Wrapping up this module was a bittersweet experience. Most of us in this cohort have been together for a cumulative 30 days, spaced out over the past year. After this module, the cohort disperses, to continue on to their separate Advanced level trainings.
The special group of souls in this cohort proved the power this practice contains - the power WE contain - when relationship and attunement are at the heart of the work. The weight of holding each other’s pain is much less so when we all agree to hold it together. The joy is miles deeper when we share it.
In our Closing Circle, someone acknowledged that us coming together in that room is proof that SO many people are dedicating time and resources to creating safe, healing spaces for the collective earth. What a beautiful reminder, that amidst the overwhelming pain and injustice surrounding us, there are people choosing to connect to and strengthen their humanity - people choosing to help others do the same.
WE heal ourselves, WE heal the world. These can happen, must happen, together.
