When I was used to going weekly, I would feel very shy when we got back together. I would not know what to say and just felt hard to get started due to the shyness. I told him once that it was hard to get started because I felt shy, and he was quite charmed. He said there was no rush and we could just sit in that shyness for a while until I felt ready. I just tried to honor my feelings, not feel bad if I wasn't able to plunge right back in, and take my time. Maybe we would chit chat a few minutes or even longer instead of getting right down to the work of the session. Get used to each other again.

Now that we have been together longer, I don't have that problem. And I really enjoy the first sessions back because they are like mini-reunions. It feels good to be back together and feel that connection. It doesn't go away. If it was there once, it is still there. Just have to allow it to come out again.
