Finding my Voice

Revisado: 07-27-22

My journey with Oren started two years ago with his guided meditations, Say What You Mean (audio)book and the September 2020 course.
Lonely, hurt, angry and with a lot of resentment I couldn’t talk to the few people in my life without them getting defensive, even though I only wanted to be understood (not really to blame and especially not to hurt). It was a very painful time, especially because no one could do with me what I heard Oren talk about, which I desperately wanted: to listen to others with curiosity and not getting entangled in the blame that might come with what they say. I was also clearly not able to listen to others like this. But at least now I knew what I wanted.
Even though Oren talks of making small changes, I’ve always been harsh to myself “for not putting in enough work”. And still, today, listening to this audiobook, I am filled with gratitude, for through time, and at times keeping it in the back burner, I am feeling way more spacious, capable of knowing myself, of expressing my needs. My relationship with my mom has become close and warm, with one brother there’s much more ease, with my dad it has opened up. I have friends, and just less than three weeks ago I dared make a request for something that would truly help me (move out of my room and stay with a friend for a week). It all worked out beautifully and I am very grateful to them, but I am incredibly grateful to myself, for having the courage to ask and for trusting myself, my gut feeling. I am grateful to Oren, because through his words and wisdom, courses and guided meditations, I have slowly, but steadily grown into the direction I so desired, two years ago, as I first found his voice. He has helped me to find my own voice, and even though I have not yet finished this audiobook, and I’m just getting started with learning all he has to offer, I have finally felt the need and the voice to express how incredibly helpful his work (and this training in particular, today) has been for shifting my life around, finding my courage, my strength, and giving myself tender space.

If you need some help or guidance navigating relationships, or you find yourself in a dark spot, listen to the preview and if you find comfort, like I did, in Oren’s voice, trust yourself and go for it. And may it bring you peace and some sense of direction.

Thank you Oren, for putting into words, written and spoken, all the work you have done, tenderness, vulnerability, wisdom and guidance you have gained, so we too can lead a better, more connected and fulfilled life. I look forward to continuing to learn from you.
