Ciara Sherlock read this poem that she wrote during the ritual we did at the retreat. The last line sounds like a mantra. Nomads of consciousness – enjoy.
You are here, now,
Nothing to achieve, nowhere to go,
The tie is perfect,
We’re here to hold
Look around,
At the miracle we’ve created,
Breathe in, feel alive,
Celebrate it
With strangers in a sacred space,
Being brave, being true,
Surrender to the mystery,
Allow you to be you
You have stepped up,
Now step within,
Open up to yourself,
Let expansion begin
This moment has been unfolding forever,
There’s nothing else to prepare,
Dive deep into experience,
Delve deep if you dare
These medicines are teachers,
There’s no need for tension,
Absorb what you can,
Pay close attention
Pain, joy, fear, bliss,
Is some of what you may see
Embrace all, be curious,
Let go, let in, let be.
