Meditation has become a core healing practice for me since my diagnosis. It's bringing me a surprising amount of sheer joy, which has to be good for my dopamine levels...
Thank you! I agree, it's sometimes so hard to hold on to our sensitivity and true self in this world. Thankfully we have a lot more support to do that these days, and the stigma about talking about it all is receding x
I can relate Catherine! The Parkinson’s personality that Hadlock describes fits me how too nicely as well. I have been working with her approach for months now. I haven’t called it Parkinson’s in quite some time. I call it stuck on pause. I am also reading up on the polyvagal theory which does a nice job describing the dorsal vagal freeze or stuck state. Deb Dana has some practical books on this as well.
Beautiful words..... and that is your essence. Our essence often gets lost in this world where we are always being urged to meet expectations, rather than the world gently adjusting to each and every one of us, with acceptance, and in what we need and who we are.
Thank you Helen xxx
