You have a relationship with time you know.

Its how you RELATE TO IT. Time itself doesn’t exactly change but we all have a different experience of it & relate to it differently.

A relationship.

This is: What you think about it, your perception of it, what calendar you go by, how you experience it.

It may be in relation to what labels you use, your age, what is currently happening in your life, your work even, the past, the present, the future.

Time may feel thin or perhaps vast.

Now the cool thing that I have learned IS:
We can work on our perception & relationship with time.

In the beginning this started for me with reading the “Power of Now” by Ekhart Tolle & following Maramataka Maori on FB.

This was when the doorway to the present moment cracked open for me.

One of Sacred Timing & Cyclical Timing.

I didn’t actually know it for some time. I was unable to see or feel any change in the beginning.

But you know how a seed grows - In the dark, downwards first - without any outward signs.

The seed of awakening me to the nature of sacred time & how I experienced it slowly began to take root & grow.

Even at its very most simplest - That there was in fact, a different way!

This was learning about the present moment, how to actually “be here now” , what that even meant & how to get my body to a state of calm to actually be able to experience it.

Or really in the beginning, bringing attention to the gap. The lack there of.

It also called me to learn about a different “calendar” so to speak - One guided by the sun, moon, seasons - All cycles in fact.

Within & without.

Through syncing with the “timing” or cycles within nature, we begin to or further recognise our innate connections with nature.

Our Sacred Nature.

Through learning about & connecting into the present moment - we experience a sense of liberation & expansion.

In short.

Anyway there is an expanse waiting for you my friend.

Be curious.

Perhaps you already have been? Would LOVE to hear about it! 🫶🏼✨

Walked up the local maunga with my Dad early this morning.

He turned 70 this year🤩 I am so grateful we have the opportunity to do this together!

We are going to do the Tongoriro Crossing together next Feb😍

This has actually been YEARS in the making.

I remember he offered one time maybe 10years ago - But the reality was back then, I just didn’t have capacity to plan & do something like that.

I was well n truly treading water at that time.

Now; all these years later - We get to plan to do it together 🤩😍

It is truely so great.

I am so grateful.

One key shift in my journey has been no longer chasing sleep.

I used to CHASE sleep. I actually often felt like I didn't want to be awake😞

Sleep was an escape I suppose.
The days were heavy from the get go & mostly I didn't want to start them.

As you know - I am early to rise now. Not always, but honestly mostly.

Sometimes I don't feel like it, but mostly when I don't I actually miss the time & what it holds for me.

Now the allure of sleep just doesn't hold what it once did.

Yes I get tired lol

The reality is: I get tired no matter how much sleep I have - Husband knows this lol

So why not just get up early n do my thang.

We can redefine our meaning around the time before dawn you know.

Perhaps into the unmanifest.
A time of creation.

"The lips of wisdom are closed, except to the ears of Understanding"
- THE KYBALLION

In the quiet hours of the morning there is much to learn if you rise, are open & listen to the wisdom that life has to share.

I have decided to read this book again - As I will do my sharing in relation to it.

Some of what I have learnt & what is in the book x

Cultivating a relationship with nature in many ways can be as simple as observing the movement of the sun on the horizon from Solstice to solstice.

Bringing this into your realm of awareness also further awakens you to:
🌿Sacred timing
🌿Your sense of presence & connection with yourself
🌿The wisdom of nature
🌿The ever changing naturw of life
🌿The life giving beauty of life! xx

O this is so good🤍

If I don’t feel safe inside, it makes sense that I’m going to exist in a state of defensiveness. Meaning, I don’t want anything to get close to the part that doesn’t feel safe.

It doesn’t always look like being defensive in conversation. It can look like avoidance of anything that might see the whole me — through shutting down, freezing, being critical of others, being critical of myself, anger, dissociation, or being pollyanna positive.

It can be more subtle, too - being uncomfortable with other people’s open displays of emotion, changing the topic of conversation when it asks you to be vulnerable, trying to “analyze” or fix when feeling deeply (you or them), judging those who are different, or just trying to make other people “better” instead of letting them be where they are.

It can look like procrastination, perfectionism, people-pleasing, hyper-intellectualizing, over-functioning - there are many, many ways we have learned to protect the parts of us that don’t feel safe inside. We (often unconsciously) look for the ways that we might be “found out” so we can avoid them.

We stay in relationships and environments that maintain this status quo. It’s why we chase and seek out relationships with emotionally unavailable people - we’re not used to being seen.

And if we’ve been doing this for a long time, we often have NO IDEA there are other ways to exist.

But when we learn how to get in touch with the parts that feel unsafe, the parts that we’ve been defending, and learn how to meet, love, and accept them - something beautiful happens.

We no longer need to be constantly on the lookout for threats or to change ourselves to be accepted. Instead, it becomes more natural to look for the good in others. To walk toward connection, to honor our differences, and to sit with ourselves and others in discomfort.

To remember that when others are avoiding or reacting, it’s because they don’t feel safe inside.

It all starts with meeting and accepting you.
