The willingness to witness others without judgment as they change - even if that change is not preferable or convenient to you - is the willingness to love.

To do so is to become a mirror, a quiet reflection that allows the other to see where and how they are caught.

Compassion means choosing presence over convenience. And sometimes, being a human being requires us to show up for others even when it’s uncomfortable, inconvenient, or downright hard.

And it IS hard, because we all have wounds, complicated histories, and present moment circumstances that shape our capacity. None of this is easy, or linear.

Regardless, when someone is going through hell, yes, it may feel heavy to hold space, but imagine the weight on the one actually living it, feeling utterly separate, isolated inside their predicament.

When you push against somebody, when you have even the subtlest model in your head that they should be different than they are, at an unconscious level it awakens in them a pushing back, a resistance, a subtle paranoia, or worse, a crushing sense of shame.

More from Baba Ram Dass:
"To be a safe space for another human being means you don't have an agenda, but at the same time you do not engage in upholding their victimhood or entitlement. To care for the other, I must see the other as they are and not as I would like them to be.

In order to do this, I must also see myself as I am: I must see what I'm doing and whether what I'm doing helps or hinders the growth of the other. We show lack of trust by trying to dominate and force the other into a mold, or by requiring guarantees as to their outcome. This trust is most difficult to have with the others we’re most emotionally connected to because trusting the other, is to let go; it includes an element of risk and a leap into the unknown, both of which take courage.”

In heartfelt gratitude for the teachings of Ram Dass that provide me with so much nourishment and resource.

One of my meditation students reached out to me this week with a question about dealing with anger and other intense emotions.

I've been experiencing a lot of my own very intense emotions lately, so I made a video addressing this very human topic through the lens of my own current life challenges. (The full video is in my platform Thrive School - link in bio)

When you join the Human Being Community you will be able to submit your questions and challanges to both Fluke and I, and we will address them in video recordings shared in the group for everyone to benefit from.

(You can still watch everything for free right now, just sign up to Thrive School with your email address to watch all the replay videos. Link in bio.)

We look forward to seeing you for the 2nd free session of The Human Being Practice Lab on Saturday 23rd at 3pm (Bangkok).

“We will be judged on how well we loved. That’s it. That’s all that matters.” ~ Toni Morrison

The answer is NOT one we can outsource to governments, leaders, or even the “collective” as an abstract concept. It’s an inner discipline, a kind of spiritual weightlifting.

The work is to build the capacity, right here in our own nervous systems, to stay present, open, and curious when every fibre of the ego wants to armour up and defend. And in truth, lately I feel I am failing at this.

I am in another underworld descent, a dark night of the soul. Old identity layers are writhing around in the death throes, fighting to remain relevant. It's a struggle to remain the witnessing presence of all this. Some of my relationships have suffered.

The micro reflects the macro.

Almost everyone I know feels overwhelmed and under capacity right now. But that capacity doesn’t arrive through wishful thinking.

It’s forged in the small, unglamorous moments when we notice the spike of defensiveness in a conversation with someone, or the urge to retaliate when someone misrepresents or berates us, and we choose - just for that breath - to stay.

And to wonder "what's it like to be you right now?" To ask a genuine question instead of delivering a verdict. To remember that the person in front of us is as shaped by their wounds and conditioning as we are by ours.

When enough of us practice this, the hopelessness shifts. We're not going to be perfect at it, we will mess up, often.

After all, who is modelling skilful repair to us? Certainly not our leaders. And probably not the generation who came before us.

The enormous global chasms will begin to close through countless micro-bridges of repair, built in kitchens, over text messages, in awkward living room conversations.

So the answer is: become relentless in your practice of repair at the smallest scales. Let your intimate life be the training ground for the world you wish existed.

Hopelessness can’t survive long when you are busy building bridges.

I hope you'll join and I for the next free session of The Human Being Community on August 23rd. This is the kind of work we're doing together. God knows I need to practice just as much as anyone.

Social media can feel like an exhausting space to inhabit.

And it's reflective of the level of collective consciousness on this planet.

When listening feels hard, when your claws are out and you’re ready to pounce instead of reflect, ask yourself:

What do I need to return to presence?
What walls inside need softening?
What am I defending or protecting that actually needs loving?
How might I let more love in here, in the place I want to enact hurt instead of understanding?

I don't always find this easy. But giving in to the baser instincts of the ego is contributing to an ugliness pervading the world.

And each side is in possession of some piece of the truth, so you want to encourage both sides to bring their map-fragments to the table, so that you can incorporate all of their information into your larger world model.

That won't happen if you're secretly allied with one side, and helping it beat up on the other. Having empathy for both sides will help you burn less mental energy.

Step into the mindset of each of the sides. Get in touch with what each side wants. Feel into what it's like to hold that value, and speak from that point of view.

(Ask "what's one important thing that the other side doesn't understand?")

