As The Arrow Flies


Natural/physical/biological intelligence has enormous power. 

And—it respects you.

So if you want to consciously experience natural/physical/biological intelligence in action in your body, you must make space for natural/physical/biological intelligence to act.

You make space by not making a whole bunch of conflicting requests at once.

Instead, you make one request, or intend one thing, and notice what happens.

I frequently liken this process to shooting an arrow. 

You take aim and pull the bow. 

Your time of great, focused effort is over once the arrow flies through the air, no longer under your control. You watch it fly. You learn about how to do better next time from watching what the arrow does this time.

This video (1:56) of an expert archer in action got me so excited I applauded in front of my screen... the really big deal happens at about the minute and a half mark.
