The body is incapable of not practicing. And what we
practice we become… Even as you sit here reading… you are shaping yourself by
your posture, the way you’re breathing, what you’re thinking, feeling, and
sensing. While this may seem subtle and far below the level of our awareness,
over time this has a powerful effect in how we perceive the world and how the
world perceives us.
