Finding the Inside of My Hand - path of stillness #1

According to Martha Beck, it's easier to drop into Wordlessness when we follow the Paths of Stillness.  The first startled me!

Shook my head in bemusement when I read the directions ~ hold my hand up in front of me, eyes closed, checking to see if I can sense the hand without looking at it. 

Seriously??  

Seemed sort of dorky to me. Didn't hold out much hope it would help, but I gave myself over to it.

The first sensation surprised me – warmth.  I could feel the inner warmth of my hand, which I don’t recall ever experiencing before.  It seemed like I could sense the very blood flowing, the bones, the muscles, my skin & fingernails.

Next, I held up both hands, eyes still shut, turning my attention from the one to the other, back again, then experience BOTH at the same time.  Strange - focusing inside my body was experienced so strongly as out-of-body.

Will that wordless experience help me drop into Wordlessness??
