Another friend called to ask "What is TouchAbility, exactly?" So I realized that in the 10+ years I've used the term I've not been interested in creating a limiting boundary for it.
Much more useful to me has been defining additional ways of thinking, seeing and perhaps even feeling and sensing. I ended up waxing expansive and poetic.
TouchAbility:
Your ability
to touch, sense and enhance your physical body & sensations and your emotions;
to touch, sense and enhance another's physical body & sensations
and their emotions about it.
Your ability
to touch, sense and amplify your heart and your emotions;
to touch, sense and safe-port another's heart and your and their emotions.
Your ability
to touch, sense and intensify your spirit and your vibrance;
to touch, sense and augment another's spirit and vibrance.
&
Your ability
to touch others at the same time.
& even
Your ability
to assist - teach others
to assist - teach others to expand their TouchAbility & our culture's. . . .
All this within the fabric of TouchAbility
Questions you could answer in your comments:
1) Limits that you notice I've created
or
other concepts that are vital to include?
2) Any personal rigidities in you that might inhibit your TouchAbility?
