I am going to make a post about TODAY! It won't let me make a title right now, sooo...
Title: Ellen- July 9, 2007
creative, huh?
I'm really glad that I got to meet you all today (well, I had already met Matt).
I now find myself catching myself when I'm slouching, as I am prone to do (slouch, that is). Being 5'2", I liked how I felt so much taller after this morning, like a group of people had just finished playing tug-of-war with me and then propped me back up on my feet.
But if I hear the words "body mind's eye" one more time...
I wonder what it would be like to do that exercise if we didn't all have some basic knowledge of the skeletal system? If we didn't already know what bones looked like, how would we imagine them from the descriptions given in the exercise, and would we respond differently? Maybe if we didn't know what bones were like, we would have to concentrate even more on aligning them.
just something I was wondering about

Ce serait un voyage fantastique dans nos propres imaginations. Une telle chose est insondable à ce point, parce que nous avons cette connaissance. mais pense de retour aux jours quand vous étiez jeune et votre maman vous a dit de quelque partie de corps étrangère dans vous que vous n'aviez jamais vu ou aviez entendu parler de. Vous avez tiré sur la connaissance préalable et improvisé, cette magie de l'esprit arriverait une fois plus dans un plus avancé déclare nous étaient de nous séparer de notre déjà gagné intelligent.

It would be a fantastic journey into our own imaginations. Such a thing is unfathomable at this point, because we do have this knowledge. but think back to the days when you were young and your mommy told you about some foreign body part inside you that you had never seen or heard of. You pulled on prior knowledge and improvised, this magic of the mind would happen once more in a more advanced state were we to separate ourselves from our already gained smarts.
