Hello ,
I’m coming your way with a little personal update and a free guided meditation that you may enjoy.
Since I last wrote, I had a fun month exploring Spain and speaking Spanish the entire time (I’ve been learning it since I was 19). I was also positively surprised by the many things I loved while being there: the people, their aliveness, sense of community, great humour, and the ease of a well-functioning European infrastructure. Not to forget the super fun, advanced Bachata dancing, my new favourite.😆
I also came to Toronto and hosted another series of Authentic Relating events, which gave me so much joy. I loved being in service and witnessing people leaving with big smiles, feeling free to be themselves and to connect from a more honest place, without having to pretend, for a change.
Something that has also recently emerged is a strengthening of my muscles to feel and allow joy. I used to have thoughts of planning for the worst-case scenario, worrying if x/y/z doesn’t work out. (Does this sound familiar to you?) Over the past couple of months, one of my practices has been to consciously allow joy: to feel small moments of it deeply in my body, in my bones, tissues, cells and to allow it to amplify.
This practice has been working. Even sitting in cold and grey Toronto, I can now tap into a quiet sense of joy and let it expand. A meditation emerged from this, unexpectedly, during a recent session with participants in The Power of Connection Monthly Membership, and I’m happy to share it with you, as a small holiday gift.
You can access the Cultivating Joy Meditation here.
If it resonates, feel free to forward this email to a friend or two who might benefit from a little more ease and joy during the holidays.
Lastly, I wish you and your dear ones a beautiful holiday season; one that feels nourishing rather than rushed, with moments of rest, real connection, and whatever brings you a sense of ease. May there be laughter where it fits, quiet when you need it, and lots of sparkles of joy along the way. ✨ May you be well.♥️
With love,
Roxana♥️
