All-Love attended by Heather Wright

 

Michael Heemskerk and Carolina Victoria Gonzalez Van Eechoud in Costa Rica at the beautiful El Sabanero Eco lodge experience changed my life and opened my heart to All-Love.

It wasn’t until being at the Sekhem All-Love workshop with Michael Heemskerk and Carolina Victoria Gonzalez Van Eechoud in Costa Rica at the beautiful El Sabanero Eco lodge, which the incident in my past came up as an experience I needed to face and clear.

 

That’s the wisdom of the work being done, it leads everyone in the group through an opening of the heart and it’s the wisdom we carry inside us that tells us what and where the blocks are located. Carol is brilliant at being by a person’s side helping to explain and guide the process. And Michael is patient and solid in leading the group thru sometimes highly charged events without making it seem unmanageable.  Some individuals may not have blocks and are able to connect more rapidly to source if open to the energy. As group leaders they provided such a safe, wise, inviting, experienced atmosphere for the group to develop and grow into supporting each individual.

​

Understanding the processing that may happen in an all love workshop is important. In order to fully embrace the vibration of light and love filling up your being and raising your vibration to match that universal wave connecting you to the source, we may need to release past traumas or negative emotion such as anger in order to allow the All-Love connection.

 

As many of us have experienced growing up and in adult hood, I knew that I carried experiences that were not resolved. Trauma can be large painful events such as car accidents, rape, witnessing murder to name only a few. Trauma can also be small and lasting. Small traumas such as being called hurtful names by a parent, put in life threatening situations, and abuse/neglect. Our magnificent brains are always recording and as young children we are absorbing much more in order to learn to survive and fit into our world, to learn the language, to learn love so that our protectors will take care of us, and to eventually learn to survive on our own. Getting out of my head and into my heart was challenging but with Michael and Carolina and the group exercises slowly I was able to drop down into emotion. Knowing I was being shown something powerful and loving, something I could feel and a peace that was just beyond reach until now.

 

What is beyond survival? It is important to meet our multiple levels of survival as the researcher Maslow described in his Hierarchy of Needs Theory. First we meet the lowest level of physical needs; to eat and drink and stay warm.   Be safe. That to me means a home. Then the next level is the psychological needs of belongingness and loving relationships. Higher needs can only truly be met once the levels of the pyramid are satiated. The fourth level, near the top is esteem needs, of prestige and feeling accomplished. Finally the top of the pyramid is the Self-Fulfillment needs of achieving ones potential, including creative activities, also known as Self-Actualization. Any life experiences will either take us closer to our highest potential or keep us in survival mode. Financial, relational, and feelings of accomplishment or dissatisfaction can keep us blocked in these lower levels trying to resolve issues repeatedly. It might seem like the same relationship keeps happening over and over again, just the person is different. Or the finances just never seem to get to a comfortable level in the savings account. Or the career just seems to be a paycheck. Did you ever wonder what was holding you back?

The end of day two, I felt the sadness weighing heavy on my heart. I wanted to shut out everyone and stop the feelings. That night I had to decide that I could not live as the same sad, disconnected, lonely little girl. I wanted to open to the love of the cosmic forces surrounding and connecting us.

I had to get mad and cry and kick and hit a little to release the anger. I remember a gut wrenching scream that was like giving birth to my pain and fear and pushing it out of me where it no longer was necessary. During the All Love Infinity Dance exercise, on day three, I was finally able to fully process and allow the loving light to connect and it was what I have been looking for and missing all these years of searching for a deeper spiritual connection. I felt my chakra system spin and flow. Michael and Carolina along with several other group members quickly came to support me in my trance like state. I felt energy rushing thru my body pushing out the old ways of being and expanding my heart and mind to allow for a new conscious way of being. I felt the healing energy burning in my hands like huge fire balls. Final I came back to reality with joy and laughter, loving the feeling of being high on a powerful drug. My own natural endorphins reminded me of ecstasy. 

Now that I’m back home I have been remembering the journey and asking myself “now what do I do with this connection to keep it going?”  There is a sense of clarity that makes life easier. I had to end a relationship full of negativity, I needed to long ago. I had to face some issues and set some goals. It’s still working; my life is rearranging to allow more of the higher level functioning in as its being reflected in work, relationships and love. I’m excited to see what will happen next. I have much gratitude toward Michael and Carolina for holding the space for such an important group to meet and grow in love and light. Find an All-Love workshop and go!
