But recently — watching my children, watching your children, watching all of us — I realized we’re falling into a different kind of abyss: the collective digital septic pit.
Right now, as you read this, feel the weight of your body wherever you are and whisper this:
Without this body, I do not exist as a human being.
Without this body, I cannot experience life.
Without this body, my pure connection with the divine cannot evolve in this lifetime.
Feel that truth — until it lives as presence.
| Today we live in three worlds: – The mental world (in your head) – The digital world (hijacking your attention) – The real world — your body (where you spend maybe 10 percent of your day)And with any more reduction of time living in our bodies? We are committing slow, peaceful suicide. |
| When we live cut off from the body, the cost is everywhere — in our health, our emotions, and our children. The numbers are staggering: the CDC reports that 60 percent of teenage girls experience depression, 40 percent consider suicide, and nearly one in three have attempted it. More than statistics, these are signals from a world that has drifted too far from embodiment — from the simple, sustaining connection with life that begins in the body. This isn’t only about our kids. It’s about all of us. |
With T’ai Chi we can again experience what it feels like when the mind quiets, the body reawakens, and energy begins to flow freely again.
