A Week in NYC | friends, ancestral healing, and feeling alive

"I didn't realize that so much of the disease I felt in the world was a result of not feeling safe within my internal one" You shifted my perspective, it really resonated with me ❤🌾🌿

Yeah I don’t talk to my parents or siblings like that either. I don’t relate to people that call their parents their best friends and as people to rely on. Thankfully, I’ve unpacked it and had vulnerable convos with my brother and dad, but it’s still generally weird around my family. My upbringing was pretty emotionally unavailable.

[@dianakim9970]

[@katieharra]

she shoulddddd

[@ytuseracct]

You're actually lucky that your dad opened up about his own traumas because not a lot of parents are willing to do that

[@TheEyesThrone]

because they're just as anxious as us. As I myself am soon to be 19 and moving country, I catch glimpses into my parents lives that blow my mind for I do the same. So with that logic, they go through the same mental trials as us and find it just as hard to show it. This realisation has started to break that wall.

[@ambireptorm]

its really common in bipoc parents too because of a toxic sense of "respect" for elders that they cant share what they experienced otherwise it would feel like they are badmouthing their parents. i know my parents went thru shit but they won't tell me what for that reason specifically that they dont want to badmouth my gparents and also change my views of them. which is funny bc my gparents live on the other side of the planet and i have met them like 3x in my life and dont know them anyways. my parents are my only family, but in their effort to make me feel more connected to my gparents they have put roadblocks on my ability to connect with them, the only ppl i do have.

[@Jeremy-sj3pr]

@@ambireptorm My parents never talk negatively about their parents, but occasionally I hear snippets of what they went through.

[@DOOMZIGGY]

Hitomi had embodied a serious guide in my life these past couple years. It is so validating to feel not so alone in my journey and she has given me so much hope that there are people on a similar journey as I am. I’m a weirdo, yes, but there are others out there that are just as weird, spiritual and sensitive, that just want to experience the same beauty In life that I do. I am forever grateful for the reminders and lessons she brings into being ♥️

[@destinyhart9860]

this made me tear up being 16 I have realized that my family dynamic isn’t normal I see my own father as a stranger and I am building resentment to mother for forcing me to raise myself and playing the victim when I act grown. I also seem to be the black sheep in my family and it’s like everyone who is my family are strangers who I’m stuck around. I want to be safe like you but even with therapy I still can’t admit my family problems. I’m worried my detachment from others and not caring about relationships will be judged. But your a safe place now so thank you.

[@kurlykaitlyn]

I promise you destiny, time heals wounds. And so does being vulnerable. It’s unbelievably hard when you’re starting or early in this journey, but one day you’ll look back from a happy healthy life and be proud of yourself and also wonder how you got through it. But I empathize with you because the part when you’re realizing “this isn’t normal” is scary and can be heartbreaking. Forces you to let go of simple joys you might never even had. When I was 21 I started working at a community health store in this hippie square. I stayed four years and healed sooo much to the point where I’m a hugger, I’ve actually cried in front of people and on them! These people asked me about my past and where I came from and further told me I’m worth so much more! I was encouraged to be my funny weird self. They were a family for some years and I chose to say goodbye and move on the next chapter of my life happily. I feel like life is just full of experiences and when it starts at the bottom it just gets better over the years as long as you keep being vulnerable and open. You’ll find your people who treat you with a lot love, and while they tease you they’ll also worry about you and baby you because you matter ❤️

[@destinyhart9860]

@@kurlykaitlyn thank you so much for the sweet comments this made my day

[@jania35]

I’m sending you so much love and light!❤️❤️

[@emilyc7727]

I’m the same exact way, hugs

[@spunkiQT]

It's so hard to be vulnerable. Maybe you could be able to gradually share bits of your family dynamics with you therapist and just tell them you only feel comfortable and stable sharing whatever you're able to and whenever. Or if you have a friend you feel safe with maybe you could start with them. I found that once I met other friends who were able to be open about struggles or questions or feelings around their upbringing, the more I was able to share a little bit. But it's so so true that vulnerability is a strength. It can feel so destabilizing to be vulnerable, but I do think that the more in tune you are with your emotions and the more you work through them, the stronger you'll be as a whole. I'm on a journey to be more vulnerable myself, and just about to start therapy. Kudos to you for starting therapy at all!

