Oneness

When one of us is affected, we are all affected. We are all connected. We are one.

Recently I shared a post about the wild weather here in New Zealand and how when one of us is affected we are all affected.

But it’s not only New Zealand experiencing the turmoil, there is so much going on worldwide!!!

I don’t watch the news but I am aware of a few things going on, on our beautiful Mama Earth and my heart goes out to all of us including Mama Earth.

No matter how better or worse you have it, your feelings and emotions are valid, your grief, anger, sadness, joy, pleasure, happiness, it’s ALL valid.

We do not need to compare our experiences and dull our emotions because others may have it worse.

It’s in these times that we are stretched the most, when we are tested, when are pushed into deep transformation and growth.

It’s in these times that we come together as a community like never before. I’ve experienced it a number of times now, more so in the last few years, the community coming together in a way I’ve never experienced it before.

I often wonder why it takes such big events, often traumatic events to bring us together

And after a period of time many us appear to be sucked back into “normalcy”

Back into the busy, go go go, never ending to do list, work work work, into the chronic disconnection that has overwhelmed humanity.

And we lose the deep connection and support of the community a little more with each passing day.

But I believe there is another way, and I have seen many positive shifts happening for us in the last few years.

People doing the work, healing trauma, releasing limiting beliefs, stories and conditioning that keeps us small.

I have been blessed to facilitate some incredible spaces and to hold space for those ready to do this work.

It’s not an easy path, but it’s so deeply needed, and worth it as it’s this work that allows us to reconnect to ourselves and to one another in a whole new way. A much, much deeper and authentic way.

In the past few years the amount of small talk I experience has dramatically decreased and continues to do so.

Small talk was never something that resonated for me and I always found it draining. The life I live now has opened me up to deep and rich conversations and connections with those I come into contact with, especially in the workshops I offer.

When we come together in ceremony, it’s like the true you slowly and gently comes to the surface, the layers of ego and not self gently dissolve, allowing for vulnerability, courage and truth to come through.

We journey so deep, we may not be having a conversation as you journey into the depths of your being but we feel one another, we are on that journey together. There’s no separation between my pain and your pain, my pleasure and your pleasure.

When I place a hand on someone’s heart and I feel the truth of who they are and tears begin to roll down their face, tears are rolling down my face to.

Our hearts connect in such a unique way.

A way that once was so familiar.

But sadly has been lost for a very long time.

We are blessed to be in a time where that level of connection is becoming more and more available to us.

We are remembering who we are. We are being guided (and sometimes pushed) into our aligned selves, our aligned lives.

It’s about time.

It’s not an easy process, no.

But what’s on the other side of this healing journey is completely unimaginable levels of love, connection, joy and peace.

I know it. I feel it.

The deeper I continue to go on my own journey, the more able I am to trust the process, to love myself, to love another, to connect authentically without fear, to let go of judgement and embrace more and more compassion for myself and all.

The greater my awareness expands, allowing me to see what once was hidden, buried deep in the psyche of not only myself but many if not all of us.

I can see an incredibly bright future for all of us, I can feel it.

I know there will come a time when we don’t work for the dollar, we work for our hearts desire.

We don’t work ourselves to the bone, our work brings us ALIVE

Where we experience more passion, creativity, innovation, excitement and aliveness than ever before.

Where our work brings us into deeper connection with ourselves.

Deeper into connection with each other.

Where we support one another, cheer each other on and lift each other up.

Where we say “Goodbye” to competition and realise there is more than enough for everyone.

When we realise that when we say “no” or someone says no to us, it’s not a bad thing, it’s a redirection.

We know how to set and honour boundaries

To step into our power and experience true freedom.

Where we break free from the normalcy and build a whole new way of living and being.

Where we can experience deep connection is our everyday life.

This isn’t an overnight thing.. It’s going to take all of us showing up for ourselves, doing the inner work, healing our own trauma, generational trauma and collective trauma.

The more you take care of you - the more we are able to show up for our loved ones and our community.

It's not selfish to ensure you are taken care of.. it's absolutely VITAL.. especially in times like these.

When one of us is affected, we are ALL affected.

We are all connected.

This means not only do we feel the pain of the world through these collective traumas, “natural” disasters, wars, and all the other negative events happening worldwide…

But we also feel the GOOD, when you heal a wound, release a belief, step into your power

There is a collective shift, you are bringing more light, healing, courage, vulnerability, safety and transformation to ALL of humanity.

