Polar Bear Wisdom

Polar Bear the Great Wanderer is a gentle mentor and fierce protector who travels through all the realms with unfailing stamina. She teaches us not to be afraid to travel in solitude and silence for a while, to take a rest and to find balance within ourselves.

She is fearless and invites us to leave what we know and are used to behind, to step out of our comfort zone and face our challenges head on. Nanoq says, “Meet the gaze of the unknown, look into its eyes and walk tall and powerful into new beginnings.”
 
Nanoq says, „In the center of your heart, there is an ember, tiny, yet as strong as the winter sun. With every step you take through the desert of ice and frost, it is growing stronger, every breath nourishing the spark that has been lit inside you, a fire growing, a dream rekindled, a heart unstoppable.”

„In the center of your heart, there is an ember, tiny, yet as strong as the winter sun. With every step you take through the desert of ice and frost, it is growing stronger, every breath nourishing the spark that has been lit inside you, a fire growing, a dream rekindled, a heart unstoppable.”

​Polar Bear is very protective of her cubs. She says, “Trust yourself and leave fear behind when standing up for your loved ones and yourself. Everything you need you bear within: a fire in your heart to warm you, a spirit unbreakable and the courage to face the harshest of winters.”
