Absolutely gorgeous words as always Cassandra

Beautifully written. The distinction you make between emotional awareness and emotional relationship is profound and clinically spot on. Suppression may look like strength, but healing begins with honest expression. “Emotions need motion” says it all.

love this piece so much!! I recently started somatic healing and dance has been so powerful for me in releasing my emotions. It's comforting to know that you don't always need to understand or think about the emotion, you simply just need to move through it with your body and allow what comes up (and sometimes that includes screaming in a pillow or shaking your body - just like animals do!)
