The body contains our entire life experience. The body, as much as it houses our physical anatomy, correspondingly contains feelings, emotions, memories, thoughts, past/present imprints and future potentials. Our physical bodies are not separate from our feelings and emotions, images, thoughts - our physical anatomy reflects the anatomy of our psyche.
