I woke up the other morning after this dream and r

I woke up the other morning after this dream and realized that we are literally in a dance battle for LOVE right now on this beautiful planet so full of suffering. When we give in to despair, fear or hatred and let those energies take us over completely, everyone loses (especially us!). When we let all these energies move THROUGH us, or better yet, shake them through by dancing, LOVE wins. Which side are you on right now?

🌌It might go against everything you have been f

🌌It might go against everything you have been fighting for. To ‘keep it all together’, to ‘keep calm and carry on’, to try and muster the energy to keep pushing when everything in your body is wanting to fall apart.⁠
⁠
💔And what would happen if you had the support around you to be able to give in to that feeling?⁠
⁠
Often, the FEAR of the feeling is more overwhelming than the feeling itself. ⁠
⁠
And often, there is actually deep peace at the very core of the feelings you most fear - inside the darkness you may have been avoiding. ⁠
⁠
I know it can be terrifying. That is why we do this work TOGETHER in community. ⁠
No one finds it easy, at first, to turn towards their grief. ⁠
⁠
We are not taught how to do it, and society tells us to isolate ourselves until we can put on a happy face. But there is no healing in isolation. We heal in relationship with each other. ⁠
⁠
💧When you let even one tear fall, and be witnessed in loving community, it changes everything. ⁠
It shifts the darkness from being a terrible monster into a loving, supportive presence, there to greet you with open arms.⁠
⁠
Everyone can do this. You just need the right support. ⁠
⁠
👉Join us on January 29th, 5-7pm on zoom for a FREE Meet and Greet to learn more about our community! Can’t wait to see you there. ⁠
