Come with me...
|
come down...
|
Feel the wiry tree tops brush against your skin
Feel that shock of coolness, the immediacy, the intimacy
Ahhhhh, yes...
relief! |
Surrender sight, see with your fingertips...
find her broad, waxy skin
|
Allow her body to lead you down,
down... |
And now,
sense those bits of light?
sense those bits of light?
Let your body be drawn in, bow to your curiosity...
Yes, that's it.
Welcome, you've arrived.
This is IMAGINAL WORK.
You may now have a glimmer of a feel for this work - the imaginal, slow, dream-like quality of it. I find that sometimes, often, the parts of us that are most guarded, wounded or sensitive are not keen on being touched or prodded directly. Here, a circuitous approach can be useful. I find that when we step adjacent to all that is known and confirmed around us, and into a realm conjured by our imaginations, we find ourselves wandering down unexpected paths. We stumble upon beings, landscapes, and objects unknown or forgotten. When we step into this imaginal reality, our story-spun subconscious, allied with spirits of place and memory, offers up the symbols needed to make meaning.
Though sessions often inhabit this realm, there are times when what is needed most is devout attention to the immediate, tangible reality. In these instances, untangling stories and spells with words is the most potent medicine. We listen and follow this path when called. Various forms of role-play often find their way in, sometimes as a tool to coax a shy aspect of self to engage in conversation. At times funneling fierce praise into a part or the whole of a person is what's called for. And sometimes playful and/or ritual 'homework' is apropos. The focus across all expressions of these one-on-one support sessions is to create an opening for hidden feelings and beliefs to arise through gentle, imaginative and unconventional means. |
Availability:
This work is here for you, available when the need is alive and calling. Straying from a predictable weekly, bi-weekly or monthly frequency, Imaginal Work's availability reflects the mercurial nature of our feelings and experience. Session slots become available two weeks in advance. You're encouraged to reach out when the need compels you and schedule accordingly. |