Have you ever experienced when you make a positive shift in your life and others take notice and either get really curious and interested in what’s changed for you..

Or you notice others making shifts in their lives because they were inspired by your shift or mustered up the courage by witnessing your courageous act?

Or maybe it’s the other way around.. Has someone else done something courageous, shifted something and inspired a shift in your life?

Have you noticed when you smile at someone, it’s almost impossible for them not to smile back? Or vice versa?

Have you ever noticed how infectious laughter is?

And how healing a good belly laugh is? How it shifts everything?

Have you ever listened to someone’s story, what they’ve gone through, and it’s brought you to tears, glee, excitement, laughter, it’s like you’re there with them, feeling what they felt, whether its sadness, rage, hysterical laughter, love, passion, excitement, joy..

We feel one another.

When we open up and share vulnerably, our hearts soften, and we are able to feel, connect, empathise, love, have deeper compassion..

Vulnerability is fucking courageous.

Some may think it’s weak.

But it’s become one of the hardest things for most us.

It takes courage to be vulnerable, to express yourself, to let others in, to let yourself be seen and heard.

It takes courage.

The thing is..

Many of us are riddled with trauma, limiting beliefs and stories, and conditioning that keeps us stuck, small and disconnected.

But we are now in a time where more and more of us have had enough, we know there’s more to life and it’s time to do the work.

It’s time to come together and rise together.

it’s time.

I’ll remind you..

This is NOT an easy path.

But fuck.. it’s absolutely fucking worth it.

I have to remind myself of this daily, because when you’re on this path, you meet many layers

Like an onion, some layers are thin and more easily broken through,

Others are THICK and it takes gentleness, slowness, patience, compassion and a strength you didn’t know you had (but you do!)

It’s important to have support on this journey.

I denied myself community, mentors, support, friendships for far too long out of fear, feelings of unworthiness, resentment, beliefs, conditioning and unresolved trauma.

It kept me separate, disconnected and in a false sense of safety

Like “I’m better off alone”, “I have to do everything myself”. “I can’t trust others to show up for me”, “People hurt me”, “Girls are bitches”, “Girls don’t like me”, “Boys only want one thing”, “I’ll never be good enough”, “I’m weird, no one will like me”, “I can’t be myself”, “I hate myself”

All this and more was playing in my head for many years from a young age. I had so much fear of getting hurt, saying the wrong thing, not belonging.

The healing journey, the inner work, CHANGED EVERYTHING!!!

And it will for you to.

And with change, comes feeling deep emotions,

It comes with a lot of grief as you shed the layers of who you thought you were and rebirth into the you, you truly are and have always been.

This is a journey of remembering.

You’ve got this my friend.

We truly are in this together.

We are having our own unique experience here on earth but at the core of it all, we are one.

Your pain is my pain, your pleasure is my pleasure.

When we heal, we rise, we rise together.

Oneness.

If you’re in need of support as you navigate your healing/awakening journey, please reach out.

You do NOT have to do this alone, in fact I believe it’s impossible to do this alone.

We are tribal beings, we are wired connection, we are here to help each other.

Recently I have moved through some tremendous shifts and have been divinely guided to a new path on my journey of supporting others.

I began offering yoga classes 3 years ago in my pregnancy. This led to my family and I travelling all over New Zealand for 2 years offering trauma informed breathwork workshops to support deep healing, incredible timing with the collective experience we had.

I am now moving towards less travel and more 1:1 work where we can really dive deeper together over a longer period of time

This is where lasting change occurs. When you stay consistent on your journey and have the regular, ongoing support that’s required to move through a lot of these thick layers.

The thing is, we can do a workshop and feel amazing after, maybe even for a few days or a week

And then all of a sudden we find ourselves back in the same boat and think, oh it must not of worked.

No. This journey is continuous,

There’s no magic pill.

It takes work, consistency and patience.

Having ongoing support is where you will experience the lasting change you’re looking for,

As well as deep healing, personal transformation and self discovery.

It’s where you will experience deep connection, deep remembering and align with who you truly are and the life you were destined to lead.

Don’t get me wrong. Workshops are INCREDIBLE and I love them, they have their place.

This is a message to remind you, it takes more than just one workshop,

And it takes a village.

If you feel called to work together, learn more here

If you don’t resonate with me or my story, find someone you do resonate with.

You do NOT have to do this alone.

We are all in this together.
