I Am Making a Home Inside Myself
By Julia Fehrenbacher
“I am making a home inside myself.
A shelter of kindness where everything is forgiven, everything allowed—a quiet patch of sunlight to stretch out without hurry,
where all that has been banished and buried is welcomed, spoken, listened to—released.
A fiercely friendly place I can claim as my very own.
I am throwing arms open to the whole of myself—especially the fearful, fault-finding, falling apart, unfinished parts, knowing
every seed and w**d, every drop of rain, has made the soil richer.
I will light a candle, pour a hot cup of tea, gather
around the warmth of my own blazing fire. I will howl
if I want to, knowing this flame can burn through
any perceived problem, any prescribed perfectionism,
any lying limitation, every heavy thing.
I am making a home inside myself
where grace blooms in grand and glorious
abundance, a shelter of kindness that grows
all the truest things.”

From a Focusing place inside, feelings might say this, or they might say something entirely different. Listening can offer some wonderful surprises when we pause.

“Deep acceptance of the way things are
is the source of all creative change.
The perfect paradox."

Being present doesn't mean being passive.

It is totally possible to deeply accept things as they are, be totally present and aligned with the Universe, in an internal state of non-resistance, your heart completely open to the world, your attention deeply rooted in the Now...
.. AND to protest powerfully and peacefully against what you see as injustice: to speak out loudly for love, to amplify narratives of unity and tolerance and inclusivity; to fight beautifully alongside your brothers and sisters for a world that burns inside your hearts.

You are filled with the understanding that underneath all our differences we are the same Consciousness, so compassion infuses your cry.

You have no enemies in your heart, so you are strong.

You are deeply rooted in the Universe, so you speak not only with your own voice; Nature speaks through you, your ancestors speak through you, Life Intelligence speaks through you, and you are unbreakable.

There is no hatred. No inner war. No internal violence.

From a place of deep peace, you shine your light of Truth into the world, fighting on behalf of love, not fighting against some imagined darkness.

You are the world's mother, moving without effort to protect your precious children.

Peacefully, now, you rise.

- Jeff Foster

Whenever I talk about something - a situation, myself, another person, an experience with a group - I can practice tuning in mentally, emotionally and physically with what I talk, no matter what it is. That is talking from within instead of talking ABOUT.
