Body Freedom Exercises: Baby Body
by Al Link and Pala Copeland
BABY BODY
Safety, security, acceptance, and belonging are universal human needs. The Baby Body exercise offers these things as unconditional gifts of love.
Time for Exercise: five minutes
Properties Required: none
Steps:
One of you holds the other with unimaginable tenderness, as if you were holding a trembling infant. Gently rock and caress your lover as you whisper words of comfort, safety, acceptance, and caring.
Comments:
This is not intended as a sexual activity. It is very important to offer this as an unconditional gift of love and caring. No performance of any kind is required from the one receiving this gift. Don’t let the utter simplicity of this activity fool you; it is immensely powerful and effective. Do this exercise once a week for each other. You can also offer it to your children, your parents, your brothers and sisters, and your friends. |
