Inner Earthquakes and Tsunamis

Yesterday an earthquake of the magnitude 8.9 hit the Pacific Ocean nearby Northeastern Japan triggering a massive tsunami.  It is estimated over a 1000 people have died. 

I often imagine Mother Earth is within my womb.   She goes through all the changes I go through.  Her balance is within me. 

Have you ever had emotions so overwhelming you could not stop crying, a feeling of water washing through your whole self? an inner tsunami, clearing out the old energy within, allowing wellness and wellbeing to return.

The same as the stillness of a lake or the gentle caressing of a wave, we have within us the whole world of peace, tranquility, sea, volcanoes, earthquakes and tsunamis.

 

Nothing is separate.  Without my eyes, my ears, my senses the world would not exist for me.  It is the same for everyone.  Choose to see the world within and bring love back home to yourself.

The metaphorical landscape within us, encompassing stillness, tranquility, and the potential for both gentle waves and powerful upheavals, mirrors the diverse landscapes of the external world. This interconnectedness emphasises the oneness of our experiences with the world around us.

The reminder that nothing is separate, and our perception of the world relies on our senses, encourages introspection and an appreciation of the intricate relationship between the self and the external environment.

Take this as an invitation to embrace self-love and mindfulness. Recognise the vastness of your internal landscapes and the potential for cultivating inner peace.

In times of both calm and upheaval, acknowledge the interconnectedness of your emotional experiences with the natural world.
