Using Space To Avoid Nagging – #234

There needs to be space between blog posts that nag you to change how you occupy your body and blog posts that inspire you.

I think we can now agree it is a lot of work to occupy our bodies in ways that promote well-being. 

I hope you now know that commitment to “Bodywork” pays big dividends.

Rabindranath Tagore* also speaks of space. He marvels at how well the Japanese use it:

“When I took my seat at early dawn on a mat by the window, I realized that not only are the Japanese master-painters but they have reduced the whole of man’s life to an art. 

“They know this much, that a thing which is valuable, which has worth, must be allowed a sufficient amount of space around it. Emptiness of space is most necessary for fullness of perception.”
