Your body is
a Vessel;
Holding all that you are and all you are not.
Time uses our bodies as evidence of the past. Each passing day, full of our stress, joy, grief and love co-mingles to create the flesh and bone topography of our being.
Our being is a living recorder, archiving every experience into an ever-changing tissue matrix of memory and belief. The tilt of our hips, the flexibility of our spine, the softness of our shoulders all reflecting an internal experience of the past and simultaneously inviting us forward with present sensation.
“We are all
just walking
each other
Home."
-Ram Dass
