Schuyler, as ever, thank you for this inquiry and for cultivating Cultural Embodiment. I am reminded of some of Cynthia Bourgeault's commentaries in her book, Mystical Courage.
“In the absence of a vibrant, awakened presence in our physical body, we default to thinking without even knowing we are doing it. Then everything becomes a projection of the story inside our heads.”
She speaks about the power of what we can accomplish together as an interconnected community...
"A web is underutilized if we only use it to shore up our personal sense of safety and connectedness within our immediate group. It can more powerfully be used to offer direct transfusions of hope, courage, compassion, and resilience to an entire planet grown dark and mineral for want of these things. It can begin to warm the atmosphere in the inner ground, so that new movement in the outer ground becomes possible.”
Gratitude for your courage and commitment--here's to relishing the challenge, messiness and delight of embodiment!
