from the nectar of my heart...

I missed a couple days of training this past weekend. From what I hear it was rather emotionally intense. Which I think is great. All the shit we try so hard to bury is being pushed up to the surface. The tide pools are filling with emotional sincerity. It's never easy to open yourself up to others. I often tell my clients that when emotions surface.... embrace it. We heal ourselves when we can honor that sacred space inside us. Our body's intelligence is amazing. Trauma that has happened years ago becomes imprinted in cellular memory and is stored within us. When it is time to let go our bodies have a way of releasing that cellular memory and give us the gift of freedom from pain.
I am sorry I missed the witness of such releases this weekend. It would have been an honor to share that with my fellow teachers in training.
I am sure I will be privy to such releases soon enough as I embark on the retreat that D'ana has in store for us. My goal at this retreat is to help facilitate others through the "unwinding and emotional surfacing". I am always so honored when I see someone have a breakthrough within themselves. Human beings carry a lot of baggage through the years. There comes a time when we have to throw out the shit we don't need anymore and make room for new experiences and all that comes with it.
I have lit a flame of unconditional love for all my fellow T.I.T's I will keep this flame burning for you  for as long as it takes for you to battle those inner demons.
Here is a little inspiration from one of my favorite writer's. I hope it's wisdom will carry you through all the great challenges life has in store for you...

 On Self Knowledge

-Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

Your hearts know in silence the secrets of the days and the nights.

But your ears thirst for the sound of your heart's knowledge.

You would know in words that which you have always known in thought.

You would touch with your fingers the naked body of your dreams.

And it is well you should.

The hidden well-spring of your soul must needs rise and run murmuring to the sea;

And the treasure of your infinite depths would be revealed to your eyes.

But let there be no scales to weigh your unknown treasure;

And seek not the depths of your knowledge with staff or sounding line.

For self is a sea boundless and measureless.

Say not, "I have found the truth," but rather, "I have found a truth."

Say not, "I have found the path of the soul." Say rather, "I have met the soul walking upon my path."

For the soul walks upon all paths.

The soul walks not upon a line, neither does it grow like a reed.

The soul unfolds itself like a lotus of countless petals.
