It is always incredible to watch what our bodies can do. How a baby develops and learns, our ever increasing capacity for understanding, but also how our bodies heal from injuries, harnessing the power of our internal systems while we blindly experience the benefits. Truly, our bodies are amazing! Allow me share what happened with my own body over the last 19.5 months – without me even knowing…
