiving the massage it is pleasant to establish a calm space, breathe, touch its serenity and observe the sensations present.<\/p>\n<\/div>
