The TM checking instruction for "antsy-ness" is to "feel the body". That means to not try to introduce the mantra. Instead, allow the attention to go innocently onto the body. Naturally you will become aware of sensations in the body that are creating the discomfort. Those sensations may be associated with some stress or emotion or whatever. Doesn't matter. Innocent awareness of the sensations can be quite comfortable compared to trying to do something else (such as introducing the mantra). Also, that attention allows them to unwind. When it is easy to do so, return to the mantra.
Does this "feeling the body" ring any bells to you? Do you do it now in the context of your new found spiritual group? --- In [email protected], "Alex Stanley" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > --- In [email protected], "sparaig" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Dare I ask if you have been checked?
