Mindfulness: dangerous business

As someone who has utilized mindfulness as the cornerstone of my own healing process I have to say that what is wrong with most pop treatments of meditation in general is that they fail to warn the reality. It's taken years of profound mindfulness practice that has demanded going deep into the darkest parts of the human psyche...in this process I've learned how to listen to my body and follow my own guidance. I've learned to shut out all the multiple conditioned voices of our ugly capitalistic system and come back to myself. ... What they don't tell you is that mindfulness in process...deep profound, honest mindfulness can alienate and isolate while on the way to well-being.

Somatic imperative: collection

NEW POST -- I coined the term “somatic imperative” a while back as my journey seems locked in by what my body needs. In surrender I watch and learn as my body does what it knows. The animal wisdom, seemingly divine in nature takes over and knows the nature of things. These injuries this body has had to heal are mindblowingly complex. They are interwoven into the body and clearly show that the body and mind are one. I had no choice by to listen to and respond to my body in meditation so that I might heal. Try as I might, no one in medicine or anywhere else had answers. I had become my own doctor and scientist. I researched continually and started to put both my experience and that which I learned in reading together.

I have tics and strange movements and I often have a raging swollen face and mouth due to the infection and tardive dyskinesia that causes the tics and movements and general disability. I look bad, I move funny and I make weird noises. Very occasionally it's all quiet enough that I venture out among the cruel humans, those members of our species, that make people whom they perceive as odd feel really bad for existing.
