i have a thousand lives inside of me and my task is to keep them breathing and healthy. healthy does not mean skinny or harrassable. healthy means i am nourished, and my muscles are cared for, and my joints are tended to, and my heart can pump out its stress. healthy means i am talking to the little children hiding inside me when they start pulling at me and trying to take control. healthy means i am connected to my ancestors, the seasons, and the land i'm with. healthy means i strive to connect to my hedonic, erotic self who knows through feeling what is mine and what isn't. healthy means i live with a balance of force: creative, restful, connective; and am guided through them by my body and spirit.
