Exactly what I need. Until I was diagnosed 10 years ago with complex chronic ptsd due to childhood - I would go so far as to say infancy and inherited in the womb - I never believed it or the damage it caused. Now at age 70 after dedicated treatment and practice, it is still hard for me to accept. Now that I am beginning to be aware of how often a day I self-shame my self, have terror attacks and dissociate for no apparent reason - I know this practice, when mastered, will change everything. Thank you.

I have done many YN tracks on here and this one took me to a very unique space of relaxation all the way through. It’s soul-flossing! Thank you.
