Fantastic work.

I just got your book, "Sons of Feminism: Men Have Their Say", today, too.

Thank you for doing all of this work.

For preparing us with the logical arguments, the words, the research to defend ourselves against this hateful force.

Growing up under this influence, I still witness glimmers of its effects on my behavior, reactions and mood - which can leave me feing a bit depressed and/or frustrated - even helpless.

However, your work brightens my day.

Happy New Years to you, Janice Fiamengo.

May the Wind Be at Your Back.

P.S. to anyone feeling burnt out, dissociative, unable to be present or to get into flow state or stuck in life - I've started to utilize somatic modalities of psychotherapy such as somatic experiencing, and have found it to be profoundly effective. Before that I did a year of regular talk therapy with internal family systems work, which was okay - but the somatic work has been way more impactful to me. Irene Lyon of irenelyon.com has been my teacher. She's fair and respectable. Somatic modalities teach trauma physiology, trauma as trapped survival stress and how to systematically release this stress via specific mindfulness exercises - asa result the nervous system can enter a truly deep parasympathetic low tone healing state. Based on the work of Dr. Peter Levine, Kathy Kain, Dr. Bessel Van Der Kolk, etc.

Apologies if this comes off as solicitous. I have no financial relationship with her. This Somatic Experiencing and other somatic modalities she teaches has helped me grow more resilient in a way that traditional talk therapy never even touched upon. If this resonates with anyone reading this - consider it's exploration.
