Day 5

am

Feels like I am back to how I was towards the end of the course, in terms of steadyness and togetherness. The feeling of completeness and a job done well, instead of some of the bodge jobs during the week. After a good night’s sleep till nearly 8, several minutes of anapana then moving through the body. This is a lot smoother too – right buttock, right upper arm, right foot arch, right side of face. No big shakes or ultra tightness although the arm movement was more rapid than ever in the space given by smoothness. My muscles are softer to the touch, my shoulders are lower, my belly is softening, as is my face.

pm

In the city, the sound of traffic strong at first and fading to mere vibrations. Car park anapana.
