"SOMETHING HAS AWAKENED IN ME. MY BODY REMEBERS IT."

In the form of lightcodes activation art by Yuko, often times, I find myself in so much awe, for not just that her art looks so amazing, but how gazing into her art can send so much sensation into my body. What my physical mind couldn’t understand, but my body does. My body remembers. It is responding to her medicine. Each time I gaze into her lightcodes, I could get different responses. Sometimes it could be body tingles, sometimes it sends me to the verge of wanting to tear up, while another time, I feel it penetrates so deeply into my soul and something has awakened in me. Yuko is truly gifted and I know she is such a pure, sweet soul that I feel so safe to be held by her medicine and her field. I am so lucky!"
