I was born in Finland, in Helsinki to be exact. The country has stood as my support throughout my life and I thank Finland for my deep connection to nature; I grew up surrounded by forests and lakes. Spent every summer in our cabin, wild and free, in harmony with the earth and all its creatures.
Every time I return to Finland I delight in the fresh air, the clean, pure, raw country that I am tied to. Despite this joy and belonging, I have always had a need to go, leave, be somewhere else.
Sometimes where we are born, is not where we belong. Finland's energy is healing and heavy, sometimes too heavy for my light and free-flowing composition.
I have been born to roam and wander, following the unseen strands of light and silent calls of the universe is written in my blood, like a seed I can float from one place to another, while still always being connected to the earth I sprung from.
When I was younger I felt restricted by the heavy energy Finland houses, its constraints and laws. Impatiently I could not wait to get away, and even today, I have no imminent need to return.
Finland is nonetheless home, will always remain home, a safe space for me to rest - a place that I cherish and adore. With time have learnt to appreciate its heavy and raw earthly energy, the way it centres and grounds me wherever I am.
A LAND OF A THOUSAND LAKES AND GREEN GOLD
Finland - the land of a thousand lakes and green gold where earth and water have created a mythical bond, here, in this land of deep green, the raw, pure and heavy energy of the earth rules all life.
Finland is a mystical country with deep roots to earth’s purest forms. It is an ancient land that has seen the rise and fall of the oceans, been crumbled and transformed time and time again, yet always held on to the purest energy of earth itself.
Here the creatures of the earth roam wild and free, the energy is heavy and slow, just as the pine trees that have guarded the land and its secrets for aeons.
A COUNTRY FOR DEEP HEALING
Souls that need rest, healing and a pause are generally born in Finland or drawn to its calming and healing energy. It is a rich country where old hurts, traumas of generations and people who have experienced brutal wrongs come to heal. Heal in a soft quiet that allows reflection, inward growth and rest.
While the earth rules the vast country, Finland also houses one of the brilliant centres of light in the world, pulsating a magnificent golden energy that revives the land and all its inhabitants.
The whole Eastern border is a land of old magic, an earthly energy that glimmers like emeralds in the sun. The North inhabits the ancient wisdom of stone and carries the history of the whole planet in its soil. It is a vast land that remembers its past, present and future, almost forgotten, it silently continues its healing record-keeping as it has since the beginning of time.
Close to the capital shore there lies a massive block of light which gives Helsinki a contrasting energy to the rest of the country; here the energy is slightly lighter, moving freely as the water it borders with.
In the Western seaside earth and water create a unique creative energy, this is the space that helps you express, release and let go of all that has been housed in your heart and body.
The North, the East, the South and the West create borders, a healing safe space for the light and nature to roam free, for earth to flourish and heal. And slowly, slowly, but surely the earth is rising again into power after a long slumber, taking its space in the North as one of the safe havens on the globe.
WALK WITH AN OPEN HEART & BE GUIDED BY THE EARTH
This land is alive, more alive than one might think – step on it with respect, curiously follow its lead and allow it to guide you to the healing you need.
Allow the slow and heavy energy, the natural cycles of life and the rest and recovering it shelters, and thank the earth, water and light for their help.
Walk into this sacred space with your heart open, and you’ll find the infinite healing love of the earth embracing you with all its force.
