I was thinking about what I really want to do in this life that has been gifted to me, and now I can say without fear, guilt or shame, that I don’t know. I think this is one of the greatest gifts my practice has given me. The acceptance of the unknown and the strength…

Trust

Reflections2 Comments on Trust

Yesterday was a rough day. Things happened that weren’t planned. Things out of our control throw us sometimes into a confused state. Change always happens even if we are unconscious about it. Yesterday something different happened too; my reaction to the changes unfolding in front of me wasn’t one of total dispair and lack of…

Bye 2018

I was trying to remember where I was for the past years in these end of year dates, and I realised how my memory is going back to it’s original state of non-linear recognition of time frames. . What stays with us is the lesson learned, the experience lived, the actual essence and wisdom of…

On the journey

Wanting to feel understood, validated, heard… without wanting to be seen.These contradictions that make up most of life. My life at least! . I wonder what happened to that person I once was that wasn’t afraid or shy of anything? All that extroverted action has made the pendulum swing extremely to the other side for…

. I realise now that the path changes as we walk it. . From searching, looking, and grasping for answers, to the return home to oneself and back into the world. The sacred in the ordinary, the need of accepting our humanness, and not only our divine counterpart. . To be here, in this moment,…

🌀 Spiraling in and out of being. Remembering.🌿
I see the world beyond the world. I can see, without having to look. I can feel, without having to analyse. I can know, without having to think. Knowledge turns to wisdom, there is nothing left to prove. Nothing to win, nothing to lose. In the deepest silence, there is ought to be a cry. The birth of someone old, coming back to be renewed. . . . In this chaotic ocean of lost, missing, and hidden parts, lies the wholeness I so wish to integrate. In the acceptance that to feel complete, no severed parts must be left behind without a touch of attention. Maybe not everything has a reason, but everything has a deep meaning for me. All is the map of my soul that leads me Home. ☆
.🌹. You, darkness, of whom I am born— I love you more than the flame that limits the world to the circle it illumines and excludes all the rest. But the dark embraces everything: shapes and shadows, creatures and me, people, nations—just as they are. It lets me imagine a great presence stirring beside me. I believe in the night. Rainer Maria Rilke ~ 1,11 Rilke's Book of Hours.
"The tree that would grow to heaven must send its roots to hell." Nietzsche. If there ever was a sentence that rings true for me this year, this is it. For the past 10 years I have grown so much, changed in ways I couldn't have predicted, always in pursue of a better version of myself that could be more than enough and worthy of this life, in pursue of the light, in pursue of inner peace and my home in this existence... and I forgot the most important lesson of them all: balance. But Life is always wiser than I think I am, and always has a way of putting things back into the balanced perspective. I flew and flew so high, that I burnt my wings in the realisation that nothing underground is sustaining my height. No roots, no base, just a falsely justified list of old values and beliefs that had served their purpose in the past and that were so dusty and old they couldn't be more than a memory dissolving... hopefully integrating in myself. It has been a powerful, transformative and truly painful descent to my undergroung cave deep below. Step by step I walked through shadows of my own making, I put on and took off many masks, I uncovered deeply hidden potential waiting to be acknowledged, I forgave, I remembered, I held my own hand and descended through every portal until the only thing left was absolute darkness. I was afraid, but I was more tired. I was angry, but I was more tired. I was sad, but I was more tired. I had to let go of my tight grasp on who I thought I was, who I think I am, and surrendered and closed my eyes. I spiraled into the abyss. I cried myself into ecstasy. And in that unbearable sufferring that still brings tears to my eyes as I write, I felt it. I felt it all. All. I felt myself die. I felt all the parts of me I left behind and locked away. I felt how cruel I had been to the me's that had helped me survive in the past. I felt my heart burst open in my chest as I held my inner self in a compassionate embrace. I felt how all I believed in became smoke, ascending away into oblivion. Continues in Comments or on the Blog www.danahblancoyoga.com Happy 2020!
So lucky to live on this amazing island. 💚🌋🏜️🏝️
In life we go through many stages, cycles that are interwoven into the cosmos of our reality. 🌀 Birth-Death-Birth-Death.Birth... 🌀 We walk through life fearing the great end, when in reality we are so used to endings, and to beginnings. If only one thing could live eternally as truth in my being is this knowing, that nothing and everything are just two sides of the same thing. An infinite spiral of change. 🌀 #danahblancoart
“If you don't get what you want, you suffer; if you get what you don't want, you suffer; even when you get exactly what you want, you still suffer because you can't hold on to it forever. Your mind is your predicament. It wants to be free of change. Free of pain, free of the obligations of life and death. But change is law and no amount of pretending will alter that reality.” Socrates. ••• I should tattoo this in my forehead or something. 😅 Always questioning change... Always wanting to know it all, for what? To make "things better"? Who am I to know what better is? What good is? The struggle is real, the struggle to accept everyone's own path, to accept this world that hurts me. It's a constant practice. I am thankful I see this in me, so I can practice letting go...
