Over the wkd I discovered I’d been wildly misrepresented by someone who I once considered a friend.

I’ve learnt this a few times before, you cannot change someone else’s view of you if they don’t allow you to be heard. You have to let them misunderstand and misrepresent you.

You are allowed to be mad though.

I got into bed and I allowed my body to shake, to grieve. To feel the sadness under the anger.

In the aftermath of a devastating break up all I needed from most friends was a little empathy, not long conversations just softness. A hug, an understanding face, a “hi, I can see you’re in pain”.

I’m realising that kind of simple grace is an advanced attunement for some. Especially if it conflicts with an agenda of their own that requires you be the villain so they can feel ok.

I suppose the learning for me here is you have to let people live their own story of you
AND you can simultaneously honour the pain that causes you by meeting it in your body. Offering your own body the kindness you so craved from that friend and the freedom to process in weird and wild ways.

Ever the student in this life school.

Recently I was asked “how do you regulate yourself when something intense is happening?”

my immediate and instinctual answer was

“I don’t!”

For those of us that grew up being told a good girl means being polite and calm it’s a sticky one.

Lately. I’ve been trying to feel the awakened insecurities deeply even if it means temporarily feeling out of control. Being messy.

It’s certainly not comfortable and yet I continuously get the experience that the only way out or (back to regulation) is through. While I agree that nervous system regulation and containment is important and often necessary depending on the social circumstances, it can also be a form of trying to control or suppress a big feeling which in my experience leads to more serious issues. Namely you end up storing it until someone else awakens it in you and then it’s often very misguided in its focus. And potentially hurts people who love you.

Regulation is important but don’t rush there first, work on expanding your capacity to allow the mess. Ideally a little at a time, when a mild frustration emerges hang out with it for a bit, pull some faces, stamp those feet if you like. Work on feeling safe within yourself even when you don’t have control. Hold your own body, turn your face to the sky, sense that you can go through it. You can and you will.

Say the thing, show up even when you’re not ready, feel the feeling all the way through to your bones.

ALL IN

Without commitment you will be relating to the world and others with the energy of “what can I get from this?”

Devotion, choosing, cherishing life flips the perspective to “this is an opportunity to experience love”. And it’s up to me!

The inability to go all in is hard to witness, it speaks to old stories of not enoughness. It speaks to deep beliefs of not being worthy of love. It keeps you playing small and it can cause chaos for others involved.

Here’s the thing though, we repattern that story in every small victory. Show up to the event you can’t be bothered to, devote time to learning something new, give your friends your undivided attention when they’re sharing something, finish a task. Stay consistent.

I find it comes up when I’m attempting to surf, hesitation either misses the wave or causes a tumble. That’s why it’s a great practice ground.
Free movement is another place that reveals for many people.

Reflection ~ when did you hold back and miss out on an opportunity for depth, love, beauty?

Good news ~ we’re never done, this life school keeps holding its hand out to you again and again. You can get the next wave.

Bravely we go. All in. 🤍

This practice, yin yoga, has been my main ally of late. And for a very long time actually.

When there’s turbulence inside (and certainly when there’s global chaos), I find it difficult to sit for meditation and even tea. In these times I find those practices still very heady. Those practices are helpful for sitting with your thoughts until they run their course.

Yin yoga invites you to enter the places where tenderness lives in your tissues. It asks you to stay awhile with discomfort. It asks you to attend directly to your frayed nervous system, not by fixing but by allowing.

It reminds me safety is something I create, and in doing so it quietly, patiently builds resilience.

Thank goodness for these homecoming practices.

Not all of us are healing old wounds,
but we are still in process all ways. Growing through the desire for belonging, presence, depth, shared experience.

I’ve been diving into the literature on ruptures and break ups and although there’s truth for some in relationships activating old wounds, it hasn’t been quite landing right for me.

I have always known my privilege in having unconditional love and support from my caregivers.

