To heal is to become Whole.  To heal is to bring our darkness, our traumas and our wounds into their highest expression, which is Love.  This is where the work is.  How the traumas and the darkness shows up and rather how we show up for it is very personal and organic.  We begin as we are.  The darker energies are seductive, due to their feel of familiarity; recognizing this is huge.  This is where we train the mind to take a different route.  Our power lies in our ability and freedom to choose.
