...I never thought I would be on a website talking about how much my life has changed because of "x, y, and z", but lo and behold, here I am...!
Anyone who knew me could say "Stop there, that alone is your testament." I love The Process because I can expect the unexpected.
When I first sat down with Greg, he took one look at me and it was as if arms shot out of his eyes, reached across straight through mine, went down into my stomach, and grabbed the ugliest most painful secrets of them all. I couldn't believe it...how did he see that there?! I had spent years hiding these things. I had planted the prettiest flowers, I had piled mountains of muck, I had watered and fed my fake little garden and fooled most people, including myself, that it was real.
But with one fell swoop, Greg came in, rummaged around in the dirt for a bit, and came up with the nastiest roots he could find. He went past the bullshit and found everything I had concealed. At first I was pissed...who did this guy think he WAS? But then a surge of emotion came over my entire body like a tidal wave. I cried with relief that I had finally been seen. The jig was up, and my days of hide and seek were over.
I had spent years covering who I really was, wanting so badly to be myself, yet not knowing how. I was confused, not expressed, and no one ever truly knew me. I had kept myself hidden with work, friends, relationships, food, drink, and isolation. It was all spiraling out of control and getting crazier and crazier. I didn't know who I really was anymore. And yet I could feel a powerful light searing my insides.
This work harvests the burn. Then teaches you how to use the heat.
The Process has been and continues to be a deep excavation, an up and out of everything that gets in the way of me being an authentic person in this world. I finally realize that all the things I had buried for so long are actually my greatest treasures aching to be surfaced. I've learned how to dig in the mud, come up with fire, breathe air into the flames, and turn them into water to drink.
And the magic just keeps coming.
Greg is the earth-bound Santa Claus, a masterful archaeologist who never runs out of gifts to give. After all is unwrapped, I see that my body is made from the scratch of stars. At last I was given the present I secretly wished was under the pine branches every single Christmas.
Thank you to The Process and this group of people for giving me back twigs, stones, dust, and breath...for strapping on the cosmic big boots and shoveling me back to nature, the most unexpected place of all.
