🇬🇧As I said in the last post, at the beginning of this year I decided to continue investing in my career in Brazil. What I didn’t expect was that in the middle of this journey, I would reconnect with my country in such a special way.

I experienced for the first time two very powerful self-knowledge processes: holotropic breathing and forest medicine consecration. It was a deep realisation with scenes from my past, transcendental scenes, challenging issues in my life, my personality. Still, I found some tips on how to care for them in my daily life. Because the biggest challenge isn’t to bring our issues to consciousness, but to truly transform them in our daily lives, in the daily practices and micropolitics of life.

The whole experience was designed to prepare for/integrate with the group, the experiences and their integration. It was a very powerful, potent, and memorable encounter in my life. I left the experience with the feeling that I was barefoot stepping on wet grass, as if I felt in my body reconnecting with the power that is my country: so big, so beautiful, so powerful and with so many issues to be taken care of. Our ancestors, whether from the forest or those who arrived forcibly on slave ships, showed us that there is no other way but nature (both physical and divine). I honor the forest people, black people and their orixás in my physical and spiritual journey. As shared at that meeting: “After 500 years of insults, they love us back.”

Thank you very much to all the members of the Phaneros Institute, Leopardo Yawabane and Makari Huni Kui (indigenous people of JordĂŁo, Acre) and to all of the SĂ­tio Velho Farm, for carefully organizing this event.
