When we talk about boundaries, the first thing that comes to mind is often the overstepping boundaries by excessive control. We may remember mom who makes us eat spinach and does not let us leave the table until we have eaten it all; the teacher who kicks us out of the classroom; children who poke fun of us or a tougher boy who pulls our hair or steals a ball on the street. There is a presence and power that imposes itself and oversteps the... read more

A boundary is where I end and you begin… where you end and I begin.
A country is a place where people of a similar consciousness live, forming a collective, that has its own customs, language, culture, values and prevailing beliefs. Beyond their homeland’s border some other country begins.
History textbooks are generally compiled from the dates when wars between states/nations/tribes began and when they, fortunately, ended. If it... read more

...we stumble over them, untangle them, stretch or tighten them, change and erase them, make new ones - we rejoice in them, we suffer because of them, we meet and part; we make love or wars, destroy and create.
Ouch, it already sounds very complicated.
And what are the boundaries, really?
According to the dictionary "a boundary is a real or imaginary line that marks the edge or limit of something". As things stand,... read more

The sense of grounded uplifting was felt in the big room where about sixty students were giving and receiving healings at the Barbara Brennan School of Healing. We were in the midst of our fourth year of training, working on our hara and core star dimensions of being. I have just finished the healing and moved quietly away from the student on the table. One of our instructors passed by, observing us as we worked, soundlessly moving through the... read more

I was sitting on the flat roof of the little house, in the midst of the rainforest. Above my head was vast, dark, but clear sky decorated with millions of stars. They all felt so close as if I could touch them just by stretching out my arm. The huge cosmos was all around, enveloping me in a blanket of imagination and dreams, the blanket that was about to take me to the far lands, the ones we listened the stories about…those stories that begin... read more

After just flipping through some titles in the news today I felt so much injustice, fear, conflict, lies, stilling and treachery that is going on in the world scene. There was so much I wanted to express in the moment: my anger on the people in position that kill, steal and lie, my desperateness when it comes to human rights and economical issues (especially when you see somebody getting filthy wealthier by every minute of the day, and some... read more

“What is so wrong with me? Everything I do seems to be wrong. There is something wrong with what I say, what I am, what I do….there is even something wrong with my love. I seem to love people on a wrong way” said the woman in front of me while tightening her throat and chin trying to control the emerging emotions.
O boy, didn’t I understand her, hear her, didn’t I resonate with her? When we have this type of wounding, it seems that... read more

What is love? Love is when someone believes in you, even when you made mistake, even when you didn’t fulfill expectations, even when that someone is not agreeing with your life orientations and choices. Love is when there is no reason for loving, when there is no motivation, when you are accepted just the way you are. Despite the fact that we might have disappointed someone, that someone is not rejecting us. Love is the state of being. It... read more

„Desires are one thing, but possibilities are something else" was a sentence often heard from older members of our families who have gone through the horrors of the WWII. Poverty, inability and helplessness have imprinted themselves on belief system and attitude towards life as well as on the third chakra, as in individuals, so in the entire generation.

"How do you feel?" was the question asked by the acupuncturists that a friend took me to in the late '90s.
My puzzled expression probably inspired him to ask the same question again: "How do you feel? “. To be honest, the repeated question made me even more confused ... "how do I feel? “, I repeated to myself many times. But I couldn’t get the answer. Long silence between two persons, one who expects a response and the other who is totally... read more
