Yet another chair

The bus chairs are designed:

(1) by people who collapse
(2) for people who collapse
(3) in order to induce and facilitate collapsing.

I had such a chair on the bus from and to London. After spending sufficient time collapsing i stopped curving my back into the chair, came back on the sitting bones and invited sense of both being grounded and going up from this base. With my recent use i can't maintain such a sense while leaning against the chair.

This realignment allowed more clarity and ease, and to move to doing something little bit more useful and constructive than tension induced day dreaming and anxiety.

Indeed. There can be a corresponding state of emotional collapse brought on by submitting to the will of the chair! It is our sense of grounding, safety, sureness of place, that allows us to experience the joy of being fully connected to self. This connection allows us to become our True Self, the expression of the light within.
