A Season to Deepen
This is a season where we're being called to level up, we're being shown that which no longer serves us and are being invited into a more integrated, unified experience of life.
As the change occurs, it can feel a little rough. Increasing awareness about areas requiring change can feel overwhelming at times. We may feel like we can't honour all the change that's required, or perhaps we're not capable of it. It can be uncomfortable to sit with behaviours or patterns we've held for a while & to be aware of all the ways they've limited us, or limited our experience with others.
Perhaps there is some roughness on the surface as underlying stresses, unexpressed emotion or unresolved conflicts arise to be fully absorbed, released & healed.
In times like these, it's very important to cleave to our practice & to the wisdom which accompanies it. We can lean into the knowledge that evolution is all that's ever happening. If there is some roughness, some discomfort, then it must be for good. A positive good happening. We are being stretched, we're evolving. Let the dust settle & then see to what extent an expansion has taken place. Do you feel an opening? A settling? Has something been resolved or released? Do you feel an increased capacity to love or to empathise?
It's also good to know that we cannot integrate all the change at once. In nature, a tree does not drop all its leaves at once. We may become aware of many leaves that need to drop, and indeed will, but we don't have to (nor can we, nor are we meant to) drop them all immediately. We notice, we acknowledge & we allow the flow of the evolutionary tide to take care of it in due time.
What you'll notice is that the leaves drop away slowly at first, perhaps it feels like there's no change happening, but it's building. Let's stay out of the overwhelm/unrealistic pressure to make all the change at once.
Our meditation practice is essential to provide a stabilising influence amid the change & to give us the adaptation to be able to integrate change. To allow us to realise that deep inner silence, the baseline of our awareness from which all change arises. We align ourselves with our true Nature & can ease into Nature's timing.
I'm here to support you as you progress. Come to group meditation, listen to the recordings from group meditation & consider joining us inside Pocket Guru next season for more accessible, consistent support & uplift. There are a number of opportunities to connect with me in person in NZ at group meditations in July & August, in Sydney weekly from early August, or for deeper 1:1 support via private mentoring sessions, in person or remotely.
If you feel that sensations of fatigue, stress & overwhelm are quite present for you and the connection to your true Self is feeling a little tenuous, or you're really ready to have a deeper experience, I encourage you to spend a few days away from the daily grind, the ever-repeating known, with me & a wonderful group of meditators this August at our Cape South retreat. There's still time to gift yourself one of the few remaining spots.
Let us take care of everything for you - delicious meals will be ready for you, lots of space to integrate everything you've been experiencing & becoming aware of, time to yourself & the opportunity via immersive rounding to re-establish & deepen the connection to the you without the thoughts. Enliven & expand into your baseline state of inner fulfilment via the regular, deeper exposure of rounding, release the equivalent stress of 6 months meditation & emerge full of clarity, energy & dynamism to face & interact with the season ahead.
I look forward to seeing you all soon. If I can support you in any way please reach out. Wishing you all an expansive season ahead.
With love & Jai Guru Deva*
