Does love exist beyond needs, she asked?
It depends if you’re willing to stand in your Sovereign being, came the reply. If you show up as your best self and take responsibility for your own needs, you won’t require your romantic partner to care take you.
But why do I always have to show up as my best self when my partner is supposed to love me no matter what?
Have you noticed your own energy and expectations when you bring your problems to your partner?
Well, yes I go to him because I need support, when I feel like I’m not powerful enough to handle a problem myself.
And every time he aids you in resolving the problem do you feel stronger or more dependent?
Well when I come from that place I suppose I feel weaker.
And once you’ve done that many times, can you distinguish whether you keep coming back to him because you need him or because you love him?
Well, I know I love him but I also need him.
And how are you discerning between those two when they are so entangled?
I suppose I can’t.
Precisely…showing up authentically with your partner does not mean handing over the privilege of making your own dreams come true. Once you release needing validation and support you’ll have a period where you don’t know if you love your partner anymore because what you thought love felt like has actually been need. Allow yourself the spaciousness to be still and listen to how your heart spirals and if your cells move towards your partner or away once you’ve removed your needs. If your cells all feel magnetically attracted to your partner and your heart engorges in a pleasant glow, you’ll know you truly love him. If your cells feel magnetically repulsed and your heart feels bland when you’re near him, you’ll know that your relationship has been founded on trauma bonding and it’s time to release it.

If you feel like it is difficult for you to integrate everything that is happening and changing at such a fast pace in your life or feeling anxious on a regular basis listen in to Shanta’s tips on how to stay grounded and why at this moment in history being grounded is perhaps one of the most important things to help you focus and have energy for all the activities you are guided to do.

INTERVIEW C WILSON MELONCELLI
Wilson has an amazing way of making dense concepts seem extremely simple. For example he says we need to find a balance between tension and relaxation to be in a state of flow and he uses the analogy of turning on the shower and making sure you have enough hot water and enough cold water so that the temperature is perfect. Learn how 3 minutes in the morning and 3 minutes at night can bring you more easily and frequently into the Flow.

INTERVIEW DR. EDYTHE HEUS
Edythe says that Flow seems to be more a state of mind, surrender a state of heart. When heart and mind join together, that is where they converge. If you would like to improve your physical performance and experience how mental and spiritual integration follow, join us for a little while ;)

INTERVIEW ROSANNA KALIABETSOSRozy explains how we choose activities that keep us locked in the paradigm that there is not enough time and then gives us tools to move out of this conditioning. If you feel like life moves too fast for you to keep up with it she explains how we are powerful beyond our understanding and actually when you slow down you can rearrange everything.
