⁉️ My dream self kept asking me to choose between ‘tranquility or happiness’ ⁉️

🌾 ‘tranquilidad o felicidad’ 🧜🏽‍♀️

What do you think? False dichotomy?? Or is it saying ‘stop trying to find happiness without ruffling a few feathers’. Please discuss!

Can you be tranquil and find happiness?

Today I celebrate 1 000 000 views! 💥 I also celebrate life and gratitude towards being given the chance to share a message that has changed the way I live my life forever. I celebrate the support of my friends and family. I celebrate every single person who has watched my talk and I celebrate those who continue to message me daily, confiding in me. You see, it was this day, 3 years ago, that I started walking on the path towards living my purpose. I started discovering who I was by putting in the effort to get to know myself and prioritizing my own needs. Self-discovery is SUCH a beautiful gift. I guess that I just want the world to know this. I want to help people realize this. To realize the power that lies in building a relationship with yourself and connecting with yourself. To realize the personal and inner power this brings you. Personal growth is definitely a choice, a choice you can never go wrong with. Choosing to invest in yourself allows you to start creating a beautiful place inside of yourself first, from which you then begin to expands outwards into the world. You change and your whole outlook on life changes. I believe that if everyone took the time to get to know themselves a bit more and become their own friend first, loving themselves first, the world would be a much better place. A world filled with strong, beautiful and connected individuals who are able to give and receive love because they gave love to themselves first. SO MUCH LOVE 💗💗💗

Relationship status: it’s complicated. There’s a dance between the polarities of feminine and masculine (or yin and yang) that exists in each of us. Most of us have more of one than the other, and that isn’t really dictated by our biological gender. So it’s quite possible to be, for example, a straight man with a very strong feminine essence. I’ve started to understand gender, energetic polarity and sexuality as more like a kind of continuum rather than a black and white thing. We all exist on this series of sliding scales rather than simply in one of the three boxes western society has designated for us: male, female or other. According to David Deida, we’ll pretty much be attracted to our energetic opposites. And that can work INSIDE the relationship, but with the modern shifting of gender roles in society suddenly you find couples where the female partner has to function in a work environment, or through single parenting, in a much more dominant masculine role than is her natural position. So now we have this beautiful dance of opposite polarities being overlayed with layers of social pressure, societally programmed expectations and economic realities that emasculate men, force women to take on different roles than their disposition dictates and marginalized people who struggle to fit. So what’s the solution? How do we find the balance between Shiva and Shakti? I’m increasingly of the opinion that we can’t. But what we can do is ‘ride the wave’. Because, like everything in the universe, we are shifting and changing all the time. And we need to communicate. There’s a line in the Nina Simone song ‘In the Dark’ where she says to her lover, ‘....don’t be psychic ‘cause you’ll blow it!’ We need to ACTUALLY TALK about what’s going on inside and what our needs are. My very gifted friend, @michaeldale81 , runs a courses just on the process of unpicking what we do to get our needs met, what our ‘shadow’ needs are that drive our behavior and how we can relate better through understanding our own, and others’ needs. So we come back to Responsibility and Self-Enquiry. And as every teacher in the history of spiritual development will tell you: Give more than you receive!

Next to my bed, an old street sign I bought from a weathered old bird of a man who was replacing it with a new one...

Happy Monday! Join us for another informal evening of talks followed by open discussion at 8 Bree street! We have the wonderful @kimwild1 exploring the idea of masuline and feminine.The concept of the divine masculine and divine feminine is a concept of separation, in truth both must be present to form a whole or new state of being, this is the holy trinity. When we become in balance within so we can balance "without". The double meaning in this is, we won't feel lack when we are without a member of the opposite sex in our lives. #real talk #LOKOH #templeofnow
