I want all of us to ask the wordless questions of movement, to learn to move and to be moved (again).
BECOMING OUR SELF
AFTER MOTHERHOOD | AFTER RECOVERY | AFTER TRAUMA
I wonder everyday how the world would be different if we respected the body for the profoundly important wonder that it is, for the liminal space in every impulse, yawn, and step, and that it is always there waiting for us to meet in the aliveness of its wordlessness.
​
I want to live in that world.
​
Because, that will be a world where a body could never be intentionally harmed by another, where there would be no distinction between mental and physical health, and that even a small injury, or routine surgery, would be attended to holistically.
​
I'll meet you there.
Let's really talk about movement.
After motherhood, after recovery, after truama, because we basically need to learn to move (live, think, feel) in a new body.
The realness of living in a time-drenched body is a part of life, but psychology deals with the body in metaphors, and Western medicine reduces it down to parts. But, we are not a metaphor, and we are so much more than the sum of our parts.
