This fits really well with what Beth Booram and I say in Awaken Your Senses."What does your body know? Its ways of knowing will not desert you. Its knowing remains true and will be enhanced through your attention and reliance. The musician Jerry Garcia once said, 'In the water you're weightless. It's so silent you're like a thought. When I begin to relax, the songs start happening in my head.' The body needs to relax to float. If you're stiff and afraid, the water will not hold you well and you'll flail and splash.... But if you have faith in the floating, faith in the water, alliances are made from that."

Add your thoughts at inward/outward
Don't forget, the “Awaken Your Senses Contest” is underway. The contest is featured on:
· Awaken Your Senses Facebook Page
1. This week, you are invited to pay attention to your sense of TASTE and see how it introduces you to the wonder of God.
2. If something cool happens, post a description about that experience on the Awaken Your Senses FB Page or Beth or Brent’s blogs. (All entries must be submitted by Sunday at noon.)
3. Brent and Beth will choose a winner on Sunday evening and that person will receive a $25 gift card for a gift related to taste.
4. Brent and Beth will also do a drawing from the names of everyone who participated each week and the weekly winner of the random drawing will receive an autographed copy of Awaken Your Senses.
5. The winners will be announced on Awaken Your Senses Facebook Page and Brent and Beth’s blogs on each Monday when a new sense begins!
