Embarking on the Inward Journey
Dear Woodlands Community,
As we step into August, a month that often symbolises transformation and reflection, I find myself contemplating the profound impact of inner work. Guided by the insightful writings of Yung Pueblo, this month’s theme at Woodlands is about starting the journey inward, understanding ourselves deeply to cultivate more meaningful and conscious relationships.
In our daily interactions, it’s vital to recognise whether our reactions are truly reflective of the present or merely echoes of past experiences. This understanding is crucial as it informs how we relate not only to ourselves but also to those around us.
Healing is not a selfish act, it’s a profound service to both ourselves and others. By healing our wounds, we prevent the unconscious infliction of pain onto others, fostering a more compassionate community.
Self-awareness is the first step in recognising our patterns. This understanding allows us to choose differently, to respond to life’s challenges with clarity and wisdom rather than reacting out of old habits.
The journey inward is not always smooth. It challenges us to face the layers of our past conditioning and to embrace the storms of release with grace and patience.
In this spirit, I want to share a personal update on my own path of inner discovery. Some of you might recall from previous newsletters that I’ve embarked on journeys of self-exploration and healing before. Recently, I felt the call to dive deeper into this work again, and have resumed sessions with my psychologist, engaging in BrainWorking Recursive Therapy (BWRT). This decision comes at a time when new paths and challenges are unfolding in my life, and it is crucial to navigate these with clarity and resilience. I share this to remind us all that the journey inward is not a one-time venture, but a continuous commitment to growth and understanding.
At Woodlands, we are fortunate to have a conscious village of individuals dedicated to this inner work. Our shared journey enriches our lives, making them full and thriving. This month, let us commit to deepening our self-awareness, healing our past, and embracing the transformative power of introspection.

A word from our GM Anja – “The journey of healing wounds, whether they are core wounds, inner child wounds, or any other kind, is the hardest work you will ever undertake in life. However, it is also the most rewarding.”
As we continue to navigate this path together, I am reminded of the beauty in the process and the peace that comes from understanding and transforming ourselves. Let’s embrace this journey with open hearts and minds.
Love always
Tania
