Setting the table

The table is the protagonist in this journey. Like the elders before us, we must look to her as a primary school of knowledge. She will promise you a syllabus grown from the outdoors and alter the genetics of who we are when we sit down at it and who we become when we leave. Recognise how you share breath with its shape and how its resource holds the premise for all other plant kingdoms to live on your plate. This specific part of your home is like an operating table in a theatre. You may open your wounds to remedy, fix and heal, because here we learn about compassion science. The most important conversations in history happened around a table. It was where wars were strategized, peace treaties were agreed to, where families reunited and stories came to the surface. Your centrepiece is how you inhabit it. The table is a temple for our hearing and to alter our inner truth. Figure out how your emotional make-up can dress this stage for clans, tribe and kin. Get in touch with what kind of table you want according to the weather, location and time. Setting a table is a work of art. When space is designed in stillness, we come into it that way.