[@kurlykaitlyn]

I let go of my “blood family” a long time ago. I’ve also always been different and growing up in the abuse, my little mantra from a very young age was telling myself that it’s not forever. That what I was experiencing wasn’t normal and I will have a wonderful life as an adult when I am free. I’m 26 now. I didn’t talk to my father or see him in over 7 years. But I went one day to tell him I forgive him and thanked him for trying because I knew he did care about me. He was a raging Alcoholic. And holy **** my dad actually told me it’s because of my absence he reflected and recognizes he was angry and not a good father but that he wanted to be good. And my mother is a complete narcissist. I never loved my father really but I loved my mom and wanted to feel love from her. But some people, even parents, don’t have the capacity to love anyone. I’m so sorry to all others who have parents that don’t love them or care. That hurt far more than my fathers scary and explosive anger episodes. I think it can be a very healing thing to walk away for some time, even years, to experience the world openly and without your past on your shoulder. See there is good, and some people truly are so loving and friends can be paternal. Obviously trauma and grief can follow us around, but it gets easier every year. living the life I always thought of living since I was very little. And I don’t miss my “family” And, sometimes you’ll encounter people who don’t understand and assume you’re a terrible person because you don’t miss or love your family….I just tell him how lucky they are to not understand. There’s no shame in walking away or not loving a family that shoves you down again and again and again.

[@ronnielola6594]

Am 41 And I do understand exactly what you're talking about... but the worst part is waiting for the apology from them that I will never receive... because since they are your parents...they think they own u....💔... blood is not what makes a family.... and the worst part is being judged by people who have never had the same experience....now I rather be alone...than being sorrounded with people who make me feel alone....I wish you all the best in your life...am sure your a beautiful soul.❤️

[@kurlykaitlyn]

@@ronnielola6594 oh yes I waited and hoped for years my mother would apologize or even just once tell me I’m wonderful or that she’s happy to have me or loves me. When I confronted her on all the shit I simply asked if she loves me and there was a pause until she starts shouting into the phone “people loved you! They thought you were so cute and wanted to hold you all the time” 🙄 I’ve made peace by accepting she didn’t love me(or want me) and it’s not my fault. And actually, both my parents(they’ve been divorced and hated eachother for years), but both have told me I’ve got more courage and strength than anyone they know and it doesn’t come from either of them. LOL that’s for sure and that was the nicest thing they’ve said to me. We’re worth so much more than to stay small and beg for anyone to love and appreciate us. There’s billions of other people in the world and thousands that would cherish us as we are ❤️

Didn’t realize how much I needed this video. I have had the same family issues for awhile. Legit everything you touched on, from parents, to grandparents, and I always felt some type of way about it!! An odd feeling. It feels amazing knowing more people experience this. Not that it’s a good thing. But it’s something I overthink and never knew anyone else who experienced the same thing. I always felt odd. Thank you for being brave enough to be so open, and share. Thank you for creating a safe space for others to do the same. Reading the comments, and seeing how many people can relate to these “issues” that made me feel even more isolated, than I already do, has given be hope and inspiration to heal them. It’s also just nice to feel seen. Blessings to you all ✨🧡

I dont have anyone to trust in my family either. I have accepted that. I’m glad your dad was mature and open enough to listen to you and share his trauma. Nothing like that will happen in my family due to their gaslighting and self victimizing and dismissing. I would have to disagree I chose my parents.

[@pagethreemodel]

I know what you mean ❤️

[@mysticmaidenmagic]

i’m grateful for these retrogrades and how many issues they’ve brought up within me. the things that i’ve internalized since i was little are now being let out and released. it hurts so much to feel it all over again but i know i’m healing :) you’ve literally changed my life and how i perceive pain. i embrace every feeling and allow myself to take up space now. you’re a wonderful woman hitomi. thank you so much

[@Lordtamarind]

I thought I was the only that didn’t speak to my parents/family like that... love the fact that I’ve came across your channel I relate so much!

