Surviving trauma doesn't feell like a win. It feels more like being a pirate, an outlaw, in a system that suppresses authentic freedom among people who cow tow to the prevailing winds of public sentiment. It is not comfortable. It is not safe. But, by God, it gives you self-respect!

"What's your Writers's brand?" What a strange question! Can you imagine Tolkien or CS Lewis having to deal with this crap? No. Not. Yet, each of them had a definitive flavor, a taste if you will that fed the soul, that still feeds the soul!

Don't waste the opportunity. Timing is everything! The Solstice is now! Grab a piece of paper.

Dr. van der Kolk argues that to manage trauma, one must engage the entire organism—body, mind & brain—moving beyond traditional talk therapy. Feldenkrais >Literally< gives you the skill to use awareness through movement to relax the hypertonic fight/flight response.

"Many of us in this modern, dominant culture of North America walk around with a deep 'elder hunger' but we don't recognize it as such until we meet someone willing to elder." Are you willing to elder? Do you own the literacy of your embodied experience?

Do you listen to your body? Are you more sore on 1 side of your back than the other? Lay on the floor & just roll from side to side gently, slowly. Can you sense which side is painful? STOP. That's feedback. Roll to the other side. Put your leg over the other. & roll to where it feels delicious!

Dis-Ease is caused by the buildup in body, mind & spirit of that which you would want to relinquish anyway. They cause stagnation. Therefore, release deliberately with deep Cleansing Breaths every day...Dishes pile up. Laundry accumulates. Why would you not treat tension with the same attention? 🌬️

The Feldenkrais method - It's amazing. It's so good that it sounds too good to be true: it reduces friction in your joints, it releases unconscious tension from years & years of unconscious habit, it allows for greater balance at any age. And I am living proof of that. at 64

Stress creates unconscious tension. Tension results in compression on delicate nerves. Compression means PAIN. To STOP the cycle, you have to be willing to learn to relax. DEEP relaxation, not just watching videos.

So most of the issues that plague you can be tracked long before they become a major issue. But we are taught to ignore the feedback until it becomes a $4,000 medical bill. Stop that.

TONUS. In most people, the tonus in their muscles far exceed what's necessary. Tonus is the contraction of the anti-gravitational muscles at rest; these are the muscles that counteract gravity. This means you are using far more energy than necessary, but you can reset tonus if you know how.

The first principle that you need to understand is that your body is a self organizing mechanism. It wants to heal. That's its job to protect you and keep you functioning. Doctors know this. Why do they deflect your attention from this foundational understanding?

Love is a frequency not a feeling. So you can tune into it even with people who have harmed you. In the same way that the love you feel for those you've lost is eternal, the effects of the love you give to others is permanent.

What is modern medicine completely missing? 1. The body is self-organizing 2. Wherever consciousness is directed, it amplifies intention. Attention is the simplest form of love. Your cells know this.
