The Embodied Revolution
In a world that benefits from us being numb, it is revolutionary to be embodied.
The industrial capitalist war machine requires us to be numb so we can rationalize in our minds actions that should make us feel sick in our bodies.
16 hour grueling work days in factories to produce more for less. Devastating local ecologies to resurrect more luxury condos. Bombing innocent children and civilians for land grabs. We ask who in their right mind would advocate for such things, when the real question should be who in their right body would stand for them.
It is radical social progress to prioritize tuning into and honoring the innate wisdom of our bodies. To have practices that strengthen our connection to our intuitive guidance and empathy.
Without embodiment, we are led by the mind where we perform impressive metal gymnastics to justify modern day horrors that devastate so many, and benefit so few.
Controlling classes don’t want us to feel. They want us to be numb, disassociated cogs in wheels of inhumane and spiritually vacant systems.
In a world that benefits from us being numb, it is revolutionary to be embodied.
