Today I am embodied. I know how it feels to be in my physical self, how sensations pass through me: the butterflies in my stomach when I’m nervous or excited (it turns out that although they feel the same, they are actually two different feelings), the pangs of hunger when I truly need to eat, the feeling of satiety when I’ve had enough food. Previously, I was so disconnected that I never truly connected to those sensory messages. I’m also less hunched over, less tense overall. I have more energy. I wake at 5:00 a.m. and feel productive and clearheaded throughout the day.
