I’ve always struggled promptly replying to messages from friends and family. I find it a struggle to authentically express myself so everything feels really forced and empty, like there’s doubt laced into every word I type.

What is happening here, is this something that will change with more regulation?
Call Tag: family
What to do if you’re in a situation like a single mom who has kids and you’re trying to do this work and you don’t have the break that that partner can come in and give you

In today’s call, Irene gives the example of stubbing her toe and how to work through that in body orienting. Can you please give an example of something happening more emotional than physical and how to work through that in the body?
