After A Month Of Rest And Introspection I'm Looking Forward To What's Coming
When I woke up this morning I felt stiffness and pain in my neck and upper back. This happens to me very rarely and I'm already feeling better but I realized I had to change my plans for today. Part of the plan was to go through my storage space in the basement. It's not really necessary but I have felt that the energy down there is bugging me for quite some time. I want to get rid of things and just organize things better.

The plan was actually also to post about this in The Hive Minimalistic Community, a community @artemislives invited me to. Well, it's in the pipeline! Not only about my storage space but how I have been living more minimalistic over the years and that having too much stuff around me really stresses me out. But that's another post 🙂

The strong wind doesn't really show. Fun fact; I actually used to live in one of the buildings on that hill.* 🙂</center>

Of course it would be great to go out for a walk but there's a storm here and it's also snowing/raining. In a way, I feel it's a great way to end the first month of the new year. I haven't done much in January. As I shared in my last post, I fell ill but when I started feeling better I stayed in a rather introverted space. I had a lot to process. There was also a lot of resistance and emotional pain. I cried a lot. I caught myself in compulsive thought patterns and I was able to penetrate these thoughts with awareness and acceptance. Suddenly there was so much space. And things slowed down also internally.

4 days ago I got my period and I felt it was so timely. As some of your might know I do my best to honor the different phases of my cycle and when I'm on my period I really do my best to rest, rest and rest. It's also an exciting time because a new cycle starts, it's like a new beginning. Sometimes I wonder how it would be to have a male body and not experience these cycles. I have come to love them. I usually draw five cards for each new cycle. One for each phase and then one for the cycle as a whole. I love this routine, it offers me guidance and often reassurance.

I'm starting to feel that I'm shedding skin. That's also why I have felt a bit lost. But new ideas come to me and there's a lot I want to do differently. 

I have been struggling a lot with worrying lately, as I have also shared before. But now something else has emerged inside of me. I feel a strong desire to mess things up. To see what happens if I do so. It's exciting. I guess I'm in a process of letting go.

After 2 years of an intensive coach training I have also had a break from clients and practices. Actually since mid-November. And lately I have been thinking a lot about how to find my way back there. I think it's clear that I have been giving too much. So many people have also told me that I'm a very giving person and I guess that's true. Especially with my clients, I have really been giving so much. It wasn't really sustainable. It's been a learning process how to hold space for someone else without feeling depleted myself. But I'm starting to feel a desire again to coach. To build something. Create. But I also feel the first step is to start with myself. I need to find my way back to the practices I guide my clients through. And I know I have to start small and go slow. Which is *very* hard for me. But I want to do things differently from now on.

I have also signed up for quite a lot of things here in Stockholm so from next week I'll be more social again. I also want to be more active physically, this month has been a bit of an exception and that's ok. I guess I needed to just let everything go. I have kind of abandoned pole dancing but instead I have signed up for belly dancing, starting next week 🙂 I took belly dancing classes in Berlin but I didn't really get that far. I think it will help me to tap into my sexual energy (dancing always does). Actually, I have decided to set an alarm throughout my workdays and take small dancing breaks. It's just the best way to move your energy 🔥

Thanks for reading 🌸

Love and blessings to you all 💚

Wow what a coincidence. I have that Kuanyin Oracle that I've only used a handful of times. My eyes happened to rest on it today, so I felt inspired to use it. Perfect message about forgiveness and forgiving myself for not being perfect. 💞 Synchronicity

I am amazed that you say you love your monthly cycles.  I think you might be the first person I have ever heard say that.  I absolutely HATE my cycles.  So, I loved this post because it gave me a different perspective. I didn't know you could love this any more than I love it when I get a migraine or break a bone.  I will have to consider this.  

I think your attitude is very healthy.

Thank you for reading and sharing your relationship with your moon cycle. I understand if it's a challenge to love your cycle if you experience PMS or period cramps but there is so much wisdom there. This is a topic I'm very passionate about and I think I'll actually write a post where I elaborate more.

Me I was still thinking of the belly dancing and I was like "that's cool", did I miss the tampon part? Aaaaah! I am out!

Hey, I think we men have cycles too, but we haven't gotten down to identifying them properly as the lack of bleeding keeps us from paying much attention. Most men are programmed to behave in a specific way all the time, trying to keep up with the traits that define what a "proper man" is, yet those who begin to question these traits and observe their inner processes will often find that there are shifts: times when it's easier to tap into emotion, times when the physical body is strongest, times when dreams are more vivid, times when the rational mind takes over, and so forth.

Glad to know you're looking forward with optimism, and those dancing breaks are a good idea, maybe I'll take up on that. Wishing you good vibes and Love.

Thank you for your comment, much appreciated.

You are right of course, I didn't mean to say that men don't experience any shifts when it comes to their emotions and inner state. I just haven't heard these hormone shifts being so connected to a monthly cycle as it is for women.

I also want to add here that I don't connect all of my inner processes to a specific phase in my moon cycle. It can't explain everything after all 🙂

> Wishing you good vibes and Love.

Right back at you 🙂

> So many people have also told me that I'm a very giving person and I guess that's true. Especially with my clients, I have really been giving so much. It wasn't really sustainable. It's been a learning process how to hold space for someone else without feeling depleted myself. 

I can relate. I think in general, though, as humans we naturally empathize with others and take on others' emotions. If someone close to you is having a hard time, it's difficult to be cheerful yourself. I remind myself though that we are actually helping to lift the other person up by maintaining our natural state of positivity (within reason of course).

Thanks for stopping by 🙂

Yes, that's true for most of us 🙂 But I feel you can also learn to not let it deplete you. There's a way to hold space and support someone without being affected yourself. In the moment yes, if you are fully present. But to not let it stay with you and in your body. It's something I'm practicing at the moment.

Spunds like things are shifting and moving. I'm sure it's going to be an amazing year - I think the whole world is moving out of the chrysalis of the intensity of the pandemic - well I hope so anyway. 

You know I was asked for a tampon at the beach the other day and could finally say out allowed: 'those times are over - I don't bleed anymore!'. I felt so sad for a long time that I was saying good bye to my moon time. I've always been so at one with it and so reverent of it's magic, it was odd to say goodbye. I mean, I also could have given a lecture on moon cups ahaha ...

It's really really hard to find balance with working with other people when your role is to give. I find it hard to protect myself too and in the end I burnt out as a teacher. So you do need to take care of yourself and be aware of what it is you do and feel. 

Can't wait to hear more about what you're learning with herbs!

Yes me too! I'm starting to feel hopeful about this and I'm hoping we can leave all of this behind. It's been such a strange and challenging time for all of us and honestly, I could have done way worse when I think about it.

Aw, I was actually thinking about you when I wrote about my moon cycle and thought that you might feel excluded if you read this. I can't imagine how it is to not bleed anymore but I know it can be a very creative phase of your life. After all, our cycles consume a lot of energy and when they are over a lot of our creative energy is freed up.

I'm sorry to hear you felt burnt out as a teacher. I know this happens to so many of us, especially women. I think for myself I just have to take things slow and not put others' needs before my own. And that might mean that I have to cancel client sessions sometimes (something I have never done, no matter how bad I have been feeling). But it's also a challenge to balance everything when I also have my day job and a lot of other things I want to spend time on (crypto being one of them). I just feel there isn't enough time and that makes it even more of a challenge to take things slow if you understand what I mean.

So nice to read your comments my dear friend ❤️ I hope you are well

xx
