Similar a las historias de otras mujeres legendarias en latinoamérica, como La llorona o La sayona, “La patasola” es el alma en pena de una mujer que perdió a sus hijos por conflictos amorosos. Se conoce como “la patasola” porque anda con un sólo pie. Su cabello es largo y enmarañado, y tiene ojos y boca grandes.

Cuentan que era una mujer que estaba casada con un campesino con quien tenía tres hijos. Un día, a la vuelta del trabajo, el campesino encuentra a la mujer en casa con su patrón, y en un arrebato de furia cortó la cabeza de este último con un machete. La mujer intentó escapar, pero el campesino logró cortarle una de las piernas. Como consecuencia de esta herida la mujer murió pronto. El campesino prendió fuego a la casa y se llevó a sus hijos muy lejos. Desde entonces, el alma en pena de la patasola regresa a buscarlos.

De acuerdo con la región específica donde se cuenta, la patasola aparece con enormes colmillos, por lo que puede tratarse de una especie de vampiro que, más allá de haber sido una mujer despechada, es un ser que protege la naturaleza.

EP49. 生命在於運動

speaker:   陈丹青  Chén Dānqīng   艺术家、作家、文艺评论家。
代表作品：《西藏组画》，参与了2008年北京奥运会开幕式的策划设计活动。

script: 
我从现在年轻人的表达当中我没有看到个性，我看到的是共性。我很少很少看到一个年轻人，给我有个性的表达，让我一惊。我*，这话，他这么说？这么看？我几乎看不到。语言都趋同，表达方式趋同，词语趋同。我不觉得今天的孩子比我们那会儿孩子更有个性，真的一点没有。为什么？还是因为你们每个人有个手机，有一个网络。网络和整个的媒体在教你们怎么说话。然后你们统一性越来越强。
表达   biǎo dá fāng shì；the way they speak
个性   gè xìng；personality 
译文translation:
I can't see the personality in the expressions of young people now, what I see is the commonality. I seldom see a young man who gives me a speech of personality that surprises me. Which can makes me think ‘Why did he say that? Why did he have this idea?’ I can barely see it. Languages are the same, the way they speak are the same, and words are the same. I don't think the young people now have stronger personality than our times, really not at all. Why? That’s because each of you has a cell phone, the Internet and the entire media is teaching you how to speak. Then you guys become more and more unifie.

ESPAÑOL COLOMBIANO

6 VERBOS PARA UN VOCABULARIO AVANZADO

In this episode, we explore how the Solar Plexus Chakra, or Manipura, plays a vital role in language learning by regulating confidence, personal power, and the ability to express oneself authentically. Located near the stomach, Manipura is not only metaphysically tied to self-esteem but also biologically connected to the enteric nervous system and the vagus nerve, both of which influence stress regulation, digestion, and cognitive clarity. By engaging in mindful practices such as breathwork, posture alignment, and intentional vocalization, learners activate the Solar Plexus Chakra, enhancing both their fluency and emotional resilience. We also discuss how certain languages with strong rhythmic, tonal, or assertive qualities engage this chakra more directly, creating a feedback loop where language study supports chakra balance, while chakra activation boosts memory, confidence, and communicative ease.
