The Path of the Sea Turtle: From Struggle to Self
Call on the Power of the Great Sea Turtle, the slow one, the one who teaches us to let go and trust our inner guidance, the one who carries us from pain to presence, the one who supports us on our journey, and shows us the way back to ourselves
If feelings of betrayal, abandonment, anger, rejection, loneliness, fear and others are present, it may be time to slow down and retreat into the sacred dome of the turtle shell, to seek its safety and protection. From this protected, yet free place, you can effectively explore the more vulnerable parts of the psyche, or self, and get back to the business of being who you really are.
The sea turtle is a symbol of rebirth. The therapy becomes a time to repair, to heal, and to prepare you for the next cycle of personal growth. Are you ready to enter a new phase of your life? Embarking on the Path of the Sea Turtle represents a new beginning, a transformation from a life of pain and struggle to the realization that you are enough.
The sea turtle is the inner guiding spirit that goes with us on our journey, no matter how far, no matter how deep and eventually brings us home, to ourselves.
