Movement Meditation in India
/A Movement Meditation on Psalm 139
Fingers dancing, thankful for movement. For the way these hands can build, can make food, can hold another’s, can embrace, communicate.
You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit them together in my mother’s womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex.
Look down at my feet, thankful for the the way they carry me through this life, take me forward on the direction I dream to go. That I can walk, jump, dance, stand.
You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit them together in my mother’s womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex.
Each body created perfectly & uniquely in your image, thankful for diversity and differences.
Thankful for the living breath of life in these lungs and the gift of experiencing life in the fullness of being a human.
You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit them together in my mother’s womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex.
Imagining a world where the focus was not on ideals of beauty constructed by media, of comparisons and feelings of being incomplete.
What about a world of thankfulness for the bodies we have been given as gifts? To be thankful for the freedoms they provide and room to move. To celebrate each one’s beautiful reflection of the Divine, to see the fingerprints of the Master Artist’s work. To be fully comfortable within your skin.
You are a living, breathing piece of poetry, a work of art. A light bearer.
You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit them together in my mother’s womb. Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex.
Today I am thankful for this body, for your body & for the one who created it.
