How is possible that the whole bubble is my body?

[Rafael Thundercat]

I heard Leo saying on and on that this bubble of perception is my very body and even my body included. But the direct experience one have on and on is that "that" is a imense body of earth,florests,clouds and so on and this is another body inside this whole imensity. How can be that I can move directly this body ( my toes rigth  now) and all the rest is just fully random happening and unless I move and act on it (ex: Cutting a tree)?

I am aware that if I decided to walk around non stop I will spend all life and never find a end even is I pass by same places the place will be sligthly different next time I pass trougth it.

When you become very aware, everything in your field of perception becomes as vivid as the sensations in your body. It's as if the field of perception becomes your body. 

When you're in a more contracted state of consciousness (more survival oriented), the body feels more central to your experience, because survival limits resources and narrows attention, and the body is very central to survival.

But when your survival is largely taken care of, you can enter more expanded states. Of course, you can also enter expanded states when you expose yourself to extreme situations that disrupt normal functioning, but those states are usually not sustainable for long periods of time (unless they're integrated into your normal functioning).

Most people struggle with being stuck in some type of survival mode all the time, and they're unaware of how they can turn it off, because the nature of human problems is that they are largely unconscious and requires deep penetrating work to untangle.
