When you’re moving out of the house you called home, A box drops on your foot and a hairline fracture takes you down and out for another six months of your mid-life. no big deal, you tell your self, I’ll be back on my feet in no time. Haha. Sounds good but then reality sets in.

In the real world, No time at all stretches into weeks and then months, I find myself restless, angry and despairing. I can barely move but my mind is running away with my optimism. as my mind becomes my own worst enemy, my thoughts become dark and pessimistic, lost in the shadows. this is my story of how I recovered my self from an epic fall that turned into a mental health crisis I was embarrassed to have.

Radical Self Care was the miracle I was called upon to create in my own life – once I faced my own descent into depressing thoughts and despairing feelings. My call to awaken. This healing journey is what has inspired me to record the lessons I have learned and share them with you in Zen Centered: Healing Your Intuitive Body.
