Last weekend Nikki Slade came to Chester and we hosted one to one sessions and an amazing workshop on the Sunday ...and I was reminded of lots of things
- our potential to be truly loving to ourselves and to others
-to be honest in our communications
-to be courageous in mastering our "stuff"
-to let go when the last thing we wish to do is to let go
and how lucky I am to be surrounded by such amazing people who take responsibility for their lives.
Nikki talked of "surfing the waves " of life.I liked this metaphor. Its not a case of reaching nirvana and calm blue seas forever , or at least not until we move into our next life. It is about welcoming the challenge of each wave and the joy in learning how to master them,beautifully and with grace.
Today I came head to head with another challenge and it was in the moment when my anger melted into compassion , that I realised I was at last starting to get the "hang" of this journey.
Whatever "triggers" you tomorrow or this week, try putting on the other persons shoes. Call them and Listen to what they are really saying. And allow your heart to open . Its so much easier than you think and gets easier with practice. Honest.
Let me know how you get on
Lots of love
Marie-Claire
