AWAKEN YOUR HEART
befriending the power of fear

5Rhythms, Heartbeat level*
led by Lucija

Just like the rhythm of flowing is the entry point into the wave, a rhythm in which we meet our resistances, our reluctance to move, so the is the fear, in a way, a gateway into our heart. Just like when we give breath and attention to our feet grounding and inviting movement into the whole body, when we learn to breathe through, dance with and ground our fear, we make space for the movement of our whole heart.

Not beacuse fear is the most important emotion, but because we’re so often not only strangers to our heart, but also afraid of its different expressions. So in order to be able to access the full potential of our heart, it is crucial that we get to know the energetic of the fear, build our capacity to experience it, be in its presence, and finally let go of it – thus befriending the power that lies within it.

For fear, like all the other emotions, has a sacred task, a valuable role in our life. And our job is, instead of fighting, denying or overriding our fear, to make the relationship with fear a friendly, supportive and a nourishing one.
