#133 - Her First Ball
A sweet, sleepy story by Katherine Mansfield about a young country woman's outing to her first ball in the big city.
This week I took a class online with Dr. Gabor Maté and his teaching on healing trauma and compassionate inquiry moved me deeply. I wrote a bit about it in the blog as well as how I saw those issues so clearly through the characters in Scenes From A Marriage on HBO when Joe and I watched it this week. There's also a photo of the whole family on the couch getting ready to watch the show, so if you're interested, it's all at https://www.listentosleep.com/blog/scenes-from-a-marriage/.
