For me resilience is an nurturing compass. A way of seeing and approaching life. To trust that The universe is working for me and not against me. To trust and believe that I will get what I need and that “All of me is welcome here”.
It was one moment in my youth when I decided to choose to use my challenging upbringing as a Strength instead of weakness, which I still do.
Later in life I realised that I am not my thoughts and feelings. They are a part of me but they ARE NOT my essense. This made me capable to more and more see through all the “drama” my mind and wounds can create. Instead I started to search my essence in my body in the present moment which lead me to different practices as dance, yoga, breath work and meditation.
I am now a mum and every day my daughter reminds me to be in the present moment and that everything is always in transformation. That we know for a fact. Which can be a soothing knowledge when the hard times hit me.
Nowadays I dream for my family to live in a community, so we can share our different gifts with eachother in daily life. But until then I do what is needed to create spaces were like minded come together in Umeå in cacao ceremony, festivals, dance, women’s circles, home conserts, etc..
I believe that it is now more than ever important to find the courage to be together and boost your life force so you can stand strong in this world.
