Moxie, this is so true. I don't know if hate is the right word, but it is truly difficult to go through life and have these automatic responses to things that we seem to have no control over because they are so deeply embedded in our brains and bodies. No amount of healing work takes away the memories, even if you forget, like you say - the body and mind remember.

I take it you are a reader since you recommended a book. Have you read "The Body Keeps Score"? http://www.amazon.com/Body-Keeps-Sco...dy+keeps+score
It's definitely on my wishlist. Anyways, thanks for taking time to reply.
