Our bodies, like the Earth, are the keepers of memory.
~Dr. Ruby Gibson
So ... let's think about this shit.
Within my body in 2025 is the memory of being kidnapped from the only home I've ever known --
-- transported across a vast ocean that my worldview could only conceive to be a much smaller body of water --
-- enslaved + horrendously abused physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, socially, and more ... --
-- oppressed, segregated, subjugated, hunted, and otherwise discriminated against for 406 years.
Alllllll of this as memory is kept
within
my body.
my Black body
My Black body that is disproportionately predisposed to chronic conditions like
ππ½ diabetes
ππ½ high blood pressure
ππ½ high cholesterol
My Black body may not have endured lashes + lynchings -- yet it holds my inherited genes from ancestors who did endure these atrocious indignities. And because it holds these genesΒ (epigenetics) that remember deep traumas like these, the stressors of my own life can turn on conditions and diseases that develop from heightened and prolonged exposure(s) to hormones that are designed to keep me safe from existential threats.
My Black body cannot + should not sustain forever this heightened level of flight, fight, freeze, or fawn in the face of a ghosting enemy. So, I need a way to heal + recover ...
... and that way is through somatic healing.
