Sunshine Month


For the past month I have been staying at the Sunshine House in Greece. The place attracting beautiful souls to learn the art of touch, to live healthy and dig deeper inside.

I had an honour to be part of the family and from time to time chop some vegetables, sweep some fallen leaves and just enjoy an easy life.

When I am surrounded by many like-minded people I often feel safe, accepted for who I am and often inspired. The Sunshine House has this vibe inside, this wonderful energy of love and affection. I know I do sound like living in some fairyland, but hey fairylands often has dirt too.

When I am on the road I am often reminded that everything is impermanent and only what I’ve got is here and now. This state of being is perhaps where I feel the most content. Even when I bump into darkness. It’s like an anchor. Always there for me to stop. To look. To feel. To be.

My monkey mind often jumps in front of me. What should I do next, where should I go next, what is my purpose, why I am here. These questions attack me every day. But I know I have my anchor, the present moment. This moment. This exact moment. Concentrating on each letter I put, on each sound that surrounds me. How can this be not enough?

This month hasn’t changed my life. I just felt a little be more connected with that anchor. It’s always there. We are all ships, sailing across, stopping here and there. The storms come and we think we are sinking but it’s up to us to decide how we sail.

I am so grateful for meeting so many amazing people and getting inspired to continue my journey.

Next destination, the cat sanctuary. My animal teachers are calling me to show me more how to sail in this life.

Meow.

Sending big love to my dearest families around,
Ligita

Forests

Hello,

I dedicate this one to my heart home- forest. I swear every time I come back to Lithuania these mysterious, even a little bit spooky forests give the heart shelter to me.

There is something about the pine smell, something in long and slim trunks of these old trees. My eyes bath in the view and my heart is happy. A broken one but in transition of something.

I walked the paths I used to run when I was a child. Memories pass by, one after another. Am I turning so old or does it seem so so far away. I look at the hill that used to be so big to cycle my bike and I laugh. Everything is shrunken. The lake that I used to spend all my summer days in is a tiny pond, the bridge that I jumped off to the water once and was so proud of myself is a tiny step, the house I lived in and knew every corner have different smells now, different people. I love re-visiting the past.

And then I look at the trees and forest. Nothing changed. Is that the reason I find an inner peace? Person who thrives on movement finds an inner peace at something that is the same and always be?

I read somewhere that being in the forest is highly meditative. Beautiful plants and trees catch your attention and without trying you end up being. Here and now. And those tiny lakes and rivers in the forest- they are full of life. How can a man destroy forests? Desperation I guess, but mostly greed.

My time in Lithuania is full of questions, fears, happiness and excitement. Full life's package. Sometimes I feel like a closet full of drawers, in each keeping something in. And to make space for new bits inside I need to clean some old ones.

This September has been hard but still beautiful. I left stunning Sark and special connections and friendships, I got a qualification I wanted and unexpected health problems which made me think about certain things in life. Health is important so much but so as self-realisation, connection and happiness. I do feel very blessed with my family, with great friends and wonderful souls I met. It feels like new years eve post, ha!

In October you will find me in Greece. Give me a shout if you are around.

Much love,

Ligita
