Being in love with your life is superpower. Being presence in your present is a gift. Keep laughing at yourself is the best art. Trusting your gut feeling is your life saver. Keeping your boundaries and saying them clearly to your surrounding are the best self care. Rising from your ashes from time to time is your magic. Bali has always been the place of to get my heart tested, to experience heaven and hell in each moments, to be loved and to be in pain at the same time, to come home and to be in exile in every step, but the best for me that I know is true by being there is to be alone and to not belong. To realized that those moments are impermanence. The good and the bad. That these reflections matter. But the things that has happened has never been personal. It has always just been lessons. Learned. But the truth it is always been love and never hate. Amidts all things, amidts all people. Its about the core of my strength. Its about the courage of being broken into the open and still have a heart to keep going, for all that has matter. For all and nothing. The paradise is not on earth, but about being the earth itself. Grounded and clear. About the clarity of the moment and not being disillusioned. Its about seeing beauty in every single things. In the ugly and the dark side of that “heaven”. In understanding the balance and embracing your own truth. In my own water, my heart lies. Among my sea of tears that is where my laughter has never dies. In my waves, I dive deeper and rise higher each day. And to everything I bow 🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️🙇🏻‍♀️ And to everyone I am grateful 🙏🙏🙏💗✨ #reflections #bali #highervibes #rising #ashestoashes #waves #ownyourhealing #risingfeminine #gratitude

I am transforming my past, from the roots of my grandmother lineage. From my past ancestors that came before me. That their pain and my pain could be transform into power, through alchemizing the memories of our bodies. By moving through and letting go. By accepting and having compassion to oneself and collectively. I embrace the past to be in my present. This early morning sunrise, I made dance offering for all the living being that has go through me and before me. From one of the top sacred spot of our ancient land in Java, I salute the sun and move through the air of today. And we all RISE from here 🌞🌞🌞 Sampurasun 🙏💗✨🌳🌳🌳 #tarawangsa #dancemedicine #movementishealing #ancestralhealing #movementismedicine #mountainoflight #gunungpadang #soulmovement #danceoffering #dance #sunda #sundaland #cianjur #jawabarat #lionsgate #88 #alignment #healing 🎧: Four Tet - Two Thousand and Seventeen Kebaya by @sahariiharii

#Repost @kelana.journey with @get_repost ・・・ Kelana lahir dari percakapan percakapan tengah malam. Obrolan ngalor ngidul tentang perjalanan hidup, cerita cerita yang singgah di dalamnya, tentang pencarian dan kebingungan kami. Berangkat dari sana kami mulai merancang sebuah kolektif perjalanan. Dimana kami bertanya ulang, apa makna sebuah perjalanan bagi kami masing masing. Maka kami menelur Kelana, sebuah ruang tanpa pemimpin yang mengatasnamakan kolaborasi kreatif dan pengetahuan jalanan, fotografi dan etnografi, sejarah dan mitologi, dan isu isu sosial juga lingkungan. Semata untuk merekonstruksi agar apa yang ada di dalam satu perjalanan kita alami sebagaimana adanya. Sebuah perjalanan yang punya potensi pembelajaran dan petualangan. Kami bukan manusia manusia sempurna, terlalu jauh sekali dari figur itu. Namun kami banyak menghabiskan hidup di jalanan dunia ;beberapa dari kami hidup nomadik, bekerja alternatif, menggagas ruang ruang seni dan kreasi, mengajar dan belajar sembari bergerak, kami terkandung dari banyak jalan, dan inilah yang kami tawarkan. Sebuah perspektif alternatif, sebuah bahtera perjalanan baru yang menolak untuk ikut arus karena kami punya pendayung yang berpengalaman dan menolak jinak. Dalam arus baru ini, inilah Kelana, ruang alternatif yang kami coba bangun, untuk kalian yang mencari alternatif. Maaf lama kami harus berjalan keliling dunia dulu untuk menciptakannya. Salam perjalanan dari kami semua. #kelana #travelstories #kelanajourney #regenerativetravel #alternativetravel #pilgrimage #allaroundthefire #nomadictribe

Being Javanese to my bones and soul. Those journey of finding my roots has never been easy. There are many mystical nature of my roots that were shrouded with darkness. Walking me step by step to finding my own source of light. My ancestors teaches me intuitively. Teaching me to surrender completely to the universe and in the lessons of every single beings. They are in my every steps, in the air of my lungs, whispering always: You are so Loved 💗✨✨✨ In Java, I always know: I am 💗 #homeiswheremyheartis #homeisyourself #ancestors #javanese #menjadijawa #beingjavanese #love #java #jawa #kebaya #womeninkebaya #iamlove #cahsragen #jawatengah Photo credit: @stevenbino Makeup by: @stevenbino

I never learn any traditional dancing practice in my current life. My first encounter of Javanese tradition from my father’s grandmother lineage was when I immersed myself to Javanism while starting my life in Jogjakarta during my student days. I tap my ancestral memories of my body through movement. In the respect for all the women before me, I dance their journey and my journey. For all the wise women inside of me, I bow my utmost gratitude to them. In always guiding, protecting, connecting and loving me unconditionally. Dear, Ibu Pertiwi, our Earth Mother, in your ground, I give the gift of motherhood to your soil and soul. Happy Mother’s Day 💗💗💗 Shoutout to all my ladies out there, who give birth in any form and having the power of rebirthing themselves over and over. Love you from the earth and the universe and back ✨✨✨ Matur Suwun @novaruth for this tembang 💗: Kidung - Jessika Kenney Top by @lemarilila #movementpractice #mothersday #dancemedicine #ancestral #healing #ownyourhealing #dive #elementalembodiment #movingenergies #grounded #grounding #motherarth #ibupertiwi #beingjavanese #menjadijawa #javanese #jawa

hilang sudah jejak-jejak itu
sementara sepatu-sepatu boot mulai beranjak
menginjak bumi ini

biar
biar semua meledak
semua yang saling tindas menindas ini

langit gerah
merah marah
tersisa bau darah
di jalanan-jalanan mewah ini
