I believe in therapy. But I believe in the right kind of therapy. The kind of therapy that is self-prescribed.
You might be wondering, why?
When it comes to healing or understanding your body, there is only one person who knows best more than anyone else, you! No one else. Even your favorite primary doctor who might have gone to school for the last thousand years will not know what it means to move, breathe, and live in the body that you have occupied.
You — know what is best for you. Now granted, sometimes you might struggle to really feel your body and its intricacies. Sometimes you might not detect the symptoms of that cold, and find yourself sidelined from life.
You might find yourself, at times, unable to relate and feel like a foreigner in your own body.
That’s completely okay.
I think we have been designed to break down every so often in order to come back polished, completely reinvented. Sort of like a phoenix, we resurrect into something new with traces of the old. We evolve and adapt to the ever-changing climate of our consciousness and physical environment.
It’s a healthy ritual.
