I haven't gone to therapy either dressed or under dressed for over 10 months because I haven't felt the need (doing barre and pole dancing has seemed to meet my needs). Today when i got there I felt the urge/need to throw on a sports bra when I arrived (I had one in my car that I planned to start wearing when pole picks up again in the fall). About mid session I mentioned the bra to my therapist and that my feeling once I got in her office was that I really didn't think the bra was doing much for me.
She said "Well this is very interesting because I noticed that today your eye contact has been so much more direct and that your body language is a bit different than it has been of late." She said she had not noticed the sports bra. We discussed this some more and the plan is to see if just by being conscious about increasing eye contact, whether I can replicate how I acted today.
Curious what others here may think or if anyone has had a similar thing happen to them? Be kind, thanks
