There’s a side of your mind that knows the nutrition of story, that knows how to drink the rich marrow of myth. I’m talking to you now.

I’ve been tracking at the intersection of body and culture and here’s what I’ve found: each contains the other, and is contained within the other.
I tell stories that illuminate the mythic webbery we’re living our days in. I speak from the throne of the body about the textures of culture we are homing. Why? Beyond compellery, I have reason to suspect no sustaining healing will come about an individual without endeavouring in cultural remediation. Heal scar tissue in the body? Heal scar tissue in the culture. Heal the body? Heal the culture. You don’t need to go looking for culture out there; the bone house of culture is living inside of you. And you are indeed part of Culture’s bone house; your very life, your days, your kin, are molecules of a Cultural Whole.

Mythologies make beliefs, they make the shapes that your thinking flows through. I believe culture work is the companion to body work. Mythologies are nutrients your mind needs. What you believe, is as essential to your health as the state of your liver. How do we get these mythology nutrients? We come alert to the other beings whose bodies are containing ours; for this is the who and the what of a mythology: a poetic way of telling the truth about matters that are at the edge of human comprehension.

Body work is culture work. Culture work is body work.
