Form as Metaphor Part 1: Our Embodied Navigation System

This isn’t the podcast I was supposed to create. 

I had something polished and impressive in mind. 

This is more interesting. 

You should listen to it.

A bit of background: 
I’d already committed to publishing a daily podcast when I got (very, very, very) sick with Long (very, very, very long) COVID. 

So, I had a choice:
I could give up, or I could keep my commitment and include my constant exhaustion, fever, foggy-brain, relentless cough —and do my best.

I chose the latter. 

My “best” varies quite a bit according to how well or poorly I feel on a given day. 

The episodes are raw, out of order, unedited, with uneven audio quality, You’ll often hear my Pekingese, Bija barking in the background. 

Sometimes I talk to myself, sometimes I talk to you. Sometimes I have no idea who I’m talking to. It’s a true potpourri.

And it’s not just overhearing me wax poetic through a stuffy nose about new insights and the insufferable discomfort of upended plans. There’s more!
 
In between the fragments of thought, feeling, and utter nonsense, is a timely and universal story about expectations, meaning making, dropping all agendas, and discovering what’s possible when we Open to What Is. 

Tune in.
Sample a few episodes. 

See if you can drop all expectations and allow yourself to be surprised and delighted by something you didn’t know you were looking for.
