BEING BOLD FROM THE INSIDE OUT

NOTES

CENTERING PRACTICE

A centering practice begins with the alignment of the physical body. However it’s implications go beyond posture or a
particular way of behaving. The deeper and more expansive possibility is that centering itself is the goal. We can include the
practice of centering in our life, every endeavor, from washing dishes to building a business to waiting in line at the grocery
store, can be ground for developing ourselves.

We often think of center as something solid or static as a physical place. Center is the living process of self-organization
that increases our capacity to be self-generating, self-healing, and self-educating. To center ourselves is to shape ourselves
in a particular way to life. Center is a state of unity in which e ective action, emotional balance, and mental alertness, and
spiritual vision are in a harmonious balance. When we are centered, our actions are coherent with what we care about.

Centering along the dimension of length begins by aligning the head, shoulders, torso, pelvis, knees and feet directly on top
of each other. Once we have established alignment along the vertical axis, we relax into the downward flow of gravity by
releasing the tension in the eyes, forehead, jaw, and chin, shoulders, abdomen, hips, and pelvis, and legs. This lowers our
center of gravity, and the weight is transferred from the muscles to the bones When we cease the struggle of holding
ourselves upright and allow our bones, gravity and the earth to support us, we enter into a dynamic state of relaxation. This
increases the possibility of powerful and e ortless action.

Centering along the dimension of width, we balance left to right along the horizontal axis. Because most of us are
uni-lateral, either right-or left-handed, we usually find ourselves tilted to one side or another. To balance along this
dimension is to stand equally on the left and right feet. There’s symmetry between the left and right shoulders and both hip
joints, with the head directly over the chest.

Centering along the dimension of depth, we align ourselves from front to back. We balance ourselves so we’re neither
tipped forward nor leaning back. Because we’re the future – oriented animal, pre-occupied with our thoughts and
possessing the majority of our sense organs in the front of our body, we’re predisposed to be ahead of ourselves and out of
contact with our back, our shadow, our history and traditions. Conversely, when we lean into life for survival or success, our
heart and chest are pulled back and we lose our orientation for enjoying the process of living. Aligning front to back, we rest
onto our spine while opening the belly.

We drop our attention to a point some two inches below the naval, the center of gravity. From a physiological point of view
this is the balance point of the body and where the strongest muscles intersect. This is why when we push a heavy object it
is advisable to bend the knees and get our hips into the e ort.

Shifting the attention from our thoughts to our center of gravity produces a stability and strength in action. Anyone who
has a bodily practice from a running back in football to an experienced horse person knows this. All living things have a
center of gravity, and we’re most physically e ective when we move from this center. When we unify our mind and body we
increase our capacity for skillful action.

By scanning our body and location our center of gravity we begin to see how our attention can be willfully organized and
directed to bring a greater vividness and control to life. We are able to shift our moods, listen with greater depth to the
concerns of others, move in accord with natural laws, and increase our choices.

“Energy follows attention,” means that feeling, sensation, and aliveness increase and become more vivid at the place where
we direct our attention. When we’ve trained our attention we can swell and expand our excitement or narrow it to a
laser-like focus. By directing attention in a disciplined way it’s possible, for example, to observe the inter-relatedness
between our back pain and an emotional state, and then to articipate in releasing the contraction by breathing into the
tension.

Training the attention is fundamental to the process of self- organization called center. The attention is the glue in unity
making. The wholeness produced by unifying mind and body gives us certain potency for living in the world. We see new
possibilities for relationship action, healing, and learning that weren’t available to us previously. Connection to the life of the
body in this way opens the possibility of shifting from a fixed, thinking of living to one of invention and skillful action.

Adopted from: Holding the Center, by Richard Strozzi Heckler, 1997.

LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness,
That most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who am I
To be brilliant, gorgeous,
Talented and fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking
So that other people
Won’t feel insecure around you.
We were born to make manifest
The glory of God that is within us.
It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone.
And as we let our light shine,
We unconsciously give other people
Permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
Our presence automatically liberates others.

Written by Marianne Williamson
Popularized by Nelson Mandela – 1994 Inaugural Speech

This is not an event about
casting blame -- either on

others or ourselves.

TechGarden will give you a
chance to spot the patterns

that pose the greatest
limitations to your leadership

and to consider whether
you're willing to become more

aware of them and perhaps
clear them away.
