I like this idea, and I think for many it would be a wonderful tool.
For me, I feel a bit of wistfulness ... wondering ... what would that be like?
But, even with my diverse imagination, I cannot see this for myself.
Would you do this?
I'm so very glad to see you back again, for however long it lasts

... much love, always <3

I share that wistfulness and a nostalgia for the girl-I-was-who-may-have-tried-this. In the early days of boundless openness and creativity I do think I fashioned my own 'therapeutic vehicles' and I indulged in lots of movement-oriented therapies like biodanza and trance dance. They did help but never healed. Perhaps healing has been cumulative. It is hard to tell what gifted me with the necessary clicks in awareness, those shifts in healing.

I think it sounds wonderful though and I like how the healing wheel endlessly reinvents itself for each generation.

Thank You for your warmth. It is a joy to bask in your light. xxx
