Personal Growth Partial Truths: The Body's Neutrality 🦴

I love bodies. Body intelligence feels underappreciated in the modern world, so more body awareness is freaking great. It can be painful to awaken to the body's intelligence, but it's deeply rewarding. I'm grateful to be embodied and will be forever learning from people who are more body-aware. So I'm glad we're including embodiment more explicitly.

I think this excitement can sometimes lead to people thinking the body is somehow more special. Sadly then somatic awareness becomes a tool of separation instead of wholeness. I see the body, along with everything else as neutral. All appears as equal manifestations of empty wholeness, along with everything. How can body-awareness bring us recognition of oneness?

 

With love, Jordan
