It's about the Ride

The destination, truly,

is all but meaningless.

It can be a HUGE distraction

that shoots us out of our bodies

as we desperately try

to already BE in the future

while regretting ourselves

in the moment,

(not to mention the past).

We lose this magnificent moment;

the only moment

where our power is.

And the thing that causes illness

the thing that causes self-doubt

the thing that causes pain and suffering

is resisting ourselves,

our own experiencing,

in this moment.

Resisting this magnificent Being

that we are. Right now.

Say “Yes” to that. Say 'Yes" to self,

to movement, to sensation

to breath, to being.

Feel and be with what is,

here, in this moment.

That's IT!

There is no more!

Of course, there’s more.

There’s always more!

But we don’t have to

NOT enjoy ourselves NOW

because there will be MORE to us,

more OF us,

in the future.

Denying ourselves aliveness,

pleasure and satisfaction now,

because we’ll be something

HEALING THE WOUND OF NON-SUPPORT

We must receive support before we can ever give it Many of us were born and raised in homes where we did not receive the support we really needed in order to feel safe, seen, grounded, and valued. For whatever reasons, our parents and families and perhaps even our communities were unable to give us enough responsive attention for us to anchor a feeling of being empowered and supported into our Beings. Because we did not receive this support for our very Being, our essence, we came to distrust ourselves and those around us. We became unable to receive support, even when it was sincerely offered. We came to feel that we were a burden and that we didn’t deserve to have support or feel supported. We tried to make it through our lives by being totally self-sufficient. Since we couldn’t receive support, we reasoned, maybe we didn’t need it. We managed for quite some time in this way. But we found that we were unable to feel totally at ease with ourselves and ...

Living with Emotional intensity and remaining Anchored

As a Highly Sensitive Empath, I can easily over identify with another’s emotional state. Attuning to others is automatic for me. Yet I easily fall into others’ emotions, losing myself, losing my own emotional balance and losing perspective. It’s not comfortable nor sustainable. I’ve uncovered an intuitive and instinctive ability that lets me stay connected and present, highly attuned, yet not over-identified with, or engulfed by my own, or others’ emotional states. I’m able to be aware of and witness difficult or intense emotional states, without being overcome or unbalanced. I remain alert, yet relaxed. I don’t get activated into fight or flight. I’m able to ride these states without being thrown. I’d love to share this ability with you, and show you how to access it for yourself. If you could have access to a simple subtle practice that would moderate and eventually free you from emotional roller coaster-ing, yet allow you to have fully alive, emotionally connected, ...
