Transforming your nervous system

Actors, Your nervous systems are alert and alive to your environments, which is why your nervous systems pick up what's beneath what's being said.

You sense in a way that other people don't, the vibrations of emotions sensations, a kind of psychic field in a way the implicit, the unconscious

If your nervous system is very vigilant, it will start to almost feel like it’s too much, 

and you'll get overwhelmed by it because it's a little bit like having no filter.

You're taking it all in and you feel exhausted by it, because you're feeling so much, so you have to shut it down, so you either fight it, flee or please. 

In the work that I wish to do with you is yes, you can have that sensitivity, and what we want to do is skillfully be able to take care of that nervous system and turn it from fight, flight freeze, please (which is a vigilant state of the “what's wrong attention”) to a sense of curiosity in the world.

It's okay not to know, because you're in the art form of not knowing and allowing a happening to occur.

Be surprised what moves through you

That's the skillful part that were working over these weeks is, can you get to know, the way you receive different environments, and the skills, and practices you can put in place, in order for you to come into a more alive alert stillness, so that you can receive all of the different elements, and then transform them into something that emerges, out of story.