[@starrhewitt8456]

Hitomi, you have such a way with words and sound so intentional and eloquent when you speak. You spread all the positivity I wish everyone could let themselves learn to experience. Your intelligence shines through and inspires me on my never-ending life-long spiritual journey so much more than you know. I resonate with a lot that you say and experience and have been experiencing more gratitude and appreciation for life that my younger self never had. I think about things in a different way and approach life with a more optimistic mindset. And what you said about checking in with yourself to make sure you’ve actually been taking care of yourself rather than getting caught up in an anxious always moving and thinking about putting others first (even when you don’t mean to) you were right and it can be energetically exhausting. I wish I could put myself out there and completely release my fear of people I know and grew up with judging me. People I don’t even care about I subconsciously let influence my decisions and I’m working on that. But for now I think you’re executing all the material I want people to understand just as good as I could if not better. Not to say that I shouldn’t do my own thing and inspire people just because you already do..we could both thrive and empower each other, but it’s an internal fear I’m still working towards getting over (I also don’t have any real 5-10 year plan and I’m scared to risk putting myself in the internet in case I say something misleading or that gets misinterpreted or just doesn’t age well with my life path). I also find myself feeling not credible enough or like I’m just a kid saying recycled positive posts online but I want to voice what I truly believe and understand now about the world. It’s just difficult because I know my younger self heard all the same things I want to preach and didn’t believe it till a switch in my mind flipped and I decided to actively make the changes and perceive my world differently. Anyways sorry for the rant but thank you for posting and being so honest and knowledgeable.

[@starrhewitt8456]

Holy shit sorry for the novel 😅I’m only halfway through the video too but I always have so much to contribute to what you talk about

[@iamlindavilela]

I adore you hitomi, thank you for opening up about your family trauma. i feel inspired to heal from mine. i also feel distant form my parents, always have. growing up my dad was an alcoholic in denial, and still is. my mum hated their marriage and she disappeared into house chores. i felt emotionally alone and uncared for all my childhood. my home was never a happy or safe place for me to exist and be. i didn't feel seen or heard my ano of them. i wonder how many people grow up like this, without the respect & love they deserve. thank you for sharing your path, it is deeply healing for me. when you said your mom told you "she chose you", it made me emotional because i remember being a teenager and hearing my mom say she didn't want to get pregnant with me because she wasn't ready, that my dad was the one who could not stop insisting on having kids. it was deeply hurtful. i felt like i wasn't wanted or welcomed in the family. i grew up with their anger towards each other always present in my home, my (un)safe space. i thought that's just the way it was with everybody, because my grandparents were like that with each other too. they were all miserable and i felt miserable too. I wasn't allowed to feel joyful. i thought i was wrong and useless, undeserving of their joy & love. i'm slowly diving deeper on my knowing and reframing my entire reality now. even though you've never met me, i've cried with your videos and i've felt immense joy watching you heal and smile from the heart. thank you. i love your stillness and your gentle heart. thank you for showing me how tender and loving i can become. love you lots!

[@kristinandj]

"Ancestral healing". A lesson that keeps coming over and over to me at the same periods. And the more I heal, listen, let go of anger and forgive the more things become easier with my family, even though things can get hard. and trigger us all. My younger self would never believe that her parents would sit with me around a table for a family therapy. But it happened and for a good reason. Thank you Hitomi for opening up about these subjects, its means a lot !

[@Kiyoooooo]

I hope one day I can have a conversation with my family and to just spill out all of my emotions to them without it turning into an argument. Little by little, I try.

