When you feel helpless, hopeless, afraid, stuck, or confused, there is respite in the essence of the Sacred Feminine—accepting all emotions in their suchness. There are desires beneath the feelings that are longing to be recognized. In the release of the emotional tension, the inner voice can finally be heard. —Misa Hopkins

Find a quiet space. Sit comfortably and close your eyes. Breathe gently into yourself until your mind and body quiet down. Breathe into the space of you– the space between your thoughts. Become aware of your heart and breathe until your mind and body become still and your heart opens. Allow yourself to become aware of your energetic womb and your capacity to hold life in love.

There it is~that old discomfort. You think it is healed, and there it is again demanding attention. It will not be ignored, so open your heart and let it in. Be present with the feeling~whatever it is. It exists for a reason and longs to be known, witnessed and understood.

Allow your heart to wrap itself around the feeling. Let the feeling be as it is so that it can be truly understood in your compassion. Notice that in your witnessing, the feeling slowly transforms on its own, until all that is left is love.

When you feel full, breathe deeply, exhaling through your mouth. Wiggle your fingers and toes. Gently open your eyes. Live in the emergence of your emotional freedom.
