23 Years of Grief
Something Positive for Positive People
November 19, 2024
When I was 12 years old at the end of October/early November before my 13th birthday November 10th, my grandmother on my dad’s side was in the hospital. She passed away at some point the week before my birthday which in 2001 was on a Saturday. This was the day they scheduled her funeral and I have remembered very distinct moments of that day that I just can’t forget. I’ve forgotten more than what I can remember, but the thing is that the body knows and remembers far better than the conscious mind does. What was repressed into my subconscious over the years has forced its way to the surface especially since I started Yoga Teacher Training and Therapy around the same time.
