Greetings Everyone and hello Joe what a Great Question and Fabulous Jumping off Point
My greatest aspiration is to firstly educate our children to access their inner strengths through simple meditation practices, taught in schools or even early learning centres.. children need to learn to be still.. and listen they know more then we do about intuition and creativity..and doing this through enviromental education
Secondly to bring people of all ages into the natural environment and to use this planet’s wealth of natural resources as the classroom for inner journeys and conversations and storytelling and shared communication all the while they are experiencing and interacting with the external environment.
my philosophy “as within so without’…Hi everyone My name is Rachelle and I am in rural NSW australia.. Happy to meet you all
I have been here for 3.5 weeks and am on level 1… very busy with lots of changing happening quickly around me since starting..
Cheers
love to link up and create a chat group to journey this path we are on together
EnviroDreamGirlHi Susan I am in NSW Gloucester – bit chilly here today and the wind is blowing
I think you replied to Dawn and Dasha, as I just did…
I have only met one other Aussie on here – Sequoia who is from Qld..
We should link up if possible…
hope you agree
Cheers Rachelle
EnviroDreamGirlGreeting Dasha, Dawn and Susan,
Welcome Ladies, I have been here only a little longer than yourselves, and your words echo familiarity to my heart and mind… I to am in my second half century, (getting younger i believe) , and have also struggled for many years with Anxiety and depression… so Dasha you have taken an amazing step to reach out and express yourself so eloquently – see this expression as a gift you may not have recognised within yourself….you spoke of you challenges so clearly we all felt as if we were right there beside you, and i was literally right there, doing the same… looking out the window wondering if the world even knew i existed…
I too felt the pain of this inertia, not so long ago, since i saw signs you have mentioned Dasha.. Dawn and Susan is right in acknowledging time and space for things to change at the right pace, and not forced… I found this very hard to accept and it became my daily challenge…I had to accept that there was a better way for me and it was not the way i had always done things. I had to embrace change…. in very small doses at first
Breathe beautiful one and know that there are many here to look out for you as you start this journey… I am still on level one at one particular point dealing with a lot i know i must address before i can move on ….
That i know i needed to stop and rest and reflect for longer here…this is my gift of awareness to myself.. and its all ok !! that this is how its meant to be… we all walk at a different pace depending upon our height and the daily mood and the goal for the day.
And there is nothing wrong in that.. dont judge yourself by the movement of others you are not others, you are you !I am now creating a new life direction and improving my financial circumstances around me, a new business venture is on the horizon, new employment was gained 2 weeks ago and new friends are popping up all since starting the course only 3 weeks ago – so very quickly in fact,,,,and you will experience this too Dasha…make sure you simply start by finding one lovely thing to celebrate that happened in your day.. as these are the signposts for gratitude and they are around you… and then look for 2 then next … it might be a stranger smiled at you or you smiled at them, or you let someone have that parking space you just found….
its all in the little things around you…
Dawn’s suggestions of bringing mindfulness into your daily activities is a great starting point.. it is all in the change of a single thought…and not admonishing yourself for other thoughts ….you will have them, as we all do…we just notice them, try not to become engaged with them… and send them on their way gently..
I believe we need to be more gentle with ourselves…we beat ourselves up so much more than is necessary….
Take care precious caterpillar – you are on the path to transition into a beautiful creation..just imagine you are resting on a wonderful leaf, on a safe and secure branch upon a strong and aged and very wise tree that is protecting you as you grow.. and we are all the other leaves surrounding you, protecting and supporting you as you do
We hope to hear from you soon
