BEING OPEN TO THE SPIRIT
We are holistic people - Body- Mind and Spirit. We are gifted with Reflective Consciousness. Our consciousness is informed by many things not least by our senses and our emotions.
Our Reflective Consciousness can also assist us to integrate aspects of our Body-Mind with our spirit. We are born to relate to and encounter the Divine in an I:Thou relationship . This method of encounter of spirit- to - Spirit can be found in a variety of ways. A powerful method of entering into this spiritual encounter is to use our body and mind. A suggested way is shown below
