I rememeber when the reality of separation and divorce from my EX was still a fresh wound that cut so deeply my body went into protective shock.  As much as my spirit felt lost and ungrounded, my physical body went numb -- especially my feet.  Years later, and after much emotional healing, I finally have the pleasure of inhabiting my body fully again.  But with that comes the awareness of the physical pain of being a pavement stomping New Yorker, professional dancer and aerial artist.
