The Silence within the bubble is one of the most meaningful impacts for receivers during the aquatic therapy (water therapy session), it allows to hear the heartbeat, combined with the relaxation of the nerve system, allows a unique invitation to dwell into a specific, exclusive brain frequency, similar to the one we have while we are asleep while we are still awake. Within this article, we wish to explore the reasons to allow a window for the receiver to invoke a conversation and to permit us as facilitators to invite a conversation during the water therapy session;
The water session taps into such frames of the subconscious mind as a somatic experience that allows the mind and the thoughts to be in a precious “vacation” state in the great grace of the nonverbal process that allows it to stay in the body rather than in the mind like usually.
I assume that this is the main reason for the water therapy to be approached as a session that will be best applied in full silence, in this article I would like to propose the reasons to leave always a gate open for conversation with our receivers and make sure they know it.
While those psychosomatic and neurophysiological benefits had been developed apart,
Moment of sharing where are we touched and why
One of the most common subjects that arise; naturally while staying a long time in the water is the need /urge to pee, for some of us, it will be easier to avoid, for others it will be unavoidable to stay the whole session soaked, without unloading liquids, for several physical and emotional conditions that many of them will be good reasons to come to the water therapy, to begin with, like pregnancy for example.
Simple extra glass of water that was offered before the session or a shake that was drunk before to come on a light stomach and not hungry might change the liquid Conditions.
Receiving the session– while being in that situation of intimate position, might induce the sense of uncomforted and could even introduce potential aspects of shame and guilt, this is another important reason to encourage for conversation during the water therapy session;
The urge to pee– will bring the receivers to their mind totally into their body and needs as we invite them to be on one hand, while that on the other, their mind will be locked on that topic of inconvenience for the rest of the session, and for some, it might provoke strong memories of shame and guilt while not managing to hold their urine in the past; from an early age of childhood while peeing in their bed or pants which is very common for many children or even as adults for many given reasons.
Even as a facilitator I experienced many times the need to stop the session for a urine break, while at my support; I had the clock in front of my eyes to know how long I need to wait and the opportunity to be the person in control to ask for a pause to take care of my needs which are the main reminder that this article comes to evoke in us facilitators.
While touching the primal concept of basic needs, also going for “number 2” might come up while all the organs are enjoying the releases of being without gravity, the emotional release, and the hydrodynamic massage, it might become an urge that we feel even more uncomfortable to speak about.
With that, nausea is in the same spectrum, how can we enjoy any experience with that?
The Karmic reasoning that led our receiver to be within that situation of difficulty can be always a good enough answer to the mystical situations that we can’t really explain, yet, it is fundamental, precious, and possible to allow each person to know that they can speak when they need to express their need especially in such meeting of acceptance.
Another common reason to invite our receivers to feel mostly welcome to talk is that usually coming up during the session will be the reminder of important, relevant personal issues that were not spoken during the opening talk; like neck injury, sensitivity in certain body parts, or many more as such.
The reason for them to be forgotten during the opening talk is because it took some time to gain the trust or the confidence or just because those topics were well hidden by the subconscious mind that didn’t reveal them fully for its inner good reasons, many people just don’t remember some of those topics.
during the session that has the potential to meet moments from all the spectrum of our life (and all of us that have been within those experiences by now, we noticed how in relatively short session we might meet our selves in the early childhood or even earlier), it could be so easy to awake moments that we couldn’t place the hand on them in a simple opening conversation.
While we are in a deep, special, touching session, it is almost taken for granted that something will shift, that a big change will happen and we will not be any longer in that “place” where the session starts from, it will be essential to have a quick update to the facilitator what happened, where we are now at, to allow us to share the same page and mostly to be seen and understood, one of the most important missing experiences for humanity that any good session has the potential to heal or to neglect.
And for the bigger picture and being in compassion, we wish to remember that most people are not high-level meditators, being in full silence for 45m could be demanding for some people or just intimidating for others, as a person that loves silence.
I assume that it is mostly the thought of not being able to talk, more than the silence itself, just like being in silence retreat for 7-10 days will be such an intimidating thought to many, while in reality, it could be so healing and nourishing if we know that the doors to a conversation are open it can all change smoothly and allow authentic expressions that are so precious to arise in such meeting that is mostly about truthful, Authentic and “naked” from pretending.
Water therapy has the privilege of tapping deeply into many of those Primal Topics one after the other in one session, we are enabled to touch the story behind the stories. Once our skills grow beyond the basic moves and gestures , when we see the bigger picture; The understanding that empowering the receivers to disassociate the concepts of “no control” of “helplessness”– to understand that even though they don’t know what will happen, they are capable and invited to express themselves and that their needs are important and matter, all those are some of the more significant topics of Humanity when it comes to the relationship with the inner world and the outer world, Within an intimate session that has the potential to invoke, awake, shuffle such strong pillars of self-perception within society, like intimacy, allowance, acceptance, and trust.Please read the free article by Fly Deeper – “who leads who”- for further understanding of the embodiment of the movement of the receivers and its meanings.

Any of those can enhance or distort the lens that we see life through, be in peace with our needs, and with others available to be in our service, just as much as the sense, those receivers had years ago, even for a moment, that their needs are not being seen and their don’t matter enough, might have created the whole path to bring them into the water today.
To allow a person that came to be accepted and understood to be heard for such a simple yet primal expression of need can open more gates in its consequence with a conversation during the water therapy session.
