children crying. Sometimes endlessly. Bracha thought about<br />

nowadays, of families of refugees with young children and babies, but<br />

also associations of the holocaust popped in.<br />

Next day in the morning, on the flight back, it was Anca's<br />

turn to experience strong anxiety, when she suddenly realized that her<br />

daughters did not answer her messages, and worried that maybe they<br />

did not even receive them.<br />

After two hours, we finally landed in Tel-Aviv. Anca spoke<br />

with her daughters and the drama was at an end.<br />

For a few days, we told our story to family and friends. We<br />

found that beyond the narrative the story has in it a deep uncanny<br />

experience which is not easy to convey.<br />

We understood how this unplanned experience gave us the<br />

opportunity to embody the content of the conference in our body-mind.<br />

When we landed we thought that the title should be: "taking<br />

the conference (back home) seriously".<br />
