I shaved my head when traveling solo in Nepal back in '79. I had been very self-conscious about my profile and used to hide behind my beautiful long blond tresses. It was a way of "coming out" and showing myself fully.
8:41 My body has not been true to me. I've just learned this. However, there are therapies I'm doing that are changing this. For example, hyper-vigilance causes a fight-or-flight response when none is needed. It's incredibly freeing to "teach" my body to respond in a more natural way.
We love how you articulated this, Tammy - that it can be freeing to work with your body in a natural way. We appreciate this share, and you, so very much.
Love what Liz says about her digital Sabbath. I LOVE it when I forget my phone, don't check it for hours and hours, and take days away from not only my phone but also my computer, the TV, all media, etc. It's AMAZING - and I've learned that I need more days like this in my life. And, of course her talk about having/not having kids. Prior to getting married, I said I *didn't* want to have kids. Like, it was so expected of me (for all the reasons Liz mentioned) and I found that to be utterly repugnant. Then, around age 34, my clock started ticking (biological). Yet, every time I considered having kids with my former spouse, I would fly into utter panic and terror - that to have kids would NOT be the wise thing. I did this for years before I left the relationship. Sometimes I think if I'd been with the "right" person, maybe the outcome would have been different. Alas, am 44 and having kids is no longer an option for me. AND I'm happier and healthier than I've EVER been (and, have more money than when I was married...)
"...and now that I approach it I find that I cannot do it..." If I had only practiced this when I was in my 20s. No regrets of course, but if you are in your 20s watching this, try it out. Marie, this is a topic that could be expanded on. You have videos about quitting, but I don't recall an episode about breaking promises and maintaining integrity. Or even recovering integrity after breaking a promise.
We don‘t really know how live authentically when we‘re young.. no one does! A newly grad in Highschool doesn’t know what course to take.. a newly college grad, doesn‘t know which direction to take.. until we experience all the bullshits first, we don‘t really know what our souls really need. It is longing for something .. since birth but we have to go thru processing until something unexpected comes our way.

Beautifully said. We need to live through so many experiences in order to figure out who we are! ❤
Fabulous 🙏💜🙏💜
