I'd just broken down and released so much pain right before this clip - tears I didn't know I still had in me.
For context: this was my first real exhale since one of the most painful and disorienting chapters of my life - a separation that unravelled my world. The kind of pain that doesn't just break your heart, it breaks your sense of self, your sense of safety, and your ability to trust.
For a long time after, I couldn't imagine trusting a man with my heart again. I'd started to believe that the kind of man who does the inner work - who has the courage to heal and take accountability, and shows up authentically and unmasked and as a grounded protector - was rare to the point of almost not existing.
Truth is that my hyper-independence didn't start with the separation. It was built slowly, over years. Years of over-functioning, of carrying more than was mine to carry, of keeping myself small and careful and constantly braced. I'd drifted so far from my own feminine energy - from softness, from receiving, from feeling safe enough to just be - that I'd almost forgotten she existed.
And then came 3 days of
@9dbreathwork in Bali, last year, and something in me finally cracked open in the most beautiful way. To every person who showed up authentically and true, thank you ❤️
@clarelouisejohnson_ thank you for tagging me here 🥹

@9dbreathwork - Most people don’t realise how much they’re carrying until their body finally says enough. Not in a dramatic way. Just in the quiet, constant way.
The chest that never fully opens, the sleep that never fully restores, the version of “fine” you’ve been performing for so long it started to feel true.
That’s not weakness. That’s what happens when things go unfelt for too long.
9D doesn’t ask you to talk through it, analyse it, or understand it. It works through the body. Through breath, sound, and the part of you that already knows what needs to move.
