The Goddess of Justice looks directly into your eyes. From her descends a light that illuminates everything. In front of her is the scale, balancing the positive and the negative, the masculine and the feminine. Above her appear the Sun and the Moon… and behind her, the spirit of the eagle watches from the sky.

Welcome to the week of Justice.

A week that invites us on a journey to clean our vision and find clarity.

And the first question she asks us is:

Are you really seeing the truth of what is happening in your life?

What is actually happening.

Seeing the Truth of What Is Happening

Many times we enter situations of confusion and stagnation not because there are no solutions, but because we do not want to see the real problem.

We cover it up, justify it, avoid it. We distort the vision we have of ourselves, of the world or of others so that we do not have to step into the mud and recognize what is really happening.

This happens a lot in relationships.

You have probably heard someone say:

“I have just realized that I don’t know who my partner is.”

Or:

“I didn’t know who my partner really was.”

But many times the signs had been there for a very long time.

We simply justify all of them because we want to maintain a certain perception of that person, because we want to believe they are the ideal person, because we do not want to argue, because we do not want to face the problem, or because recognizing the truth would force us to do something about it.

And many times confusion appears precisely because of this.

Because we deny the truth.

Because we do not want to look at it and deal with what is really happening.

So the first call of Justice is very simple:

Look. Look at what is there. Look at what is really happening in your life.

Responsibility

And from there comes the second great teaching of Justice:

Responsibility.

There is a beautiful line from A Course in Miracles that says:

“Every thought produces form at some level.”

I love it because it reminds us of something we constantly forget.

What we think, what we feel, what we say, what we do… and also what we do not do… creates consequences.

All of it is an expression.

It is like a song, a melody that we are constantly playing in the world.

And then that music brings things.

It brings people, situations, experiences, opportunities, conflicts.

And many times, when something happens, we say:

“Bad luck.”

“What a coincidence.”

“It was an accident.”

But Justice takes us directly to cause and effect.

What comes into our life is connected to the music we are playing.

Always.

What we think, what we do, what we tolerate, what we avoid, what we repeat, what we choose and what we leave unchosen sets causes in motion.

And those causes produce effects.

So the next question Justice asks is:

Are you understanding that what happens in your life is connected to the way you live?

What Is the Real Cause?

And here comes another important part.

It is not enough to know that cause and effect exist.

We have to understand what the real cause actually is.

Because very often we get that completely wrong.

Imagine you have a car and you want to avoid accidents or prevent it from breaking down.

So you spend your time cleaning the seats, vacuuming the floor, cleaning the dashboard and making it look beautiful.

And you think: now it’s fine.

But if you want the car to work properly, you need to look at the engine, the oil, the tyres, the brakes…

There are other rules governing the car.

And we do exactly the same thing with our lives.

We want to feel full of vitality, joy and motivation… but we do not see the connection between how we feel and the fact that we have spent years postponing our dreams or what we truly want to do.

We want a different relationship… but we keep acting from the same patterns.

We want something to change… but we keep feeding exactly the same causes.

Cause and effect.

So the question becomes a little deeper:

What is the real cause of what you are experiencing right now?

The Eagle’s Perspective

This is also where the spirit of the eagle comes in.

The ability to rise a little higher and look at our life with perspective.

To see the connections.

To see how one decision led to another. How a way of living created a certain consequence. How what we are doing today is building what we will experience tomorrow.

Decision

And finally we come to the last call of Justice.

Decision.

Because if you can see the truth, if you can recognize your responsibility and if you can understand the connections of cause and effect that brought you here… then you can truly choose differently.

If you have several paths in front of you, Justice invites you to place them on the scale.

Look at what is really there.

Look at how you arrived here.

Look at what cause you are setting in motion with each option.

And then decide.

Because if we want real change, we have to introduce a different cause.

We cannot keep doing the same thing again and again and expect our life to transform.

We have to change something in the music we are playing.

Four Questions for the Week of Justice

So this week Justice leaves us with four questions:

Are you seeing the truth of what is happening in your life?

Are you realizing that what is happening is connected to the way you live?

Do you understand the cause-and-effect connections that have brought you here?

And now that you can see it all… what do you decide? How can you choose in a way that brings real change instead of repeating the same thing again and again?

This week is about working with our vision.

Cleaning it.

Bringing truth and clarity.

And above all, understanding our life in connection with the way we are living it.

That is probably one of the most important connections we can make.

I wish you a beautiful week, that clarity comes to you, and that you have the courage to look at it the way the Goddess looks.

With all the light and all the will in the world.

Happy Week of Justice!!

In the image, we see a skeletal figure holding a scythe, standing in what looks like an old cemetery or a place in ruins. Around it, we can see the remains of the past… a broken sword, a broken crown, a broken clock. Everything that once had a form, an identity, a purpose or a certain power has reached its end.

And this is what the card represents… the complete ending of something in our life that we were identified with.

In existence, things are constantly appearing and disappearing. Parts of us are born, they grow, they transform and eventually they fade away. But what really creates the experience of death is not simply that something disappears… it is that something we were identified with disappears. Something we believed was part of us, something that helped us understand who we were.

When I picked up this card, what I felt in this space, in this field that we all create together, is that some processes of death are already happening. Some things are already beginning to disappear, to fade away or to reach their conclusion… and I feel that this is why the card has come to us today.

1. Death Is Inevitable

The first thing to understand is that death is inevitable.

This experience can happen internally or externally, but of course, we usually notice it much more when it happens outside of us. A relationship ends, a friendship breaks, a job disappears, a chapter closes, something material is lost… or perhaps an identity that we have carried for years can no longer continue.

When something like this happens, many times we blame ourselves or we blame someone else. We think that something went wrong, that somebody made a mistake or that things should have happened differently.

And of course, sometimes a situation can be repaired. We can apologise, change our behaviour, talk to each other or find a solution. But when something has truly reached the moment when it needs to end… it ends. When something really needs to leave, it leaves.

Not necessarily because somebody failed, and not necessarily because you did something wrong… but because its cycle is complete.

Death is existential. It is everywhere in creation. Everything is born, everything changes and everything eventually disappears or transforms into something else.

And it also has a purpose.

Even when we cannot see that purpose, even when we do not understand why something is happening, and even when it feels painful, unfair or completely confusing… there is still a purpose behind it. Maybe an important purpose, maybe a higher purpose, maybe something that we will only understand much later.

So this is the first invitation of the card… to look at what is ending and contemplate whether you can see it as something inevitable, as part of existence, and as something that may have a purpose even if you cannot see it yet.

2. Something Ends So That Something New Can Begin

The second thing is that Death always comes to close something so that something new can open.

And this is something that can really help us when we are moving through a process of loss… remembering that something new is coming. Maybe we cannot see it yet, maybe we cannot imagine it, maybe we are still too focused on what is leaving… but something new is coming.

