Holy sh!t! Stuff I THOUGHT I’d dealt with came up in a whole new way to ACTUALLY be opened up, reorganized and healed in a new, healthier way. I can see that so much of my life I’ve been everything others wanted me to be. These are things I’d explored with a spiritual teacher once but this is a much deeper realization. I could actually FEEL the shift rather than just be aware of it intellectually. Now I’m exploring who I am without all these defenses and masks I’ve worn my entire life to keep me safe. I have an embodied sense of SAFETY now such that I can be fully myself.

This work has liberated me ENTIRELY from all the trauma responses and long-term negative patterns I was always having. There’s space now between the two pieces of velcro that held these responses together. Now I can let them go, my grip on them has loosened. I went from gripping to an open palm, open, receptive. I'm not interested in gripping onto some identity anymore- I’m open, free, liberated, at peace. It’s like I’ve let go of these emotional weights I’ve been carrying around my entire life. My body feels entirely connected all at the same time.

Learning how to be embodied and present in my life has allowed me to step out of a cycle of toxic, abusive relationships and into a healthier relationship than I’ve ever been in in my life. It’s completely flipped everything I learned growing up, even after years of therapy!
