What changed my life

What changed my life

What I found is called a Dieta - and through this, a way to discover my inner nature, gather strength and to bring it into my life.

If I were to try to find words about it: Love is definitely one of them, strength another one. More specific: the cleaning out of attachment and other concepts of my idea of love as well as extracting hardness from strength - to name just two examples of the vast teachings that has happened.

My first Sweatlodge

My first Sweatlodge

A prayer, old as a thousand of generations is spoken in the dark. A prayer to Mother Earth and Father Sky, to the ancestors and to everything what is, if standing, crawling, walking, flying - growing or dying. A prayer to bring us back, deep in the womb of mother earth to be purified and reborn. A prayer for all of us and our relations to be healed and to be in harmony with the cycles of life, with god and goddess nature and their beings in between.

Our ancestors believed in its healing properties for the heart - a tree mighty to even heal a broken heart. It was known as a protector against evil spells and its elixir drunken to ease into sleep (to enter the dream world).  It was seen as a door to the fairy kingdom and therefore a bad omen to cut down especially the wild grown, solitude trees. Like every rose it was as symbol and therefore medicine of showing the beauty of the flower (the heart), while being protected by the thorns.

My plant friends and I - where the wild beings roam

I love myself when I am with plants; when I slow down, listen and emerge myself into nature, into playing and exploring with my plant friends.

The relationships I have with plants have changed my life. It has turned my perspective upside down. It has taken me through my deepest nightmares, into my childlike wonder & joy and back into a true sense of honor, respect and responsibility - a true sense of what it means to be an adult for me.

They teach me everyday to return home to that part of me that I somehow forgot in my search for being a good, perfect grown up.