And it is even possible that this new thing is something that we ourselves have asked for.

Many times, we ask for a new life, a new love, a new connection, a new awakening, a new direction or a new version of ourselves. We ask for change… but we do not always understand what change really requires.

Because for something new to enter, something old normally has to leave. There has to be space… living space, emotional space, energetic space, existential space.

Maybe what is leaving your life right now is creating exactly the space needed for what you have been asking for.

Sometimes we ask for a new dawn, but we resist the night that comes before it.

So when you are moving through one of these processes, try to place part of your attention on what could come next. Not to escape the pain, and not to force yourself to be positive… but simply to remember that this ending is not the whole story.

What could come after this? What new life is trying to open in front of me? What different, exciting, expansive or unexpected experience could be on its way? What am I making space for?

Death does not only announce an ending… it also prepares the ground for a new birth.

This also connects very deeply with the journey we have just experienced in Tibet…

In the Tibetan tradition, there is a word for this space between an ending and a new beginning. That word is bardo.

A bardo is an intermediate state… a passage, a space of transition between one form of existence and another. The best-known bardo is the passage between death and rebirth, and it gives its name to one of the most famous texts of Tibetan Buddhism, the Bardo Thödol, commonly known in the West as The Tibetan Book of the Dead.

The teachings of the bardos help us understand how to navigate these transitions with greater awareness and balance… so that we do not become completely lost or trapped in what has disappeared, and can gradually find our way towards the other shore, towards what comes next.

And although these teachings speak very directly about physical death and rebirth, I feel that the same wisdom can also be applied to the many smaller deaths we experience throughout life.

When a relationship ends, when an identity falls away, when a chapter closes or when something we depended on disappears… we also enter a kind of bardo.

The old life is no longer there, but the new one has not fully appeared yet.

And perhaps this is one of the most difficult parts of any transformation… learning how to remain inside that uncertainty without trying to return immediately to the past, and without forcing the future to arrive before it is ready.

Our recent journey through Tibet reminded me how important these spaces of transition are in spiritual traditions. Transformation is not only about allowing something to die, and it is not only about celebrating what will be born next…

It is also about learning how to cross the space in between.

3. Make Space for the Pain and Confusion

The third thing is that many parts of our being resist death.

Because of our conditioning, because of karmic reasons and because of the way we have learned to survive and hold on to things, there are parts of us that do not understand this reality. Parts that cannot relax, cannot trust and cannot simply allow things to happen.

Because of this, even when the process is necessary, even when it has a purpose and even when it is preparing something new… it can still hurt a lot. It can bring confusion, fear, anger, sadness and a lot of emotional intensity.

And all of this is normal too.

We need to make space for it. You do not need to feel good immediately, you do not need to understand everything, and you do not need to move on quickly. You do not need to transform the pain into wisdom on the first day.

Sometimes you simply need to feel it, breathe, observe and allow the process to happen.

The emotions that appear do not necessarily mean that something is wrong. They may simply be part of the natural process of letting go.

And this card speaks very strongly about this… allowing, surrendering, accepting and observing everything that is happening inside of us and around us while the transformation takes place.

So this week, I invite you to observe whether there is something dying in your life. Maybe a relationship, a friendship, a chapter, a belief, an identity, an expectation, a habit or an old way of seeing yourself… something that no longer has the same life it once had.

And perhaps you can ask yourself… Is this inevitable? Is it possible that this is nobody’s fault? Is it possible that its cycle is simply complete? Is it possible that this ending has a purpose? Is it possible that it is creating space for something new?

And is it possible that everything I am feeling is simply part of the process… not a sign that something is wrong, but a sign that I am letting go?

If there is nothing clearly ending in your life right now, you can still work with this card. You can remember things that have already left your life, things that once felt impossible to lose and things that changed you… or you can contemplate the things you are afraid of losing.

Because sooner or later, everything changes. Everything transforms. Everything we hold on to will eventually take another form.

And when that happens, remember… there will be a purpose. There may be pain, confusion and a journey of great intensity, but at the end of that journey, you will find yourself standing at the gates of a new life.

Death can look like a frightening card, but in reality, it is one of the cards with the greatest potential in the whole deck. It takes us to the places where the deepest transformation can happen… where old identities can fall away, where new decisions can be made and where a completely new life can begin.

The chat is open for anything you feel called to share… and we are here to support each other through these processes.

May you have a beautiful week of death and rebirth

This card speaks of the paths that lead to success in the material world, or in the financial world.

It is a very good sign when we are beginning a new project, so if you are at the start of something, or if an opportunity appears on your path these days, observe it.

Also, today is the new moon, which is also a good moment to begin new projects.

This is also a card that invites us to embrace the material aspects of the path, to contemplate them, to take them into account, and to define them based on an idea of success.

What is material success for you?

These are the 2 key aspects this card brings.

It is time to open paths that move through the MATERIAL and lead to SUCCESS.

Sometimes we set goals that are abstract, or that stay on the level of emotions, thought, or the mind.

Learning new ideas…

Connecting better with ourselves…

Managing our mood better…

Feeling better…

But this card speaks of paths that transform something tangible in your life: taking a trip, finding the house of your dreams, moving to a new city, transforming your body and getting fit, learning how to fish… or how to fly planes… you name it.

Something that transforms real things in your life.

And then they have another aspect: they are paths that must have SUCCESS as their destination.

Meaning… it is not enough to transform material things and that's it… you have to feel them as a success!!!

Sometimes we begin paths that do not have success as their destination.

We begin them out of inertia, fear, habit, influence, to have more comfort or more ease…

But we do not feel the spark of SUCCESS calling us from the other side!!

Can you feel success at the end of the path you are walking? Can you see it, even if only as a possibility, as a potential?

When the card comes reversed:

It indicates that we are avoiding dealing with the material aspects, or that we are denying our potential for success.

Questions to contemplate:

What do you feel when you imagine having success and material abundance?

Does something in you expand and feel inspired? Or do doubts, worries, second thoughts appear, and the path becomes blurry?

I know many of you are sensitive and spiritual people who feel the call to know yourselves and love yourselves…

And you may tell me… but why so much work with the material and with success if what I truly want is to accept myself and be myself??

In these material adventures, whether they lead you to external success as you conceive it, or whether they lead you somewhere else, they give you the experiences your soul needs in order to awaken and become free.

That is why we have a body, freedom, and energy. To experience ourselves through this life.

This week is for MOVING in the DIRECTION of what MATERIAL SUCCESS means to you.

And also for CONTEMPLATING whether there is something blocking you and stopping you from doing it. Creating awareness and observing it without judgment.

In the end, it is not about whether you get what you want externally…

It is about the experiences you have on the path.

Buuuut the experiences only come when you go after what you want without holding back.

A path that promises you a treasure. Will you walk it?

X marks the spot.

Happy treasure week.

