Hi,

When I try to imagine the spinal nerve, it's as though my imagination seems to deliberately disobey me. The image gets jangled, jumps all over the place, and it seems I'm being blocked from imagining it.

I'm worried I'll do more harm than good, as currently my imaginings turn into some weird jangled thread, multiple pictures flash in my mind, and I feel the energy going in a really erratic path up and down my back.

Could anyone advise? Had similar experiences?

Many thanks

Josh

Steve

Hi Josh,

Recommend you don't try so hard to visualize-imagine your spinal nerve. Just be easy with it, a general sense of the spinal nerve is good enough, you don't have to see or visualize it clearly. Instead use your attention and feeling to trace the spinal nerve up and down with the kinesthetic sense of feeling. 90% of people are more kinesthetically oriented than visual. Utilizing the kinesthetic sense (feeling) to trace the spinal nerve up and down has helped many to awaken ecstatic conductivity. Be easy with this too. Spinal breathing and tracing the spine does not have to be effort-full. Hope this helps a little.

Love and Light,
Steve

"trying to imagine" is the problem. The best way is to easily over time come to favor the imaginings. The central point is following the breath up and down the central channel and the all the rest of the instructions. The imagining is just like the mantra, we don't force to be anything.

I have the same experience as you, so I relax on that part of it. Yesterday I wasn't even trying to do it, and suddenly I was imagining the whole thing, very clear; no direct visual picture yet, but who cares. I can look out the window and see a tree.

Thank you Steve and Jo-Self, the two answers resolve my question perfectly.

I'm more kinaesthetically oriented, and I find it easier to trace the spinal nerve using this sense.
