Stretching Beyond Limits
On Friday I received my very first Thai massage. Boy was I in for a surprise.
My husband Clayton, who recommended I go, already told me - this was not like any massage he’s ever experienced. It was really about stretching the body beyond perceived limits.
Our masseuse, just back from Thailand, was also a professional dancer. Which made her approach especially potent. Because feels the massage is a dance between herself and her clients. The rhythm and flow – melody – set up an integral harmony. So, of course, I was very intrigued.
She explained beforehand, how other massage did not give her the rhythm and flow she feels when on the mat doing Thai massage. Yes, I lay on a mat, not a massage table.
I must say, I’m planning to see Kala once a week from now on. The experience was akin to hearing the universe inside my body.
I know, it sounds strange, but let me explain. As Kala was gently touching my body at first, I could feel the inner meridians activating. As she pressed and unlocked pockets of what felt like swollen and hardened parts of my body, I let go. I had to go very deep. Since there was a gentle rhythm in her own bodily movements and as well as her touch, I was able to release tension and relax more deeply than I previously thought possible.
Very soon this mega stretching triggered sparks in my brain, almost like fireworks of light. Then I realized, my God, my body is a temple! And I could vividly feel my inner and outer temple waking up.
After she finished, Kala asked me if I drink a lot of H2O.
Yes, I replied, "a gallon a day."
She said, "I can always tell by how well a person responds to the pressure I place on their body, how much water they drink. Most people are dehydrated."
Makes sense. Water lubricates, nourishes and stretches the body.
Boy am I glad I took that ‘risk’ last week. Now I’m embracing both exercise and massage as a Must in my life. Being stretched to my limits feels, well, like waking up to a renewed me. In fact, I feel limitless.
Warm Regards,

P.S. Aside from drinking plenty of water and stretching, you can embrace and nourish your inner universe with rhythm, melody and harmony. All of the above trigger an awakening - an inner awareness.
