Such generosity from you @Derek Conorton offering those gifts free of charge. Thank you! It means a lot for me at the moment as my next step is becoming conscious of money energy. I do recognize the abundance in my life but... I still have got some blockages to clear specifically about money. I'm currently working on it through several approaches, one of them being self-inquiry but... to be completely honest with you, I haven't quite grasped it yet. I know that I need to change my behaviour towards it and stop spending it before it arrives. My intention is to hold a safe space within myself for money to land before I make other financial commitments.

Hi Alex, we share the same name root , "the defenders of Humanity" <3 What I found in my own path is that curiosity is one of the greatest gifts. It keeps pulling you up into the unknown so it can become known. When my curiosity drops, I get the cue that is time to change again... So I'm looking forward to spark that curiosity over here with you all.

Hi Frankie! Happy to connect with you! From what I read from you, just that line "Because, I know what I do want when I know what I don’t want." means a lot. And what a freedom it is, isn't it? Would you say, some of it is due to maturity? I feel, doing the work of course, but also crossing that 50y line was a gift. :-D

@Derek Conorton thank you for the genuine interest :-) I'll go back a bit and start by what led me into quitting it. I've noticed that after spending time on social media, I'd get the dopamine but feel very frustrated afterwards. It is as when you get a sugar rush but remain hungry sort of feeling. From there I started noticing what was driving me into the apps, and asking "what am I really looking for here that it is not providing for me?". My direct answer was connection, some form of true connection, be it human connection, connection with the moment... I was looking for a deeper connection. It was after that it hit me: "I've got to quit this behaviour and replace it for something that can really and deeply satisfy me". So I've deleted the apps from my phone and for the several days... and I mean it (!) I found myself getting the phone and staring at it and feeling the withdrawl. Slowly slowly I redirected it to the thing I was really looking for - taking deep breaths and reconnecting back within myself. Other times, I went to visit a friend in the village, other times made a cup of tea and contemplated the moment.

@Kelly Peterson thank you for your message Kelly and I'm honoured to connect. The question you ask resonates with me a lot. For me it has helped and still helps in any circumstance before allowing a reaction to come through immediately to feel in the body where it is coming from. And then allow it to become a conscious action instead of simply reacting. I found the authentic expressions leave me feeling fulfilled and content in a calm way.
