The Shift from Head-Focused to Body-Focused Attention

In this episode, Dr. Amy Johnson discusses the profound shift she has experienced in her perception of the world. She describes how her attention has moved from being primarily head-focused to being more body-focused. This shift has brought about a deeper understanding of thought and a change in her relationship with it. Rather than being identified with thought, she now experiences a greater sense of freedom, allowing thought to run without attachment. She explains that this shift has involved a downward movement of attention, where she now feels a lot of energy in her body, particularly in her stomach and chest areas. This shift has led her to live more from this energy rather than from her thoughts, resulting in a different and more vibrant experience of life.
