When the Whole World Breathes
These past few months, I’ve been moving into a pseudo monastic lifestyle in some ways- seeking quiet and uninterrupted spaces with my own thoughts and breath. There’s been a need for my own settling and deepening and deep listening.
I’ve missed being in touch with you all though through this respite. But during this time, sharing wisdom or perspective felt inauthentic or disingenuous- as I needed my own time to digest my thoughts before sharing anything external with you- like an incubation process.
As you know, I write and share often of cycles and seasons, and so I suppose in this quiet stillness, I’ve been in my own pause of my breath- or what some would call the twilight hour just before dawn.
While I’m still in somewhat of an early germination/pre-“dawning of the light” mode- I am glad to reach out again now and celebrate our aligned path of self discovery and healing.
Some of the directional awareness that has been percolating for me lately is that distraction for all of us, from our phones and stimuli, is at an all time high these days- I trust you can feel it/see it...
But nothing will come from more of our mental processing/thinking or trying to figure it out- true wisdom comes from “in and through the body”.
As we attune ourselves deep within, we can help attune the world around us to be a place that is sustaining and generative and long-lasting- a place we all recognize as our peace and strive for.
Everything begins within us and around us through our own cohered field and breath that is aligned. But this takes work- especially given the pull on our attention from so many things and technologies these days that continue to move us away from ourselves, our knowing, our bodies.
It takes regular consistent attention to focus and to build bridges of awareness to our own inner world experience to align with the outer world we seek- one of balance and attunement and joy.
Deepening our inner embodiment helps align us with our intuition and our true directionality and peace- which brings the world into coherence and peace. I believe this inner and outer attunement is possible for all of us.
We all have the ability to effect change outside ourselves from this inside out approach- and remember we are the best parts of ourselves we are waiting for and humanity will rise to the occasion from within.
But how do we find these places of inner alignment more often? How do we open our full breath to find our center and bring greater compassion to ourselves and others? We breathe in the body with presence, repeat and begin again.
Life is a long and winding path and sometimes we can all fall prey to getting caught in the web of suffering. But when we rise up, we must begin again- find support, come into places that align our energies, and breathe deeper into the very best parts of ourselves.
Where there is breath, there is you. And where there is you, there is me. And where we are we- we can open and blossom and remember who we are together in the unified cohered field of blossoming.
I’m so very honored to be part of your support team on this path of self-discovery and healing and I’m glad to be walking on this path with you as well.
May your summer be off to a good start! I hope to see you at one of the upcoming offerings coming up. Let’s keep the breath opening for us all- and the deepened pathways continuing.
Sending light and love on this day! -Tania
