a window to life

09.05.23

on saturday we’ve had another community concert in gaia. a donation based event with candles, live music and people enjoying each others presence in a very loving space.
additionally to that magic luca and me prepared some magical cacao – cacao with one beautifully grown psychedelic mushroom.
the evening was full of singing, togetherness, laughter and people sharing the space with one heart and intention on that mystical wave of mushroom cacao.
the evening ended in cuddles and me going to bed blessed and happy about the magic we’ve created once again.

on sunday I woke up feeling even happier. I started the day with singing and cleaning the leftovers of the last night, followed by a lovely coffee date with my much beloved neighbours in fungi academy.

then I went to a kirtan in koruna, another place only 4 walking minutes away from home. the space of the kirtan overlooks the mountains and the lake, surrounded by lush green plants. before the kirtan the medicine of cacao was served. moments of meditation, devotion, bliss. birds were flying over the mountains in the distance reminding me of life’s beauty and the great mystery in it all.

from there I decided to join the slumber party in the mystical yoga farm on the other side of the lake.
I took a tuktuk to san marcos, from where the boat would leave and on the dock I met a lot of beautiful friends and a tiny baby dog!
(it’s tiny paws were probably the softest thing I’ve ever touched and I was absolutely in awe of creation again)

the boat left full of beautiful people and took us on a 40 minute ride across the lake that used to be a volcano many many years ago. when we arrived to the farm, people were singing and playing and welcoming us at the dock with so much love.

the mystical yoga farm is another absolutely beautiful space. right next to a mountain, „grandfather rock“, at the lake, surrounded by plants and beautiful nature.

people showed us around, there was yoga with live music and cozy lovely spaces all over.

we had another cacao ceremony around the fire and as the light of the day slowly started fading away we were singing in a circle around the fire. for many hours we sang, cuddled up in blankets, tea and cacao our nourishment and each others company.

I met a friend I haven’t seen for some days at the farm and I was reminded what it feels like to be so much loved and cared for. for the first time in a while I received so many beautiful compliments that actually meant something to me – made me smile, made me blush and thank life for this person in front of me.

I spent some time talking to the moon and the lake at night, then I went into the temazcal and back to the singing. I spent the night in my friends arms, by the fire, feeling so incredibly loved and cared for.

that night I slept right next to the lake in a small tent. oh the tent reminded me so much of my time in the selva la candona – and of my wish to buy a little tent myself for future travels so I could easily sleep in the most beautiful places in nature.

that morning I finally had a swim in the lake. the water looked like glass, in front of me volcanos and the morning mist still hanging over the water. it’s the small things, always the small things that mean so much. a week ago I told luca that I wished for someone to pick flowers for me, tell me beautiful things and enjoy my company as much as I enjoyed theirs. that night all of these things came true and in that morning I received flowers and oh I felt so loved.

another beautiful breakfast, vegan pancakes, another memory of the jungle, another reminder of how grateful I am.
from there, we took a boat home again, my heart filled with gratitude and bliss and so much love.

sitting in the front of the boat, overlooking the lake and all the magical mountains my heart was touched and moved and so content again.

in san marcos I met a lot of people I know, from there I went home with my good friends from fungi and had beautiful conversations and another coffee date with them.

I slept early that evening and I slept very well, the cat came to accompany me at night and today I woke up extremely happy and just in time for another morning date with my beloved neighbors.

a few morning walks, fresh sourdough bread and organic eggs later I am back at gaia, just in time to welcome my lovely luca who has been housesitting the last night.
