Exploring the six senses on the physical, ego, 
social and non-sense level

(click here for explanation)

So now lets get into pairs and aura – stand facing partner palms touching- eyes closed spin three times and try to touch palms of other person

What senses are involved in this?

In order for you to spin you need the physical senses

you need to understand the instruction and use them them to control your body (ego), 

you need to interact with another person and as some of you have just done

- share that experience (social)

and final what is behind all this- how do we know that we know? (Non-sense)

Non-senses is a bit like looking a cinema screen and watching life unfold before you.

So  our mind can send us in a spin and we get off center.

Meditation – awareness – mindfulness is about getting back to our center.

One way we can reduce the spinning is to watch what we give the senses. Just like with eating if you eat rotten food you get a bad stomach ache. So it is the same with the other senses.

Can you give some examples of food for the senses?
Hearing- Sound – like music

Guided meditation on the six senses and gratitude.
