A strange realization for me, after awakening, I realized just how traumatic my childhood and lifestyle had been. How much “people pleasing” I have done. Learning to love myself just as I am with my vulnerabilities. ☺️
I understand it's just a metaphor, but it's a lovely one.
“The Spell of the Sensuous” by David Abram.
To me it is mesmerizing 😃
This is such a wonderful conversation. Thank you both!!
