I sit in this Question: Who Am I Without all of these identifications. I have been studying the nine mind states with gentleness and care from Pema Chodron's course on Vulnerability. I promised myself that this year I would care for my diabetes differently, take ownership and take whatever necessary steps i need to support my body. My dietican offers me education and support in the beginning stages of recovery from disordered eating. Last night was an emotional evening for me, old patterns of trauma would have been to go home open the fridge and find that couch, eating my way through my emotions instead of allowing my feelings. I allowed my feelings to be and chose to be listening to the still small voice of wisdom within. i am committed to letting my old conditions of Trauma go saying a fond fair well as these conditions had served me as protection. What i have come to understand is that within the tissues and cells live these conditions that are familiar and come forward at various times and what does prevail as the first point of contact is a new template that i create. There is no longer a sense of whose body what body...my body that I soley own. Live this ordiness of life with calm, joy and connection. The be present model shares who am I outside the distress of oppression, meeting myself over and over. Stay tuned.
