Shabnam Ananda

✨ I have finally truly landed after spending a week in the Swiss alps, and 4 of those days and 3 nights completely alone, in my circle made of old wood branches and pine cones, immersed in nature 🌲 this was 4 weeks ago (!!!) It has taken me all this time to ‚adjust‘ back to this noisy world.
💫 Going on this vision quest was for me sinking deep into the space IN-BETWEEN. In between the old that requires letting go, grief, dark nights of the soul and the new - new perspectives, creating a new life, fulfillment and truly living & loving from my soul*heart-space ❤️ I fasted for 96 hours and spent my days in nature BEING instead of DOING. With my body being freed of the labor of digestion I could sink fully into this space, this liminal space in the middle of HER, the great mother. I connected through HER to myself - my higher self, who being minimally active.
💕 the space here will never be sufficient to explain innerorts what transpired for me in those 4 days. I want to share on aspect that deeply touched me… being a highly sensitive person with a highly sensitive nervous system I find myself in this world mostly feeling overwhelmed. On the mountain, in my circle ⭕️ I felt, maybe for the FIRST time in my life, a sense of calm and peace I had never known before. So profound and somehow known from a place of ancient wisdom that resides in ALL of us. It was ✨ EQUANIMITY ✨that I experienced. A deep sense of peace with ALL and a complete BEING in the PRESENT - no past, no future. Just simply right there, peaceful and blissful.
❤️ the work now will to find this in again in pockets and moments throughout ordinary life …..
Love to you all!

Dear soul, I have burnt to ashes and now I rise again. Next month marks the 2 year anniversary of my most profound soul journey of this life 💫 I crumbled to the ground and took a deep dive into alchemy of my soul. Today I embark on a shamanic vision quest - it is the closing the circle ⭕️, the culmination of the past two years, to integrate and to connect to the higher vision for my life and my work here on this planet. This marks the end of one journey and the beautiful beginning of a new one …♥️
I am looking forward to begin sharing it all when I am back - self healing, deep transformation and turning your life around IS POSSIBLE ♥️⭕️💫✨
🌟
To truly immerse myself into this experience I will be completely offline for the next 10 days… ♥️

✨ Honored to have been a guest one this Podcast that I love. It‘s usually in German, but once a month () records an English episode - and last week she launched her conscious conversations episode. Here is Pia’s description of the episode - I really appreciate our connection and the open conversation we had - have a listen -> link in BIO:
“Join me and beautiful Shabnam Ananda, inspiring human and yoga teacher as we dive deep in this conscious conversation. How cultivating courage will help you heal yourself and ultimately: Heal the world. Explore that Yoga is so much more than just „Asanas“ and how she is moving through her own process of healing and growth with grace and compassion.”
So much love to you all ❤️

Accept. Breath. Surrender.
Accept. Breath. Surrender.
•
This is my mantra at the moment.
With everything that is going on in the world, in my head, my heart, my soul and my body, I feel in turmoil, unsettled, tired… my natural reaction or my „pattern“ is to try and fight it. But I know by now, that I will only expend my energy and fall into a state of paralysis. So in order to keep my heart beating and my breath flowing and my creativity alive, I have learnt to ACCEPT what is there, to BREATH into this space and to SURRENDER to that which I can not change. Immediately my focus shifts to what I can do, to that which I am able to change. And so progress happens. Growth happens. Transformation happens.
Sending love to you beautiful souls ❤️ keep breathing, keep accepting and let action arise from your surrender ❤️

The deepest desire I carry within my heart is the dream of a world where freedom, self-empowerment, love, joy and compassion rule all our hearts, our action, our way of life. A world where each and every one of us realizes our inherent connection and unity. We are truly at a breaking point and our great mother, this beautiful, magical, mystical planet we live on desperately needs our love and caring. I went silent on my social media because I have been on a long, intense, at times extremely difficult but also deeply nourishing and healing outward and inward journey, being with me and my shadows. Integrating my shadows, healing my trauma, my body, my mind and my soul*heart. For if we dream to change the world, then we must begin to transform ourselves first. Real change begins with ourselves. The answers to our problems are within us. We all have the power to heal, individually and collective. I am still on this journey, and I always will be. It’s a process and I keep learning everyday...but bit by bit, sometimes more and sometimes less, I wish to share this path and hope to inspire you, give you food for thought and also make you smile. I will never try to convince you or push you or tell you what to do. Transformational journeys are very individual. But I do hope to inspire you. With love ❤️ I am back and ready to rumble ❤️✨❤️
