Surrender: A Rite of Passage

This episode of She Gathers Beauty marks one year for the podcast! Thank you, beautiful listener, for your grace and presence here at this hearth fire where we meet each other each week.

Let’s consider that surrender is a rite of passage, an awakening to all of who you are.

What wants to be released from your tight grasp? How can the breath in your belly move more freely?

What would it be like to try letting go and stop holding on so very tightly to how things are supposed to look, feel, and be?

I share a story about my own rite of passage and what ceremony really wanted to happen once I let go of trying to control every detail and let myself be free instead.

What longs to be free inside of you? 

What refuses to be silenced anymore?

”whatever you feel, it’s a blessing. claim it.”

How chaos and confusion can be a great navigational tool and prompt to surrender.

I want all of me.

What would it be like to want ALL of yourself? Not just parts. Not just the “good” parts. Every little bit of you.

The offering of two poems for you: May the Butterflies Be Freed & I Want You to Show Me.

May you remember that you are sacred. This moment is ceremony. You do get to live your wildly naked truth.

Thank you for joining me at the hearthfire. Have a beautiful week!
