my "primal panic" response is "Freeze" (the others are "Fight", "Flight", "Fawn")

you do not choose your "primal panic" response

please love yourself, as we do, seeing the amazing you

please take care

So you run, run, run and pedal, pedal, pedal
While I scribble, scribble, scribble and doodle, doodle, doodle
Sometimes aimlessly

Yesterday I singed up for a 12 week course on the bodies nervous system and how to help treat disorders with our systems.

After Joe woke from nightshift we installed our new sauna and went for a drive. We talk better in the car at times. On our way home we stopped by our local cafe to have some brunch together, something we hardly ever get chance to do. Half way through our meal Donya walks in and we all have a coffee together. We laughed, I tried not to tear up as i felt so lucky to have such a good friend. Joe opened up about things and Donya explained to him about negative energy and what it does to the body. Being a kinesiologist she full of interesting information. Joe took this on board. After the coffee we ended up going for yet another drive and talking more.
Only to come home and part ways back to night shift for him and me into the sauna to sweat it out.

I did apologise to Joe for being such a shit wife for many years while i battled with things. I felt a lift of emotion that has been brewing for a few days. Currently feel like a walking zombie.

Apologising is like baring your soft underbelly.