[@yourstrulyniah126]

The way I relate to you is so heart warming . I deal with feeling so belittled everyday, from family, friends, small encounters, the people who are suppose to keep me safe, the people I always put before me & make myself uncomfortable for. It’s never enough, & I’m never heard. I never know if I’m being too much and too little and find myself revolving around everyone. I’m tired of tippy toeing, saying okay when it’s not okay, laughing it off, feeling silenced and discouraged, feeling mocked, angry, sadness and having no other outlet but myself, art, music, nature, photography all these things bring me peace, & then being ridiculed for it, or to snap out of it and constantly reminded how my reality isn’t really mine but I can’t wait to find people who do the same & will accept me for me. I’m truly taking the steps. Much love 💗

[@avarachel]

[@SimplySami13]

wow i’ve never related harder about the family thing. we all barely talk and my partner talks to his mom and dad every day, calling them all the time, facetiming his sister and his sister facetimes her mom every single day multiple times and it just makes me feel so weird... there’s this awkward barrier between my family where we brush everything under the rug when we finally go out to dinner and pretend everything is normal lol idk man i’m just glad i can relate to this though 💓

[@oliviarussell3791]

This is a random question, but you mention that when negative emotions arise in your life, it's an opportunity to unpack it and explore why this feeling is happening. I think that's amazing and I have often tried to do the same in my life, but to be honest, I sometimes just get overwhelmed and just simply tired of having to unpack so many things and deal with so many issues. This feeling often keeps me from doing anything, just because I'm simply so tired of putting in so much emotionally exhausting effort. Have you ever felt anything like this, and if so, how do you deal with it?

[@lilyjazmi193]

First off, your feelings are very valid. Its hard to face yourself and your issues, especially when you're not used to giving yourself the emotional space to do so. Whenever you feel overwhelmed, breathe. You dont have to figure things out right away and you dont have to deal with everything at the same time. I think just being aware of your emotions, without being carried away by them, is a great first step. Be patient with yourself and show compassion to the hurt parts of you. Healing takes time

[@alyssamae8548]

Agree with everything the other person said. if it's happening when you're too exhausted to unpack it, just witness it, acknowledge it. Then breath and go forward. Unpack it a different time. This is something you practice at and get better at and it's so great that you want to do this. To release yourself from that pain, I'm truly happy for you on that journey 🥰

[@johanabi]

I know hitomi had spoken about how therapy hasn’t always been the right live for her, but for a lot of people (ohhh the right provider) it’s really healing ♥️ I do EMDR with a trauma-focused therapist and I feel like I’m made great strides in the last year alone

[@johanabi]

Everyone is different though, but it’s important to know that there are a lot of ways to grow and heal ♥️

[@blossomtrees271]

sometime if I feel really overwhelmed I will do something like a crossword or sudoku instead of something creative (unless I feel like it) and it gives you a focus on something else for a little while and then go back to a creative outlet to get it out - journal, draw, scream into a field or if you’re in a city a cup or something just to let go! honestly it helps

Thank you for sharing about your family. I always feel guilty not talking to my siblings as much but with everything that happened when we were kids it makes sense that we barely have a connection nowadays. It’s really helpful to hear you doing the work and helping the rest of us figure out how to move forward. I’m in therapy now and working on forgiveness and acknowledging all the emotions in my psyche. It’s hard to love ourselves back to life when we’ve been told “you’re too sensitive or you’re overreacting” our entire lives. My inner child just wants to be acknowledged and heard. This is crazy shadow work and I’m glad I’m not the only one on this journey.

[@kiyanania]

I definitely felt this whole video. Idk about the past projections meaning they don’t love you less but I do think it shows a lack of wanting to show love in a vulnerable way. Projections stem from a place of insecurity and lack of faith to me which is not derived from a foundation of love. I think there’s definitely a way to set boundaries with children and still show love through those boundaries, instead of projecting. Maybe that’s just me. It’s nice to see you opening up to people you’ve felt closed off too.

that intro was incredible. i see so much of myself in you (not feeling safe, and on the journey of seeking that safety within myself). learning that once i’m my own anchor, i’ll finally feel at peace no matter where i am. brought me to tears, thank you for this❤️

[@loudnr6543]

I love you Hitomi, your words are the most soothing and healing. Thank you for existing, you are an angel.

[@abin.3402]

You are a light-beam on KZbin 💫Your words shine through and cause me to shift thought patterns I had ✨🌻

[@joymae]

You are perfect, thank you for being so vulnerable with us. Your words and vibration are so so beautiful you are such a kind soul.

