The greatest cost of the specialization of technological life -- and out of which all other damages are birthed -- is arguably our separation from the practical and enriching sense of ourselves as embodied beings. When
we are alienated from the wisdom of the body, our lives become theoretical and abstract, and we are distanced from the direct, felt sense of living.
"A basic, albeit often overlooked fact of leadership is that we all exist
in the physical realm. Each of us comes into this life with a body. We live
and die in our bodies. What happens to us either before our births or after
our deaths is the subject for philosophies and religions. The fact remains
that, while we walk the Earth, everything that happens to us is an embodied
experience. Though obvious, this truth has been completely ignored by
most leadership strategies. Instead, those strategies have focused almost
exclusively on thoughts and ideas, as if people were simply heads floating
around in space."
