Bruce Lee, the Mind and Body and Childbirth



"In order to control myself I must first accept myself by going with and not against my nature."
 ~ Bruce Lee

In labour a woman travels to her primordial space, formless, shapeless, to harness the power of her body.


Birth and water, transform.

"Empty your mind
Be formless
Shapeless
Like Water
You put water into a cup
It becomes the cup.
You put water into a bottle
It becomes the bottle
You put water into a teapot
It becomes the teapot
Now water can flow
Or it can crash.
Be Water, my friend."

Bruce Lee
