I did somatic breathing for the first time this year and it has been life changing. Things I had no idea I was holding onto came flooding out and I felt so so relieved.

Beautiful words about anger. I feel that learning to manage it--not fear it, not escape it-- is the way to freedom in my body. There is no need to fear the relationship with anger. Thank you for sharing these truths

I love that this piece was dedicated to anger, & that you are learning what healthy anger looks like from your lived experience, despite not having been shown a template for it.

"When you learn to feel anger without letting it consume you, it becomes a clarifier. It signals what your values are. It shows you what’s not ok. It gives you back your voice."

I also loved the poem and the tenderness with which your body speaks to you. What a soothing and grounding piece

"When I wander she says

I am here

When my mind takes over she says

Come back"

"My body guides me

So I can safely voyage..."

Welcome home, beautiful. What a joy to witness your journey...
