Even though I have oftentimes been at war with my body, I have always had a notion that my body could also be the gate to new inner explorations. Therefore, when I heard that Laura Hollik was holding a day event where anybody could join and participate in what she calls bodymapping, I instantly knew it was for me. I didn’t have the time to join in that particular day, since my daughter fell of a chair and hit one of her teeth, which had me spending the afternoon at the dentist’s office. Random fact: I did the same thing when I was a toddler.
Anyway, two days ago I found myself waking up with a whole day to myself stretching out before me. I took the kids to daycare, finished my most important dobedo’s for the day, set everything else aside, and dove in. From the moment I lay the canvas out on the floor I was sucked into the process. So much so that I couldn’t follow through the way I was “supposed to”. I just let go and leaned into the flow.

Looking at what I did, I felt I like my body. I was happy that I have the body I have, and felt a connection with it I rarely do.
I felt rooted.
