A conversation with the living intelligence within us, through awareness, breath, sensation and presence.
The Inner Night Sky
What does Cellular Awakening mean to me?
Like during the new moon, when its reflective light is blocked by the sun and the night sky becomes a deep, rich, profound darkness – so the stars can become more vibrant and expressed to our human eyes – when we draw our focus inward, we can perceive our interoceptive richness in an amplified way.
At the beginning of a practice, before the churning and activations have begun, we can perceive and sense our aspects and layers of experience as they are, and take an interoceptive, sensual, full-body, somatic polaroid shot of the expressions that are present.
We keep that “photo” tucked in our back pocket, to be used as a personal data record for the future.
Because inevitably, upon engaging our awareness consciously, interacting and immersing in every part of our sensational experience through the practice, an analogue metamorphosis unfolds of some kind.
Turning the Galaxies Back On
Circulation intensifies inner communications.
Dormant, dull areas become alive and pulse with fresh excitement. The communities of the cellular, elemental, molecular and atomic life that we are composed of become activated, charged, woken up.
Aspects of our body-mind-energetic forces come back online.
We turn the light switches of our sensational galaxies on, or we gradually fade them back into full vibrancy, so they can pulse their communications optimally and with greater clarity.
Our awareness is like the sun, a powerful force for nourishing life to flourish and express.
We can shine it without judgment upon any aspect of our experience, to hold any expression that wishes to unfold with steady love. A kind of love that is pure, as it’s simply the essence of your powerful presence.
The Frequency of Presence
Just as you have experienced at some point in your life’s timelines, the power of presence and acknowledgment from another person- remembering a moment when someone sincerely acknowledged you in some way.
You received that, and it amplified the voltage or the glow of positive energy and force in your body – maybe even completely changed your “mood” or “made your day” because it felt like a gift.
A message of heartfelt frequency.
A message that was not only given through words, but through the transmission of the deliverer’s emotive and energetic intentions and presence. Something that could be received through your skin and absorbed into your cells, reminding your body to remember something profound, or simply beautiful.
Just as a simple, genuine smile and hello can pass a frequency of such beauty and truth that it can completely shift your own frequency, when we turn that action inward, to our complex compositions of life within, with sincerity and full presence, our communities of cells respond, awaken and shift their frequency.
Learning a New Language
Cellular awakening is an interaction – a conversation.
It is like going to a new country open-minded, curious, full of wonder, to learn a new language and culture, with new foods, smells, music, traditions and sights. With all of our senses open and listening to absorb the expressions that have been woven there through time.
It’s not a one-way street that’s done through force, like flicking on a light switch and expecting the lightbulb to turn on- but it’s more of a collaboration.
More listening than expecting, more immersion or merging with the intelligence that’s already buzzing – and participating in awe as a metamorphosis ensues.
Activate, Then Listen
We assist the awakening through certain conscious activations, compressions, efforts, where we place full presence in the nucleus of our sensational experience.
To feel deeper into each moment than we thought could be possible. To activate a momentum of circulatory communications.
And then we pause, feel, allow, steep, and let the intelligent forces of our physical and metaphysical somatic intelligence recalibrate, celebrate, integrate and shift.
Breath is a language that the body understands. So if we can temporarily put our own calculated logic in the back seat, and allow our breath and the light of our awareness to drive the vehicle, we can move from digital to analogue.
Coming Back Online
When we “awaken our cells,” everything comes online. Our senses become amplified, and our ability to connect clarifies. This awakening extends beyond the lines of our skin, to our environment, nature, each other, the earth – our innermost essence.
The feelings of “disconnection” are transformed into clarity and a sense of being at home in ourselves and on this earth when our cells are nourished through the momentum of inner circulation, intention, breath, acknowledgment and communication.
This practice will be a process of curling and unfurling, squeezing and softening, compression and expansion, effort and surrender. It is through these contrasts that the concoction of bio-intelligence remembers its purpose and power.
When we are tired and have not given ourselves nourishment of some kind, we experience fatigue, a dullness. We feel “out of tune.”
Think of this practice, of the squeezing and efforts, of the breath and presence, as a nectar of nourishment for your cells. A little light, a little circulation, a remembering.
I love you,
