Are you curious about how your state of being can have an impact on the people and the world around you? Have you noticed that when you are feeling melancholy, the world around you seems melancholy as well? Perhaps you have had the experience of being in the presence of a joyful human who amplifies the joy inside of you. If emotions can be contagious, what about openness? Can your openness be a gift and open those around you?
In this 29 minute compilation from the 1000 Hour Teacher Training, Sedona, October 2023, John discusses how we have the capacity to open the world around us from our own openness.
Using your own openness to open others is one of the greatest gifts you can give this world, particularly in those moments when all your body and heart wants to do is close. Your mind and emotions follow the body, so by taking the shape of openness and holding the pose, you have the power to change the energy of the moment for you, and those around you.
