Appreciation

A wave of appreciation has washed over me with a swelling of gratitude for our human bodies, a collection of cellular symphonies with a multi-million year history of design refinement to get to this moment! Appreciation arises for the liver, the intestines, the heart, the lungs, the brain, the tongue..... all undulating and pulsing with the rhythm of an unbroken beat, a continuous baseline metabolism, who's origin was birthed in the movement and tides of an ancient ocean.

Absorption

Total absorption, 

the sponge is full of water.

Immersion

If we understand the universe as a Vast Wave Medium, then we can realize our own bodies as condensed or congealed aspects of this pool of wave energy. Our immersion in this ever present creative wave medium is a given. Our own resonate "body of water" is the receiver and sender of wave energy, and in this view everything in the universe is alive with waves; electromagnetic, gravity, sound, light, breath, emotion, and movement, all are integral to the vast pool of wave energy. So the truth of our bodies, as Emilie Conrad says, is "we don't have to move, we are movement". This deep allowing to be enveloped and penetrated by the waves of life-as-it-is, to be moved, to be dissolved, and to be continually re-created, is for me the essence of the creative life. I think we should all follow the advice of my dissolved-into-love friend Jeannie Zandi, who says simply, "Let it have you".
