So well put! I feel this immensely - especially since I’ve been working on physical strength. Noticing a lot more of what feels embodied / disembodied in how we live.

Love this for you Jessica. Strength training is such a gateway drug isn't it?!

This is exquisite, Sas. Your words hold such resonance — the way you name and honour each of these lives feels both deeply personal and somehow universal. I recognise myself in the quiet shifts you describe… a few steps behind, perhaps, but very much walking in the same direction. Thank you for making it all feel a little less lonely, and a little more possible.

It can be so lonely can't it?! I really feel that too - almost as if 'does it count if only I see this, experience this?' and the answer i am getting is always YES YES HONEY YES xxx

‘I live here now’. Thank you for this powerful and poetic picture of the parts of life well lived and satieted. And the part hungry for sensing and saltwater. Thank you for your beautiful account of how you feed and nourish her. And how she has become home. Thank you for the reminder. The inspiration. The invitation. The challenge.
