Living in Limbo / A Space to Be

Come join a live class: https://drarielleschwartz.com/vagus-n...

Just returning from my trip to Bhutan where I was on a spiritual pilgrimage. As we engaged in Loving Kindness and Compassion practices, this was a journey of releasing that which no longer served—the stories, beliefs, and behaviors. This was all in service of creating space for something new to emerge.

When we let go of something old, we create space for a more authentic relationship with our Self—the true, the wise, the present day expressions of who we really are.

The space between is a kind of limbo…it is a vulnerable phase.
When we let go of knowing who we are…we need to allow the new, unformed, self to arise, there is an inherent protection needed during this phase. We make space to not be rushed; we don’t force what is coming in. We pause, rather than jumping into new roles or identities.

We are in a space in Between, we need A space to BE.

Physically, in this class we play with transitions…the space in between.

Card from the Post-Traumatic Growth Deck: Living in Limbo

Living in limbo, you stand in the transitional space between the person you have been and the person you are becoming. This can feel unsettling, indeterminate, and undefined. You cannot see what lies ahead. You might feel frightened in the midst of change. However, transitional spaces are full of potential. That feeling of uncertainty is actually getting you ready for an updated version of yourself and your life. You may feel as though life is pulling you backward. Like the arrow held by the bow, life is actually preparing you to fly forward. What or who helps you trust the unknown?

Poem from today

Not a One
By Mark Nepo

A funny thing happened on my way
to being awake. I outgrew all my masks.
Not a one fit. Not the one I called my
past. Not the one I called my dream.
Not the one I wore when sad. Or the
one I wore when trying to be happy.
I saved them all like favorite shirts
I thought would fit when I became
myself again. But that was a mask, too.
Then, just the other day, I was more
present than lost, and had to put down
the mask I called my story.
And today, a gust of light filled my face.
I felt it on my skin and in my soul.
Now, anything is possible.
