Spirits, somatics, and a secret third thing (how they work together)
Spirit said “If you must be ‘productive’ feel your grief” and goddamn, what a read.

I had a somatics teacher who said “I’m less interested in recreating a colorful maypole and more interested in understanding what moving together in a communal circle did for connection and embodiment so that I can bring that into daily life instead” and I feel the exact same way.

“No one can punish me for existing when I’m not afraid of myself.”

A thing I actually said out loud yesterday.

Do you “not want to know” specifics about yr European ancestry bc you enjoy the spaciousness of the unknown? Or is it bc you’re afraid of what you’ll need to grieve when you actually connect to your people?

(The grief is already there, btw. The disconnect is just blocking resources + relationships)

I’ve always thought my anger was hatred — so I was afraid of it. Turns out my anger is fueled by love.

I’m angry because I care. Because I’m dedicated to “no more” and “we can do better.” Because my heart is ablaze with discernment, boundaries, passion and creative visioning.

My grounding practice is I feel the hum of the earth beneath my feet and then I fist bump the sun before starting my day.
