Your Body Is Speaking
Place a hand on your abdomen. Right there, where everything converges — between the ribcage and the pelvis, where your navel sits. This area is not just any body region, but the centre. Not only geometrically, but functionally, symbolically, biographically. Here you were once connected to your mother. Here you digest your life. Here sits what language has known for centuries and medicine is only slowly rediscovering: your second brain.
