Resting point and zeroing
The essence of the path: This is the moment when the body finally switches to relaxation, to its true healthy form, and from there, the path to restoration and healing is possible. The still point is liminality, when for a split second our pulse seems to stop, we become zero. This is where Alice falls in the rabbit hole, this is what it means to touch the bottom with her heel, this is the lowest point of the parabola of passing through a crisis. This is when the weapons are laid down and the obsessive state of struggle collapses. And peace finally arrives.
Returning to the body and restoring stillness. When the mind is overwhelmed and strength is depleted, our physical supports are the first to give way. Through body practices—the nourishing warmth of cocoa butter, the precise acupressure of traditional Japanese medicine, the gentle, embracing and rocking rebozo sheets—the "freeze" gently melts away, the body remembers what it feels like to safely relax, and the foundation for future movement is laid.
