snippets of summer as my little seaside life officially turns 1 year old 🫶🤍

love to the crew, love to the silly games and the giggles, love to the sea and the cliffs and the moments of quiet, a reminder that maxxing out on life has different meanings for us all ——

things to do to remember you’re alive 💓 🌳 🍃 🐚
not all need be grand, most are very accessible

1- dip in cold water
2- remember, you used to do this as a kid?
3- go behind a waterfall (ok, this one’s maxi grand)
4- fingerprints on fingerprints
5- touch moss. TOUCH MOSS ☝️
6- eat flowers
7- look around
8- run downhill
9- this one too, you used to do it
10- stop to collect stones, very important
11- dance in the rain
12- slither on sand, guided by how it FEELS. Almost lost my car keys in this one. Totally worth it 🐛

All the versions I was are gone and of course, they’ll catch up. They always do. But that special freedom you have in uncharted territories——ones where you’re allowed to test new ways of drawing yourself. New boundaries. New.

my friend came up with this interesting topic today —on how the general idea that to be “holy” or “aligned” we should “detach” -i.e. abstain from pursuing our desires and self sacrifice instead.

To me, understanding the root cause of that belief helps putting it into perspective. It mainly comes from the catholic interpretation of Christian history and what the OG Djizus decided to do when he decided to self sacrifice for the greater good (himself having been probably influenced by Asian lines of thought&beliefs systems). Telling everyone that they should live a miserable life because some dude (RIP/peace upon him) had the hubris to go all in into what he thought others needed without really checking in with them whether they need it was useful for a church that needed to suppress his actually very provocative & interesting work, to make sure people would BEHAVE. 👀

But the question we were asking ourselves today was: did that really work? Was that sacrifice really necessary?

I’ve recently come to notice that, especially in the context of relationships, we think that self sacrificing for “the other” is the way forward but honestly that practice has more often than not led me to trouble, and miscommunication.

I personally think that pursuing our desires and passions & helping others do the same is the rawest, purest form of respect we can to this existence, aka, that this pursuit constitutes the purest form of prayer.

That came around eating an impromptu crumpet with @xme.ad.ow.sx and I felt like sharing.

———a few thoughts powered by pursuing my pure & happy desire to wiggle on good old Justin B’s latest release 🫶🫶 always hehe 🕺

what do you think? (about desires or about justin)

dance improvisation: the space between the elbows

for this, the cue I gave myself was to explore the sensations that arise when the arms & especially the elbows move in ways that create space in the scapulas and in the upper spine. How can you feel as if your arms reach wider from their very point of attachment to the body? Don’t rely on actual reach range, but solely on sensation. The finger wiggling is a way to trigger the different hand nerves and explore how they connect with overall arm sensation

I really enjoyed this session, creating space within and noticing then how it translates visually
