“Your healing will not happen in one moment.
It will happen in hundreds of small, sacred ones.
And every single one of them will lead you home.” From my piece, From Disembodied to Embodied -

It is easy to become disembodied when living in a highly capitalistic culture. It is our power and responsibility to regain our connection to ourselves. ❤️🧿👁️‍🗨️
