Embodied Flow (For Wanna)
Clouds, palm leaves
Bamboo stems, song
Wind, wood
Energy, heat
Ribs, hips
Knee, thigh
Arms to sky
Feet to ground
Heart to crown
Spine long
Breath
Breathe, nostrils
Mouth, tongue, roof
Release
Laughter from the core
Up, down, around
Love simply
But deeply
Then laugh some more.
I was inspired to write this poem after attending a class with Wanna, a certified Embodied Flow teacher at Lotus Shores Siargao in October 2018. It was the first time I attended a class that I found easy-going and filled with laughter. Wanna made me rethink the practice. That inward work shouldn't have to be so serious and somber. Instead, a little bit of laughter makes the ride so much richer and more enjoyable. This life is too short to just dwell on the darker side of things after all.
