"Speak out loud what you thought you couldn’t say, FEEL what you’ve denied your body to feel, and you will begin your healing journey."

If we are to live with an open and awakened heart, we must step out of the limitations that have been imposed on us. We must remember who we are and that our birthright is to know our Love and our freedom to BE and feel safe, wild and expanded, deeply grounded in our bodies and awed by the gift of life.
