Accessing Our Intuition

Accessing Our Intuition

Our intuition is only accessible for us if we are present with ourselves

Like every year I have just traveled to Germany, which for me is always a time for self exploration, contemplation and practice.I am spending time with my parents, which is a source of delight and struggle at the same time. As I am exploring the different emotions that are coming up I realize how many ideas I have about my parents and how challenging it is to be totally present with them and myself. I carry so many beliefs in general as to how parents/people should be and specifically as to how my parents should be and aren’t. This of course sets me up for disappointment and is in the way of just being with them and experience what happens for me and in my body from moment to moment.

So my practice is to let go of thoughts, ideas, the stories of my mind and stay in the moment and meet everyone as they are right now. To listen without judgement and be open to different viewpoints and realities.
This is also the only way how I can be in touch with my needs, my own flow, my guidance, my intuition.

How is that for you?

Maybe you want to take a moment and ask yourself if you can be in touch with yourself when you are around others, especially anyone challenging like possibly your parents, ex partners, children? Can you actually feel what is happening in yourself, rather than trying to change your outside world in order to feel better? If not, what would it take?

How would your life be different if you could feel your vulnerability, be in touch with what you need, rather than being frustrated that the outside world is not meeting your needs? How would it be if you could be aware of anything that causes activation inside of you and then check in how to regulate yourself again.

How would your life be different if you could be with yourself when you experience something undesired that appears to come from the outside? How would it be to hold yourself and your little one right now and make them feel safe and held? Are you in touch with your needs and your vulnerability in this moment? How do you feel in your body?When you are present with yourself you are able to feel the flow of life and can easily get in touch with the light that lives you. You are available for your way of receiving intuitive information and act from your guided self.

I think this makes a wonderful practice in every day life. What do you think?

Much love and many blessings,
Ghata

SOL Spirit of Light Training part 4, March 2018, Mullumbimby

SOL Spirit of Light Training part 4, March 2018, Mullumbimby

We just completed the last part of the SOL Spirit of Light Training 2017/ 2018. Some of the participants couldn’t be there this weekend, but they were with us in spirit, especially Cara, who has given birth to a beautiful baby girl a couple of weeks before we started part 4.  I feel privileged and humbled by every ones willingness and dedication to grow and show up. What an amazing training this was! Here are some impressions:

I am looking forward to the next SOL Spirit of Light Training and we already have quite a few bookings. If you want to join us……just jump in!

 

Women Emerging in Hunter Valley

Women Emerging in Hunter Valley

A couple of weeks ago Shivani Gupta and I held our first retreat with women who wanted to start the year doing something different. We used our combined skills to help the women to purposefully set their intentions for the year, get into more of their intuition and learn to meditate and go inward.

Both Shivani and I love working with people and especially support women to become conscious about what they want to create and give them some tools to use in their lives. Here are some photos from our time together. It was such a blast!!

Because the event was so successful we decided to run it again on 21-23 September 2018. If you are interested contact me and watch out for more information on my homepage or the newsletter in the near future.

The Value of Grounding Yourself

The Value of Grounding Yourself

I believe that it is necessary to ground ourselves in our physical existence in order to regulate, find balance and make changes.

I recently had an experience where some emotional challenge triggered me so much that I couldn’t sleep, couldn’t stop crying and never mind ground myself. The only thing I could reach out to was my practice. At some point I remembered my breath, felt my feet on the ground and I started finding some safe places in my body. Slowly I started to relax, regulate and was able to deal with the situation.

Grounding is not only helpful to connect to self-awareness, but also to experience self-acceptance and self-love. Grounding helps us to learn, to integrate and to enjoy life.

Maybe you want to take a moment now to feel your feet, then feel your whole body and slowly become aware how you are experiencing yourself right now from the inside. Start being curious about your way of grounding, how you experience your roots growing into the earth and being here in your unique body in this particular stream of life.

I am celebrating my own uniqueness and I am celebrating you in your unique life stream. And maybe when the going gets tough next time you can remember this moment, this curiosity, this appreciation of yourself.

Much love and many blessings,
Ghata

SOL Spirit of Light Deepening / Relating Intimately, Mullum February 2018

SOL Spirit of Light Deepening / Relating Intimately, Mullum February 2018

Can it get any better? A fabulous group of SOL Spirit of Light trainees and graduates, the theme “relating intimately, depth, fun, learning, insights, using life’s challenges for more learning….there is nothing I would have rather done. An amazing and fabulous 4 days. Thanks to everyone who came, trusted, played and made these 4 days remarkable.

No rain nor getting flooded in and out stopped us from exploring and learning.

bec

We even had to spend half a day at my place….and it worked so well too.

And then back at the venue for our last day and completion.

I am grateful and feel so blessed! And I am already plotting the SOL Deepening for next year.

SOL Spirit of Light Training Part 1 Mullumbimby August 2017

 

I wonder if I always feel like this is the best SOL Spirit of Light training ever after an event?! Possibly it is because I love my work so much, but these last 4 days, the first part of the SOL Spirit of Light training in Mullumbimby was everything I could have ever dreamed of and more.

Such a wonderful collection of participants who were all willing to dive right in and loved exploring the realms of energy and healing.

So many deep and intimate moments

love and laughter

healing and delight.

And luckily this was just the first weekend out of 4. So we have so much more to learn and share with each other. Thank you everyone for coming and reminding me that I not only love this work, but that it makes a difference!
