Spiritual Matters: Co-Create with Spirit

Marie Higgins

There is a massage technique called Sweeping that I use at the end of every massage. It is done with positive intentions towards the end goal that the body releases things like worries, stresses and tensions, and keeps only what is helpful and healthy. Clients often comment about how great it feels. I believe it is because it feels simultaneously good to the body AND to the mind, and holds us in the moment.

I also have come to believe that this is where the opportunity to co-create with God*/Spirit is very strong: the place where our mind and body feel good, and we are readily freed up to co-create with ease…. but how else can we get there?
