Meanwhile, would you like to read our story about "Sensing Life"?

Two weekends changed my life.

Jerry and I went to experience something called “Insidelic” — what Dr. Diogo Lara and Paola Reichert Leite are now calling “Sensing Life.” We thought we were going to learn a healing method. Instead, we ended up experiencing one of the deepest transformations of our lives.

It was so profound that after the first weekend, we immediately went back the next weekend.

At first, I thought this was going to be about trauma healing in the way people usually talk about healing — the obvious pain. The mountain-top moments. Abuse. PTSD. Loss. Fear.

And yes, this work does help with those things.

But what surprised me was that it reached somewhere even deeper.

It reached the silent places.

The places inside us that were never touched with love.

The unmet needs.
The loneliness.
The absence of comfort.
The grief we were never allowed to feel.
The love we never received, so we didn’t even know it was missing.

I grew up as the youngest of eight children. By the time my parents got to me, life was survival. My mother was overwhelmed, and then she died when I was 6 years old. My father was busy trying to hold life together. No one intentionally harmed me — but no one truly saw me either.

I normalized it.

I normalized never being comforted.
Never being held.
Never being nurtured.

How could I miss something I had never experienced?

And then, during these sessions, something extraordinary happened.

Through sound, vibration, music, loving presence, and gentle human touch, parts of me that had been frozen for decades began to wake up.

It felt like my body remembered something my mind never knew.

I remember one moment so vividly.

Paola gently placed her hands on my face during my first session. Just a loving caress. The kind a safe mother gives a child.

I wept so hard.

I had no idea how much was missing in my life.

For us both, some of the deepest healing came when we were simply being held. No medicine. No psychedelic. Just love, safety, vibration, sound, and truth.

Suddenly I was no longer an adult trying to “manage life.” The depth of this work took me back to memories of being a terrified baby in a crib, shaking while adults screamed around me.

And for the first time in my life, someone stayed.

Someone held me through it.

Not to fix me.
Not to stop my feelings.
But to love me while I felt them.

Something inside me finally relaxed.

This work is different from anything I’ve ever experienced.

Sensing Life helped me heal trauma.
Sensing Life helped me fill the holes.

The holes of neglect.
The holes of silence.
The holes of never being comforted.
The holes of never feeling truly safe to speak.

And afterward, I felt alive.

Not numb.
Not euphoric.
Alive.

Even people around me noticed. One person looked at me and said:
“You look alive.”

And they were right.

I spoke more freely.
I felt more deeply.
I stopped living inside old fear loops.
I began telling the truth — to myself, to Jerry, and to others.

This experience changed our marriage too.

Jerry realized his anger had become protection.
I realized my fear had become appeasement.

We had been trapped in a loop for almost 30 years of our marriage that neither of us fully understood.

And suddenly, we could see it.

Not with blame.
With compassion.

That’s what this work does.

Not numbing.
Not escaping.
Not bypassing.

Feeling.
Sensing.
Receiving.
Healing.

It brings truth and love together.

And perhaps the most beautiful part is this:
It is as effective as MDMA therapy for PTSD, and it is legal .

No substances
No serotonin depletion.
No talking required.
No opinions from someone else.

Just sound.
Vibration.
Music.
Presence.
Touch.
Truth.
Love.

I believe this work has the potential to help countless people who are carrying silent pain they don’t even know exists.

The pain beneath the trauma.
The silent weeping beneath the surface.

For me, Sensing Life wasn’t just healing.

It was like finally coming home to ourselves.

It was coming alive.
