TRANSCRIPT OF EPISODE
Sometimes you need to energize your body, mind and spirit quickly. Here’s a unique 10 minute tune-up session to activate energy, clarity and strength. We’ll be focusing on increasing elasticity in order to release trapped life force and get things flowing again. And when your energy’s flowing, your life gets going!
Welcome to the Light Body Activation podcast, where you can explore and directly experience developing parts of your energy system. My intention is to provide reliable, safe, life enhancing information that allows you to access parts of yourself that you may have never before identified or felt.
Today’s session will focus on encouraging the quality of elasticity in your body, especially in your tendons, ligaments and joints. When you experience physical, emotional or mental stress, there’s always a tightening in your body. Sometimes this resolves after the stress passes, but sometimes it doesn’t. Layers of unresolved compression build up over time. Tissues and joints become rigid and lose their elastic quality. Fatigue, weakness, irritability and depression become more common because the body chi is locked up and unavailable. It’s as if there is a bank account full of money that can’t be accessed anymore.
By encouraging elasticity deep in the body, stress matrixes soften. Energy that has been trapped is released and moves back into circulation. Because of this, you can often generate more flexibility and strength with the following process than you can using more traditional methods of exercise. You will feel more springy, more resilient and more alive. And by the way, the simple method to increase elasticity in your body that you’ll learn in this episode can be applied to any type of stretching or workout that you already do.
Why do we do any kind of self-care or development in the first place? So that we feel good. So that we can enjoy life. So that we have ample energy to engage in the present moment and relate fully to whatever and whoever is around us. When we feel strong and vibrant, we naturally look better and become more fit. The following process can help you do all of those things and be enjoyable to boot. I suggest you set yourself up in a quiet, comfortable space on the floor. Turn off your phone and make sure you won’t be disturbed. Whether you’re feeling tired, confused or anxious or you feel pretty good and want to feel even better, let’s get started. Here’s a 10 minute tune-up to energize and activate your body….

Conclusion
Notice how you feel in your body and your life during the next few hours. Bringing some attention to sensations and experiences will amplify the positive effects of the process. It sounds so simple, but bringing your consciousness into sensations in your body is a key to opening the door to the constantly unfolding present. It’s a key that you can use whenever you want to enter your life more fully and experience the peace and love that permeate the fabric of our world.
Thanks so much for your presence today. I really enjoy doing this work with you and look forward to another light body activation adventure soon.
