I have compared a still point to that period when the sails are full of wind but the boat is not yet moving. All appears quiet but there is so much happening, momentum is building. There is the potential for moving forward.
In bodywork such as CranioSacral Therapy there are many times during a treatment when all is quiet. The tissues are still but there is a fullness beneath my hands and by the peaceful look on the client’s face you know that they are in a state where they are fully aware yet totally calm. The body is preparing to release tissue tension and balance energetically. I watch for signs of release such as a sigh, change is muscle tone, temperature change or softening of the tissues. We also have still points while writing, painting, sewing, meditating or while involved in any activity where you become so engrossed in the moment that time has no meaning. Yet all the right elements are present and we are ready to be productive, creative or have an ah-ha moment.
How might this relate to your home? I feel that a home that is in balance can support many still points. You have days when you multitask effortlessly or meals taste just a little better because you can put a little love into its preparation even if you are in a hurry. All your appliances work well to support you and you work with your garden instead of against it. Your home is like the sails on your boat under which your activities help you to gather energy. When ready you take your potential out into the world.
Still points in the body help to balance all systems and tissues. Seeing your home as an extension of yourself and taking time to become aware of and balance its energies through Feng Shui and Space Clearing are excellent ways to promote balance in your life.
