"At a moment, it was like “it’s not about the spoon, it’s about you…”

Quick summary

Through a spoon-bending exercise, Marcelo experienced a profound shift in perspective. When they realized the practice wasn't about the spoon but about themselves, they discovered their own flexibility and began transforming from within.

It was a great experience to practice spoon-bending. At a moment, it was like “it’s not about the spoon, it’s about you…”. And then I became flexible and started to bend “myself”.
