Behold the dancing damara ram … and to answer yo

Behold the dancing damara ram ... and to answer your questions:

Yes, he’s a sheep not a goat.

Yes, he has a giant tail - this North African breed stores fat in their tails ...

Yes, he was bottle raised and therefore has no idea about personal space.

Yes, the oak tree is fine - it’s massive and has several hundred thousand leaves he can’t reach.

Yes, life wouldn’t be quite so interesting without him.

We’ve practiced what I call the posture of hustl

We’ve practiced what I call the posture of hustle all of our lives.

Head forward, shoulders stooped. Hamstrings and hip flexors tightened. Eyes narrowed, system poised to scan and react to threat. Breath shallow, rib cage narrow - competing, controlling ... outrunning the stories that we intercepted as hurt folks could not be with their pain.

Eventually, the posture of hustle gives way to the posture of too much. Too much running, too much hurting, too much sensation - chest and core collapsing, restless mind distracted. Tuning out, burnt out, numbing out, avoiding, withdrawing.

Both postures rooted in survival in a system that says we are individuals competing for success and wealth - as opposed to interconnected beings here to be the fullest expression of life/ourselves.

I understand these postures intimately and hold no judgement for the times I adopt them in order to stay safe.

There’s a third posture, though. That I practice and teach.

The posture of regeneration.

Feet grounded, pulse slowed. Breathing as and with the earth. Heart open, life flowing - mind curious to new ideas. Creativity humming, collaboration activated, born from safety ebbing through my veins. Resourcefulness and inspiration abundant, belly laughter too - one hand on my heart, one hand with my pulse on the collective - coming back to life - I am, and have enough .... this is the state where great problems must be solved.

This is were we’ll be in embodied regeneration. So you can deepen your impact as a leader ... come back to life... and slow your breath down to the rhythm of the earth.

Coming back to life for me looks like long walks a

Coming back to life for me looks like long walks and daytime sleeps. Working less and conversing more. It looks like creating a meal like it is an artwork. Like rubbing fingers across the soft grey blue leaves of rabbit ears. Kissing tiny pillowy rosy cheeks.

It also looks like passion and inspiration and fiery rage - my utter disbelief at the way things are channeled in words and work and spaces - my frustration fusing with creativity to push me - and others - toward something more beautiful, more equitable, more regenerative.

My activism lies in both. Because it is about who I am, not what I do.

Who said slowness and sufficiency, reciprocity and wonder, were always gentle and zen?

To me they carry within them the possibility of transformation.

For you. For us. For the 🌎
