**🔼 Up:** [[🆕 Posts|Posts]] --- At the start of this year (it’s now September 2024), so many synchronistic converging moments collided in a big bang which to me, signalled the start of my journey home—to myself, to my inner child, to my essence and into the richness and spaciousness of my inner world. I was catapulted into a version of myself that I could only ever catch fleeting glimpses of, and I came onto the internet to write, to create, to explore and to express from what felt to be like my truest essence. I invested in my development heavily, I took writing on social media semi-seriously, I started to meet awesome people, I started a [Substack newsletter](https://letters.rocguiducci.com/), which brought me so much joy, I started publishing my Obsidian notes to the internet which excited me more than anything in this world, and I had a daily hand-written journalling practice, all of which would’ve been so far out of my usual character just a year ago. But in a sense, that all came tumbling down… that version of myself I was shown was just a dangling carrot, because it only served to show me that I had many more Parts of myself to work with, get to know, own and accept. When I started building this web of interconnected notes, I had no idea what it was going to be, what it was for, and what it would look like. All I knew was that for some weird reason, I was strangely pulled to the app that I’m creating this in right now—**Obsidian**. I stumbled on Obsidian exactly two years ago, enamoured with the idea of being able to create modular and interoperable notes that would help me form new connections and insights. I probably rebuilt my vault trying to create an elaborate “personal knowledge management (PKM)” system maybe six or seven times, but I didn’t really have a purpose back then. I can’t pretend that I know exactly what this project is going to be, but honestly, for someone like me with rigid [[Parts]] that place immense pressure on me to keep ‘doing’ more and more, while simultaneously disabling me from doing the exact things they pressure and criticise me to be doing… I’m exhausted from living within these constant thinking and doing loops that seem to plague modern society, and I am totally onboard with giving this thing the unconditional love it deserves by supporting it’s natural unfoldment. This entire time though, I’ve been longing for a place I could come to update and process what’s happening in my journey. A place to just write—a safe space. That’s what this is. Without putting too much pressure on myself, I’ll come to [[🆕 Posts|🆕 Posts]] to publish updates about my work here—how it’s progressing, what I’m working on, what’s capturing my curiosity—as well as my what’s happening on my own journey in healing and self-realisation. **On that note, for a real quick update:** 1. I’m about halfway through Level 1 of the [[🏫 Aletheia Coaching]] Program, which I feel honoured to be a part of. We’re currently deep into the mechanics of [[Parts Work]], and I am practice coaching with clients which has been both challenging and enriching. 2. One of the main focuses for the guide will be to build out [[Parts Work]] principles, insights, wisdom pieces and mini guides—there’s two lined up that I’m excited to start working on: [[Understanding the nature of Parts]] and [[Getting started with Parts Work]]. Lastly, around the same time I had the spark of inspiration to write these journal updates, I came across a song from a brilliant composer I’ve been listening to a lot lately—Erland Cooper. I had been listening to it on repeat as it was one of those songs for me which is able to directly access and touch my soul. A couple of days ago, I decided to ask ChatGPT what the title meant because nothing came up when I first searched Google (because I don’t think it’s actually a word)... nevertheless, Skreevar: “It is derived from the verb "skriva," which means "to write" in Swedish, Norwegian, and other Scandinavian languages. In this context, it could refer to someone who writes or scribes, such as a writer or author.” It means a lot to me because writing is how creative expression seems to flow through me.
