There's no hiding in the desert - the desert has a way of bringing things to the surface fast.

Sometimes in order to re-member who we are, we are dis-membered of who/what we are not. Dis-memberment, emptiness, re-memberment – so the cycle goes.

In my experience, holding on to parts of myself that are no longer true, relevant or useful creates feelings of heaviness, restlessness and depression. This is usually a sign for me that something new wants to come forward, but there's no space for it with my current structures and beliefs.
