Mother Nature is in the middle of changing the set and we're about to raise the curtain on the mid-season New Moon. We get started on WED, as our collective Spring Break ends and we embrace the EXO lunar energy as we head into the weekend. This begins a 3-week period of WED lunar changes actually. Prepare for some bumpy travel sapes as the Sun and Moon do their best Yankee-Red Sox impersonation all month. What side of the soma are you on? Get your Spring Cleaning done this week so when we reach the seasonal accommodation point between the 11th and 14th, your system is ready to embrace the demands ahead.

Spring Pickin's
Select a part of your life that is congested, confusing or otherwise cramping your style. Get an index card and jot down all the obstacles in it on one side and THIS TOO SHALL PASS on the other side. Read the obstacle side and then flip to the other side each day for the next week or so. The combination of those opposites thaws your mind. After a week, place the card in an envelope. Open it on July 4th and see if your free of the obstacles and the course.

Do'media! EXOficto...
I have to confess that Mike Francesa and I go way back...I've listened to his WFAN career unfold since the late 80's. But he represents a pre-internet era of sports talk that has largely given way to the sports gossip we get 24/7 now. What happened? Was it better when the experts and athletes lived in a media-insulated bubble? Are we all living in that same bubble now and just don't see it because sports has become less about escape and more like society?
I'll have more than that to say about it in the Soma Nuse & experts we find on the SAPEVINE on this WED's show...
Do you have any experts in your circle on this? LMK, just e-mail me at nakedsoma@gmail.com

I confess my command of the English language can stand some improvement. As you travel with me through the wilds of Soma Space, my well-travelled lingo will inevitably surface in our conversations. Below I've offered one the more common phrases I may utter this time of year from what can be called my filosophy...
Exformation A concept from the work of Tor Norretranders in his book, The User Illusion. He writes, "A message has depth if it contains a large quantity of exformation. If, during the process in which the final message is formulated by a specific person, a mass of information that was present in the consciousness of that person is discarded, and thus absent from the message, we have exformation." So coherent communication is dependant upon a conscientious source producing massive amounts of exformation to ensure that the receiver gets the message in his/her 'map'. It's as if the universe has a marketing department that tailors messages to its target audience. On a personal level, the congruency between our verbal and non-verbal communication serves as a way to monitor how conservative our efforts to express ourselves actually works. Tor offers this: "Any language, any description, any consciousness, consists of information that is the result of exformation. Enormous amounts of information have to be discarded before we can be conscious. So in the final analysis, this consciousness and its expression can be understood and grasped only when it is anchored in what discarded all the information: the body." Are you starting to see how this might relate to somatics, may just a little?
