What an excellent article, Patricia. Our church is well known for hosting a quality annual yard sale, the proceeds of which go to our missionaries. This year, the four or five good-quality used children's bicycles for sale drew no interest whatsoever. Before the advent of the 'smart' phone and apps targeting children, such treasures were among the first to go. Gone are the omnipresent groups of kids on bicycles in the small town nearest our home. Balance is an essential nutrient for growing bodies.

Wow. Just wow.
I sent this to a couple of friends who are somatic coaches. Modern technology is cutting off everyone from their bodies and the natural world.
