Exploring Accepting

The soul feels unsafe in a frightened body. From this viewpoint, the bodywork breathes courage into the body, inviting it to feel pleasure within its own edges. It is a way of preparing the body to be a home for the soul again.
– Mehdi Darvish

Exploring Serving

A multiplicity of basic human needs go chronically, tragically unmet in modern society. These include the need to express one’s gifts and do meaningful work, the need to love and be loved, the need to be truly seen and heard, and to see and hear other people, the need for connection to nature, the need to play, explore, and have adventures, the need for emotional intimacy, the need to serve something larger than oneself, and the need sometimes to do absolutely nothing and just be.
– Charles Eisenstein, Sacred Economics
