Ancient Secrets Revealed by Michael Mamas

The Ancient Internal Art of Transformation

Parasympathetic Reorganization I have been studying the works of ancient internal arts masters. At first not as an area of interest but as a need for understanding of what was happening to me. This has become the topic of a book I am in the process of writing. I discuss it here not only because I need to for myself, but also to offer some insight particularly for those who are around me. I know they have been concerned and are wondering. They deserve some explanation. This is not emotional processing. It is not a psychological revelation. It is an ancient physiological art of unwinding that I am in the process of learning—of experiencing. The vehicle that I stumbled upon is Sumo. But the principles are universal and I believe essential for everyone. I used to think calm meant relaxed. What I’m learning is that calm means organized. And when organization replaces bracing, there’s often a period where the old guard exits noisily.