Option A: You explode. Something insignificant happens—your partner leaves the fridge open, a glass breaks, someone cuts you off in traffic—and suddenly, you unleash a nuclear reaction. You scream, you attack, you destroy the moment. And ten minutes later? You feel guilt, shame, and the weight of having damaged a connection you care about.

Option B: You implode. You swallow it. You play the “good girl” or the “nice guy.” You smile, you say “it’s okay,” and you keep the peace. But inside? You are burning. And that fire doesn’t vanish; it settles into your neck, turns into a migraine, creates a knot in your stomach, or becomes chronic anxiety.

For years, I lived in Option B.

I was 25. I was an engineer. I had the perfect partner, the nice apartment, the “successful” life. Externally, everything was perfect. Internally? I was a ghost. I couldn’t enjoy any of it because I was living a life designed to please everyone but myself. I was faking my desires, faking my decisions, and faking my happiness.

And that fake peace was eating me alive.

If you are reading this, you probably know that sensation: the heaviness of unexpressed truth.

Today, I want to invite you on a journey to understand the mechanics of this heaviness—and how to finally release it without destroying your life.

The River vs. The Swamp: The Mechanics of Rot

Why does an emotion turn toxic?

In its origin, emotion is energy. It is pure. It is Water.

Think of a river. When water flows fresh and fast, it is clean. You can drink from it. It is life.

This is how we come into the world. Look at a child: they are pure spontaneity. Joy, curiosity, anger, sadness—it all flows through them instantly. They express, they release, and they move on. They are the River.

But then, we grow up. We learn to “fit in.”

We learn that certain expressions are “too much.” We learn that being polite is safer than being real.

Imagine you meet someone. You feel a spark. You want to say, “Wow, you are beautiful.” It is an innocent, fresh impulse. But immediately, your mind jumps in: “Don’t say that. It’s inappropriate. They’ll think you want something. It’s too intense.”

So you swallow it.

What happens to that water? It splashes out of the river and lands in a hole on the bank. It gets stuck.

Give it three days. That fresh water becomes stagnant. It starts to smell. It gets dark. Frogs start breeding in it. It becomes Swamp Water.

This is the mechanism of emotional toxicity. The resentment, the bitterness, the heavy depression you feel today—that is simply energy that was once fresh, but you didn’t allow it to flow. It is “rotten water” trapped in your system.

We have created a life where we are terrified of the River. In our offices, we must be professional robots. In our homes, we must be responsible parents or partners. Even in our free time, we numb ourselves with Netflix, sitting frozen, consuming stories instead of living them.

We have dammed the river. And now we are drowning in the swamp.

The Ultimate Solution (And Why You Can’t Have It Yet)

The ultimate cure for this is simple, but it is not easy: Total Self-Expression.

Imagine the life of a true artist—like Frida Kahlo. Despite her broken spine and immense pain, she used her art to vomit her truth onto the canvas. Every ounce of pain, love, and rage went OUT.

If you could build a life where your job, your relationships, and your creative projects allowed you to express 100% of who you are, you would never be sick. You would never have “stuck” emotions. You would be a clear channel.

But we cannot burn our lives down overnight. We cannot change our jobs, partners, and cities in a single day (though sometimes, life forces us to).

So, what do we do in the meantime? How do we clean the swamp while we build the river?

We need a practice. A conscious way to release the rot before it kills us.

Through my years in shamanism and somatic work, I have found that you need Three Pillars to move this stuck energy. If you miss one, it doesn’t work.

Pillar 1: Vitality (Heat the Water)

Have you ever tried to wash a greasy pan with cold water? It doesn’t work. The grease just sticks.

You need HEAT.

This is the number one mistake people make in therapy. They try to analyze their trauma from the couch, with a cold body and a “mental” approach. They try to think their way out of a feeling problem.

It is impossible.

If your body is passive, sleepy, or rigid, the tension is unreachable. It is like trying to mold cold clay.

You must activate your Vital Body first. You need to generate heat. This is why in our tribe we hike, we dance, we do intense breathwork, we plunge into cold water.

When you move the body intensely, you heat the water. Suddenly, the grease (the stuck emotion) softens. You might find that after a simple 20-minute run or a wild dance, you start crying for “no reason.”

That is the heat working. Vitality is the key that opens the door to the subconscious.

Pillar 2: Centered Attention (Stop the Noise)

Once the body is hot, you have a window of opportunity. But usually, we waste it because our mind is somewhere else—thinking about tomorrow’s meeting or replaying an argument from 2015.

You must bring your attention HOME.

You need to take all that scattered mental energy and focus it like a laser beam into your body.

Where do you feel the pressure? Is it a knot in the stomach? A clamp on the throat? A weight on the chest?

This is somatic contemplation. It isn’t about analyzing the sensation (“Oh, this is because my mother said X…”). No. It is about feeling the sensation.

When you combine high vitality with focused attention, you create a container. You are no longer running away from the pain; you are entering it. You are occupying your own vessel.

Pillar 3: Free Expression (The Valve)

This is the hardest one for the “nice guy” and the “good girl.”

You have the heat. You have the focus. Now, you need the OUTLET.

In the Siberian tradition, when we meditate or do ritual work, there are no rules for how you should look. You can cough. You can shake. You can growl. You can cry ugly tears. You can move like an animal.

Most of us block the release because we are ashamed. We feel the urge to cough or scream, and we stifle it because “it’s not polite” or “I don’t want to disturb anyone.”

Screw politeness. Politeness is what got you sick in the first place.

You need a safe space—whether it’s a supportive group or a locked room in your house—where you give yourself PERMISSION to be weird. To be ugly. To be loud.

If you allow the body to move how it wants to move, without the mind judging it, the release is instant. It is magic.

I have seen people release decades of trauma in ten minutes just by allowing their body to shake and scream on top of a mountain. They didn’t need to understand it intellectually. They just needed to let the river break the dam.

The Path Back to the River

We are not meant to be reservoirs of stagnant water. We are meant to be channels.

The headaches, the anxiety, the numbness—these are not “medical conditions” to be managed. They are signals. They are your soul screaming that the river is blocked.

You don’t need to fix yourself. You are not broken. You are just clogged.

Start with the body. Heat the water. Focus your mind. And open the valve.

It takes courage to step out of the “good” behavior and into the REAL behavior. But on the other side of that release?

There is silence.

There is clarity.

There is the person you were actually meant to be.

Ready to Unclog the River?

This work—somatic release, emotional mastery, and returning to your true power—is not something you have to do alone. In fact, it is much harder to do alone because the mind always tries to pull us back into safety.

With Love and Fire,

Teiwaz

Let me ask you something.

Have you ever found yourself in a relationship where, suddenly, the other person’s desires became more important than your own?

Maybe it started small. A restaurant you didn’t really want to go to. A movie you hated but pretended to like. Or maybe it was that time you took a cigarette from a friend—even though you detested smoking—just because you were so hooked on his vibe, his jokes, his energy, that for a split second, his desire became yours.

