You are a true storyteller, my friend! Can't thank @vincentnijman enough for bringing you with us!
For me, writing is my medicine as well. This entry is so thoughtful; you allowed me to go there with you. And oh how beautiful it is to read how present you are within you as it drives me back to my center as well.
I walk, apart from society, but so connected with the world that matters and the further I go the closer I become to my central point; That place from which the true me can emerge, and hide if necessary.
Beautiful. Welcome to the Natural Medicine community. Feel free to say hi in our Discord channel whenever you want.

Aww thank you so much, I am humbled. I'll admit, there are moments I look at something I've written and feel very pleased with it - I believe it is because I write what I feel more than what I think, although thinking comes into play of course.
I have a process in life that helps to replace the status quo within me. It revolves around playing a movie in my mind of something that makes my heart sing, that walk on the beach above for instance. But not just to see the images; I delve deeper to feel the emotions, smell the salty air, hear the waves, the crunch of sand beneath my feet...And then feel as I did in that very moment. That's the goal - The feeling, not just the memory.
I may be between appointments, sitting in my car, when I do this and I use this technique to reset. It works most of the time and allows me to move forward into the next phase of my day from a position of neutrality at worst, and positivity at best.
The piece I wrote here describes one such moment in a poor fashion, but demonstrates what my minds eye sees when I need to fine centre.
Of course, nothing quite beats the act of walking on that beach...But I can't always do that when enmeshed in the grind of society in the modern day.
Thank you for your kind words. I am grateful and appreciative.
