Change is the Only Stable Ground

Right now, many of us are wondering about our basic needs. Health. Safety. Food. Finances. Shelter. Paychecks. Relationships. Love. Fear. Anger. We are at the bottom rung of Maslow's Hierarchy of needs....our survival. I get it.

I get that even sending this email on my laptop, in my high-rise condo, with food in my fridge...is coming from a place of privilege. And, in full acceptance of that privilege, I am called to keep writing, to keep uplifting, to keep sharing.

This last week, almost every virtual client session I facilitated revolved around: what the fuck is going on on this planet?!?

So many of my clients courageously and vulnerably shared their anxieties around the unknown. I am humbled at the depths with which they sat with their pain/confusion, reflected and leaned into whatever was arising. Healing all the feels, about all the things.

As we wrapped our hands around all that is happening -- we opened the gates which allowed for Truth to flow through us. This is what we heard during our sessions together:

1. This Virus is not here to kill us. It is a messenger. An Ally. A Force of good.

2. We are experiencing the Shadow of Gaia. This is what our own shadow feels like when we ignore it, step on it or leave it unhealed for too long. We lose control of our deepest desires, we feel trapped. And then we forced to stop, reflect and heal.

3. There is something BIG happening here, and BIG does not mean "bad."

4. We have no choice but to change, as CHANGE is the only stable ground to stand on.

5. Life may never be the same...and that may be positive.

We are all in this together.

Do not let fear overpower you. I believe in you. I believe in us.
