Being within the physical, embodied, incarnate I am: 
grounded (i.e.actually held to the earth by the cuddle of gravity);
centered (sensate and aware of that behind-the-bellybutton 
                  middle-of-the-gut place);
balanced (not to be taken for granted);
whole (contained within my own, specific skin).

My body carries my life. That grounded, centered, balanced, whole body. All thought, emotion, intuition, reason, metaphor expands from there. And all is well.
