"THE BODY IS WHERE EVERYTHING IS CREATED,
GROUNDED AND ROOTED IN OUR BEING.
THE BODY IS NOT A MACHINE
INDIFFERENT TO WHAT [nourishes] IT, BUT RATHER
A COMPLEX LIVING ecoSYSTEM THAT requires our attention, love & RESPECT."
- MARY SAUNDERS, RHYTHMS OF CHANGE
YOUR BODY IS A COMPLEX living network
consisting of ten complementary systems
that OPERATe IN COLLABORATIVE EFFORT
TO SUPPORT YOUR HIGHEST POSSIBLE FUNCTIONING.
*********
ESTABLISHING RELAXATION IN your body shifts
your capacity to respond from a sympathetic (fight or flight)
to a Parasympathetic (rest & digest) state of awareness
AFFecting your digestive flow, respiratory capacity,
MUSCULAR range, skeletal alignment & integumentary elasticity.
every functioning body participates inSIDE A flow
balancing the activity of one system
with the restoration of another.
when one system restores
all systems receive direct benefit from that effort.

"There is nothing that is made or formed
without a line.
Whatever can be seen ...
In mathematics it is a straight or curved
continuous extent of length without breadth.
Lines are in our fingerprints,
the shapes of our bodies,
constellations,
geometry.
[It] implies genealogical connection,
progeny & spoken word.
[It] marks the starting point & completion.

A line of thought.
a boundary or eternity.
a melodic line.
