All Motion Originates From the Belly

Books have been written describing the mysterious power available to us as we learn to center our consciousness within the sacred dwelling place of the belly. All control emanates from the belly area. Physical, emotional, and transcendental awareness will unify itself here. This will bring the highly-relishable experience of full absorption into our consciousness of essential oneness with everything. And this naturally includes the vitality procured from a beautiful treatment of Nuad Borarn
In Sanskrit, the mother language of all Indo-Aryan cultures, the word for navel is NABHAR. Nabhar means ‘Bright shiny stone that solves and remedies’. In other Semitic languages navel means ‘to prophesize and to foretell’. In Greek navel is Omphallus. In Latin it is umbilicus. We are blessed to know this wisdom and even more so to put it into practice! WHY??

To acquire our vital birthright which are cherished feelings of well-being, joy, and robustness! We have been advised by the ancient sages, yogis, and goddesses to prevail in transplanting our predominant awareness from the cerebral addictions circulating within the cranium to the more balanced somatic callings dwelling at the solar and navel areas. Indeed, at certain occasions, haven’t our parents and grandparents also uttered that our gut instincts are to be trusted whenever a decision was elusive in concluding? In the Orient, when children are having difficulty with a task, they receive guidance from an elder with a few taps on the belly. We are in a balanced state when our awareness factors in the pleasant influences emanating from the abdominal area. This is the fulcrum region between the forces of heaven and earth, the bio-well spring of natural and empowering choice.

It has been described that a Samurai is not holding the sacred sword with the hands but is holding the sword with the belly. The same is true for the archer and the calligrapher. Perfection of their art is the surrendering process to the natural flow of guiding grace glowing from the navel.

With Thai Bodywork and with the expertise that comes with years of practice, a secret understanding emerges. We feel that intensity, timing, focus and sequence [and many other considerations which make up the art aspect of massage] become of secondary importance. We come to know that of primary importance is our breathing and of course where and how it is produced.

Again, many books have been offered to us covering this exquisite subject. I personally have had occurrences through deep belly breathing disciplines that have been other-worldly indeed! I have spoken with friends experienced with yogic pranayama. We discuss a phenomenon called Transportation. There is much to share here, yet suffice it to be a strong and loving recommendation to discover for yourself the absolutely wondrous experience of concentrated belly and breathing control.

Love, Mukti
