RamDev – Healing at the Edge – Ep. 108 – Receiving the Body

RamDev offers wisdom on receiving the body as an energetic entity we can utilize to enter into non-dual awareness.

This time on Healing at the Edge, RamDev offers some wisdom on:
  • The challenge of making our life a practice
  • Experiencing this in the body for full presence
  • Embodiment perceived as emptiness
  • How unresolved trauma can get locked in the body
  • Relaxation as a way to surrender
  • Regular stress versus mindful stress
  • Samskaras and psychological imprints on the body
  • A somatic angle to the tantric-three-step
  • The inherent wakefulness within the body
  • Receiving the body as an energetic entity
  • Ways that we can be in a flow state with our body
  • A guided practice to enter into beingness

“Resting in the body is difficult because unresolved trauma is locked in the body. There are sensations in the body, painful sensations. Relaxation is really an act of faith. Relaxation is about trust and surrender and trust and surrender are difficult as long as there’s trauma there.” – RamDev
