December 12 – Body Integration This year, when did you feel the most integrated with your body? Did you have a moment where there wasn’t mind and body, but simply a cohesive YOU, alive and present? (Author: Patrick Reynolds)

Anytime I give myself the time to meditate (which I plan to make part of my daily routine in 2011) I feel integrated.
When I play tennis
When I snowboard
When the music is so good I can't help but dance.

I was at my friend's house here in the Vail valley that we all refer to as the Chalet. It's a beautiful, timber framed home, surrounded by a golf course outback and the rocky mountains in the distance, nestled in trees. S & A are so generous with their home that it becomes a slumber party on weekends for friends who come up from Denver and for others who end up crashing there. On one of these nights some punk rock was blaring and a few of us started jumping, headbanging, fist-pumping, air-guitaring like idiots, like you do when you're a kid. I remember being aware at the time of how great I felt and grateful I was for being able to do this, accompanied by friends! I was simply ME, alive and present, havin a blast.
