Defenses & Our Animal Nature

Every animal in nature has defenses. ⁣⁣

Without them perhaps we wouldn’t exist in nature. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I have come to find these claws and fangs necessary to our human embodiment process.⁣⁣ ? ??????? ?? ?? ?? ??????? ??? ??? ?????? ???? ?? ????? ??? ?????????? ??? ????????????, ???? ??? ????????? ???.⁣⁣

We forget that a thread that holds us together is of animal essence and a portal for reconnecting with creation.⁣⁣

They have turned into internalized defense mechanisms that react to anything that feels threatening. Is this good? Yes, it is. ⁣⁣
Many of us wouldn’t have survived our childhood or youth, or toxic relationships were it not for these animal aspects to step in and protect us. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Yet, they too must be restored to their right place. We do not need to walk around like wounded animals aggressive and attacking everything we think might hurt us.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
But we do. ⁣⁣

We have forgotten that we have the power to anchor a core stability for all polarities. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
We have forgotten to trust our intuition, to cultivate our environmental awareness, to listen beneath the noise.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
We have forgotten that this dance within us, allows us to come into coherence and co-creative power with our physical reality and therefore, the natural world. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Their dance and coherence regulates our nervous system and enlivens our endocrine system.⁣⁣

When colonizers came across the peoples living in their wild nature, they labeled their way of life as savage. They couldn’t understand the language of the wild, of primal noise, the language of co-existence and interdependence. And like most of us still do, they wanted to get rid of what they couldn’t understand, they wanted to own and conquer.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
They beat, schooled and indoctrinated our animal nature into submission. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
However, let us not forget that this very essence is connected to our primordial innocence and an inheritance granted to us by our Earth Mother.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
This inherent human nature can’t be erased from the flesh, in fact its very alive, in all of its distorted forms. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
One of the first things I aim to awaken within my clients is that very awareness and remembrance.⁣ We are not seeking to get rid of or even transcend, or power our way into conquest or submission of ANYTHING. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
We are on a quest to accept, to embrace and to remember. To inhabit our animal body, our feeling body, to awaken our higher mind.⁣ To live as an embodiment of love. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
We will understand some things, and some are so vast and wild we can only feel them, and in this acceptance the paradox emerges. ⁣
