Movement of The Way does not aim upward.
It invites inward — and downward — into rest.

The goal is not transcendence.
The goal is home.

Home is the place where:

breath slows

the heart softens

the mind clears

the body feels safe

the spirit rests in God’s love

“Come to Me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.”
— Matthew 11:28

Movement of The Way is simply a way of answering that invitation — with the body as well as the heart.

How to Enter the Practice

There is nothing to achieve here.

Move gently.
Breathe naturally.
Notice what you feel.
Invite God’s presence.

That is enough.

The Body God Designed

The human body is not separate from spiritual life. Scripture presents the body as a dwelling place of God’s presence, capable of receiving peace, carrying burdens, and responding to love.

The body naturally responds to:

breath

posture

rhythm

stillness

gentle attention

When these are aligned with prayer and awareness of God’s presence, the body settles. The nervous system calms. The heart softens. The mind clears. This is not mystical activation — it is restoration.

Across history, cultures noticed that different regions of the body tend to hold:

stress or stability

strength or fatigue

compassion or grief

expression or constriction

clarity or mental overload

Different traditions described these experiences using different metaphors — wheels, gates, channels, lights. Movement of The Way does not ask participants to adopt those metaphors.

Instead, MOTW stays with what is directly experienced and what Scripture affirms.

Movement of The Way is an embodied prayer practice rooted in Scripture, love, and the gentle leading of the Holy Spirit. Its purpose is not to awaken hidden powers, introduce foreign spiritual systems, or replace prayer or devotion. Rather, it exists to help the human body return to rest, balance, and right alignment with God.

Scripture speaks often of the body’s need for rest and right order:

“In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and trust shall be your strength.”
— Isaiah 30:15

Movement of The Way is an invitation into that returning.

Love Embodied - The Path of Love - Derekah Ahavah by Chaplain Shawnna Schmidt - Author, Align With Love Perfect for February - Walk Movement of The Way through 1 Corinthians 13

The Path of Love, Derekh Ahavah, A Devotional Guide for Embodied Worship

What if love were not something to strive for, but something to enter? The Path of Love is a gentle, embodied devotional rooted in 1 Corinthians 13, inviting readers to experience love not as an abstract virtue, but as a lived, felt, and practiced way of being.

Through sacred movement, breath, stillness, and Scripture, this guide offers a slow and faithful path into the formation of Christlike love, patient, kind, enduring, and true. Part of the Movement of The Way (Tenuat HaDerekh) series, Derekh Ahavah leads participants through seven embodied postures, aligned with the Hebrew letters and the unfolding wisdom of the Love Chapter.

Each section includes a devotional reflection, breath guidance, activation phrases, Scripture, and supportive tools such as frequency, color, and scent, all designed to help love take root in the body and heart. This is not a practice of performance or perfection. It is an invitation to abide. To soften rather than react. To remain present when love is tested. To discover that love is not something we generate, but something we receive and live from.

Whether practiced alone or in community, standing or seated, this book offers a contemplative path for anyone longing to walk more deeply in love, not as noise, but as presence. Love never fails. And love can be learned, slowly, faithfully, and embodied.
