Somatic Zikr – The Swing, Part One
Part One: Releasing
Try this. Sit comfortably kneeling or on a chair and gently move your head and torso in the swing without words, and feel/notice the somatic experience of releasing. What is the feeling of release? Is it a letting go, like a sigh or an orgasm? Or a sense of freedom from constriction or unnaturalness, like releasing an animal back into the wild? Or opening a tight fist that has been clutching something for dear life, holding on to a point of view as if your life depended upon it, but then finding out you were mistaken, you had it all wrong.
