Embodiment Active Imagination Parts Work
“All the wonders you seek are within yourself.”
Thomas Browne
Here we are in each moment supported and living with the elements and essences of the cosmos, but our focus mostly goes towards what is wrong. As animals this is normal; our sympathetic and parasympathic nervous systems still function to protect us, even when we don’t need it. Here at Self & Soul, we honor our old ways of protection and embrace the calm, curious, compassionate, loving, open-minded Self that also resides within. “Make a journey out of self into Self, oh Friend, for by such a journey earth became a mine of gold.” (Jelaluddin Rumi)