There’s definitely feelings of inadequacy and moments my self-esteem has been flatlining lately but it feels right on track for the present pain, not an old one. I long to be loved, deeply, to be in sacred connection, to share experiences (the mess and the magic). It feels like the most natural longing in my nature. When that is withdrawn it feels like the most natural source of pain, it hurts. Here and now, not from childhood, now.

Of course I can experience wholeness and love solo, I have - deeply. And also desire the amplified version of partnership that is so alive because it’s not within my control. Me dissolves to become We. It’s a destruction of sorts, in the best possible way.

Sharing from the richest compost there is, the soil of heartbreak, as I know many others are also in it right now. Don’t rush your pain, it’s actually gold when you realise it speaks of how much you wanted to give and long to have reciprocated. It speaks so purely of human need. Belonging. Innocent, current, true.

Anger ~ how do you work with it?

Recently I got mad, a few times. I could tell it was a protective part to the little girl who was really very sad.
My adult had just reason to be mad and here’s the thing ~ I let her, I expressed her (without aggression), I burned with it. I stomped around a bit. For about 3 minutes at a time. I’m proud of one moment in particular where I actually got down on my knees in front of my partner and I said “I’m determined not to leave this conversation until we get back to kindness “.
Humble pie. Far out, I had to get off my high horse. I’m deeply grateful I did. Madness dissolved, instantly. Sadness and love entered the building.

If the world has been making you angry lately, fair, feel it deeply for a few minutes - if you can act in someway to help do, if you can’t this is the most sacred ground. Name it, do not shame it, use your body to channel it, let it breathe, anger you have every right to show up
THEN stay determined to see it all the way through to what it is - grief. For the disconnect, the loss, the hurt, the rupture.
Stay with it until kindness enters the room.

Then we attend to the sadness, very gently. That’s a more tender project.

It takes a village ~ relating.

My partner and I met through friends who knew each of us really well and felt a strong sense of bringing us to meet. Even then we both needed coaching. Even then we literally needed our friend to help with the text replies. It made my head swirl at how anyone ends up dating! Even when two people come highly recommended to each other there’s still doubts and protective mechanisms to get through.

I’ve also needed the sisterhood throughout, and especially in moments of rupture which I want to repair. sometimes it feels like I’m reporting his worst behaviour to my women but they know how to hold the vision of his best self with me. And maybe, more importantly, they know my best self and want it to thrive within intimacy and partnership.

I’ve really leaned on the wise women in my life lately to guide me in moments when my little self feels so vulnerable. I know he’s needed his brothers too.

Just dropping this here as a follow up to a Previous post on how challenging romantic relationships are if we’re really committed to growth. It takes a village. I’m eternally grateful for mine and I also get to be part of the village of support that is a yoga studio. The modern day refuge. A place for many to come and be with all the turbulence rather than projecting it onto the closest person in their life.

This really is the practice ground ~ human relating, in all its forms. Sending grace to our brave hearts as we navigate it imperfectly. 🤍

If you want an easy life, stay single.

Over the wkd I shared a picture of my partner and I celebrating 1 year together. 🫶🏼

1 year of testing each other, 1 year of learning each other ~ the ways we thrive and the ways we withdraw or shutdown. An adventure absolutely, a walk in the park absolutely not.

A simple picture of a loved up couple gets more likes than any other content I’ve ever shared which I understand ~ we all love love. Beyond that quick sweet moment is all the other ones where we are stressed or exhausted or confused and there’s someone opposite us that could be held responsible for our discomfort.

On my own I can never blame anyone else for my moods and I have way more control over my time and energy. It’s easier, it just is.

At some point though we bravely enter the arena again and find out our next contract, our next piece to grow through. If at all possible we look to others for mentorship; therapists, supportive friends, I even learn here from beautiful teachers sharing wisdom freely like and thank you!!

I still believe it’s deeply worthwhile to relate romantically (and honest friendships are gold too), but it does require we continue to develop ourselves and that takes effort. The shift from me to we is huge! And not innate to being coupled, it’s a continuous verb.

Reporting from the field to remind you that behind every sweet snapshot is a whole process and kaleidoscope of feelings. Wishing us all the best as we endeavour to find union in all its forms. 🤍
