Three Powerful Words: ‘I Don’t Know’
that I would give it a try, and am still doing it, eleven years later.
So, what, exactly do I not know?
I do not know ‘why’ things happen. I do not know ‘why’ I react to some things and not others. I do not know anything about anyone other than me, and I only grasp the edges and corners of me.

How much easier we flow through our lives, how much easier we communicate, how much easier we can understand ourselves after Bodywork.
Notes and Recommendations

Because our minds are looking for complexity (as opposed to [tag]Simple Presence[/tag],) we resist the idea that the “many, many” issues we think we have are usually the same issue, in different guises.
My favourite way of saying this is, “Baskin Robbins has 32 flavours, and they are all Ice Cream.”
