You have a body. ⠀ You are not just spirit, thoughts, & holiness. Your body is not wrong, evil, or misguided. Your body holds generations of wisdom. It is not just some holding place for the “real you”. ⠀ You caring for your body and acknowledging it as a neutral aspect of “self” is pivotal in order to trust oneself, connect to others, experience pleasure, nurture yourself physically, & most importantly be present in your day to day living. ⠀ Reconnecting to your body can be tough after decades of being told it’s depraved & base. It can be so difficult to connect to sensations, desires, even feelings themselves, after being taught to run all of those through a religious perfection filter. ⠀ If you’re struggling to connect and trust your body through your deconstruction, we might be a good fit!
