Humanity's state of collective codependency

We are finding ourselves in a collective state of co-dependency.  

First, with forced isolation, the veil was peeled back on our reliance on vacations, restaurants, shopping trips and parties. We sat alone, with ourselves realizing how “busy” we have been. And now, the veil is falling further. We’re starting to see the deep reliance we have on systems, people and ideas. 

Who is my next guru?
What is the diagnosis?
What drug should I take?
What diet should I be following?
What self-development program should I do?
What are they steps out of all of this? 

For DECADES we have been a culture who has been outsourcing our most important choices.

What we eat, how we move, when to sleep, how to work, who to listen to. 

It’s everywhere and the scary thing is it’s normal. 

We go to “Experts” - other people who know more about what is best than we do. We ask them questions and then we act, with very little processing or discernment in between. 
Theoretically, experts are great. We can’t do this life on our own. Collaboration with everyone contributing their gifts, expertise and skill is absolutely essential for collective growth. 

The issue comes down to the fact that there is very little for this expert opinion to relate to internally. We aren’t taking someone’s opinion/ information and letting it connect with our own experiences, feelings and thoughts. We’re overriding the emptiness inside and taking on someone else’s energy as our own. If you haven’t caught the codependence yet, there it is. 

Collaboration requires more than one. It requires each human to fully BE their own human. It is a relationship. Me and THEM. My thoughts, beliefs and emotions and theirs. But right now, many people aren’t bringing their 100% to the relationship. They’re looking to be completed by the other. 

The medical system. 
The government. 
The teacher.
The parent.
The partner. 
The social media guru. 

How can we grow and heal collectively if all we’re doing is passing other people’s beliefs back and forth without first running it through our own internal compass? 

How can we grow individually if we’re not willing to actually connect with who the f*ck we are? What we truly believe? How we want to live our life?

This is where I see my work fitting in to the bigger picture of pretty much saving humanity (big statement, I know). I know that empowered, discerning and self-trusting women activate more self-trusting humans. I know that to my core. I know that every time someone who has done an embodied movement session shares what their body wants them to know in that moment, I’ve helped rebuild just a little big of trust so many have lost with themselves.

Trust. The invisible fabric that our humanity is desperate for. With self, and with other. 

It’s not hard. It’s usually quite fun. It starts with 30 minutes of quiet time with your body. Honouring her, listening to her. Moving with her. 

That is the first step. Join me in this movement and let yourself remember who you are and why you’re here.
