Evolution happens in the body and at Prosocial Embodiment we deal with it in the body.

How do we embody Prosociality? It is a simple but profound question.

What does it mean to embody something?

What does it mean to embody something as profound as prosociality?

Does it mean that we should try to behave in a certain way—that we should be kind, fair, friendly and equitable?

Is this enough for the evolutionary shift that we are seeking?

Are a new economic system and a host of sage policy recommendations for climate action, including the core design principles for community governance, enough? Or do we need to look within with a great deal more sincerity and scientific rigor? We certainly need many things, but in the end change happens from within.

Are we confident that a new intelligentsia is enough to lead us into the deep social change that we envision? This is the age-old problem of praxis and at Prosocial Embodiment we believe that change begins not only from the top down and outside in but also from the bottom up and the inside out.

The problem with every revolution has been that a new elite in the end just replaces the old elite. Top down solutions create new top down control systems. This will not achieve the kind of profound integration and cooperation required for prosociality.

The answers we seek exist within life itself. We base our exploration not only on intuition and spiritual impulse but on cutting edge fascial anatomy and a wealth of new research on topics like embodied cognition, somatics and interoception, coordination dynamics and neurophysics.

We look deep within the body to sense into a new form of somatic awareness and a consilient or holistic and integrative form of emergent perception and cognition. We are seeking the wisdom of the body and the earth that we are part of.

Join us in exploring the anatomy of our own deep core, the postural system of the body, our primal and self aware axial line. It is our interoceptive sensory motor system and a rich source of preverbal, natural wisdom and somatic resilience.

Together we will explore ways that we can embody prosociality + heal deep personal and social trauma starting deep within our own miraculous bodies.

I am excited about this

I have recently found a new approach to the deep core that I am really loving. It is a form of bioenergetics taught by a chiropractor that focuses on meditative activation of the anchor sites of the axial line. She uses chakra sites but takes a very practical and physical approach to it. These anchor sites of course correspond across all different people and all different cultural perspectives.…

Change begins from within—a e radical new argument.

Change begins from within. Not from without. Change that begins from within includes change from without. The opposite is not true. What I am trying to say at least is a bit new and is anatomical. There is not one without the other. Both are necessary. It isn’t such a complex argument but there are a couple of steps to it. Unlike animals we are at the very heart of both the environment and…

Postural Collapse

A post on thread in Deep Adaptation Forum about “What is Collapse?”My very serious focus is on what I call postural collapse. This means the collapse of our structure. In the fight flight and play dead spectrum the defense cascade when we are overwhelmed we collapse. Even a small amount of trauma can induce collapse in our structure. This is one way to look at it but if you think about it…
