Lyrical Healing

Celebrate the Darkness (and Light)

May 12, 2023 Nancy Paul

"Both light and shadow are the dance of Love." ~ Rumi

I've highlighted my logo photograph to illustrate the value of darkness. Aren't the shadows lovely? They draw me in. I want to dwell in them! They dance with the shell. They seem to caress the curves and lines. They define the curves and lines. Imagine this shell with no shadows.....

This is how I see people. Your shadows draw me in! I confess I want to dwell in them ;) And they are rich in potential. A person with no Shadow ....who would that be?

Enjoy the dark (and lights) of this season. And come show me your Shadow :)

We all have these feelings. Let us honor them.
I can help you to feel those feelings, and honor them, just because they are part of you...
Noirmaste -- the dark in me honors the dark in you.
And I can help you "feel it to heal it" when that's appropriate.

Your Shadowy Parts Enhance your Radiance

February 2, 2020 Nancy Paul

The shadows in this shell delineate its lovely curves,

just as your shadowy parts enhance your radiance.

EMDR, in effect, brings light to the dark places in our psyches.

CranioSacral therapy involves "listening" to, and honoring, our pain and discomfort (and also our ease). We created the dark place(s) in an attempt to protect ourselves or others. We have needed the dark. Let's honor that. And also honor the comfort... and joy ;-)
