Just like a tree, in order for our branches to reach into the upper realms of the sky, we need to have a solid foundation through our roots. Growth happens in both directions and requires the added nurturance of soil, water and sunlight. Non-ordinary states of consciousness can bring us into the underground of our own unresolved patterns/trauma or take us soaring into other worlds. I strongly believe that it is important to integrate all the parts of the Self, from the roots to the highest branch, and beyond, in order to be balanced. Beautiful states of being such as kindness, compassion, peace, wholeness are achieved through the struggle or uncomfortable moments when we face self imposed limitations, past trauma, hurt, fear, and cultural conditioning to awaken to our most essential, original, authentic Self. Our life journey can then unfold with freedom to live in the flow from our core, the heart. My work is about providing a safe and supportive container for compassionate process.
