The past two years have brought painful, even traumatic circumstances on multiple levels beyond our control. Today, many of us are weary even as the world tells us we should be returning to normal. As we cope with grief, anxiety, and other negative emotions—learning to better attend to our relationship with our own bodies is critical to move toward healing.
