We're being pulled back from whence we came.

Yeah, so we're on this planet.

It has a force.

It pulls us towards the center of it.

That was there long before any signs of life, long before the first bacteria, the first fungi.

Nothing was here except that.

And then life somehow emerged, but the first thing it had to do was to survive on this planet, the physics of this planet.

So gravity was there long before we were, and it'll be here long after we're gone.

So it stands to reason every part of your body has to manage that force.

Yeah.

We evolved to tolerate gravity, to be comfortable and to harmonize with it and not be hurt by it.

I'm not going to get dizzy when I stand up and pass out.

I'm not falling over.

I have the strength to exert myself into the world.

The pumps and tubes in my body are sloshing all that fluid up and down against the force of gravity.

And I'm perfusing my brain with oxygen so that I can sit here and talk with you.

This is what I mean by tolerating the force of gravity is we're built for it.

Intolerance is a consequence of our modern lifestyle.

It's a consequence of gaining too much weight on the body, getting too weak, living sedentary lifestyles, eating ultra high processed foods, experiencing stress and anxiety and mental depression, literally feeling down.

All of these accumulate to undermine our natural ability to stand up to this planet.
