However, this is not always the case. One can recognize their true nature as pure consciousness and also experience sadness or dullness in the body / heart. This is because the physical form is dense so it takes time for transformation to happen. This isn't a problem and doesn't cause suffering unless there is resistance to the experience and/or identification with a belief that something different should be experienced. If you experience the heart as being 'closed' follow this simple guidance:1. Rest your attention as the aware witness, free from identification with thought or agendas.2. Consciously include the experience of the body as alive sensations.3. Gently inquire, 'what is the actual experience in the body? How does it feel?'4. Take your attention closer to the experience until you become one with it and totally surrender to the feeling.5. Remember, it's not about waiting for something to change or achieve anything, just surrendering to what is.6. Repeat these steps with consistency and the blockages will dissolve with time.Louise Kay holds group events and retreats online and around the world.For more details visit http://www.louisekay.net/
