I am alive. This I know and appreciate in ways I simply couldn't at any other time of my life. *** A couple of musings to share: no more walls in my detox, but congestion still occurs as cellular debris marking every traumatic moment in my life moves on out... Detox…the nitty gritty Somatic mysticism:... Continue Reading →
