Mind in dantien : gut feelings take precedence over heart and head. Gut is pure sympathy – resonance – immanence. A blocked or sluggish gut is one full of shit, actual or metaphorical. Constipation – the refusal of feelings to emerge. Mind in dantien means listen to your gut – heed the belly – don't repress. As I write this, 4.30 in the morning, little Uri next door wakes sobbing from a bad dream.
