A Beautiful and Airy Inner Transformation - A Reunion with My Little Self ๐ธ
This is me in childhood
March 1, 2019
What a beautiful symbol ๐ธโจ
Today is the first day of spring, and just yesterday โ on the very last day of winter โ I went through a beautiful and airy inner transformation.
Today I feel spring blossoming within me tooโฆ ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ
But it feels different this time โ lighter, softer, more spacious than beforeโฆ ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ
Yesterday, during my Gestalt therapy training, I had a deeply moving session with our invited trainer โ the incredible and powerful psychotherapist Natalia Schubert.
It was such an emotional experience for me โ tender, delicate, and light as air. The theme itself was gentle, subtle, and full of softnessโฆ ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ
Yesterday, I met and touched the little Tina that lives inside me โ the sweet little girl I once pushed away in my childhood.
I pushed her away because I thought I had to be like everyone else, that I needed to fit in, to be liked, to please others.
But that little Tina was always so pure, kind, lighthearted, and radiant โ gentle as spring itself.
When she grew a little older, she became afraid โ afraid that if she stayed this soft, this bright, this open, the big world would swallow her up.
So she learned to protect herself. She tried to be like everyone else โ and in doing so, forgot who she truly was.
Since then, Tina kept comparing herself to others, thinking she wasnโt โgood enough.โ
But how could she be enough, if she was constantly trying to be someone else and not who she really was?
Yesterday, we met againโฆ and it was so moving ๐๐ป๐ธโจ
I promised my little Tina that I will always be by her side โ that I will let her be who she truly is, and that she will always feel safe with me. ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ
Itโs such a tender feelingโฆ ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ and at the same time, so powerful.
Thereโs a quiet strength in her lightness โ a unity, a love so vast it holds the whole universe within it. ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ
I wanted to introduce you to this little Tina too. Sheโs still a bit shy, but oh, sheโs so lovely. ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธโจโจโจ
Our session was so deep, so gentle, that today Natalia told me she too was deeply touched by it and even wrote down her reflections later that evening. That made me so happy ๐๐ป๐ธโ๏ธโจ
Self-discovery is such a fascinating process โ releasing what no longer serves us and returning closer and closer to our true self. ๐ธ๐๐ปโ๏ธโจ
Thatโs the kind of spring I had today ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ
Happy first day of spring, dear ones โ sending you these amazing, tender, light spring feelings and my โchudoebiโ ๐ธ๐ธ๐ธ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ปโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโจโจโจ
