In a society that forces us to live from our minds, we have forgotten what it means to be connected to the rest of our selves. It's not that the mind is evil, but that we can learn to integrate other parts of ourselves into our way of understanding and interacting with our world. Reconnecting to our body and our emotions, allowing ourselves to have ALL of ourselves (and not just the parts that we have somehow learned "should" be there) brings us incredible levels of energy, confidence, intuition …
