It’s a curious thing, the universe within. I am only just beginning to sense it. Really, just beginning after 37 years. Only when something is aching or something is hurt or tight do I feel the body and its insides, when some food has upset me or its uncomfortable in my head. To feel within when none of things are happening is something else. Something completely different. I want to explore this curiosity further and further.

At one stage of relaxation I was a keen apprentice, suddenly, learning the art of relaxing a thigh. From whom I was learning I do not know. The feeling was at the edge of thought and the edge of dreams, where the two meet. A little snore escaped.

I awoke early, 0545 after a good rest after a light supper – C made some wheat free bread rolls. I rested until ten to seven then began, after a wash. I’ve gone back to the beginning, with Basic Yoga for Dummies on video. I’ll write more about this recording later, but for now it’s enough to say that it is gentle enough, progressive enough, simple enough to keep me coming back.
