I am here. I am holding space.

Dear Courageous Soul,

I come with my commitment to practice:

I am here. I trust you. I see your greatness. I see your creativity at work to inhabit more and more of your potential and greatness.

I hear your concerns. I hear your laughter, I taste your tears. Your darkness will not shy me away. I stay here, rooted in my commitment to be here. In owning my own darkness I am able to keep my eyes, my mind, my heart wide open when facing your darkness.

I celebrate you and your creativity to find answers to the twists and turns of life. I connect to the infinite being that you are – behind the facades of physical life. I trust that source of yours so deeply. I trust that you walk your path. I feel your commitment to be as useful and effective as possible.

I don’t deny the challenging factors in life. You don’t have to persuade me how heavy life weighs on your shoulders. I sense it. I believe what you say.

And I believe in you. You have all you need to handle this situation in you. I respect your decisions. I trust your innate wisdom. I trust that in every given moment you respond to life in the best way you can. I trust you.

I don’t need to advise you, because I trust your own wisdom. You are an expert of your life.

I listen to what you say – but not to advise you! I listen to you because I know that speaking about one’s situation clarifies it and gives access to new ideas and forgotten resources. I trust you. If you ask me for advice, I will tell you what worked for me in the past in my particular situation while bearing in mind that your situation is different from what I experienced.

When holding space I will invite you to not only speak from your mind, but move deeper into your heart and into your body – to ground your experience in order not to get lost in the mental bubble. I will listen to your words and your body with the intention that you sense yourself again, that you reconnect with yourself, that you see yourself with fresh eyes.

My heart opens up while I tell you this – because I celebrate you and your gifts and your creativity. I celebrate that you walk this planet with us all right now. I celebrate what you want to give to life, to the world, to humanity. I don’t take that for granted.

I celebrate what you are becoming in this very process that you are experiencing right now.

This is my commitment to practice.

With love and admiration,
Uli, your Soul Sister

Follow Your Fascination

Dear Courageous Soul,

You carry a question with you that preys on your mind: “What should I do next in my life? What am I to do?”

Many nice little pictures on Facebook will give you this answer: “Follow your heart.”

But then the question arises: “How to know what my heart wants?” And again you return to the realms of the mind trying to figure it all out with your thinking.

What if the answer was easy? What if the answer was: Follow your enthusiasm. Follow your passion. Follow the subject that might pull you out of snoozing in front of the TV. Which word would it be that managed to wake you up from your doze? What makes your heart beat faster? What would you like to do “forever” if you had the time? What fascinates you?

And I promise: Each path that brings more of the above into your life – more joy, more passion, more facination, more enthusiasm – is your dharma path. For joy, passion, fascination, enthusiasm are divine sign post! 🙂 ❤ 🙂

May your heart sing its song. May you dance along your dharma path! Maybe sometimes clumsily, sometimes gracefully – no matter what. May your heart radiate its inner sun!

I see you dancing in beauty.
Uli – your Soul Sister
