During the COVID 19 pandemic, we have become more aware of how our bodies are feeling. We ask ourselves, do I have a temperature, is my throat sore, can I still smell? Our culture can convince us of so many unconscious ways to be in the world. Ordering us to rush, achieve, be better, work harder, compete for success. What if we just be? What if we step back and breathe? Life is an absolute wonder that is over way too fast. Conversely, our bodies take their next breath without permission from the mind, the heartbeats, and our life cycle continues. The body has its reasoning. I am not reinforcing the tired old duality of the mind-body split but instead advocating the concept of integrated circuity where energy flows without thought's insistent dominance.
