Day 3 - Embodied Presence (Movement Session
-
Intention of this practice:
To gather your attention, ground your bodies, and establish clear energetic boundaries — so you can meet life from your centre.Being centred is the felt sense of being here, now, and with yourself.
It is the foundation for presence, clarity, creativity, and conscious relating.From your centre comes:
Your authority and clarity to say yes, no, or stop
Your real voice, ideas, and dreams
Your capacity to choose, ask, and declare
Your ability to observe, sense, and question
Your power to make true offers and connect authentically
Setup - Preparation:
If practicing with others, agree who will hold space and who will read the instructions aloud
Move slowly. Allow pauses. Let each step of the practice land
The Practice (5 minutes)
Read the following aloud, or speak them in your own words:
Slow down. Take a breath.
Connect with the bones in your body. Sit in the seat of your bones
Pause.Gather your attention from wherever — or whenever — it is. From the past the future, other people.
Bring it into your physical centre, three fingers below your belly button.Now use your intention, your power of choosing to hold your attention here. Let it settle.
Click your fingers as you declare an energetic grounding cord from your centre, about as thick as your arm, extending deep into the earth. (A declaration is not a visualization it is a decision from within, deciding this is so!)
Feel your connection with the earth. This connection is your birthright, most of us are not aware of it.
Pause.
Take a deep breath.
Now gently expand your awareness to the space around you — your space, containing only your own energy and information.
Click your fingers again as you declare a clear energetic bubble around you.
A eggshell shaped membrane that you are responsible for to keep clear.Raise your awareness and hold your attention inside this bubble.
You are now:
Centred
Grounded
In your own space
When to Use This Practice

Before difficult conversations
Before facilitating or holding space

At the beginning of any InFire experiment
As a daily grounding daily parctise
