"The opposite of trauma is... where we begin to experience what couldn't exist when all our body could do was survive."

LEXY FLORENTINA
"Keep some room in your heart for the unimaginable."

MARY OLIVER
"The opposite of trauma isn't "healed", it's: aliveness, connection, curiosity, play, presence."

LEXY FLORENTINA
"The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change."

CARL ROGERS
"Now that I'm free to be myself, who am I?"

MARY OLIVER
"The best thing I've ever done is begin."

RUDY FRANCISCO
"And now that you don't have to be perfect, you can be good."

JOHN STEINBECK
"I did not bloom to be seen. I bloomed because it was time."

MARIE CHARON
"I feel, therefore I can be free."

AUDRE LORDE
"How we heal is by allowing ourselves to share our stories and truths, and have someone witness us without judgement."
"Shared joy is twice the joy. Shared sorrow is half the sorrow.”

SWEDISH PROVERB
“Feelings are tunnels, you have to go all the way through to get to the light at the end.”

EMILY NAGOSKI
“We shake with joy, we shake with grief. What a time they have, these two housed as they are in the same body.”

MARY OLIVER
“By closing the door, you create the room.”

PRIYA PARKER
“There is no greater source of joy and meaning in our lives than our relationships with others.”

ESTHER PEREL
“The only way to survive is by taking care of one another.”

GRACE LEE BOGGS
“...that’s what joy is: vibrantly alive peace. It is the joy of knowing yourself as the very life essence before life takes on form. That is the joy of Being - of being who you truly are.”
