This episode is about the profound connection between sensation and intimacy. We explore the four fundamental desires of life: love, visibility, purpose, and connection, and how they are communicated through the language of sensation. We discuss the practice of ‘OM,’ a method of expressing and experiencing these elements, and how it can vary from uplifting to dark. We also explore the concept of the ‘essential self’ and how it can be drawn out through layers of protection, often formed as survival skills. We discuss the importance of using our felt sense to guide us beyond these layers to touch the truth. Finally, we delve into the art of perceiving when the essential self emerges and how to find the ‘optimal light’ that Eros expresses. Tune in to learn about this primitive skill and how to navigate it.
