Nerves twist and tighten, cells react, connective tissues writhe, distorting the fasciae of capillaries, veins and arterioles, muscles and organs. Such intensity of feeling cannot be sustained. Storms blow over, leaving after-effects. The great arterial aorta runs through, bifurcating at the centre, pumping blood out to the distal parts while a cavernous vein passes the other way lifting used blood back to the heart for recycling, and the vagus nerve runs the communications. A mass of tubes, bladders, reproductive organs pack the spaces, attachments and connections with mesenteric arteries, arterioles, veins and capillaries, lymph nodes and nodules, tendrils of nerves, endocrine glands, muscles in broad sheets near the surface and the deep chunky psoas providing a tensile connection between spine and femur.
Connective tissue is the common network for bodily systems and energy pathways.
Feel where the tension goes. Toxic winds are thus provided with both physical and energetic escape routes. Escape-routes clear, work can begin on the organs themselves or any knots, tangles and lumps found in the abdomen. Visualisation by the participant helps the profound effect of this combination of physical, energetic and spiritual therapy. Focussed massage to points in the navel area slightly melts the gelatinous coating around local cells, releasing suspended toxins into the lymphatic system and enhancing conductivity of the connective tissue, enabling pain-relieving messages to spread through the embryonic meridians radiating out from the navel centre.
