Have you ever felt a stranger within your own skin? Our latest episode tenderly addresses the shadows of trauma with a poet who transforms their healing journey into a symphony of words. Their poetry, encapsulating the raw essence of dissociation, serves as both a mirror and a map for those navigating the treacherous terrains of post-trauma existence. As the verses from "Dissociation" echo throughout our conversation, we witness the vulnerability and strength it takes to reclaim the body as a sanctuary, to mend the severed ties with one's emotions, and to seek safety within when the outside world has taught you otherwise.
This candid dialogue with our guest peels back the layers of survival mechanisms that so many carry unseen. Through their poignant reflections and the stanzas of their poem, featured in "The Journey Back to Myself: A Book of Healing Poetry, Second Edition," and "Sound Alchemy: A Warrior's Path," we offer understanding, solace, and solidarity. It's not just about the struggle with flashbacks, the empty gaze to avoid pain, or the haunting nightmares—it's about the unwavering quest to live freely in one's skin. Tune in for a moving testament to resilience and the continual effort to make a home within oneself.
Connecting to the beautiful sounds of hand pan.
