How I Felt When I Journeyed Through a Death Meditation
When his words guided us to visualize our bodies laying still, dying, my mind was on high alert, my emotions triggered, and I felt my body resisting his words and the experience. My mind had anticipated this dreaded moment and I was angry at its arrival, out of sheer fear of what I was going to feel next.
An improv class unexpectedly deepened my meditation practice by teaching me how to let go, be present, and embrace creative flow—on stage and in life.
