"And the day came when I smiled again."
Misrecognition, if it can't get cleared up, calls for exquisite energetic boundaries, great self-love, and staying close with those who know you and support you.
Feeling stuck, confused or crazy? Maybe something is incongruent, and your body is holding conflicting impulses.
The journey from BUT to AND is a journey worth taking.
Life is hard but that is no bad thing... The sky within me is as wide as the one stretching above my head.

You be you.
What to do with so much grief?
Maybe, share it.
Loved ones belong to us, whether they passed from this world or not. They are alive in our hearts.
We can offer everything.
The body's "freeze" response during trauma is a great survival resource. Let's liberate any energy that might still be frozen, held tight within your body, now. In a healthy, empowering way.
Sometimes, on the way to let things go it helps
to let them be.
During times of hardship, one need not be alone.
The body is both a mirror and a tool, like a musical instrument. Like a mirror, it can show us limiting patterns that stem from unresolved trauma and / or relational pain. Like an instrument, we can use it to shift these and find new, adaptive options that serve us well.
Life is moving us forward, now.
Healing is a creative journey. It can also be intense, and requires, and deserves, tender love and care.
May there be safety, peace, and health, everywhere.
