Walking slowly across the room
Jun 17, 2025
Right back from the retreat, I'm noticing that I find it challenging being in Sweden. Not as in a way of attacking my home country; it has its merits on many levels. But because there's a disconnect from soul, mysticism and a sheer sense of aliveness here, which is how I breathe and make sense of myself. I'm reminded why I left Sweden, but I also know why I've created Awakening Feminine Leadership. Because being around other women, from Sweden, and the rest of the world, has been the practice of coming home to Eros, no matter where we are physically located.
Last week, I wrote about the need for magic. Which is the same place where Eros comes from, especially Divine Eros, but also Soul, and mysticism. When we feel our sensuality, like walking slowly across a room, or in the warm sand, with awareness of our body's movements, noticing the heat of our skin, the contact with mother earth through the souls of our feet, we relax, and suddenly something shifts. We become embedded in magic, in Eros, and we experience the felt territory of the soul, no matter where we are. We are here, we are alive, and we are awake. Which is what I need to relearn on a daily basis. This is the practice, the path, and how we build devotion to life. To lean in, say yes to what's here and to walk slowly across the room, being so devoted to what's here, that everything turns to magic.
How do you experience your soul's longing right now? And how does sensuality remind you of who you are?
