RECLAIMING WHOLENESS
The following is an adaptation from my recent conversation with Jen Ciszewski on her podcast, Inspire Health by Jen. A comprehensive index + direct links can be accessed here. Enjoy!
THE TRANSCRIPT
So you’re saying the body is a safe compass?
Absolutely yes, in every case. But first the mind must learn the body’s language. First the mind + body must be married to enact the Force of Nature that they are; first they must be unified in order to enable us to use them as they were intended to be used. Once this basic link has been restored, we become whole humans once again. We become empowered, confident + natural, ourselves.
This is why my work wholeheartedly avoids most categorical distinctions, seeking rather to establish understanding of our fundamental gift, which is the fact of humanness itself. Humanness includes the total being: it’s the body + the mind (our sense of feeling + our powerful ability to think), harmoniously functioning to guide us through the miracle of life.
We do not exist as human beings by coincidence or chance - we’re here on purpose! When we occupy that humanness completely, we gain access to creative power - we become participants in life. We produce, inspire, and expand.
This is how Life grows itself through us. And this is how we are improved by life. This is how we live a gorgeous story. And that’s exactly what we came to do.
