Embiggening your motor homunculus with childhood phantom toe encounters.

Sample of the Jean Houston seminar: archive.org/details/consciousness-seminar-by-dr.-jean-houston

lyrics

"And my uncle Paul. A marvelous, brilliant man, but--he had lost his legs during World War II. And one day, as we were sitting there, um, on the coral rock, Tavernier Key, I remember it was, fishing, he turns to me and he says "Jeanie, scratch my toe!" I'm absolutely appalled, and I say "Uncle Paul, you haven't got a toe!" He says, "I know that, but scratch it anyway, it itches!" I said, "haha, oh no," even at 6, I knew this was a little perverse, you know? He says, "Scratch it, darn it, it itches!" and I looked around, and there was nobody there but he and me and the fishes, so I--sort of in the vicinity of his toe, I began to...scratch the air. He says "Oh! Thank you very much..." I said, "Uncle Paul--you haven't got a toe!" He says, "I know that...but my brain doesn't. It itches anyway.""

"It relates to what are called the sensory cells in the motor homunculus. Many of you who have seen physiological texts have seen pictures of a little man lying across the brain. You ever seen that picture? Neurological texts? With large eyes, large stomach, large digestive system, small hands. That is called the motor homunculus that actually is merely a metaphoric drawing--corresponding into parts of the brain where these different functions exist. In the last few years, we have discovered something...in this...area of the brain, which is called the sensory cells of the motor homunculus. We've also learned that you can learn how to activate these cells, and once you do that--which we're about to do--you will be able to greatly improve skills, tasks, professional forms, as well as many other things--as well as improve the body image."

"And down. Real body again, stretch. And down. Real body again, stretch, and be fully present in the fullness of that stretch. And down. In the kinesthetic body, now stretch. Very good! And down. Real body, stretch. And down. Kinesthetic body, just as vividly, stretch! Keep up the same breathing pattern. And down. Very good, real body stretch. Be fully there, fully, fully, fully, and down. Kinesthetic body, stretch! Kinesthetic~ And down. The other arm, real body, stretch! The other arm. And down. Again, real arm, stretch. Be fully there! And down. But if it helps you to close your eyes, by all means, do that. Kinesthetic body, stretch. Kinesthetic, kiiinesthetic! And really be there, feel the muscular forms! And down. Real body, stretch. And down. Kinesthetic body stretch. And down. Very good."

"You're literally, in the next few minutes, going to be activating a whole new section of your brain that many of you have rarely used before. Are you ready? Okay. You will have to--this is a standing up exercise--you'll have to clear some chairs and get out in the aisles, and I will do what I can. Yeah, really spread out! You wanna use the stage, use the stage! We have no time for self-consciousness. No time! [laughs] Yeah, come on up on the stage! Come on! Veni, veni! That's a-good. Okay, now!"

"And down. Real body again, stretch. And down. Real body again, stretch, and be fully present in the fullness of that stretch. And down. In the kinesthetic body, now stretch. Very good! And down. Real body, stretch. And down. Kinesthetic body, just as vividly, stretch! Keep up the same breathing pattern. And down. Very good, real body stretch. Be fully there, fully, fully, fully, and down. Kinesthetic body, stretch! Kinesthetic~ And down. The other arm, real body, stretch! The other arm. And down. Again, real arm, stretch. Be fully there! And down. But if it helps you to close your eyes, by all means, do that. Kinesthetic body, stretch. Kinesthetic, kiiinesthetic! And really be there, feel the muscular forms! And down. Real body, stretch. And down. Kinesthetic body stretch. And down. Very good."
