This is a companion series to the Architecture of Contemplation podcast.
Welcome to Contemplations with me, Hardeep Kaur. Today we are contemplating the quiet, discreet, intimate gestures by which we navigate our complex mind, and land, scapes.
The brain, or mind, keeps us alert to the signals that are perceptible to our five senses. The rest of our body is a site map that holds more discreet keys to what brings us moments of joy, sadness, rebellion, resentment, fear, love, strife, peace.
Body language is a phrase we know well, but how actively are we seeking to become literate in it with our own being? Without a dialogue with the gestures that speak so openly, without self-censoring or self-editing, is to walk around with a manual written in a foreign language. We become alien to ourselves, a black box of reactions, actions, and unexpressed, suppressed, unspoken, needs and desires.
To observe with curious delight how our body responds to questions or stimuli offered up as we go about our day, is one way into this ancient language of the body.
Take a breath, and let's begin.
