Maybe what we call the mind, is just the nature(=the body) that has become aware of itself. Maybe the mind has no existence on its own, just like the reflexion in the mirror doesn't exist on its own.
Just redirected back here by my friend Eric Robins in the Block Therapy Community. I have since also been writing about related themes of the connections between adverse experiences and symptoms via the concept of body memories https://garysharpe.substack.com/p/adverse-experiences-stressful-episodes
I don't really subscribe so much to the idea of "grounding" energy, down and out of the body, so much these days. Anxiety is usually mediated by the nervous system, and to a degree the ego, by allowing some sensations and pushing down others. This creates a situation where there's often a sense of nervous energy at the periphery of our awareness.
The kind of approaches I use are 1) feel the body more 2) bring more feeling into the belly.

Agreed.
What's the best way to ground nervous energy or alleviate tension in the neck, jaws and shoulders?

I really need to study this for my own personal healing .
