I made up a word!

In swedish, a noun becomes a verb if you add an a at the end, and the swedish word for "body" is "kropp". So, what we have here is:

to body

[ ˈbɒd.i ] verb

To practice and be present in a bodily pleasant activity such as yoga, dancing, masturbation, exercise, bathing or massaging of the own body.

Having a concept clearly defined in our minds allows us to readily reflect and act upon it, and my conviction is that “kroppa” (or “body” as a verb) provides a cognitive framework for a deeper and more pleasurable connection to the body.
