        One of my absolute favorites. It relaxes me physically and helps me go deep—to understand the details of how and why I act. Becoming aware of the motives and intentions behind my actions helps me change my attitude toward myself. And that brings another layer of release. Sometimes I approach a ritual with a specific intention, but Aya brings me an insight into something completely different, which is ultimately much more important.
