Hey couch. I just got home from attending a releasing/clearing circle with my drumming group. It was super-fantastic!! There were probably 40 people there, and for part of it we made rhythm as a group, those of us who have drums were drumming and those who didn't rattled and we used our voices too and at one point it got really loud but we were one 'voice' y'know, not individuals making separate noises, just, wow is all I can say. It was so powerful.

And during the drumming/rattling I felt it right down to my toes... between that and yesterday with t, I have let go of my old story. And today as I beat my drum and raised my voice in my own song that blended in with those of others, I made my transition into my new story, stepping into it with gratitude and so much love in my heart. I really feel that the healing I was searching for when I first started with current t almost 5 years ago, is now done, and I am healed. And healing takes on another meaning as I move now toward a life of helping others heal - I don't know yet what that is going to look like, but I am no longer afraid. I am looking forward to discussing this with t next Saturday, and also very interested to see how a week of work will be with the changes that have happened in me this weekend.

This feels like big stuff, couchies. And I am excited for the future and writing my "new story" as I go along.
