My Sweet Community

I’ve always heard that healing happens in community which feels like an inconvenient truth when you’re lacking in the community department.

I’m really lucky to have found community this past year. So much of what I’m now able to offer and receive in community came from really sitting with and getting to know my own medicine first.

That can be a lonely process but it can also be so clarifying. We all hold the secrets of the Universe. Our life experiences, our wounds, our shadows, and our courageous moments, give us a perspective on the vastness of the Universe that is perfectly and uniquely our own.

Giving our power away - or even just taking on an idea as ours because someone we resonant with said it out loud, is such an engrained habit.

But doing so denies us the knowledge of self. It denies us the possibility of having a different take. Of arriving at a truth because we were lead there, because our bodies and our Spirits and our hearts, all came together to whisper “this too is mine”.

But to know if that’s the case, we have to be attuned to the messages being sent by our bodies and our Spirits and our hearts.

And that skill comes from being a community within ourselves. From knowing the community within ourselves. When you start from that place, building community with other people becomes the legend of the Cosmos meeting itself.

Give your power to no one or nothing

Check in with yourself always and first

And know that even though you hold the entire Universe

We all comprise different pieces of the verse

Which means this song is one we’ve already rehearsed