It happens fast.

You wake up one day and realize it’s been two years. Two years of going where your partner wants. Two years of silencing your intuition. Two years of prioritizing their comfort over your truth.

You didn’t do it because you were forced with a gun to your head. You did it because you allowed it. You slipped into the role of the “nice guy” or the “good girl.”

And here is the brutal truth: You are losing yourself.

We need to talk about this. Because most of us are oscillating between two extremes that are killing our spirit, and we don’t even see the third option.

The Pendulum of Pain: Absorption vs. Isolation

When we talk about relationships—whether it’s with a lover, a parent, or even society itself—most of us fall into one of two traps.

Trap #1 is Absorption.

This is where you dissolve. You merge so completely that you lose your shape. You become the “follower,” dependent on the energy of the leader. You lose your purpose, your direction, and eventually, you lose your connection to your own emotions. You stop knowing if you like that jacket, or if you only stopped liking it because she made a face when you walked out of the dressing room.

The result? Emptiness. You give and give, expecting it to be enough, but you always arrive at a place of void. Why? Because you are serving purposes that are not yours.

Trap #2 is Isolation.

This is usually the reaction to Trap #1. You get burned. You realize you lost your freedom. So you swing to the other extreme. You say, “Relationships are dangerous. Intimacy steals my freedom. Screw this.”

So you build walls. You might still be in a relationship physically—co-living, paying bills together, sharing a fridge—but emotionally? You are gone. There is no intimacy. There is no connection. You are safe, yes. But you are also dead inside.

We tend to think these are the only choices: Lose yourself in love, or protect yourself in loneliness.

But they are just two sides of the same coin: Fear.

The Great Lie We’ve Been Sold

Why do we do this? Why is it so hard to find the middle ground?

Because we have bought into a fundamental lie about what relationships are for.

Society, movies, and songs have conditioned us to believe that the Relationship is the goal. That the partner is the destination. That the self must serve the relationship to keep it alive.

We put the relationship on a pedestal and sacrifice the Self at its altar.

We have it upside down.

The existential truth is this: The purpose of a relationship is NOT the relationship.

The purpose of a relationship is YOU.

The relationship is a sacred tool, a mirror, a door designed to help you rediscover your Being. When two people meet, it is an opportunity for consciousness to awaken, not for consciousness to go to sleep.

When you make the relationship more important than your own Soul, you lose the very thing that makes the relationship valuable: Your unique essence.

The Mechanism: The River and The Roots

To understand why we lose ourselves, you have to understand a fundamental law of this reality: Energetic Gravity.

If you stop cultivating your consciousness, your connection to your Being doesn’t stay still; it fades away. In Shamanism, we call this the “River of Life.”

The current of this world is always pulling you down—toward unconsciousness, toward distraction, toward adopting someone else’s purpose. If you don’t actively swim, the water takes you. This is why we get lost so easily in the city, surrounded by noise, comfort, and screens. We become volatile. We have no roots.

So when a strong personality or a new relationship enters our life, that “gravity” sweeps us away.

Compare this to the people I meet on our pilgrimages to the Amazon jungle. These people are grounded. They are so connected to the earth, to their bodies, and to their sensations that they have their own weight. You cannot just push them over with an idea or a joke.

They don’t need mental walls to protect themselves because they have Roots.

To stop losing yourself, you must cultivate this “weight.” You must be so filled with your own Purpose, your own Desire, and your own Truth that there is no space left for you to be invaded by another’s agenda.

When you are connected to your true desire—that hunger for life, that passion in your gut—boundaries happen spontaneously. You don’t have to “think” about saying no. Your Being simply rejects what does not align with it, naturally, just as the body rejects bad food.

But… Won’t This Create Conflict?

This is the question that keeps everyone trapped in the “nice guy” role. “Teiwaz, if I start asserting my truth, people will get upset.”

Yes. They will. And this is where we need to reframe our understanding of Love vs. Comfort.

When you are authentic, you become a mirror. Your authenticity is an invitation for the other person to also be authentic. But for people who are hiding from their own pain or living in a comfortable lie, your truth feels like an attack.

When I left my engineering career to follow the shamanic path, I had deep, painful conflicts with my family. My mother didn’t understand. It was tense. It hurt.

But I held my line. Not out of anger, but out of necessity for my own soul. I didn’t isolate myself (Trap #2), but I didn’t submit to their expectations (Trap #1). I stayed in the relationship while being fully myself.

And do you know what happened?

My authenticity eventually became permission for them. Years later, my mother—who never cared for spirituality—joined me on a pilgrimage to Peru. We walked the holy mountains together.

Our relationship is now deeper, truer, and more intimate than it ever was when I was just trying to be a “good son.”

Conflict is not the end of the relationship. Often, it is the fire that burns away the fake layers so the real relationship can be born.

Practical Takeaways: How to Stay Rooted

You don’t need complicated rituals. You need to change how you navigate your daily interactions. Here are the pillars to keep your gravity:

Audit Your Desires (The Jacket Test): Pay attention to the moment you look for validation. When you like something—a jacket, a plan, an idea—and someone else disapproves, observe yourself. Do you immediately stop liking it? Catch that moment. That is the moment you abandon yourself. Reclaim it. “They don’t like it, but I do.”

Connect with Your “Hunger”: Many of us are tired because we are disconnected from our Second Chakra energy—our passion, our hunger for life. We are running on the fuel of “shoulds” instead of “wants.” Reconnecting with what you genuinely want to experience gives you the energy to stand your ground. A person with a clear goal is very hard to push around.

Reframe Conflict as an Invitation: When you set a boundary and the other person reacts, don’t see it as a failure. See it as an invitation you are offering them to meet you at a deeper level. You are saying: “I am showing you who I really am. Can you meet me here?” If they can’t, that is their journey, but do not shrink to fit their comfort.

The Best Amulet is Presence: You don’t need protection spells to deal with “energy vampires.” If you are fully inhabiting your body, connected to your emotions, and clear on your purpose, you are naturally protected. Absorption only happens when you are vacant inside. Fill your space with You.

Stop Abandoning Yourself

If you lose the connection with your Being, the river will take you. You will follow others. You will get lost in the scroll, in the drama, in the demands of the world.

But if you keep that connection alive… you become a lighthouse. You don’t just save yourself; you invite everyone around you to rise.

That is true love. Not losing yourself, but finding yourself so deeply that you can finally really see the other.

It happens to almost everyone.

You start a relationship, a job, or a project with a massive boost of energy. Passion, intensity, meaning—it’s all there. You feel alive.

But after a year or two… the magic starts to fade. The intensity drops. The color turns grey.

Suddenly, you find yourself asking: Is this it? Is this all there is?

When I was younger, I asked people around me why this happened. Why does the spark always die? The answer I got was devastating:

“That’s just life, Pablo. The magic goes away, you accept it, and you settle into normal life.”

