Where are you currently extracting from yourself & your healing journey?

This is a hot topic in my field right now.

And its both strong and subtle in how it shows up in Life and on Transformative Journeys.

Subtle because it’s deeply rooted in the unconscious.

Strong because of the impact it holds within Women but also the world at large.

It lives within our relationship to the Feminine.

As a Collective

As Individuals

How we extract from ourselves

Others

The Earth.

When you begin to feel it & see it, you can’t unsee.

The official definition if you google extraction is:

‘The action of extracting something, especially using effort or force’.

Allow yourself a moment to FEEL into those words at what that invokes within you.

Where have you been extracting from your inner world and outer world?

I notice this so deeply in the earth medicines spaces but also, in turn ALL transformational spaces:

People arrive into these spaces with the mentality of ‘what can I get out of this experience’.

And I grieve every time I feel this in my system; a space that deserves deep reverence and respect is a mirror for the deep wounding we hold around the Mother and the Feminine.

For it is always an extraction from the Feminine, the Mother.

For when we meet anything with the mindset, we are also meeting ourselves from that space.

This need to take, take, take speaks to the deep rupture we hold as a collective around our relationship to earth, mother, body.

And it’s time to begin to rewrite this narrative.

Instead of what can you get out of yourself, this person, that person, this experience, that experience, how can you explore what it is to come into deeper connection;

With Self

With Other

Within Experiences

With Earth

You will be surprised at how you TRANSFORM your relationship to yourself, others and the world around you when you release this deeply unconscious pattern.

Begin to explore what extraction feels like in your Body. Once you begin to attune more deeply to it, you will begin to notice when you are doing it to yourself and others, as well as when you are on the receiving end of extraction.

It’s a powerful barometer to hold within yourself in all areas of life and how you relate to it.
