To Move without Judgement = Freedom
I walked into my latest somatic breathwork session carrying the kind of truth that hums under the skin. The guide asked questions that felt less like prompts and more like spells unlocking old doors. The first one hit like a blade: “I am consumed by my weakness physically and in relation to others.” That’s what rose from my body — not my mind. Raw. Unfiltered. Ancient. The breath intensified, and the next question came: “Where are you isolated?” The answer wasn’t about loss — it was about clarity. My awakening isolates me. Seeing my own patterns stretches me away from people who still live inside their narrow lenses. Then the breath built again — louder, hotter, more primal. The guide asked: “Who do you want to be?” And fear surged first: I want to live forever. Not in flesh — in vitality, in mobility, in the ability to live fully without being held down by age, weight, or hesitation. And right on the heels of that fear, the inner critic attacked — sharp, cruel, familiar. The voice that tells old stories about my body, my habits, my worth. The voice that tries to collapse my lens with the filter of shame. The voice that drowns out the ancient wisdom of my body trying to rise. Only after the fear, after the inner critic, after the collapse, did my truth finally land: Acceptance is the key to my freedom. Acceptance of all of me. Acceptance as rebellion. Downregulation softened everything. The next question arrived like a warm hand on the shoulder: “What do you love about yourself?” The truth rose clean: I endure, I cut through, my fire answers to no one. Only then — in the calmer rounds, as I watch the colors spiral into yin‑yang shapes as my system settles — did my future self step forward. Her message was simple and exact: I want to move without judgment from self or others. That was her truth. Her definition of freedom. To be the BAD ASS that I am — there is no fear to hold me back. Because fear is just the inner critic pretending to be prophecy. I rose from that session remembering something old and sharp:

@Sabber Ahamed such great relaxation but holding the innner critic back is full time job sometimes. But in the after glow of the session my inner critic fades away and I have true clarity

@Sabber Ahamed depends on what the universe puts before me and how much space I gain during a session
Who Am I Really?
As I focus on my breath more and more, moving away from the judgments and analysis of the head, I notice that I need fewer and fewer words to describe myself. The breath has become my safe haven, as it has for Buddhists and mystics for centuries before me. I need very little thinking at all when I am with the breath, because life in all its glory reveals itself to me without any need for commentary. I never needed to define myself. I never needed to keep updating versions of myself. Sure, I did need to release old, outdated ideas of who I thought I was: the victimised, the abused, the slighted, the belittled, the wrongly perceived. But who perceived wrongly in the first place, other than my mind? All of that can go. I do not have to fight for myself anymore. I am life itself, expressing itself as life in a particular form. That form shifts and changes over time, but that does not change who I am fundamentally. I Am still life itself. It was only thinking that separated me from life and isolated me from other forms of life expressing themselves differently from me, but they too are still fundamentally life itself. There really is no separation between us, except in thought, of course. My new mantra now is slow down - thinking - and breathe; or more accurately let life breathe and express through you. With love ❤️

The places we hide between the little white lies
Let’s talk about the little white lies we tell others and ourselves to escape a perceived humiliation that is just a story in our head. Not a real humiliation. Not an actual event. Just a story — a script we wrote, rehearsed, and then reacted to as if it were truth. We tell these lies because we think they protect others. We tell them because we think they protect us. But really, it’s all the same protection — shielding ourselves from their reaction, their disappointment, their imagined judgment. It’s self‑protection wearing a polite little costume. These lies are defense mechanisms dressed up as courtesy. They let us sidestep discomfort, sidestep accountability, sidestep the sting of being seen without our armor. Owning your own choices is scary — of course it is. But it’s also where our power lives. Every time we dodge a truth, we hand our power over. We hand it over willingly in hopes of finding safety — but what really happens is the story in our heads takes over, and we hide behind it, hoping it will keep us safe. Then there is the constant dismissing of things that bother us? That doesn’t make us evolved. It makes us resentful. We swallow the truth our truth until it turns sharp. At some point, those little exaggerations cross the line into lies. The line blurs. And as it blurs, we lose ourselves — not dramatically, but slowly, quietly. We start living inside the story in our head, the program, the pattern, the social conditioning that tells us to be agreeable, easy, unbothered. It validates itself while burying your wants and desires under layers of “it’s fine.” And when you live like that long enough, you don’t lose your integrity — you lose your clarity. You lose access to what you truly want because the lie has been choosing for you. We don’t lie because we’re deceitful. We lie because we’re scared. But it is in the truth that we will find grace and infinate space to be our true selves. And meeting yourself doesn’t require perfection — just honesty and a willingness to stop hiding from a humiliation that never existed.
