Walking Home

What is the meaning behind those words we hear "come home to self?"

WE are home, we may feel, living every day. So, what does this expression truly mean on a deepening level?

Personally, it takes my heart straight to the medicine of buffalo. The walking journey through a storm. A journey of encountering life's dance and gifts, for a more beneficial and connected life patiently waiting the other side when witnessed and honoured. I work and embody the medicine of buffalo often, softening into the skin and steady-formed footprints of buffalo strength and knowing. A structure, walking with purpose, on one's true soul path with dignity and respect for life it self.

You may not be familiar with the ancient story, where The buffalo chooses to journey towards the storm, seeking peace the other side, movement of choice, going through. A space where many may choose to run away, the cloud being yet continues its own path, chasing tails. The buffalo knows and holds the codes of internal strength shifting through the essence for what awaits the other side its worth. The buffalo honours this pathway. The deepening of uncomfortableness for progression. The going against the grain for self. They hear the whisperings of their true nature and decide not to hear following the crowd. The crowd whom are forever chased by the storms chaos and affected by its power rather than matching it. Internal instincts, the soul path, is the buffalo way. The spirit sings, the journey is what it needs to be, and all guided from one's compass, a knowing. For to live in calmness, regulation and honouring self-love is for the buffalo to face-on, steadily walk towards, and empowerment from self-trust. The buffalo knows and understands what many run from is actually an ally, a friend, and the journey home to self is then created.

So, what is 'coming home to the self?' Alchemy and honour to the true soul path which is naturally yours for a more beneficial life. To visit places one may have chosen previously to avoid but keeps being internally chased, or not yet understand the process. Internal whisperings keep talking, just out of reach, cycles, unwanted behaviours, loops, addictions, stuck mode, all continue. Remember, until you turn and face the storm, it will always follow with each of its return.
