Three States Of Water — by Natureza Gabriel Kram

[Welles]

I thought this is a fascinating thought...

Imagine that you’ve never been to Earth. You visit first in winter, where someone introduces you to water. From a glass, they pour it out over your hand. You drink. Remarkable.

Imagine that you walk outside onto a frozen lake. You’ve never seen this substance before. You kick at it with the toe of your boot: solid. You drop to your hands and knees, it grips your palm when you press your hand against it: bone-chillingly cold. What is this, you ask? Your guide replies, water.

Imagine that you walk into a steam room. Hot vapor swirls in an obscuring fog. What is this cloud? you ask. Again, water, comes the answer.

If you encountered water for the first time, wearing her three faces, you would not believe she was a single element. Yet of course, each of these– liquid water, ice, and steam is, indeed, water, in different states. A liquid, a solid, a gas: their physical properties entirely different; contradictory, in fact.

I have now explained Polyvagal Theory to you, through the lens of water.

Thank you so much for this, Welles. To tell you the truth it is an answered prayer as I try to better understand and assist my little grandson who suffers with emotional deregulation. I suspect I am advised to meditate on these concepts in relation to little "D" and understand how I can help him to feel safer in an ever changing environment. Well, who knows...I will try to be open to what comes.
