My intention was to convey the exact opposite. In fact, my stomping session had little thinking, mostly stomping, drumming, hitting the pillow, praying...lots of movement that actually made me sweat! LOL! I found it super healing to give myself permission to bounce around in a safe environment and let some of this crazy come out! It worked so well that I really laughied at myself. It allowed me to quit the anxious cycle. Reading posts would not have done it for me at that moment...I had to get it out viscerally first.
Just a big believer in allowing the emotions to come up and out so that they are not the source of more stress. We are all so beautifully different in how we do this.
And to your point Peter, reading posts is really really soothing too.
Many many blessing, Caroline