"Focusing on what brings me joy right now" love that ❤ it's what I came to realize and do as well this last year and it's been so freeing

[@enbykenz]

thank you for being a guide for so many people. This resonated so much. I’ve been focusing a lot on the transition from knowing to truly Being aligned with spiritual wisdom. sending everyone love during their process 💞

[@annael87]

You are a true inspiration. Your videos feel like such a blessing and gift to receive. You provide so much knowledge and awareness in each one I feel I could watch one video 100 times and still learn something new each time. And spoken so eloquently. Thank you for being you. Also Ram Dass had said, “If you think you’re enlightened, go spend a week with your family,” lol! So that is a huge thing that were able to hold true and find some healing there. It’s all an ongoing process. Much love Hitomi ♥️

[@anacarolinablanco3330]

i love these big vlogs hitomi. thank you. these days have been like a spiritual rite of passage for me and ive been sleeping a lot and figuring out things about my why and my life. i love all these different casual and deep things you share and how you word your spirit always. thanks babe. my inspiration in your being and way of life makes me feel so joyful that that simply means those things are also in me and that i can make my life be as i would want it. its hard being from a subdeveloped country and a student to think about producing and saving and financial independence but ive been in a path of acceptance and flow, listening to my spiritual guides.. thank you jjst thank you.

[@gabbyw674]

[@joyfulmothering4430]

Hitomi, you are love and light. You are such an encouraging being. Thank you for being you. Thank you for radically radiating love 💫😘

[@danajhadavis]

It’s the poetry for me, you better speak from ya heart

[@Mandarain]

I am so thankful for your open and raw creativity that you share with us, your videos are so beautiful and you are such a stunning woman in your entirety, your journey, your voice and the words of wisdom you speak are truly inspiring. Thank YOU for being, just as you are :)

[@spunkiQT]

I'm so happy you were able to open up and have that vulnerable connection with him and it was reciprocated! That's amazing. You bring up a lot of really profound insights and I lovee how you take a more spiritual perspective that doesn't just shame.

[@Olivegreeennn]

Watching your videos always puts me in such a happy and soft mood. ✨

[@zainapamphile386]

I resonate with this entire video sooo much! so many similar experiences wow. Honestly you are the first spiritual person I found on social media who is so authentic and who shares so much of their life. So much helpful information, basically all the things people don't speak about you do. The way you share all of you with the world is sooo inspiring. You are so strong and powerful , its people like you who really remind us that vulnerability isn't a weakness but in reality a major strength. What you do is sooooo hard for most to do and I thank you for it. I do pray that more and more I will heal and be more vulnerable and share my awesome light with the world. Sending beautiful love and light your way!

[@kattensilverregn340]

Thank you hitomi for spending this time with me, it means a lot

[@rioscolinalondra5295]

Hitomi you are pure love and pure light💓

[@lifesquixotic]

I am so glad i found your channel Hitomi. I’ve grown with you! I’ve followed you for years through a formative time in my life. I love that you wear your heart on your sleeve. I love that you share your vulnerability. I ran into you on at electric forest and felt like i was meeting a fairy. So much love to you, lady. I’m so proud of your growth and grateful for your presence!

[@laralou594]

I want to thank you so much for those videos but even more for the messages in those. Your words make me feel safe and seen even tho i am in an really unstable place in myself at the moment. I am so happy that i found you.🌱

[@ashleyodaliz9630]

I truly loved the beginning when you spoke about what's true for you it really impacted me in a good way

[@AligningGoddess]

My heart is so warmed watching and empathizing with your videos. So free and at peace you are. Many more blessings, love 🙏🏽♥️

[@asaldel]

I am truly so appreciative for how open you are with us all. It is always so insane to me how deeply I resonate with your thoughts, sending you much love from la 💚

[@cherryhtml]

I’ve always admired your candor about the difficult things you’ve experienced in life, and I’m really happy that you’ve gotten to a place in your mental health journey where you can reflect back on those experiences and be proud of yourself for how far you’ve come, Hitomi. Thank you for speaking so truthfully and reminding us that sensitivity and emotions are not something to be ashamed of 🤍
