When I dance, I connect with something deeper than words ✨✨✨

With my body, my breath, my emotions.
With the parts of me that don’t need to explain themselves.

I connect with pleasure, with freedom, with softness.
With my feminine energy.
With the ground beneath me and the life moving through me 💗

Sometimes I dance to express what I feel…
Sometimes to release…
Others simply because it feels good to be alive!

When I dance, I come back to myself ♥️

Big thanks to MEDICINE for creating a space where I could tap into this magic, move freely, and remember the joy of simply being alive and in my body.

Love you,
Constanza Aphrodite 🌹

Trauma is not simply what happened to you 🙏

It is what happened inside you when something was too much, too soon, too overwhelming… or when something you needed was missing.

When there wasn’t enough safety, support, protection, or connection to help your system deal with what you were going through.

What stays with us is not always a conscious memory. Sometimes, it lives in the body.

In not being able to relax, even when everything is okay.
In always expecting something to go wrong.
In shutting down when emotions feel too much.
In disconnecting from your body, your needs, or your feelings.
In finding it hard to trust, to receive, or to let people get close.

These are ways we learned to protect ourselves...

Hypervigilance, emotional numbness, avoidance, disconnection, and even dissociation can be ways the nervous system learned to protect us from something we could not fully process at the time.

Very often, these ways of protecting ourselves started in childhood, when we had very little power and very few choices.

Like the child who became very aware of everyone’s moods…
Or the child who stopped asking for what they needed and became the easy one…

Their nervous system was learning how to survive what was happening around them, and also what was missing.

So when we work with trauma, the question is not only:
How do I get rid of this pattern?
It can also be:
What is this pattern trying to protect me from?
When did I learn that I needed this?
What would I need now to feel safe enough to respond differently?

Because every symptom has a story & every protection has a reason.

And underneath what we may see as a problem, there is often a part of us that once found the best way it could to survive.

The work is not to fight that part… It is to understand it.

Being Latina is a gift ❤️

These last two weeks, moving through different festivals, surrounded by medicine people, different cultures, tribes and communities, I’ve been reminded of something I feel in my blood…

We are a beautiful mixture of so many worlds.

Indigenous. African. European.
Black, white, brown, and everything in between.

Our history is complex. We carry the wounds of colonisation, but also the wisdom, traditions and resilience of the people who came before us.

And somehow, all of these different roots live within us.

In our traditions.
In our families.
In the way we gather.
In our music and our dance.
In the warmth we give.
In the way we love.
In our sensitivity.
In our passion.
In our amazing sense of humour.
In the way we feel life so deeply.
In the connection with the land and all the elements.

Over these last weeks, I’ve met so many brothers and sisters from across Latin America, specially South America, where I’m from ♥️🤗

And there was something so beautiful about that recognition.

That feeling of I know you, we are family.

Even though we come from different countries, different families, different histories… there is something that connects us.

Something warm & alive… difficult to describe with words.

We carry many cultures within us.
Many stories.
Many ancestors.
Many contradictions.

And I think there is something incredibly powerful about embracing all of it.

Not needing to be one thing.

But being the beautiful mixture that we are.

❤️🌎

Con mucho amor,

For me real intimacy starts with how much you are willing to know yourself…
How conscious you are about yourself, your shadows, your fears…
And from that consciousness, how much you accept yourself.

The real question here is the difference between SEEKING AND FACING…

You can go to an intimacy workshop, and it can show you a part of yourself. But if you’re not willing to actually look at it, if you ignore it, bypass it, move on to the next thing, nothing really changes.

The more you know and accept yourself, REALLY, not just the curated parts, the less afraid you are of being truly seen by someone else. There’s less left to hide, because you’ve already become willing to meet yourself.

And what you haven’t looked at in yourself doesn’t just disappear. It shows up anyway… in your reactions, your fears, your patterns with the people closest to you.

This isn’t about arriving somewhere. It’s a practice. A little more self-knowledge, a little more awareness, every day.

And yes, I believe that there are many parts that we can truly know in relationship to another person…

In therapy, my therapist reflects back parts of me I hadn’t seen on my own. In friendships, in past relationships, my triggers show me exactly where I still have more to meet in myself.

So maybe it’s not one or the other. I do the work alone. And relationship keeps showing me the rest.

Which brings me to the real question…

If we’re not willing to look within, on our own, and through what others reflect back to us, how can we ever be truly intimate with someone else?

Love you,

In my practice, I meet so many people who are afraid of being alone.

And if I’m honest, I’ve been there too. Sometimes, I still am.

The fear of being alone is a deeply human experience. We are social beings, so of course parts of us long to be with others.

But over the years, I’ve discovered that there is something exquisite that happens when we learn to be with ourselves.

Solitude has been the birthplace of some of humanity’s most profound art, philosophy, poetry, and insight. It is often in the quiet that creativity awakens and wisdom begins to speak.

Solitude is not the absence of connection. It is the presence of ourselves.

When we stop trying to escape our own company, we begin to listen. We notice our thoughts, our emotions, our longings, and the parts of us that have been waiting to be met.

Slowly, being alone becomes a pathway to clarity, wisdom, creativity, and a more authentic connection…not only with ourselves, but also with others.

