At the heart of play we give our self a place to balance, in our personal from of balance. We keep the inner psychic machinery working while not wearing it out. We reawaken our senses. We use the machinery so it doesn’t become stuck by disuse or gummed up with shame. It runs on the juices of engagement and excitement not on the anxiety or the restraints of time. Engaging and disengaging becomes a simple method of entering the playground and leaving it. Of opening a box of treasures and closing it.
Heart of Play Experience #1 Breathing Again
Attention to the mysterious game of breathing resumes. Those two quiet almost unknown spaces between the inspiration and the expiration and the expiration and the inspiration open into our awareness. They symbolically represent and manifest portals of a give and take in the play of breathing. Within the whole breath, a little attention comes to symbolize and indeed nest all of life.
