Happy July, SynerLINK friends,
This month’s lead articles are a pair lovely essays about embracing your body this summer. What joyful things are you holding yourself back from because of your fears and self-judgments? What would it be like to let those go, even for a little while, to embrace all the wonderful things your body can do, right now, just as it is?
Also, be sure to check out the link to a special radio show on PTSD, which I was honored to have been asked to contribute to.
