Embodied Re-Integration--Wholehearted Mysticism in the Everyday

This is an invitation for beginners and seasoned practitioner… for those seeking more support, are wanting to learn more tools and practices for integration and re-integration in the everyday. The rubberband effect can be difficult coming back into the everyday responsibilities and relationships after having a deeply therapeutic experience, especially in isolation. Embodied Re-Integration is a 6-month journey, held in community as we Become the Embodied Rose!

To Embody a Rose, one experiences a deep connection to self, others, Spirit, and the natural world. They embrace the Divine and walk in Love, Compassion, and Gratitude. They Lead from the Heart and Follow the Truth of their Soul!

This does not mean spiritual bypassing, and all sunshine and rainbows. This is about radically accepting all parts of ourselves and experiences, including the Shadow. It is about understanding the Shadow and appreciating the Shadow, versus shaming, judging, and resisting. The Shadow shows up when we are feeling unsafe, when our needs are not being met. The Shadow is the Inner Child asking for support.

I do promise some Sunshine and Rainbows… as that is the medicine of the Storm, of Sacred Balance… Appreciating the medicine of the Light and Dark, knowing you cannot have one without the other, that both have a purpose. The goal is Harmony. When one is out of balance, this is when we experience dis-ease—physically, mentally, emotionally, energetically, spiritually as played out in our bodies and relationships.

Embodiment is spirit in the human form… we are all individual representations of Spirt, the Divine!!

The Embodied 5 Petaled Rose:

Petal 1: The Physical Body

We know that the body carries the wisdom and the experiences of the past… the good, the bad, and all the in-between. The body carries the genetic material from our ancestors, and our body remembers what our brains do not.

Our resilience is not just informed by our life experiences in this life, but also reflected by those of our ancestors and past lives (more of this in Petal 5).
