Feminine Power (FP) Live Intensive, July 2012 in Los
Angeles
Incredible:
a month has already passed since those magic and powerful 5 days I spent in Los
Angeles inside the Feminine Power Community, together with 120 FP sisters and
our dear teachers Katherine Woodward Thomas and Claire Zammit.

Actually,
those days were also my honeymoon. Mark and I had married only a few days
before in San Diego. Though Mark is quite inside the Feminine Power Worldview –
which has opened his eyes and caused an incredible transformation in him – for
which he is extremely grateful – he, as a man is not (yet) admitted at our
retreats of the community (though he had a brief appearance on the stage with me receiving the congratulations of the community and talking about his commitment for to create something similar for men....)

and so he spent these days with his daughter
(applying what he has learned from FP), while I passed these days in our
sisterhood engaging in exercises which brought me – and I guess all of us – in
a different state of awareness of what is really possible for me, for us and
for the future of our world.

Claire and
Katherine led us into a space of real unknown territory about how to communicate
with each other. In a 5 day process we discovered and experienced how the state
of the person speaking or listening is impacting the field between them, how it
impacts the speaker who wants to share from her heart, if the listener is
distracted, not fully listening. It is experienced not only as an act of
violence, but it leads also to a feeling of awkwardness and finally shuts down
the communication --- isn’t this exactly the state in which
we are in, everybody, in our western society? Maybe everywhere in the
world! People don’t listen anymore
– this leads to people don’t talk any more, at least not about things which lie
deep in their heart. We close our hearts in the same measure as nobody listens
to us deeply. It is a vicious circle, in which we are in as a collective. And
to experience that directly within our bodies – this was a very big revelation.
Then: how
different it feels, when the listener really listens to the speaker, with her
whole attention and as if the speaker is about to talk about the most important
thing in the world. Here real connection creates itself and the feeling of
being heard and seen. This creates a fertile field of interchange and
exploration, a creative process of deepening into chosen topics by means of a
dialogue – which does NOT come from the head, but from a very deep space within
ourselves - , by coming to a deep understanding of one another, which has the
power to create connection, love – and ultimately peace on earth.
Finally we have discovered
the tools for to arrive to those ‘utopian’ ways of being – like universal love
– where traditional spiritual paths would eagerly talk about without offering
an effective tool to reach that – in a reasonable time and with reasonable
effort.
Thanks to Feminine Power and some few other pioneers in this field.
