[My teacher] Beatrice LaCroix's...hands were gnarled with arthritis from years of tightly focused stitchwork. She was cranky in a French way and authoritative but kind. I didn't realize that last part at the time, I was a crazy, rageful teenager who had a hard time seeing most authority figures as caring humans. [When I slipped and cut down the middle of the precious leather fabric I had scrimped to purchase for my senior collection], I already held the story that I ruined everything. This situation just proved it. Mrs. LaCroix was so patient...She told me, "The best art is made from mistakes....
[My teacher] Beatrice LaCroix's...hands were gnarled with arthritis from years of tightly focused stitchwork. She was cranky in a French way and authoritative but kind. I didn't realize that last part at the time, I was a crazy, rageful teenager who had a hard time seeing most authority figures as caring humans. [When I slipped and cut down the middle of the precious leather fabric I had scrimped to purchase for my senior collection], I already held the story that I ruined everything. This situation just proved it. Mrs. LaCroix was so patient...She told me, "The best art is made from mistakes." Then, she proceeded to help me get creative with ways to fix it. Deciding to live is a daily choice: in a world that forces false binaries on multidimensional beings, it can be hard to re-member ourselves whole. We are not meant to do this alone. lucid dawn first grasped her freedom from the binary of good and bad, boy and girl, self and other, through the most challenging of trials. In and out of foster homes as young teen and then thrown out onto the streets North of Boston in the grips of drugs and abuse, Lucid came face-to-face with the edge of life and death. In a pivotal moment, lucid accessed an inner and outer knowing larger than their one life that became her portal to not only survive that moment but go on to thrive and to teach others wisdom traditions for decades. In Dispelling the Binary, lucid compiles 30 years of rebirthing-practice and 20+ years of dedicated teaching of trauma-informed yoga and tantric lineages in an easy-to-read volume that is part memoir, part practice manual and self help workbook, to help all of us dispel the crushing binaries that force us to segregate our parts as a means of controlling us. But our true nature is nonbinary and free. All of us. From the most privileged to the most marginalized. In a book that reaches beyond self-help to discuss how false binaries seek to control us systemically through the false gender binary, the invented racial binary, and all other forms of systemic oppression, lucid offers practical steps, beginning in each of or bodies, to dissolve the the externally-imposed walls in our physical and energetic bodies to support us back to our true nature. We are unbridled, free, blissfully nonbinary in every way. Open this book if you dare to reclaim your true nature.
