“Healing” has become as obfuscated and overused a term as the “trauma” that it entails. Don’t think any of these things come wrapped in obvious and easily openable packages. The path to healing, and the reasons for trauma, are for the individual and the individual alone to find. A true therapist will offer you the tools, the agency, and the empowerment to find your own path and forge it. THAT is healing.

Do you believe technology has harmed or helped our physical bodies thus far? Do you think it will get better or worse? You have the power to push for the positive outcomes. Do it.

Your ART is the pain that your body was put here to EXPRESS. What interface you use to do so? Humans have always adapted their bodies to external interfaces as ways to communicate feelings.

All actions performed in the world are actions carried out by (and through) our bodies. Procuring healthy food is a complex task, and requires a cognitive ability and expertise that is different than it was for our #huntergatherer friends, though by no means simpler. Healthy sustenance still depends on thorough long-term thinking and concise planning. The gut says "hunger", but the brain (and a well coordinated body) must get us in the car and drive to the grocery store to dutifully read the ingredients to make sure we are not being poisoned, or we are not compromising the long-term health of our children and family. This is a feature of our intelligence that keeps us from pecking in the dirt for immediate satiation. Healthy long-term thinking is essential to our continued success, survival and evolution as humans. #spatialmedicine #alternativetherapy #bodywork #bitcoin
