I have been working on letting my feelings drive my understanding because I think it's in the body that all of this stuff is held there.

I found this statement to be very interesting. I guess since I feel like I've been conditioned to do the opposite. To ignore my feelings so that they DON'T drive my understanding or adversely influence rational thought.

I also thought your comment about the body holding stuff was interesting too. I believe this as well. Unfortunately the stuff held seems to be in a different language for me and cannot be then expressed clearly enough to discuss in therapy.
