What shared elements link the contemporary expression of Body Suspension to its historical origins?

How can we honor the meaning and origins of these practices, outside the frame of cultural appropriation?

Through a comparative analysis, we draw parallels between traditional suspension and modern practices, highlighting the cultural, spiritual, and experiential connections.
