Here’s a thought for you. Recall the last time you had a lot of fun. I hope it was today! Did you notice how your body felt afterwards? I’ve noticed a definite shift in my internal field after really having fun. The manner in which I enjoy myself may vary, yet there’s a characteristic quality to the way I feel inside that is present along with the other sensations that go with a meal enjoyed with friends or a walk by the sea. Have you experienced something similar? The question I have is: was it having fun that changed the field? If so, how? Let’s wonder about this together over a glass of wine or a cup of tea.

I first noticed this phenomenon many years ago after an evening at the theater seeing Monty Python’s Spamalot. It was a work night. I had dragged myself down into San Francisco in rush hour traffic after completing eight hours of Physical Therapy with home care patients and the mountain of accompanying paperwork. I was tired, a little cranky, and didn’t feel much like going. Yet as I left the theater, I noticed my body felt as if I’d had a two week vacation. The size of the change surprised me and really got my attention. The show was clever and funny and lots of fun. How was that experience enough to rejuvenate me as deeply as it did?   

In another example, I spent an evening with a good friend having dinner at an amazing restaurant, enjoying incredible food and wine and wonderful conversation. It was a different kind of fun. Yet there was a quality to how I felt afterwards that was similar to what I experienced after Spamalot. 

Each experience involved stimulation of different senses in ways that felt good. Yet there was an additional aspect that felt the same in both. For our conversation, I’m labeling that added characteristic FUN. 

This makes me wonder about fun and whether fun all by itself can change the field. Have you noticed anything similar? If you haven’t and feel curious about it, try observing how you feel after a variety of fun experiences. Is there a signature feeling of fun that is distinct from the other sensations involved in the activity? 

Is feeling good the same as having fun? Is there a vibrational difference? Can you feel good without having fun? Can you have fun without feeling good? 

We might all agree that if fun changes the vibratory field the change is positive. What is it about the change that makes it positive? 

If we are talking about a change in the field, is it possible to design a fun fulcrum? A fulcrum that invites the vibration of fun into the field? 

If we future pace ourselves to have fun, does this change the field even before the activity? I recall spending time with a beloved aunt who often said, “Let’s have some fun!” before starting out for an activity. I remember how my body felt, anticipating the fun we were going to have. I was already having fun! Was what she said a verbal fulcrum? 

What might happen if you put fun into your frame for a Zero Balancing session or a ZB class? 

What might happen if you put fun into your frame for 2024?
