“To be looked at that way, from someone’s heart, can change you molecularly if you are not careful.” ~ Ann Lamont, Dusk Night Dawn I called this “the soul stare”. A time of powerful silence with 33 gorgeous souls, we greeted each other with our eyes, fingertips, and the breath of life. It was like an oasis. Life can get really busy and involved. Schedules can demand that we keep moving without really Seeing. Being. Or Breathing. Ourselves or even with those we share this ground with. Layer on the amount of perceptions, judgements, needs and boundaries and there really is no way we are going to radically move beyond our self-protection and isolation. Sometimes it’s fear. Sometimes it’s just plain negligence or in-opportunity. We just don’t have it for whatever reason. Having been touched and held by the gaze of so many hearts, I can say with authority, we need it. This oasis of being seen. It is grounding. It is partaking. It is freeing. There is healing in those eyes. And gravity in the life of one standing in front of you helping you see. This practice reminds me of Jesus. And how people felt His Healing… Soul Stare. And how we can be like Him, and heal ourselves and others by looking with the eyes of the heart. Today, has your heart been seen? Have you practiced seeing the heart of another or honoring the breath of life in them? If you have, you are rich indeed. 💖 Angela Rankin 📸 @michelle.thielen captured Angela Rankin and Michelle Lumpkins #soulstare #immersion2021 #yogafaithmasters2021 #mastertrainer #theartofseeing #eyesoftheheart #yogafaith #HearingTheMastersVoice #masters #prana #partnerpranayama #Breath #HolySpirit #pranayama (at YOGA FAITH) https://www.instagram.com/p/CR0NDybskTZ/?utm_medium=tumblr
