To walk the path of our heart’s deepest truth brings all of our pain and challenges to the surface. It is a path of courage, forbearance, strength, fortitude and faith.
The gift of facing and being with ourselves to such depth is that of allowing our wounds to be profoundly seen, honoured, healed and released.
It is a path of authenticity.
Complete authenticity, within ourselves and with others, is no small matter. It is a life’s work.
Thank you for being you.

Who are we to doubt the workings of the universe?!
Self awareness and observation brings the capacity for conscious choice and better relationships.
It is challenging to face our demons and the things we judge ourselves for, however when we get support to look within and with non-judgement learn more about ourselves; our protective mechanisms and patterns, it is empowering and brings healing and capacity for change.
Silence is always there in the depth of our essential aware being.
When we open to life with a beginners mind, we are able to listen, learn, discover and receive.
If we think we know, on some level we are not alive, we are closed.
“It’s the most humbling thing in the world to know that we don’t know. To know that we can’t know in our minds. This opens the way for us. The way to the greatest knowing is through not knowing.”
Adyashanti.
When we learn to be present and balanced with ourselves with our more difficult feelings, we become more authentic and we gain more choice and control over how we share and relate with others.
Connect in with silence everyday.
Trusting this moment as it is.
Allowing stillness.
Breathing silence.
Resting in presence.
Live guided meditation with crystal singing bowls was held tonight at Instagram @ratnadyer. Next one will be in a fortnight’s time.
Please join us.
Blessings to all 🙏

Be aware of your protective mechanisms. If we are unconscious to them, they can end up generating the very thing we are trying not to have.
For example if we’re trying to avoid rejection or loss, with our protective mechanisms we might (consciously or unconsciously) not let people fully in. Then with time they end up stepping back from a relationship with us, because they don’t feel the connectedness and closeness they need. The loss and rejection is fulfilled.
A tricky pattern to get out of.
The first step is to raise our awareness around our patterns and underlying fears.
When we can look past the hard shell; the seeming assured harshness or arrogance of someone, we might begin to connect with understanding the reason why they have formed it or feel they need it.
Don’t always be convinced by the persona people show to the world, there is almost always deeper stuff going on.
