The Place We Find Ourselves

CHAPTER

The Body Is a Major Prophet Not a Minor Prophet

A great section in this chapter where you talk about the importance of listening to our bodies when it comes to healing from trauma.

I come from a Pentecostal evangelical kind of tradition where the body is very simply a container for the soul and do everything you can to suppress the body, ignore the body so that the spirit can be free. The key to wholeness is not separating ourselves from our bodies but integrating our body into the kind of freedom that we're really longing for yes.