I refused to believe that. I refused to believe we are condemned to live in a grey cage of routine. But I saw the pattern repeating everywhere: relationships losing fire, jobs losing purpose, friendships losing depth.

The gap between our daily life and the deep longings of our soul becomes so big that nothing makes sense anymore.

And here is the trap.

When we feel this emptiness, what do we do? We try to FIX it with our MIND. We think, we analyze, we make “pros and cons” lists. We try to think our way back to purpose.

But I am here to tell you something that might save you years of frustration:

You cannot think your way to a meaningful life.

It is impossible. Because purpose is not a thought. It is a FREQUENCY.

THE INVISIBLE CAGE OF THE “MIDDLE WORLD”

To understand why your mind is useless here, we need to look at energy. In the shamanic tradition, we understand that we live across different energetic “worlds.”

Most of modern society lives stuck in what we call the Middle World.

This is the world of the mundane. The world of logistics, routine, and management.

Tuesday is yoga. Wednesday is the kids. Thursday is drinks with colleagues. Monday is work. Everything is organized. Everything is predictable. Everything is under control.

When you are trapped in the Middle World, you are living mechanically. You are a Manager of your life, not the Lover of your life.

If you try to make a decision about your PURPOSE from this place, your mind will only offer you “Middle World” solutions:

A better salary.

A bigger house.

More comfort.

More safety.

Your rational mind will say: “Marry this person because they have a good background and stable finances.” It makes logical sense. It’s practical.

But your soul doesn’t care about “practical.” Your soul wants INTIMACY. It wants ADVENTURE. It wants the MYSTERY of connection.

Comfort and safety are necessary, yes. I needed a laptop to write this. Practical things are tools. But they are NOT the purpose.

If you try to find your soul’s mission using the logic of safety and comfort, you will only build a more comfortable cage.

THE DANGER OF THE “UNDERWORLD”

It gets worse. Sometimes, we aren’t just bored; we are suffering.

We drop into the Underworld. This is the energetic state of fear, trauma, heavy emotions, and pain.

I see people come to me in this state, desperate to “find their purpose” so they can escape the pain. And I always tell them the same rule. A rule that saved my life:

NEVER make big life decisions when you are in a state of suffering.

If you decide from fear, you will attract more fear.

If you decide from scarcity, you will attract more scarcity.

If you decide from a desperate need to escape, you will just run into another trap.

In the Underworld, you are energetically disconnected from your potential. You cannot see the sun from the bottom of a cave.

So, if you are hurting, stop trying to figure out your mission. HEAL FIRST. Rest. Release the emotions. Do the work to get back to neutral.

Only then can you look up.

THE TWIST: PURPOSE IS A STATE OF “ENTHUSIASM”

So, if the purpose isn’t in the rational Middle World, and it isn’t in the painful Underworld… where is it?

It lives in the Upper World. The world of Potential.

Think about how you feel right before a first date with someone you really like.

Or the week before a big, exotic trip to South America alone.

You are nervous, yes. But you are EXCITED. You are changing your clothes, imagining the possibilities, feeling the adrenaline. You cannot control what will happen—it is unpredictable—and that mystery makes you feel ALIVE.

That specific vibration—that mix of curiosity, the unknown, and joy—is the frequency of your Purpose.

The Upper World is the energy of the INNER CHILD.

Children live in this state constantly. “What are we doing tomorrow? What is this? Let’s go there!” They don’t analyze the ROI (Return on Investment) of playing with a stick. They just follow the enthusiasm.

Your purpose is not a job title. It is not “I will start a spiritual business in 2025.” That comes later.

First, it is an Opening. It is a sensation of expansion in your chest.

When you raise your energy to this level—through dancing, creating, exploring, doing something NEW—you bypass the rational mind. You enter the zone where your soul can actually speak.

FROM ENGINEER TO SHAMAN: A PERSONAL PROOF

I didn’t start as a shaman. I was an engineer working in a research institution.

For five years, I lived in the rational world. And I loved it for what it was—it gave me safety while I was processing my internal awakening. I didn’t hate it.

But I knew it wasn’t IT.

When the moment came to change, I didn’t make a “pros and cons” list. I didn’t agonize for months.

I had been doing the work. I had been raising my frequency, connecting with that Upper World energy of enthusiasm and discovery.

When the call came, it was crystal clear. I quit. I turned my life upside down—my “omelet”—and I dedicated myself to this path.

It wasn’t a logical decision. To the Middle World mind, leaving a stable engineer job to bang drums and guide retreats is insanity.

But to the Soul, it was the only option vibrating at the right frequency.

PRACTICAL TAKEAWAYS: HOW TO SHIFT YOUR FREQUENCY

You cannot force the mind to find the answer. You must move the energy. Here is how you start:

Stop the “Manager” Mode: If your life is 100% predictable, you are spiritually asleep. Introduce the UNPREDICTABLE. Break the routine. Do something that scares you slightly or excites you.

The Healing Pause: If you are in pain, fear, or burnout (Underworld), DO NOT resign and DO NOT start a new business. Stop. Heal. Breathe. Get back to neutral before you touch the steering wheel of your life.

Follow the “New”: Purpose is connected to the energy of the NEW. Creativity, art, dancing, travel. Activities where the outcome is not controlled.

Don’t Ask “How”, Ask “What”: Don’t ask how will I make money doing this. Ask what do I want to experience? What do I want to express? Power? Love? Compassion?

Use Your Job as a Sponsor: You don’t have to quit tomorrow. Use your “Middle World” job to fund your “Upper World” exploration. Let your salary pay for the retreats, the books, the courses that ignite your soul.

THE CALL TO TRIBE

We are living in a time where we need to take spirituality out of the books and into the streets. Into our jobs. Into our relationships.

Alone, the gravity of the routine pulls you down. It’s physics. It’s hard to stay in the Upper World when everyone around you is obsessing over safety and taxes.

That is why we created the Inner Spark Tribe.

It is a space where we remind each other of who we really are. We do weekly livestreams, we share deep content, and we hold the vision for each other when the “Middle World” tries to crush us.

If you want to stop thinking and start living your purpose, come join us.

Stop thinking. Start moving your energy.

With Power and Purpose,

Teiwaz

When I was in my early twenties, I didn’t love myself. Honestly, I didn’t even know what self-love was. I was filled with deep, existential doubt.

Because I felt empty inside, I spent all my energy begging for love from the world around me. I became a professional at seeking validation.

I looked for it in women. I wanted beautiful girlfriends who would adore me, thinking that if they loved me, I would finally feel worthy. I looked for it in my family. I did everything they wanted me to do. I said “yes” to everything. I became the perfect “good boy.”

I also looked for it in my friends. I wanted to belong, so I acted exactly like them. I betrayed my own personality and desires just to be accepted.

