Dropping the Armour - Allowing Love in

Since the new moon, the energy has been intense. So much has been rising to the surface….old patterns, buried emotions, hidden fears. I know many of us have been feeling it in different ways. For me, what came through was powerful and life-changing. Last week in a yin yoga class, Spirit spoke to me loud and clear.

"It’s time to drop the armour."

The words pierced straight through me. I cried right there in class, surrounded by strangers, because I realised how much of my life I’ve been in protector mode. For so long, I’ve dedicated my energy to shielding my heart. And here’s the t - when we build armour around our heart, at first it feels protective. But over time, it hardens. It doesn’t just keep out the pain, it also blocks us from receiving love. It becomes less of a shield and more of a wall. Even though I already knew this. That realisation shook me. I sat in my car afterward, crying for 30 minutes straight, finally admitting to myself - I’ve been protecting for so long, and my spirit is ready to let it go.

A few days later, I went into a breathwork session and shared this with my facilitator. As I breathed, my body felt cold, then frozen stuck. He asked me what the sensation represented.

“Fear,” I replied.

“What do you need to move through this fear?” he asked.

“Safety. And to feel supported.”

As soon as I spoke those words, waves of emotion poured out of me. My heart cracked open and I cried deeply, and a memory surfaced…

A few days ago, my daughter came home dysregulated from school. She was sobbing and overwhelmed. My partner was holding space in his own way, but when tapped out because it was too much for him, I walked into the room. She was screaming, “Help, help!” and without a word, I opened my arms and she jumped straight into my arms.

The moment I held her, she softened. Her crying stopped almost instantly, her body melted into mine, and minutes later she returned to drawing, her safe place, her joy.

That moment reminded me that the safety I had longed for as a child, I now get to offer. That some of my most painful experiences, is now a gift. I get to provide safety, support, and a sense of being deeply held…for my children, for the clients I walk with, for every soul that Spirit brings to me. And it is so beautiful to know that my childen will one day becomes mothers and know exactly how to hold their children in the deepest love and support. This is how we break generational patterns.

So in that session, I felt my armour finally dissolve. What was left was pain, grief, sadness, decades of uncried tears. It was overwhelming, like floodgates bursting open. But Spirit whispered gently -

"We’ve got you."

So I let it pour. And when I sat up at the end, I realised - this is what I asked for, to consciously drop the armour. And to be honest, it felt terrifying to walk through the world without it. But even in the fear, I felt this truth…

I am safe.
I am supported.
I don’t know what’s ahead, but I know I will always be more than okay.

The beauty of the divine feminine right? stepping into the unknown…

So maybe you’ve built your own armour too, the layers of protection we carry to keep ourselves from being hurt. But what if that same armour has also been keeping love out?

So this week, I invite you to gently notice where you’ve been holding on to your armour, the layers of protection we carry to keep ourselves from being hurt. But what if that same armour has also been keeping love out? What if Spirit is whispering to you, too - It’s time to lay it down to rest. We don’t need to be in battle anymore.

So my loves, I will leave you with some powerful journal questions but if you are feeling the call to dive into the body to finally drop the armour. I’m here.

🪞 Journal Reflections

Where in my life do I notice myself armouring my heart?

What am I truly protecting myself from?

What does safety look and feel like for me right now?

What would it mean to allow love to enter more fully?

If I imagined Spirit whispering “We’ve got you,” what armour would I be ready to lay down?

What gifts have been born from my deepest wounds? How can I offer those gifts to others?

"Wow, I am just so in awe of you, Raizza.
I have had the honour of having two sessions now.

I reached out when my life had become one of chaos. I was distressed, disconnected, heading towards burnout and apathy. You saw me, you heard me, you felt me. After my first session, I felt a calmness I had not experienced for a while.

I had my second session today and shifted my biggest wounds. I feel safe — safer than I have ever been. I feel light, I feel love, aligned, connected, and I am actually looking forward to what comes next.

Thank you for your kindness and for being part of my journey. I cannot wait to connect again. I feel blessed to be gently guided back to me." 💖🌸💕
