Welcome to Sessions with Iri
Dear friends,
Welcome to my new website, which from now on, will be solely dedicated to my 1:1 work with people.
As many of you know from my Mist.place newsletters, I underwent quite a strong process over the last 2.5 years. With it, the sessions I offer to people, as well as my whole being frankly, have changed in a way that feels irreversible and substantial enough to warrant a new copy, a separate website and a very different feel.
Apart from being older, I am becoming more authentically myself - direct, uncompromising and loving in a way I didn’t consider to be loving before. Little Mist.place continues to exist for all things yoga and retreats, but from now on, you will find my 1:1 work with people under Sessions with Iri.
Sessions with Iri
I think I’ve done a much better job on the new website explaining what my work is about - with less spiritual fluff, pretty images and softeners. But I can also summarise it in one sentence - the process of discovering who we authentically are and what love actually is. I believe that we, as a civilisation, are all beginners on this journey and live in a world where what is considered loving has actually very little to do with love. And our souls feel this dissonance.
This dissonance usually shows up in our lives as a very painful, confusing and uncertain time - a dark night of the soul, you could say. It feels like death and in some way it is - for all our masks, comforts and ideas of what would bring us fulfilment. In truth, it is an initiation into who we were always meant to be. I’m here to support you through this rite of passage. Learn more about my work
As for what love is and how this initiation works and why it is so fulfilling, I really like this poem - I’ve shared it before.
Sacred Brute
Love is a sacred brute
she’ll break into any heart
more or less uninvited
and bring up every well hidden wound.
She’ll take your pacifiers one by one,
if she’s kind
or the whole bundle all at once,
if not.
She is imprudent, manner-less
a deity of wreckage
to every comfortable structure.
She does not care about maintaining you
anything like you were.
She is a vandal to every tidiness.
She opens
your well-stored inner boxes
and giddily loosens your collection
of rage and griplessness.
Her only intention?
To fully take off your mask
so God’s face can finally
shine through you.
