My Greatest Teacher, Adoption
want to share my journey and healing through adoption in hopes that it serves as inspiration for others who share this experience.
Adoption has been my greatest teacher. I was adopted at five days old. When I was born, my birth mother didn’t want to see or touch me. I imagine myself placed in a bassinet, barely touched by the busy nursing staff, who, in the 70s, didn’t yet understand the critical importance of physical touch for child development—a concept now recognized through attachment theory.
The Well 52: Beth Porter
The Well 52 with Beth Porter
Hello! My name is Beth Porter and I’m a Cincinnati native living in Colorado. I have a healing practice (Earth & Ether) where I help people understand what’s going on under the surface. The process often looks like healing trauma, past programming and limiting beliefs — a reconciliation of who you thought you were with who you really are. I work with a healing system called Emotional Polarity Technique™ (EPT™) to uncover the unresolved conflict keeping you stuck in some outdated version of yourself. In my work with clients, I help them find peace and alignment through forgiveness.
