The Immune System and our Relational Metabolism

About the Event

Our immune systems don’t just fight off germs—they remember experiences. They carry the imprints of betrayal and belonging, of safety and suspicion. In the ecology of our bodies, relationships leave residue: inflammation, changes and modifications to cells, and epigenetic movement. What patterns of protection and perception have become embedded in our tissue? What stories does your immune system carry from the relationships that shaped you? How does your body decide what is welcome, and what must be defended against, and how to prioritize its resources? What might it mean to allow nourishment again? Join Sarah Peyton for an exploration of the biology of boundaries and the tender intelligence of our inner defenders.
