However, when we are in touch with our genuine self, with
that intrinsic space of well-being we're all entitled to,
we'll have benchmarks that show up, including:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A heightened sense of humor
(we lighten up)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Recharged
self-confidence
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A renewed sense of purpose
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
More clarity in communication
Said Rolf, this is the vital index of one's psycho-spiritual
development)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A break from our cycles of worry
(says Dr. Herbert
Benson, author of The Relaxation Response)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
But perhaps more important, we can't help but spread this aroma toward others, from which I've developed my own 'Fundamental Principle': "Well-being is self-extending."

'When people feel pleasure, as they usually do during a
massage, they focus on the
present moment
rather than staying involved with worries and preoccupations.'
- neurochemist Candace Pert

'Well-being is
self-extending.'
(We can't help
but pass it on.)

To achieve these spaces in life with any degree of regularity is
not an act of selfishness, I would suggest, but an exercise in
maximizing our life's potential. I'll leave it to you to determine whether my instructional video on the art of massage helps
provide such a roadmap in a way that works.
