Nature as Medicine

I've been coming to this magical water hole near my place most mornings lately. I feel deep belonging here, love, acceptance and a sense of being a part of a whole. I feel insignificant yet at the same time so essential to the ecosystem and intricate Web of life.

When things are challenging for me around wanting to know what the future holds and what decisions I need to make and I get stuck in my mind trying to work things out I remember I can't think my way out of a prison made of thought.

Sometimes we have to sit in the muck for a while... not knowing and waiting for clarity and direction from something greater than the mind.

I connect back to Spirit, trusting and taking one day at a time. Sometimes one hour at a time. Sometimes one moment at a time. Breathing, listening to my body and its messages and asking myself what can I do right now to connect back to the part of me that knows? How can I take small steps to feel safe in the unknown. The spaces in between. The void.

In my heart I know I am supported and know that with my intuition if it isn't a clear fuck YES or fuck NO then sometimes it is a gentle... wait..... until it is an all body knowing. This can be hard because we haven't been taught to trust our bodies and so many of us believe everything we think. A practice of slowly gently returning to the wisdom of the body and know that it is in constant conversation with us.

In my own journey sometimes I have had to make choices that go against what my body is saying in order to know exactly what NO feels like, so that the next time I recognised the message and could trust and follow the guidance and know in every cell.
