I am lucky enough to know sisterhood in Melbourne, Auckland, Los Angeles, Ibiza, and London — support around the world from women. And I am fortunate enough to have had the choice and the resources to remove myself from any misogyny, oppression, or exploitation that my body and mind were subjected to in younger years and past relationships. There may be nothing more sacred than the bonds that form between women who completely accept one another for who they are; and simultaneously encourage each other’s evolution through that gentle whisper, that reminds us of the power we hold in being female, and to step into it boldly and completely.

My beloved sister left today after visiting me for a month. I miss her so much and the emotions she stirs in me are so deep, and increasingly beautiful as we continue to grow into what is starting to feel like true sisterhood.
I have been shifting my focus for the past month and a half or so, to be living as best I can IN REALITY, which has meant mostly disengagement from Instagram, other than keeping in touch with a few people who are dear to me through this platform.
I thought today how my mind can trick itself into thinking that by turning IG off, I have been disengaging. Yet, I feel more engaged in my life than ever before. I am quietly educating myself both in the most relevant worldly and spiritual issues — slowly as to best digest — and I am metabolising that information, transforming in many ways that I can truly feel — most notably at my heart centre.
My heart has never felt more like it is bursting, ripped open constantly, and at the same time so held and supported in accepting my own sensitivity, and feeling it for what it is. I have never somatically known what processing emotions through the heart space means until these last few months, and in just becoming familiar with that reality I am feeling the intensity that can be sad, blissful, expansive, light, or heavy. I am definitely in love and alive. Fully engaged.
Hope everyone out there is staying with themselves, alive and engaged also.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

“The one who lives inside you reveals herself in so many ways. She dances as the subtle energy that gathers in your body when you close your eyes. She is there as the feeling of love or softness that sneaks in when you relax tense muscles, as the pressure in your forehead, and as the awareness of Awareness. She comes as the peaceful feeling in inner quiet, as the insight into your own magnificence, as the highest thought you are capable of holding about yourself. Even when your energy feels tense, ragged, opaque, or painful, even when thoughts and emotions whirl like dust devils through your inner space or when dullness lies like sludge in your heart, she is there at the bottom of your agitation and behind the feelings, memories, and sensations. She is in every moment of your meditation; she is your inner friend, your lover, and your Self.” -Sally Kempton✨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The sun is shining more consistently again and I am awakening to that warmth, it seems to be melting some kind of protective shell I have placed around myself the last several weeks..months? Longer? Starting to feel meaning emerging from these trying times, and it’s the acceptance, not getting to the other side that feels profound. And also accepting that may only last for this week, perhaps it’s just today’s revelation.🌞⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

“To tend to the moment is to attend to eternity. To attend to the part is to attend to the whole. To attend to reality is to live constructively.” -Pirke Avot✨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I keep remembering this quote anytime changes feel too big. It brings me back to the moment and makes me more receptive to joy, as I realise everything going on right now is still just a smaller version of the Big reality, a microscopic version of the grander Awareness. ❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

There has been a lot bubbling under the surface that’s been brought to boil in light of this utterly unique time. Stuff pouring onto the pages. Insights from a friend about the spiraling, non-linear nature of life. Continual surrender. At times completely terrified of the gut-wrenching power of the creative force, at other times those grippings in my solar plexus dissolve into blissful, peaceful waves that are all part of shakti’s same oceanic continuum. A visceral knowing that I have more than enough capacity to contain it all.✨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

~ Coalescing connection to others & connection to Self ~ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Making the effort to reach out to family, to ask my partner how he is doing, to catch up with friends overseas, to say hi to a neighbour looking out her window, to share time-honoured techniques that can help someone’s busy mind, are all ways to enhance CONNECTION. The same connection we cultivate with others, we cultivate within by practicing turning in to the Self. Both kinds of connection support us and provide sustenance, and both are easy to ignore when life gets stressful. But when we make a balanced effort to REACH OUT and to REACH IN, we find wholeness. We experience deeper meaning to life. We open our hearts to love. Thankful today for everyone who is in my life even if only in glimpses through this time, and thankful for wisdom passed down so I may experience (even if only in glimpses) the connection to Self that is always there waiting to connect with me. ❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The true practice of meditation is to sit as if you were drinking water when you are thirsty. -Shunryu Suzuki ✨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Meditation in these times has been some of the most interesting. Not because it has been blissful, but for f sake if there’s one thing that should be bringing you joy right now it should be your practice. Practice creativity. Practice letting your mind wander to places it wouldn’t normally and be curious. Let go of the prescription and the routine of it all. What comes up could lead you to places you never would have found if this whole thing never happened.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

To be in isolation with this one. We are such different people whose differences eternally balance each other, and we are bound by love and devotion for the same - each other’s highest wellbeing, growth, and peace. When the days don’t yield the highest, we forgive and wrap each other up tight. We’re great at moving rooms so the other can use the space for awhile, and at sitting in silence. He let me cut his hair which was the perfect activity for my aimlessly racing mind to do in that moment. I make him coffee in the morning. Thank god we both appreciate routine and thank god we both appreciate a day a week to let it go. I love you . ❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
