Check all that apply
Where were you? What were you doing? What sparked it? (Memory, image, conversation, moment...)
Where did you start emotionally? Where did you land? What did your body do? (Expansion/contraction, warmth/cold, pressure, openness, tightness, movement, stillness...)
Who's the voice? What wound is being tended? What's the transmission?
Is there play here? Absurdity? The ridiculous seriousness of being human? What's light about this one?
Not "everyone" - specifically who? Someone struggling with... someone who feels... the part of me that...
Trying to make it say something specific, editing while channeling, wanting it to be "good"...
Words arriving unbidden, body relaxed, surprised by what appeared...
Fear of judgment? Exposure of something hidden? Attachment to how it's received?