The idea is to connect with what-it's-like-to-be-the-version-of-yourself-who-really-wants-to-go-running (or whatever), and listen to the authentic sentences from each perspective. You may just learn something about yourself.

There are 5 or 6 more steps to this process, but even spending time with this first step can bring some internal cohesion to your system.

If you *would* like to explore this process more deeply to really dissolve these internal conflicts, get in touch for a free 30 minute discovery call. Soon, my practice will be closing to new clients for a while.

You become "attractive" and magnetic when you embody the liberating recognition and insight that life is impermanent and uncontrollable.

At first, that truth can feel unsettling. But as practice deepens, it begins to bring a freedom unlike anything else — the kind that comes from no longer clawing at reality in a misguided attempt to make it conform to your will.

From that awareness, freedom, awe and curiosity naturally arise, and with them, a different way of being in the world. That's magnetic A.F peeps.

Come join and I this Saturday in the first free practice lab session of The Human Being Community. Whatsapp QR code on the last slide

Let yourself BE love, and be loved.

Loved by your wisest, kindest, highest self. Loved by Life. Loved by the generosity of flowers and the melody of birdsong.

We heal our deep wounds by becoming our own source of nurturing energy.

In truth, I did not find this to be an easy habit to create - but I keep at it - for what else is there to do?

It’s the weekend AGAIN. And weekends can be hard for me. The solitude can get deafening. I read a lot of essays.

And these pernicious little tropes tend to pop up in the stuff I read;

“Love comes when you least expect it.” “You have to love yourself first.” “When the timing is ripe, it will happen.”

I call bu****it on these neat little platitudes. I sense they are meant to anesthetize people from what is actually a very messy, uneven mystery.

Love is not a meritocracy. It never was. People don’t “earn” partnership through worthiness or spiritual progress. The universe is not a vending machine where you insert enough healing tokens and get a relationship in return.

Love doesn’t always reward effort and it doesn’t always correspond to self-awareness, or readiness. Nor does it seem to reward only virtue either. Some of the most unconscious people I know are partnered. Avoidant, dishonest, or emotionally stunted people somehow have lasting relationships.

And some of the deepest, most self-aware, beautifully loving people I know do not find love.

That dissonance can be hard to metabolize - especially for people who’ve faced their shadows, burned through illusion, opened, surrendered, and opened again.

I’ve chosen integrity when loneliness begged me to settle. I've said no to lovers who could’ve soothed the surface but couldn’t meet the depth. And still, there’s no arrival.

Love (and when I say love, I really mean relationship) - is distributed unevenly.

So I question myself. Am I blocking it? I know the power of belief - perhaps my doubt has become the gatekeeper?

Perhaps it’s simply because this kind of love is rare, and the world doesn’t offer many templates for it. Mostly, I see a lot of painful compromise. Two people surviving each other, or numbing beside each other. Occasionally posting curated couple shots but missing each other’s bids for connection.

Some of us walk the initiatory path of longing, for a long ass time. It can feel like failure. Of course, it is not.

In some strange and feral way, it is holy. And I don’t mean “holy” in the way people say it to comfort themselves. I mean in the sense that it is a deep mystery.

This longing refuses to be consoled by tropes, and is no less sacred for it.

I do not buy the notion that Love is a reward you get for passing the test of self-worth. It visits some and not others, it will not be corralled.

I often wonder, what is this ache turning me into? What kind of love do I need to become when there’s no one here to receive it? (I whisper “little one, there’s always someone to receive it in the altar of your heart).

But even if it doesn't arrive in the form I long for, and even if I feel totally exposed as I write this, I’m committed to cultivating a fierce, lucid, heartbroken, honest, unspiritualized truth.

And that’s a rare form of love in itself.

The exact place where the ache becomes wisdom.

About Aly Hazeltree

My name is Aly Hazeltree, I am a Meditation Teacher, Holistic Healing Practitioner, Writer and Yogi from London. I have enjoyed living in and co-creating ‘intentional communities’ in S.E Asia for the last few years, and am now based mostly in Koh Phangan, Thailand, while traveling and teaching meditation retreats around the world the rest of the year.

I am a Reiki Master, EFT Level 3 Practitioner and 3 Principles Change Catalyst (also known as the Inside out Understanding). Additionally I facilitate Authentic Relating Games and empathic listening events to share my passion for authentic, rich and compassionate communication.

I began my meditation practice around 13 years ago, initially in the ‘Insight’ Buddhist tradition, and for the last 5 years have been teaching a diverse range of meditation techniques and practices; from mindfulness techniques aimed at re-wiring your neural pathways, in order to train the brain out of it's hard-wired 'negativity bias', to ‘Inner Walk’ walking meditation, Dhamma talks and self-compassion workshops.

I offer one-on-one coaching sessions in person and on Skype to support people experiencing challenges, obstacles or life-changes.
