Remember Who You Once Were

“Bone by bone, hair by hair, Wild Woman comes back. Through night dreams, through events half understood and half remembered…” ― Clarissa Pinkola Estés

At some point, you wake up and feel, in every aspect, that you have become alienated from yourself.
Do you leave it that way out of fear, or do you dare to search for your hidden self?
The search for your true self marks the beginning of a transformation, enabling you to reconnect with who you once were.
By shifting your consciousness, redirecting your focus from the outer world to your inner world,
you can find your inner silence—a place where you can be yourself and feel whole, calm, and balanced, protected and safe.
This place can be anywhere; it is not a physical location and is independent of time and space.
By connecting with your inner self, detached from the outside world and its many demands, you recharge.
Feel the strength to grow into your authentic self. Reclaiming that power is a struggle:
to let go of who you were taught to be and to become who you truly are.
It is like being born again. In doing so, you regain your freedom and reconnect with your instinctive nature, your wild self.
Clarissa Pinkola Estés wrote the book ‘Women Who Run With the Wolves’. It is an important source of inspiration for my work.
