A safe place inside

And so those safe places in my body helped to create a groundedness and a sense of home in the body. Eventually, what occurred is I created a vibrant inner world, and that was very helpful for me in my process of spiritual evolution because it allowed me to more fully find myself, ground myself in the body, and then have some sort of choice and power to choose what and who and how I related to different aspects of my body, because I had developed a robust and vivid inner world with specific places in my body that I would go to and meditate on and in, and then eventually look at the world from.

And so those safe places in my body helped to create a groundedness and a sense of home in the body. And then I could relate from the sense of home or groundedness to new or scary or uncomfortable body sensations.
