“I arrived at Manaar’s circle, I’d like to say by chance, but then nothing is by chance. For almost 3 years I’ve been in a lot of emotional pain on multiple levels. I don’t know how I was continuing to function. Manaar had me focus on my body, my emotions & my pain. She asked me to try to vocalize what I was feeling. I was scared but she gave me permission & the courage to do it. I used my voice, which has always been timid and shy, to vocalize my pain. I put my pain into my voice. It started weak, slow, soft, and timid. Then it began to shift and became firmer, bolder, louder, and fuller. I completely let go and surrendered. A raw guttural sound erupted from every cell & from the depth of my being. It was a total & all-encompassing pain release. My sound went on & on… long long, long. I didn’t realize I hadn’t taken a breath for an unbelievable amount of time. I released! It was beyond any experience I’ve ever had… if that makes sense. I was completely drained but good drained. I was relaxed, centered, and grounded in my body. I’ve been able to continue to carry this feeling with me. The day after, my birthday, I spent alone. I was ok & I am ok. This experience has been transformational …”
