Varicose veins

Varicose veins are widened, winding veins – mostly on the legs – that arise with a weakness of the venous valves and venous congestions – a venous illness that belongs under medical care anyway. At the Kyborg Institute we consider the theme additionally on a soul-related level.

Our reading

The German word already contains the “cramp” (Krampf-ader): in our reading, varicose veins mirror a chronically tense, immobile stance – someone who persists on one standpoint, who lacks inner peace and enthusiasm, perhaps because they have not found the right task. What does good, in our experience, is the opposite of stiffening: movement, joy and exchange with other people (and animals).

What does that mean in practice?
