What a session! For me it was the fourth time going on a breath journey with Shaboy, but the first time in a group with fellow DW travelers. It was so nice to see the faces behind some of the names of DW and at the same time have some familiar ones to share such a experience with. I got a smile from ear to ear when the meeting started and we got to see each other for the first time.
After the introduction Shaboy thought a hart centred meditation practice and from it I emerged calm and peacefull and through the look of Shaboy's eyes you could see the love radiating from him. Throughout the breathwork session, this was the place I tried to remember. Breath in, hart expands, breath out, love spreads. We went into the breath journey that contains of 4 stages. From stage 1-3 you build up in breathing intensity guided by Shaboy and music and in stage 4 you get back to normal breathing. In stage 1 - 3, I was aware of my body, having big cramps in my body and some shocks trough my lims, which are caused by a drop in CO2 levels in the blood which I was familiar with from earlier sessions. About 3 times during the first 3 phases, I had a thought, that became so vivid I stopped breathing and got caught up in it untill I became aware of the fact I stopped and got back into the rythem. Breathing got challenging after maybe an hour as I noticed my breaths were shallow and I was very occupied with trying to take deep breaths again. About 5 minutes before the end of stage 3, I finally got a rythem that felt natural and the breaths felt like waves. Colors started to emerge also in waves and I continued breathing deeply on the rythem of the music.
Next, stage 4 begins and Shaboy invites us to breath at our own pace. Now the journey really begins! I came into a deep state of conciousness, and although thoughts did arrive, they were far on the surface as I was breathing super deep and slow. Halucinations emerged, first seeing face shapes and later geometrical figures like at the start of a psychedlic experience. Thinking back, it was like I was experiencing the passenger inside observing. What a beautifull experience. A new song came on where they sang 'love is now, now is now'. I had to cry, which, given my intention of healing, was welcomed.
The last song, 'happy' comes on as on omage to HappyKB and we slowly get up from our mats. Everyone is still coming to as we start sharing experiences. It was beautifull to hear the other people's journeys as I wasn't the only one who went on a trip. Minds were blown. After saying goodbye I go to bed and have some wild dreams. Zacharia shows up at my doorstep for a visit and I'm finding out my dog now has two protheses for front legs.
Sunday I felt really exhausted and just a bit down. A friend came by as he was in the neighberhood and I didnt really feel like talking. After he left I started to feel guilty about it as he is not in a good place. As I started writing things down I realized that this is one of my very old habbits! When feeling sad I put some guilt to it to make me feel worse. So this realization was the cherry on the pie for me. What a journey and so powerfull to do it together with a group. Looking forward delving back in with Shaboy at the helm. Thanks brother Shaboy for another beautifull journey and thanks to my fellow travelers for your company on this trip. Much love!
