The rebellious ego mind does not always want to follow directions, constantly looking for distractions, analyzing, straying, and losing focus. Once “trained” to be still the experience of the mind/body meditation, Journey On, actually worked as I intuitively knew it would. Why is the mind so rebellious? Why is it so much easier to be skeptical rather than just allow the knowing to take over? Once my mind accepted its release from bondage, that it was ok to submit to the power of suggestion, I felt the heaviness and subsequent relaxation. Perhaps there is some sub-conscious self-preservation mechanism that blocks supplication to suggestion. It would be rather inconvenient to go through life responding to all suggestions thrown at us, wouldn’t it?
