For as long as I can remember in my adult life, I’ve had the belief that I am strong. And it is true, I am resilient, i’ve grown with my challenges and also have benefited from many privileges to build that belief that I am, indeed, strong.
It is a blessing to believe that I can deal with whatever is on my plate, and simultaneously, at times, it numbs me. Yesterday I cried on the acupuncture table, not knowing where it came from, but feeling a deep release as the needles met my spleen and kidney meridians - fear, worry. It was amazing. The body does keep the score. Actually almost nothing really important i’ve done in my life has been free of fear, courage wouldn’t exist if there weren’t a frontier to cross : the courage to love (and risk not being loved back) the courage to leave a place you know (and not belonging for a while) the courage to grow (without knowing into what). Fear here is just the friction that happens through expansion.
This session gives us space to metabolise fear, stress and worry - whether it has been held ancestrally or is present now. It is a precise kriya that works with the kidneys, liver and spleen to help release the toxic load unprocessed emotions can leave behind.
