Why I’m Choosing to Reschedule Today’s Somatic Healing Session
Two hours from now, I was meant to guide our Somatic Healing session.
Instead, I am writing this.
And perhaps this is the most honest introduction I could offer.
The work I facilitate is often described as helping more of life come online within us.
More aliveness.More feeling.More truth.More capacity.More access to ourselves.
But there is another side to that conversation that interests me just as much.
What happens when we become sensitive enough to notice when something is not online?
Today, after several days of deeply holding space for others, I noticed something simple:
My body was not asking me to prepare.It was not asking me to push through.It was not asking me to perform.
It was asking for rest.
Many of us have been trained to interpret that moment as an obstacle to overcome.
A test of discipline.
A sign that we should try harder.
But in my experience, some of the deepest healing begins when we stop treating our own inner signals as interruptions.
When we stop negotiating with what is true.
So today I am choosing not to override that signal.
Not because I don’t care about this gathering.
Precisely because I do.
The quality I value most in this work is presence.
And presence cannot be manufactured.
It can only be met.
One of the great paradoxes of life is that we often imagine freedom will arrive through greater control.
Yet many of the most meaningful changes in my own life have emerged through listening rather than forcing, through trust rather than management, through cooperation with life rather than negotiation against it.
This is not always comfortable.
But it is often intelligent.
So rather than meeting you tonight from a place of depletion, I would rather meet you soon from a place of genuine availability.
In the meantime, I would love to leave you with a simple question:
What are you currently overriding that life keeps gently asking you to notice?
Not fix.
Not optimize.
Not improve.
Just notice.
Sometimes a single honest moment of noticing creates more change than weeks of effort.
Thank you for your understanding, your patience, and for being here.
I am looking forward to meeting you properly.
