in december i got a message, “would you like to share your thoughts on life, travels, money, people, business at yoga festival?”
i replied in speed, “how lovely,” and added. “yes, out of hiding.”
secretly, i hoped my friend merit pulled a joke on me. but a month later i saw my name in the list of wise — peep vain, aigi vahing. hedvig hanson. merit raju. and then me, elsa saks, on saturday, july 27 2019 at 3pm . all of us lighting up an inspiration room.
(+ all yogis with justin michael williams in front)
trust wrapped its arms around my heart. gratitude flushed it’s tunes through my body. and fear pushed play in my mind.
“me, who am i?” i thought in feeling. “what do i have to share?”
for months i swam in thoughts. feelings. and still i swim.
i think, i see clear now. i feel fear to show my humanness in my wildly simple life. without a mask. publicly, and bravely.
fear that words will not run when people are around. fear that my estonian will restrict my thoughts, my stories, i wish to share. fear that simplicity will not speak with you.
but experiences say, go where’s fear and lead with courage. risk it. do it. you have nothing to lose.
so here i am — and bravely i say — in july i’ll go from private to public to share my stories from eye-to-eye, heart-to-heart, soul-to-soul to meet myself, and perhaps meet you, too.
we share. we laugh. and cry, if needed.
we’ll touch a topic — LOVE OR FEAR?
we’ll feel how our stories drive our choices. and how to be heard and seen in our swirling stories.
we’ll touch vulnerable stories. stories that relax our minds, open our hearts and transcend blame. stories that encourage, inspire and build hope to breathe in change.
and coz i don’t know your story, i’ll share mine.
but, as always, my truth starts here — i don’t have answers to blooming questions. i only have stories. wild, vivid, and loving stories in the heart of simplicity.
grab your sneak preview today.
some have heard it. some have not. here’s StoryWeek day 5: the choice. it asks 16 minutes of your attention.
listen to day 5, LOVE OR FEAR? now →
we make choices every-single-day. here i wonder, what thrives us to make the choices we make. and what does it mean to choose love over fear. is the key to go where’s fear and lead with courage? who knows, let’s see.
true choice is the ability to select an option that resonates with the intelligence of your body no matter the risk or cost.
BY MATT KAHN
after you’ve listened, i’d die to hear from you.
shoot me a message, how do you make choices? what do you choose — LOVE OR FEAR? and why’s that?
let’s share. let’s roam free in the land of honesty.
and if nearby i invite you,
to Joogafestival on 27. – 28. july in haapsalu →
life sings, together it’s easier. together it’s better.
do yoga. meet people. and listen to me, and others too.
what if being interested in what’s next transcends fear?
ps. i love you merit. thank you.
