Dr. Elizabeth Sawin And we know that we, or more precisely all of the heavier elements (> helium/ hydrogen) in our body, are made of stardust from supernovae. We are connected to, and part of, the universe.

Dr. Elizabeth Sawin One of my favorite examples is how we are mostly all feeding each other, despite all the greed and such. Another example of the underlying harmony is the miracle of driving: millions of self-interested individuals all somehow coexisting.

Dr. Elizabeth Sawin Lakes, ponds, mist, clouds, rain, snow, ice, rivers, oceans, marshes, groundwater… flowing, dissolving and carrying minerals and nutrients… water within us & all living beings… amniotic water, tears, blood… sustaining all life on earth.

Dr. Elizabeth Sawin Our own nervous system’s vagal tone (relaxation response, ability to rest, digest, heal, thrive ) is dependent on other sentient beings around us thriving too.
