Body Attunement

How precious is our life

And the body that carries us through it -

This sacred vessel

That holds our breath

Our pulse

Our moments

Yet our body is only one part of who we are

Our heart

Our spirit

Are all woven together

In a dance of flow

To attune is to listen

To the gentle symphony of our cells 

To the call of rest

The need for nourishment

For hydration

For acceptance 

So

Breathe and relax

Let the tension of the world melt away

Like water smoothing stones

Until we are soft

And whole

Nourish yourself with loving kindness

With respect

A reverence for this body

That carries us

That holds our stories

And our potential 

In the quiet moments

In the stillness

We find our truth

A deep attunement 

Not just to our body

But to all that we are
