The Silent Embrace

Did you ever notice that a hug doesn’t need words? It works its magic all by itself. My son Michael is the best hugger I have ever experienced and his embrace is always looked forward to and cherished.

I’ve was reading Wayne Dyer‘s interpretation of the ancient Chinese writing known as the Tao Te Ching and he mentioned that the 56th verse of this book of wisdom is the most popular. You may have heard the opening verse in some form or another:

“Those who know do not talk. Those who talk do not know.”

A hug doesn’t talk.

But what if you are not in proximity of someone who needs a hug or can give one? You employ “The Silent Embrace.” Wayne Dyer triggered this idea for me when he used the words “Secret Embrace.” Either name will work with this exercise that came to me from out of the blue. The name isn’t important; the practice is what makes it worthwhile.

Think of someone you know who needs a hug or someone you would like a hug from. Imagine giving or receiving a silent, melt-your-muscles-like-butter hug. Hold the embrace for as long as necessary and feel the calming sensations throughout your entire body. 

You can use this silent embrace with anyone. They can even be passed on and you will receive the peaceful benefits in your body. Please don’t delay giving this exercise a go. It’s real powerful and you can do it right now. It takes less than a minute.

My sense is that you are not the only one who'll feel the therapeutic effects of this embrace.

I’ve begun a new practice – The Silent Embrace. I offer it to you and encourage you to experience this heartfelt hug.

All the best,

John
