"To be an Earth Pilgrim is to revere Nature as our sacred home, and see all our life as a sacred journey to become at one with ourselves, with others and with Nature." Satish Kumar

Estrangement can feel heavy, not always in visible ways. Sometimes it’s carrying the invisible load of emotional labour, vigilance, the holding of boundaries, the weight of conditioning, society’s beliefs and expectations, the strength it takes to maintain distance, or to stay with complex feelings.

There is often something deeply vulnerable in sharing our voice, not just the words we speak but the sound of us; A breath that carries a note, the lift in our chest when we feel seen and heard, reverberations in the bones when we are able to let something out that’s been held in for too long.

Certain practices arrive in our lives at moments when we may least expect them but may really need them, those little anchors during times of overwhelm, transition, or heartbreak. For me, EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) tapping first showed up about twelve years ago during a season of life that was very challenging, uncertain and painful.
