I find it interesting that Imagining spaces between areas of the body is what visual artists do when they're doing live drawing. Thinking back to my own experiences, that is a meditative exercise, slow, contemplative, intensely focused:, that generates well-being in me, peace, calm and compassion, as long as I'm not trying too hard, which is always part of the instruction. And it is a different form of relationship between the model and the artist. Your instructions here take me back to it.
this is kind of the essence of mindfulness, heart sutra, open focus and modern psychology (mct). Many thanks for posting this, accelerated my homecoming tremendously
