Key Quotes:
“So much of your body is your subconscious mind. And so what we need to do is sort of incrementally start to open up our capacity to hold more. And when we do that there's more room for expansion, and there's more room for contraction, but you can't have one without the other.” - Christa Bevan
“All our bodies are just telling us stories all the time, our bodies are just giving us signals and just sharing something with us.” - Renee Reese
“This is normal. We expand, we contract, we expand, and contract.” - Shelby Leigh
