Before breaks we actually sometimes do this...I mean I dont really act T-ish but I get to ask whatever questions I want about her life/past. I guess maybe shed refuse to tell me something but so far not. She is leaving for a trip at the end of next week so on my session Wednesday I am going to be asking her about how she got into yoga, and whether she has body image issues and if so how she copes with them.
I don't have the weight of an intense session to deal with while she is gone, listening to her talk relaxes me, and we usually end up both feeling great about it.
