This is a great idea.
recently I had the intuition or imagination that my son was trying to describe something to me for which I had no sense perception at all- like he was really in his body perceiving it, and I just could not grasp anything he was saying. I think this is a common or at least empathically recognizable position for parents.
I have followed Steiner’s work for a long time and he speaks of 12 senses. While preparing for Waldorf education, teachers are to do what’s called Geothean sense exercises.
I am not sure how this idea would translate to focusing on the limiting belief/habit, but more to accept how the senses, if they are stunted, would necessarily leave one ignorant of great swaths of reality. And that there are many who would keep us focused on only what is perceptible through the base senses that we all have access to, rather than let us focus on developing these higher senses.
I have also recently begun to emphatically expand my own sense perceptions through different exercises, and one does begin to naturally perceive who remaining in and relying exclusively on those base senses is intrinsically limiting; it leads one to exist as if the physical body was all there is, that there are myriad threats to it’s continued life and one must be on constant guard and in an aware, hyper-vigilant, fearful character.
I wonder how much cross over there is for these concepts and what we could implement practically to bring ourselves into more awareness and clarity?
