Boarding School At Age 2.5 Years Old | PTSD | Recovery | Boarding School Syndrome | AEM #85 Roger Sharpley

Boarding at age two and a half. Today I am speaking with Roger Sharpley who went to boarding school from the ages of 2.5 until 7.5 years old.

What was the impact for him in his life?

Why did his parents send him and his sister to boarding school at such a young age?

We also talk about the path of recovery he has taken.

We talk about Buddhism, Tai Chi, Qigong, meditation, therapy and singing.

A very heart felt and sometimes tearful podcast episode this week.
