Thank you to all the Federal workers, this week, that have been obstinately protective of democracy, intentionally obstructive towards these goons and found ways to turn bureaucratic inefficiency into an effective tool for rebellion against evil. ❤️

I have so much empathy for all of the government workers I know. Speaking to friends that are in different arms of the Feds this week, I hear terror, despondence, anxiety, anger and *resistance* in their voices. ❤️

When it comes to somatic therapy, it’s all about capacity, not constant calm. In distressing and turbulent times, like we are living though, unpredictability and stress are unavoidable, so the goal is to expand nervous system capacity rather than force constant regulation.
