““Hold” is about transforming our unconscious fascination for the past into the full force of the present moment. It is about the enthrallment that the small child has for his parents, about our perception of the feminine and masculine energies, the essential duality of our psyche, about bringing awareness to our unconscious attachment to our past and the unconscious burden of trying to recreate it. That "force" is our authenticity, which needs to be free from irrational and limiting constraints from our past, in order to bloom. The elation we're talking about means that we don't want to be a "walking life situation", but a living, breathing being. It's no small feat - finding balance. And in that process of deconstruction there is a mixture of first becoming aware of and then releasing aggressiveness, the need to control everything and, eventually, the feeling of loss. This initial "loss" transforms into finding that inner intersection, the chiasm of our true, authentic power and the actions that align with it.”
