Masiha She taught me the true value of a safe space. OH MY GOD. It's insane who you can become in one. Now, I know how to create my own safe spaces. Or ready myself for a particularly hard day, space wise. She helped me truly forgive and love my past self. That's all my child needed. Some reassurance and a lot of love.
She's always managed to be there for me. She told me it's okay that I needed more support sometimes. And when we're taking breaks from therapy, she checks in. I'm allowed to text her if I need her and it allows me space to reflect on all the work we did.
She helped me find my inner goddess. I can't even begin to explain this profound feeling. Until Idiscovered this, I didn't believe in spirituality or any of that. My definition of the universe and how I belong has expanded multifold. And I know this is just another beginning. The beginning of myspiritual journey.
She is the most gentle, no-bullshit person. I didn't think this was possible. The best part about being this person is how reliable she is. I LOVE reliable people. But what I love more is quiet reliable people. I mean wth.
On some days, her presence is enough. Just take a moment to think about how powerful this is. Just sending her a text or recalling what she said gets me through something.
She has cried with me.
She is an incredible listener. Ask her what I said ten months ago. She'll remember. Because she's there with you, in that moment.
She taught me that darkness isn't bad. It's grossly misunderstood. Now I'm playing games with my darkness and I'm letting it guide me.
Recently, she helped me find the biggest missing piece. My disconnect from nature. I have alwaysbeen scared of nature. I've avoided it and I felt kind of ashamed about how first worldly I was. But really. There is no bigger spiritual guide. Nature is daunting, playful and largely unapologetic. I felt the eternal breath, the dance and the bloom. I felt one with the world and I want more of this. My battery remains charged when I'm regularly connecting with the universe through nature.
Her boundaries, professionalism and morals are goals. I think we need more women like her in thisworld. But I'm glad I know an OG like Masiha.
I used to think having a long term therapist is a white man's myth. Now I know that I've foundmine. And it's just getting good.
People around me now ask me for her number all the time. ONLY because they see my evolution. And it's insanely empowering. I'm grateful for her all the time.
IMO, therapy takes time, trust and a lot of effort. From both sides! When that happens, it's just magic. I can't believe I have a person who showed me how important it is to work on myself byworking hard for me. It takes a very special kind of soul to truly understand this.
Lastly, I don't think I would have married the love of my life if not for her. I remember every singleword she said to me then. I SOS called her out of turn, so many times. Today, I have a loving partner, who's also doing self work because of her. I feel like we can do this. I'm still nervous but I want to do it.
I know I'm going to face more challenging situations and I know my anxiety will turn up. But now I can sit and have tea with it and discuss things. The goal now is to change my knee jerk reactions, tofind more ways to feel one with the universe and stay humble and curious about the world.
And I know now how to meditate over something. OMG. It's a life changer.
