More Tips on Surrendering to the Plants in These Truffles
Sit quietly with your eyes closed. In your mind's eye, visualize how your lungs and ribcage expand and contract. Follow the rhythm fully and ride each cycle’s wave to its fullest extent. Try to be aware of the complete openness and connected fluidity in expansion (expansion of lungs and ribcage/slow inhaling) with the universe/creation/energy balanced by the nurturing and earthy, grounded hug of contraction (contraction of lungs/slow exhaling).
Notice the pause at the end of contraction before expansion starts again. It is more silent and still then the calmest waters. Focus on that completely tranquil and silent spot as long as you can without having to hold your breath. Try to stretch that perfect calm and silent spot back into expansion and if you lose it, don’t judge that you lost it, just reconnect with it at the end of the next contraction.
Keep working on holding and stretching that tranquil stillness spot. That is the spot to cross over, to let go, to surrender. That is the spot where the plants in the truffles are waiting for you.
Letting go on this level can cause fears and anxieties to arise for some...the unconscious fear of losing your sense of self...if you start experiencing it, know that it is a common instinct for some and rest assured you will not get lost by surrendering. The sensation can happen with deep meditation regardless if you are working with entheogens or not. Observe the anxiety without judgement and try to release it with the expansion and be comforted by the perfect stillness at the end of contraction.