I was chasing a feeling that I called love, but it wasn’t love. It was just a cheap substitute. It was an anesthesia to numb the pain of my own emptiness.

I was constantly anxious, trying to “rob” energy from the outside world because I couldn’t generate it within myself. I forced my behavior, my words, and my actions just to keep everyone else happy. Eventually, this pressure caused me to explode existentially. That breakdown was the beginning of my spiritual path.

The Solitude Paradox: Finding Connection When You Are Alone

Seven years later, my life looked completely different. I had gone through a massive spiritual awakening and moved to a new city where I didn’t know a single soul.

On the surface, it looked like I had lost everything I used to chase. I had no friends in town. I had no girlfriends. I lived alone in an apartment and spent most of my time working or being by myself.

But something incredible started happening.

Every night, I would lie down in a huge bed in a lonely room, in a neighborhood where nobody knew my name. And yet, I felt completely full of love.

One night, I opened my eyes, stared at the ceiling, and asked myself: “How is this even possible?”

Back when I had friends, girlfriends, a good job, and social success, I felt empty. Now, when I was more alone than ever, I felt more love than ever.

That was the moment I began to understand. I realized that self-love isn’t something you get from others—it’s a state you enter. And to enter it, I had intuitively followed a process that I want to share with you now.

Step One: Radical Acceptance (Meeting Your Shadow)

The first and most important step to finding self-love is acceptance.

But be careful—people often confuse acceptance with resignation. Resignation is when you look at something you don’t like and say, “Well, I guess it’s going to be like this forever.” That is not acceptance. That is giving up.

True acceptance is the ability to include everything in your perception. It means looking at what is happening in your body, your emotions, and the world around you, and letting it be there without trying to push it away.

Stop Hiding Your “Underworld”

In shamanism, we talk about the Underworld or the Shadow. This isn’t some mystical place in another dimension; it is right here, inside you.

Your Shadow is where you store all your pain, guilt, unresolved wounds, and the parts of yourself you are ashamed of. It lives in your body—in your muscle tension, in your joint pain, and in those intense, uncomfortable emotions you try to avoid.

For years, I tried to hide my Shadow. For example, I used to be a bit chubby, and I hated my body. Instead of accepting it, I covered it up with clothes and looked the other way. I put on my “good boy” mask to hide my insecurities from others and from myself.

But here is the secret: You cannot feel love if you are hiding.

To find love, you must start observing the parts of yourself you don’t like. You don’t have to like them, but you have to feel them. Ask yourself: “Why does this make me feel bad? Do I feel ashamed? Sad? Weak?”

Relax into those feelings. Include them in your experience. This is the prerequisite for love to enter.

Step Two: Trusting That Life Makes No Mistakes

Once you develop the habit of looking at your dark places, you need something else to keep you going: Trust.

You need to trust that your pain, your shadow, and your struggles are not mistakes. They are not glitches in the system. They are a fundamental part of your existence.

The Limiting Belief That Kills Love

Most of us walk around with a subconscious belief that life is dangerous, chaotic, or accidental. We think that if we stop controlling everything, things will fall apart. We believe that pain is proof that something has gone wrong.

This belief is the enemy of inner peace.

The truth is that life does not fail. Nothing that happens to you is accidental. Everything in this universe follows the law of cause and effect.

Your “Underworld”—that heavy baggage of karma and pain you carry—is actually there for a reason. Without it, your life would have no direction. It is intimately connected to your life purpose.

There is a hidden order behind the chaos. The ultimate goal of every experience, even the painful ones, is your healing, your growth, and your eventual return to love. When you start to see life this way, you stop fighting against reality and start trusting the process.

Step Three: The Art of Losing Control

This was the final piece of the puzzle for me. Once I accepted my shadow and trusted life, I started to develop a new ability: entering a state of non-control.

I used to try to control everything in my life to get what I wanted. But it never worked. I realized that the most beautiful things in life—like authentic love—only happen when you stop trying to manage the outcome.

Love is not a math problem. You cannot solve it like an equation. You cannot force it.

Transcending the Mind

Love only occurs when we transcend the mind and enter a space of non-control. This is what we do in our shamanic rituals, meditation, and breathwork practices. The goal is always the same: to stop directing the experience and just let it flow.

In this state, you stop fighting. You start including everything.

• A difficult emotion comes up? You include it.
• A painful memory surfaces? You include it.
• A negative thought arrives? You include it.

Instead of pushing these things away, you welcome them with care and trust. This capacity to include everything is what love actually is.

Love is not just a sweet, romantic feeling. Love is your capacity to connect with everything—the good, the bad, and the ugly. It is the energy that binds you to reality when you stop resisting it.

That is why you never fall in love with the person you expect to fall in love with. It happens spontaneously, on a random day, when you least expect it. Why? Because love needs spontaneity. It needs the absence of control to breathe.

Conclusion: True Love is Connection, Not Need

When you learn to accept, trust, and let go of control, you arrive at a beautiful, unique place in your life. You realize that you don’t need anyone to feel love.

The people in your life will be there because you want them there, not because you desperately need them to fill a void. Your relationships will come from a place of freedom, not dependency.

You will feel lighter, more energetic, and more joyful than ever before. Instead of adapting your life to get validation from others—like I did when I was younger—you will finally start creating your own life.

Ready to Go Deeper?

This power is already inside you, but you have to learn how to access these different states of consciousness.

If you are curious about how to enter these states of non-control, acceptance, and trust, we are here to help. We are always working with these energies through practices in nature, retreats, and community gatherings.

Contact us, leave a comment, or join our community. Let’s walk this path back to love together.

We are connected. See you soon.

We have all been there. We have these situations where we yell at the people we love, we get into fights with important people in our lives, or we just fight over silly things. Sometimes, we explode emotionally without any real justification.

Other times, we stop ourselves. We sabotage what we are doing with negative, destructive thoughts, undervaluing the beautiful things in our lives or our projects. Or perhaps we pour our energy into addictions—food, tobacco, drinks—wondering why our energy manifests destructively and feeling like we can’t do anything to stop it.

But before we go any further, I want you to know one thing: You are not broken.

Thinking “I am broken,” “I am doomed,” or “everything I do is wrong” is just another negative, destructive pattern.

The truth is much simpler. The only thing happening is that you have an excess. You have an excess of creative energy that you are not using. Destructive patterns simply feed on the creative energy that we are holding back due to fear and blocks.

Your Gifts Are Not for You

Now, what does this river have to do with you?

Every single one of you has a gift. You have gifts and talents that you received from God, from life itself. We all have them.

But what exactly are these gifts?

• For some, it is intelligence.
• For others, it is fire—a strength and confidence to do things in this world, an incredible vitality.
• Some have the gift of consciousness, the ability to see the truth of what is happening.
• Others are masters of beauty.
• Some have an innocent heart that never judges, that forgives with deep compassion.
• Some have a strong, resistant body, a physical power to achieve great things.
• And some have the gift of humor, bringing joy to the spirit.

