I think it would be weirdly boring too. And the vulnerable spots are where we can connect to others so deeply.

And the kinesthetic stuff really counters the shame/fear for me. The shame--where it comes from--it's hard to even say because it's everywhere--it's systemic. But it has been stirred up by this loss/grief--it does come family of course so losing one of them and then having that loss make me see the whole family system more clearly have double-stirred it up. But it's also from lots of other things, feeling outside, feeling defective. . . those sorts of things. These topics–running/yoga and the psychological ones–are all entwined for me I think.

The shame–where it comes from–it’s hard to even say because it’s everywhere–it’s systemic. But it has been stirred up by this loss/grief–it does come family of course so losing one of them and then having that loss make me see the whole family system more clearly have double-stirred it up. But it’s also from lots of other things, feeling outside, feeling defective. . . those sorts of things.
