A simple connecting technique used at FABIC is called FINGERS, TOES, NOSE, HEART.FINGERSIt is common to not bring focus and attention to our fingertips even though they are amost delicate part of our body. This step brings awareness to our fingertips and how theyfeel. By touching them gently against our clothes, our arms, the other hand, the furnitureor other objects, we become aware of the sensitivity in this part of our body.This step is about bringing awareness to a part of the body as we begin to rebuild theconnection with our whole body.TOESAs with the fingers, our toes are often a part of the body that we bring minimal focus to.Our toes are touching our socks, stockings, shoes, the ground we walk on and the sheetswe sleep in frequently; but unless we stub our toes, rarely do we bring attention to them.This step is about rebuilding the connection with our body by bringing attention to aparticular part and gently wiggling the toes and connecting to how they are feeling.This step can be done on its own or at the same time as fingers and nose.NOSEThis step is also based on supporting a person to re-connect to their body. Here we askthem to focus on the pointy part at the tip of their nose. As they breathe in, they areencouraged to feel the cool temperature at the tip of the nose. As they breathe out, theyexperience the warmth of the outbreath across the lower fleshy part of the nose.This cycle can be repeated many times while they continue to bring focus to their fingersand their toes.HEARTThe above three steps of fingers, toes and nose require bringing focus to the mechanicsof each movement. As a person deepens this quality and when attention is brought to theheart or chest area, a feeling of warmth is often experienced. This is an indication that theyare returning to connecting to themselves and their body, connecting to the innatelyawesome, amazing and lovable being they in truth are.