Whatever your gift is, imagine it is that river of energy flowing toward you. It is a faucet you cannot turn off. Just like the water from the mountain snows never stops coming, this energy never stops coming to you.

But here is the key you must understand: These gifts are not for you. They are for you to give.

In fact, you often cannot even recognize you have a gift until you give it away. That is why a person who is naturally extremely strong, confident, and full of fire might actually feel weak. Why? Because they aren’t expressing their great gift.

We usually have our biggest blocks right where we have our biggest gifts.

Think about it. Imagine you have that internal fire—the energy of a warrior. But you live in a world conditioned for a quiet, comfortable life where the only goal is simple survival. If your life is just going to the office, going to the supermarket, and maintaining a routine, you cannot express that quality. That fire screams to be put into a great battle, a great project.

Or imagine your gift is creativity. It is screaming at you to create something new, something incredible. But if you are in an environment that is rigid, hermetic, or stuck in old habits, that creativity has no space to get out.

And so, the river gets cut off. The energy accumulates, and accumulates, and accumulates… until it becomes too much.

Why “Managing Emotions” Doesn’t Work

So, how do we solve this? Or rather, why does everyone fail when they try to solve it?

The reason is simple: Everyone tries to manage the consequence.

You tell yourself: “I have to manage this conflict. I have to manage my emotions. I have to manage my intensity, my fear, my anger.”

But the truth is, it is unmanageable. You cannot manage it.

Once your energy has been invested in fear, conflict, frustration, or anger, and it grows enough… you can no longer control it. It dominates you. It covers you. You act based on it. It is almost as if you are possessed by that destructive energy.

And that is when the destructive attitudes come: the fights, the judgments, the negative internal dialogue, the self-sabotage.

Trying to stop the flood after the dam has broken is impossible. You are working at the wrong level.

The 3 Levels of Healing

So, how do we actually work with this?

We can work on three levels. It is super important that you understand these and apply them in your life.

This process of redirecting your energy to a place where it can be expressed takes time. Sometimes, you need to restructure your life. You need to change habits. You need to try new things, invent new projects, and—crucially—you have to “let go” of some things.

It is a profound transformation process, and most people skip it because it’s hard. But here is the roadmap:

Level 1 & 2: The Deep Work

These two go hand in hand, and they are the foundation.

• Identify your gift. You need to find that specific quality (fire, beauty, intellect, etc.) that flows through you.
• Create a space to express it. You must create a project, an environment, or a place in your life where that energy can be redirected.

If you have a creative gift but believe “I have to be a farmer like my father” or “I don’t want to hurt my family by doing something different,” that is your block. You have to dissolve those beliefs to create that space.

Level 3: The Bridge (Energy Alchemy)

Now, what do you do while you are building that new life? What do you do while you are transforming?

You still have that “stagnant water”—the anger, the frustration, the negative self-talk.

This is where Energy Alchemy comes in. You need practical support to handle the destructive energy right now. You do this through spiritual practices:

• Meditation
• Breathwork
• Hikes and walks in nature
• Rituals (like using the drum)
• Ocean baths

These aren’t just for relaxation. Their purpose is to transform heavy, destructive energy (lead) into light, constructive energy (gold). They return you to a state of inspiration and clarity so you can see what is blocking you and keep moving forward.

The Invitation to Transform

This is the great transformation—the secret that almost nobody tells you. Everyone works on the level of the “situation,” trying to fix the fight or the bad habit. Very few people work at the higher level of how you are redirecting your energy.

You can read about this, but to truly heal, you often need to step out of your current environment and experience it.

If you want to take this journey, we are traveling to La Gomera for our next retreat.

In this retreat, we are going to do exactly what we have discussed here, but we are going to do it with our bodies and souls, not just our minds.

Over the course of 6 days and 5 nights on this incredible volcanic island, we are going to:

• Reconnect with nature: We will hike in the mountains, meditate in ancient forests, and swim in the ocean.
• Experience the alchemy: We will connect with dolphins and use powerful practices to transform that negative, heavy energy into something light and vital.
• Find your clarity: You will leave understanding exactly what your gift is and, just as importantly, what specific fear or block has been stopping you from expressing it.

This trip is a gift you give to yourself. It is an escape from the tension, the conflict, and the fear. No one can just “tell” you this truth; you have to feel the process of energy alchemy within yourself. You will be amazed at the shift.

You will finally understand the missing element needed to escape these destructive cycles forever.

Join us in La Gomera (February 2026).

Don’t miss this opportunity to change your life’s flow from a flood into a river.

This city has become a growing hub for spiritual retreats, where individuals from all walks of life can find deep relaxation, healing, and a sense of personal renewal. But what makes a spiritual retreat in Brussels so transformative?

Spiritual retreats are not just about escaping the stresses of daily life. They are about going inward, accessing the deeper parts of yourself, and reconnecting with your true essence. In today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to get lost in the noise—constant distractions, responsibilities, and societal expectations. A retreat offers the sacred time and space to silence that noise and return to what really matters: your inner peace and personal healing.

In Brussels, these retreats combine a unique mix of ancient wisdom and modern techniques. Whether you’re seeking meditation retreats to calm your mind or healing retreats to realign your energy, the city offers a rich variety of experiences. From guided meditations and breathwork sessions to shamanic ceremonies, each retreat is designed to help you reconnect with both your inner self and the world around you.

The Transformative Power of Spiritual Retreats

When you participate in a spiritual retreat, you are stepping into a space of transformation. These experiences are not just “getaways”—they are profound journeys of healing and self-discovery. The energy shift you undergo during a retreat can lead to a clearer mind, a lighter heart, and a deeper sense of purpose.

One of the core elements of a retreat is the opportunity to disconnect from the external world. During a retreat, you’re invited to leave behind the everyday concerns, the endless to-do lists, and the pressures of your environment. This gives you the mental clarity and emotional space needed to dive deep into your spiritual practice. The result? You emerge feeling renewed and empowered, ready to face life’s challenges with fresh energy.

Moreover, healing retreats in Brussels often incorporate collective energy through group work, where participants share a common intention: personal growth and healing. The power of community in these settings cannot be underestimated. As you share your experiences, the collective energy amplifies your healing process, fostering a sense of unity and shared purpose.

These transformative experiences are especially powerful when guided by experienced practitioners who draw on sacred traditions like shamanism, energy healing, and meditation. During a shamanic retreat, for instance, the connection to nature and the cosmos is deepened, allowing you to receive spiritual guidance and support for your journey.

