Some of the historical “facts” are interesting…. or should I say appalling

Yesterday I shared my mission. The reason why I want to help women.

It took me nearly 50 years to start reclaiming my voice. I know I’ve told you this before but it’s important. It doesn’t matter how old you are when you start, it’s just important you start.

I was an excruciatingly shy child and teenager. Bright red & mute if spoken to. My body went straight to freeze response. Hell to me was having to speak up in class or be called upon.

It was only in my late teens & early 20’s that I started to come out of this. Even then I was held back by so many traumas & conditioning that I hardly had a voice. This meant I got myself into situations and relationships that kept my voice suppressed & added to the existing trauma.

In my late 40s I decided this was enough. I’d hit the f@*k it stage & knew I had to change & wanted to claim me back.

My voice was the most important thing to me to reclaim. It had been suppressed too long & was stopping me from enjoying & living my life fully.

As part of the journey of reclaiming my voice I started coming back to my body & all it had to offer me. These two things have become my most important path.

It’s a journey I want to inspire other women to take.

Nervous system regulation and safety in my own body are the byproducts of these processes for me. I did not realise how important a regulated nervous system & feeling safe in my body are to my life. When you’ve never had that, you do not realise how special & life changing they are.

I have developed a tool kit of practices and modalities which I will share over the coming days that will help you reclaim your voice and come back to your body.

It is my greatest mission to help every woman reclaim these things for herself. They are life.

Happy International Women’s Day 🌺❤️🌺❤️

I love this poem by Fleassy Malay. Seems appropriate for this day of women. Enjoy

The water holds who I am
It remembers me through lifetimes
I am grounded to Mother Earth in its embrace
Grounded in presence
Grounded in an embrace as old as time
Connected to everything & everyone
Tapped into an eternal knowing
There is strength in grounding to Mother Earth & her elements
A remembering of power & sovereignty
A knowing of the deep love held within the core of the universe & within myself

I am currently in 2 sacred containers.

Shed, a 21 day somatic dance journey, with brittanyjanelaidlaw. And the 21 day self noticing journey with jogoddard_joyhuntress. Both amazing practitioners if you feel called to investigate their work.

I am dipping deeply into my body in both containers.

The greatest learning I am noticing is my ability to hold 2 emotions in my body at the same time. Each day these are opposing emotions - one at the denser end of the spectrum & one at the lighter end of the spectrum. Holding each of them is both exhilarating & scary at the same time. It is such a growth opportunity for me.

Another learning is my ability to find a connection between them both. Sometimes that is a question to be asked of myself which incorporates both emotions & sometimes it is a statement that arises in my body with truth.

It is also learning & exploring that both emotions on opposite sides of the emotional spectrum can be true at once.

I am loving the wisdom these teachings are giving me & the opportunity to come back to my body through movement & concentrated noticing. It is only going to deepen my work as a practitioner & the spaces I can guide you to & hold you in. That’s the most exciting part for me. The opportunity to deepen my skills to hold you!!

This is my photo from today. Space was the theme & here I am creating space for my body & expansion.

The sky stopped me in my tracks today when I stepped outside.

The awe at the beauty, the vastness of it, the love & care Mother Nature has for us were the things that came to mind.

Then the feeling that we are all one, connected at our core.

Then a deep, deep gratitude which has left me feeling amazing as I step into this day.

Plus if you look closely you’ll see 2 snakes heads. A reminder of the liminal space we are in at the moment as we close out the final space of the year of the snake.

Have there been times that you have been stopped in your tracks by Mother Nature? Do you take the time to notice her beauty & her love for us?

I shaved these on Friday after about 2 months & now I’m kinda regretting it.

I struggle with the narrative & conditioning that women need to remove their body hair. That we’re dirty if we don’t remove it or somehow less a woman.

And don’t get me started about the expectation of a hairless po**nstar p&s&y. Although if that is your choice I fully respect it. Because it is a choice, a sovereign choice.

Although I feel that some of the time it’s a choice based on cultural conditioning & societal pressure rather that sovereignty. A message that has been driven into us since childhood without our conscious awareness.

I really wonder about the messages we’re sending to our ourselves & our girls when we call ourselves unclean & consistently push a narrative driven by patriarchy.

What are your thoughts? I’d love to hear your opinion.

This has been a block for so long!!!

Quite frankly it still is!

I started this page just after Christmas & it’s taken me nearly a month to come back to. It is not something that will be done quickly. I will go at the pace my nervous systems dictates. What really matters is that I have started & I will keep coming back to it.

This isn’t just a web page. This means visibility. This means stepping into this business seriously with intent. This means making even more changes so I can have space to create this vision. This means stripping back layers & blockages as they arise. This means vulnerability on so many levels. This means not playing or toying with the idea of Metra Healing as a business but actually stepping into the role.

And quite frankly, it scares the f out of me.

Yes I am already practicing & have clients but this takes it to another level. This is my face out in the world as a practitioner & it brings with it a dose of imposter syndrome.

I have no doubt there are more layers underneath but these are the ones most present at the moment as I work through this stage of the journey.

I know I am an amazing practitioner & have clients that attest to that. There is a difference between knowing & proclaiming that knowing to the world though.

I want to share this journey with you because turning up in my vulnerability is one of the things that builds trust & safety. That’s one of the hallmarks of what I consider vital when I want to work with someone.

I hope you enjoy the ride.

Joe Williams states that “healing doesn’t happen within four walls”

The truth of that was shown to me this morning. I woke up feeling low & couldn’t sit with myself to see why. Even calling my energy back & clearing anyone else’s energy attachments didn’t work so I decided to head out for a walk to my local creek & bushland.

The shift was nearly immediate. Yawning started straight away & by the time I got to the creek & bush something had shifted.

This allowed me to sit in silence with the water, trees, Mother Nature & the universe. Then the downloads began.

Your hands do not need to grasp so firmly. Let them loosen. Your body will follow. Stop the searching & seeking. Allow it to come to you.

The universe then showed me its abundance. When you allow it gives with an open heart. When you open your heart to receive & also to give it shows you how much. If you hold with a gentle hand, it doesn’t matter what comes & goes. The universe shows you its flow.

This is the power of the earth, connection & the universe plus the belief in that power.

I share this because in a world of increasing disconnection to self, others & Mother Nature it’s important to know there is a path back to connection.

Seven years ago this wasn’t my path. I was completely disconnected from myself, living in negativity & anger. Toxic to be around, which was reflected in my outer world. I found the strength to shift that & I’m a different person today. One who I actually like.

This is now my gift of service to others. To show you the path I travelled as you unravel back to connection with self, others, Mother Nature & the universe.

If any of this is resonating, please reach out & let’s have a chat.
