The World Is Your Skin - Familiarity For Fear & Overwhelm

This is a 9-minute talk about how we hallucinate our separation from the world, which causes an immense amount of fear and sorrow, and then a 4-minute lyrical poem that reminds us that every experience is a deeply intimate and familiar experience of ourselves. Through inquiry, nature, and lyrical transmission, we dissolve the borders of skin to find a reality that is intimate and safe. Stop the "white-knuckled reach" for control; you are the relationship in which life occurs.

Thank you for your listens and shares. I'm excited to hear about your experience with this more rhythmic poem. Your presence allows me to hand-gather soundscapes where I can - and create these meaningful touch points for myself and others, so thank you, with all my heart, for being here.

✨ Every Thursday, I send out unpublished poems & audio essays to help us embody our felt sense of wholeness through nonduality, nature, and self-inquiry on my Substack.
