Ok so my first focus that I picked out of my bag was WORKING WITH CLEAR FEET.
this to me was fairly comfortable as I have a clear connection that runs down my legs, into my feet and into space. This is something that I can visualise well.
I imagined during this week and in particular Katye's class that the floor was really hot. This then made my movements faster and that my feet never stop in one place. This therefore enables me to travel around the room. The clarity of the 'hot' floor made the articulation of my feet clear and concise.
There is something also about the more I think about clear feet the more it becomes about creating a stable structure. This means that the connection with my feet to the floor becomes extremely clear and then travels up through me body to my core. This then makes me stable.
Also with clear feet I am noticing that I can track certain pathways in an easier way. For instance I can track long curves with clear points of contact on the floor. This helps with my pathways as I find travelling a little confusing sometimes. In that if I don't see a purpose to travel to a different area in the space I tend to just stay in the same place moving in circles.
So far this magic bag game seems to be working. Although this is my first week trying out the game. However it has given me a clear focus that I can build upon and in a few weeks time I will be trained to slip into attention and concentration without having to select a specific focus.
Going back to this idea now can you identify a clear focus without the use of the bag?,, Maybe you have a few that you are interested in and you stick with them to explore them to their limits.
