22 & 23 February 2025
Some experiences don’t begin with a big decision.
Sometimes, it’s a quiet calling from within, something gentle that reminds you:
“You’ve been out of touch with yourself for a while.”
That’s how I found myself attending a two-day offline OH Card workshop guided by LEE CHEANG SUAT.
I didn’t go because I planned to become a practitioner, or because I wanted to add another title.
I went because I missed the feeling of hearing my own thoughts.
For a long time, I’d been running through life, checking off tasks, solving problems, showing up for others.
But somewhere along the way, I stopped showing up for myself.
The workshop wasn’t dramatic or life-altering in any loud way.
It was calm, light-hearted, but deeply sincere.
LEE CHEANG SUAT’s teaching was filled with humor and patience.
He made things simple, without oversimplifying.
He helped us see that the answers we’re searching for outside often already exist quietly within.
OH Cards, as I’ve come to understand them, are not a tool to predict the future or to label the past.
They are like small bridges, helping us cross over to the quieter parts of ourselves.
Through images and words, they ask questions we often forget to ask:
“How are you feeling, really?”
“What are you holding on to?”
“What part of you needs to be heard today?”
During those two days, something subtle shifted.
I didn’t suddenly become enlightened.
But I began to notice the parts of me that had gone silent.
And more importantly, I began to sit with them, gently.
It reminded me that self-awareness is not a performance.
It doesn’t need to be loud or seen.
Sometimes, it just means having an honest moment with yourself.
I walked away from the course not with a certificate I wanted to show off, but with a tool I wanted to use quietly, for myself.
To reconnect when I feel lost.
To pause when I’m overwhelmed.
To listen when my inner voice feels small.
If you’ve ever felt like you’ve been running on autopilot,
if you’ve felt the distance growing between your actions and your emotions,
maybe something like this could offer you a way back.
Not a solution, but a space.
Sometimes, it’s not about fixing yourself.
It’s about remembering how to be with yourself.
And in a world that constantly asks us to prove, achieve, and perform,
learning to pause and look inward might just be the most honest thing we can do.
