Witnessing the physical and emotional abuse on women by pretentious spiritual teachers and guides,

the same grief arises as I witness the abuse of the lands around sacred territories of plant medicine,

polluted by the waste of greed, it moves me to ask the question : 

​

can we accompany our consciousness to preserve what is inherently and infinitely precious,

our awareness towards the source of Life ?

 

The commodity of spirituality and its consequences are severe on the land and the people,

 losing integrity driven by the global economic system that is inherited and used for sustenance,

a system where water is becoming a luxury substituted by Coca-cola.

 

Having been tethered from most of our folk medicine, the roots of wisdom from Earth,

it is my hope that we are slowly returning to a space of listening and balance.

​

How can we reclaim access to sacredness and ritual healing

and rebuild trust in the relationship with the territory?

​

Can we find ways to learn from one another and remain in deep respect without

the appropriation, exploitation and influence on different ecosystems?

 

How are soft drinks filled of sugar and alcoholic beverages influencing 

our ability to steward the Earth as our microbiome is being put to sleep?

​

The connection is subtle yet rooted, we are what we consume,

from one side of the world to the other, addictions are influencing the ways

we take care of one another and the soil holding us nurtured and fulfilled.

​

Shining the light onto the paths that connect us all, through the choices we make in our daily

consumption and support to a system that either regenerates or perpetuates the suffering,

my choice looks into the wish for awareness and a conscious approach to overseas and local engagement,

ethical and fair to the lands, the communities, the ancestors and the living.
