Dear marla,
This is such a special time in my life. There has been so many
openings
and expansions that I wish to share with you. Within this year, I have
married the most beautiful heartfelt man and became pregnant soon
afterward. These changes have allowed me to reflect on all that I have
learned in regards to love, relationship and tantra. With each new
experience in my life, I am noticing how my ideas of love are expanding.
With my marriage in its first year, I have found the
stability of a relationship where my love can flow freely. This has
allowed me to discover new layers of vulnerability
that I can safely explore. It has taught me the tantric and reiki
principle of love without expectation. I am learning how to keep my
heart open regardless of pain and anger. This is so profound, because I
realize that when I close my heart it ultimately hurts me the most.
Being
pregnant, has allowed me to embody my true womanly nature. I feel the
softness and quietness that my soul hungers for; along with fierce
primal energy that often explodes through me. As I joyfully accept the new role of Mother,
I have found that I am mourning my old identity as the single,
independent woman. This healthy letting go is reminding me that I am not
any 1 identity. I embody all aspects of womanhood...
This has
prompted the questioning, "what is it that connects us all as women?"
Married, single, with child or not, young or old............ We are soft
and we are fierce. We are compassionate and strong. We are intuitive
and deeply connected to mother earth. We are emotional and nurturing. And the list goes on and on. No
matter where we are in our journey as woman, we have a constant
opportunity to embrace our feminine and to support the blossoming of
women around us.
Tantric practices have supported me greatly
during this time. I am remembering when I first found tantra and started
studying, I remember the excitement of the freedom to express my
sexuality and sensuality. It was scary and liberating at the same time.
I remember how loving it felt and how much I enjoyed the idea of
sacred sexuality. And through this study, I felt my heart shine and
pleasure grow.
I desire to share this with you before I
retreat to Kauai to give birth. This is a potent time to gather as women
and a ripe opportunity to hold space and support each other. In my
upcoming Women's Tantra Class we will explore the authentic sensual
nature that makes us women. I long to be surrounded by my sisters and to
create a field where we can embrace and embody all aspects of our
magnificence.
Please join me~
Love, Marla
