“Your body is not a thing, it is a process.”
— Alan Watts
Simplified Meaning:
Your body is always changing and growing, rather than being a single, unchanging object. Think of it like a garden. A garden isn’t just the plants you see at one moment; it's the soil, the water, the sunlight, and the way plants grow and change over time. If you stop watering the garden or taking care of it, the plants won’t stay the same—they will wither and die. Similarly, your body needs constant care and attention to stay healthy. For example, eating well, exercising, and getting enough sleep all help your body continue its process of growing and functioning well. By understanding your body as something that needs ongoing care, you can make better choices for your health every day.