Types of Spiritual Retreats in Brussels

Brussels is home to a variety of spiritual retreats, each offering unique approaches to healing and personal growth. Depending on what you’re seeking, you can find retreats focused on deep meditation, energy healing, or shamanic practices. Here are some of the most popular types of retreats available:

Meditation Retreats in Brussels

If you’re looking to quiet your mind and cultivate inner peace, meditation retreats are an ideal choice. These retreats typically focus on mindfulness practices, allowing you to become more aware of your thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. Meditation helps you develop clarity and detachment from stress and anxiety, giving you the tools to maintain a calm, centered state of being even after the retreat is over.

In Brussels, many meditation retreats integrate modern mindfulness techniques with ancient wisdom. Sessions can include guided meditation, walking meditation, and breathwork exercises, all designed to help you achieve deeper relaxation and emotional balance. The atmosphere is one of calm, serenity, and introspection, ideal for those who want to recharge and reconnect with their true selves.

Healing Retreats for Personal Growth

For those seeking physical, emotional, or spiritual healing, Brussels offers specialized healing retreats that focus on restoring balance to your body and mind. These retreats often incorporate a range of holistic therapies, such as energy healing, Reiki, sound healing, and even sacred plant ceremonies.

Healing retreats provide a safe and nurturing environment where you can address unresolved emotional wounds, physical pain, or mental blockages. By engaging in these powerful healing modalities, participants often report feeling lighter, more centered, and connected to a higher state of consciousness. Whether you are dealing with past trauma or simply looking to boost your overall well-being, these retreats offer profound transformation.

Shamanic Retreats: Connecting with the Sacred

Shamanic retreats in Brussels offer a truly unique experience. These retreats are rooted in ancient traditions and provide participants with the opportunity to connect deeply with nature and the spiritual realms. Shamanic practices often involve rituals, drumming, chanting, and ceremonies that open the gateway to a deeper understanding of the universe and your place within it.

During a shamanic retreat, the shamans guide you on a journey to meet your spirit guides, connect with the elements, and work with ancestral energies for healing and protection. Participants often describe these retreats as life-changing, helping them to release old patterns, gain new insights, and step into a more empowered version of themselves. The sense of connection—to both the spiritual and natural world—is an essential part of the healing process in these settings.

Benefits of Attending a Spiritual Retreat in Brussels

Participating in a spiritual retreat can have profound effects on your overall well-being, both physically and emotionally. Whether you’re looking for inner peace, personal healing, or spiritual growth, the benefits of attending a retreat are vast and transformative. Here are some key advantages of joining a spiritual retreat in Brussels:

Deep Relaxation and Stress Relief

One of the most immediate benefits of attending a retreat is the opportunity to fully relax and disconnect from the stresses of daily life. Many people find that stepping away from their routines—whether it’s work, family obligations, or societal pressures—gives them the space they need to recharge both physically and mentally. A combination of mindfulness practices, healing sessions, and time in nature helps to lower stress levels and improve overall well-being.

Emotional and Mental Clarity

A retreat offers you the chance to clear mental clutter and focus on what’s truly important in your life. Whether you’re dealing with major life decisions, emotional trauma, or simply feeling stuck, the quiet environment of a retreat allows for introspection and deeper self-reflection. This clarity helps you reconnect with your purpose and regain a sense of direction in life.

Healing from Within

Many spiritual retreats, especially healing retreats in Brussels, offer tools and practices that encourage deep emotional and spiritual healing. From energy healing sessions to guided meditations, participants often experience a release of emotional blockages, paving the way for long-term healing. The safe, supportive environment of a retreat allows you to process difficult emotions, letting go of what no longer serves you.

Strengthening Your Connection to Nature and the Spiritual World

For those interested in reconnecting with the natural world and exploring their spiritual side, retreats provide a unique opportunity. Especially in shamanic retreats, participants are guided through sacred ceremonies that connect them with nature, the elements, and spiritual beings. These connections can offer insights, guidance, and a renewed sense of purpose in life, helping you to see the world from a more holistic and connected perspective.

How to Choose the Right Spiritual Retreat in Brussels

With so many options available, choosing the right retreat can feel overwhelming. However, selecting a retreat that aligns with your personal goals and spiritual journey is crucial for getting the most out of the experience. Here are some tips to help you find the perfect retreat:

Identify Your Intentions

Before committing to a retreat, it’s important to reflect on what you’re hoping to gain from the experience. Are you looking for deep relaxation, emotional healing, or spiritual enlightenment? Each retreat offers different practices and focuses, so being clear on your intentions will help you find a retreat that aligns with your needs.

Consider the Type of Retreat

Once you’ve identified your goals, consider what type of retreat will best support them. For example, if you’re seeking relaxation and mental clarity, a meditation retreat in Brussels may be ideal. If you’re dealing with emotional trauma or seeking physical healing, a healing retreat with energy work may be more appropriate. And if you’re looking to connect with ancient spiritual traditions, a shamanic retreat can offer profound insights and transformation.

Check the Credentials of the Facilitators

It’s important to ensure that the retreat leaders are experienced and knowledgeable in their respective fields. Look for facilitators who have a strong background in the practices they are teaching, whether that’s meditation, shamanism, or energy healing. You can often find testimonials and reviews from previous participants that give you an idea of the facilitator’s approach and effectiveness.

Read Testimonials and Reviews

Many retreat centers in Brussels provide testimonials from past participants. These reviews can offer valuable insights into the retreat’s atmosphere, practices, and overall effectiveness. Pay attention to how others describe their experiences and what specific outcomes they achieved during the retreat.

Preparing for Your Spiritual Retreat: What to Expect

Once you’ve chosen the perfect spiritual retreat in Brussels, it’s important to prepare yourself for the experience. A retreat is not just a vacation; it’s a profound journey inward, and being mentally, emotionally, and physically ready will enhance your experience. Here are a few things to keep in mind before embarking on your retreat:

Open Yourself to the Experience

Come with an open heart and mind. Every retreat is different, and you may experience emotions, insights, or challenges that you weren’t expecting. Trust the process and allow yourself to be fully present in each moment, knowing that each step of the journey is meant to guide you towards healing and self-awareness.

Disconnect from the Outside World

Many retreats encourage, or even require, that you disconnect from technology and the outside world. This can feel challenging at first, but it’s essential to the deep inner work you’ll be doing. Take this opportunity to truly disconnect from your everyday stresses and immerse yourself in the retreat experience. The more you let go of external distractions, the more you can focus on your inner transformation.

Bring Comfortable Clothing and Essentials

Retreats are often held in peaceful, nature-filled environments, so bring comfortable clothing suitable for meditation, ceremonies, or any outdoor activities. If the retreat offers ceremonies or specific spiritual practices, make sure to check if you need to bring any special items, such as a journal, crystals, or other personal sacred objects.

Embrace the Collective Energy

One of the most powerful aspects of any retreat is the collective energy created by the participants. Be open to connecting with others, sharing your experiences, and contributing to the overall energy of the group. Healing and transformation are often amplified in a collective setting, where everyone is working toward a common goal of spiritual growth and healing.