Because the relationship we’ll have for our entire lives is the one we have with ourselves.

And perhaps solitude isn’t something to fear. Perhaps it’s an invitation to come home.

With love,

Your inner critic didn’t come from nowhere. It came from somewhere that once needed protecting.

Here’s how to actually work with it, starting today:

1. Name it. Next time it speaks, say internally: “This is my critic part, not me.” That tiny separation changes everything, you stop being blended with the voice and start being able to observe it.

2. Ask what it’s afraid of. Every harsh inner voice is trying to prevent something like rejection, failure, being caught off guard. Ask: “What are you scared will happen if you go quiet?”

3. Thank it, don’t fight it. It became loud to protect a much younger version of you. Fighting it makes it louder. Acknowledging it, even saying “thank you, I’ve got this now” starts to soften it over time.

This isn’t about silencing your inner critic overnight. It’s about building a different relationship with it… one where you’re not at war with your own parts.

If this resonated, save it for the next time that voice gets loud. And if you know someone who needs to hear this, send it to them. ♥️🪻

How honest are you with yourself?

Not with others…
With yourself.

Can you admit when you’re exhausted instead of saying, “I’m fine”?
Can you acknowledge that a relationship no longer feels nourishing?
Can you recognize that what you’re calling “peace” might actually be avoidance?
Or that what you’re calling “being strong” might be a part of you that has learned not to feel?

Self-honesty isn’t about judging yourself.
It’s about seeing yourself clearly 🫶🏻

Many of us learned to survive by disconnecting from our truth. We became who we needed to be to be loved, accepted, or safe.

Everything starts to change the moment we ask:
“What is actually true for me right now?”

Sometimes the answer is beautiful.
Sometimes it’s uncomfortable.
Both deserve compassion.

The more honest you become with yourself, the less energy you spend pretending.
And the more your life begins to reflect who you truly are, not who you learned you had to be… ✨✨✨

There is something beautiful about no longer carrying the weight of a version of yourself that was built for survival. From that place, your choices become more aligned, your relationships become more authentic, and your life begins to feel like it truly belongs to you.

Guru Purnima is one of the most sacred days in the yogic tradition.

A day to honor, with gratitude and devotion, every teacher who helped us see what we couldn’t see alone.

Not just the people, but also our experiences. The ceremonies. The losses. The beautiful and painful moments that cracked something open in us and changed everything.

In Sanskrit, Guru means the one who dispels darkness. Gu: darkness, ignorance (ajñāna)
Ru: remover, dispeller

The real Guru doesn’t do the work for you. The Guru holds the mirror. And what you choose to do with your own reflection, that is where the real journey begins.

I have been so blessed to have teachers in my life who saw in me what I couldn’t yet see in myself. Who pointed back toward my own inner light. And I carry them with me every single day.

The invitation today is to become and honour our own inner Guru.

Because we can read all the books. Listen to all the podcasts. Fill ourselves with knowledge and wisdom from every corner of the world.

And still, if we are not living what we know, if we are not embodying it in our daily choices, in the way we love, in the way we show up for ourselves, none of it really lands.

Real wisdom lives in the body. Not the mind.

Today I recommit to that path. Not to knowing more, but to living more deeply what I already know.

Happy Guru Purnima to everyone celebrating today 🌕

Gratitude to my yoga teachers Yoga & Traditional Ta**ra School / Lineage Based Shivoham Ta**ra | School of Ancient Traditional Ta**ra The Yoga Institute

How many times has your mind convinced you that something was wrong…

…only for reality to prove otherwise?

Our nervous system doesn’t just remember what happened.

It also learns to anticipate what might happen, based on old experiences.

That’s why uncertainty can feel like danger.
Why silence can feel like rejection.

Not because it’s true.

Because somewhere along the way, your system learned that it had to protect you.

Healing isn’t about never having those thoughts again.

It’s about noticing when an old protective story is taking over and choosing to pause before believing it.

The more we can meet these moments with curiosity instead of certainty, the more freedom we create.

✨ A trigger isn’t proof that something is wrong.
It’s an invitation to slow down, listen, and respond from who you are today, not from what you had to survive yesterday.

Love you,

Constanza Aphrodite ♥️🌹

Küme Ñuke antü 🌹🌍✨

Honoring all the mothers today and always! The women who gave birth, the women who longed to, the women who chose not to, and still carry deep love, care, and devotion in so many forms 💗

Honouring those who mother through presence, through guidance, through friendship, through creativity, through holding life in all its expressions.

I’m deeply grateful for my own mother, her heart, her presence, and all the ways she has held, guided, and loved through every season of my life.

I also honour Mother Earth, the great womb that holds us all, nourishes us, teaches us, and reminds us of the sacred rhythm of creation, destruction, and rebirth.

In Mapudungun, the word for mother is Ñuke… a word that carries lineage, land, and the quiet continuity of life passing through generations.

May we remember the sacredness of the feminine that births, holds, and transforms life itself.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible mothers and to this beautiful Earth that continues to mother us every single day.

From the land that birth me, Chile… with gratitude, love, and reverence. 🌍✨

Love you,
Constanza Aphrodite 🪶🌹♥️
