When I did my deep dive into forgiveness practices a few years ago, I dabbled with an abbreviated version of the Ho’oponopono clearing and prayer, but to be honest I didn’t see what it could give me that my Akashic Recordspractice couldn’t. My voice teacher recently taught me the song that goes with the prayer and it blew me away. It’s amazing how just a simple melody can carry the vibration of an entire clearing Read more…
What a funny few weeks it’s been. I felt such an influx of energy, knowing, and inspiration during the first quarter of the year, and then some time in May I felt myself go back into the Void. In this quiet space I just wanted to do two things. One was to be in nature, literally getting my hands and feet in the dirt of my garden. I’ve been asking nature to teach me about Read more…
I think I’ve been talking around this topic for some years now, but yesterday someone asked me what it’s like to hold space for others because she suddenly became aware of how she was holding the energy steady for her whole family during a challenging time. And this is truly the marvelous thing about ourselves as human beings: our Brilliant System helps us to be, do, express, and embody whatever necessary if we open to Read more…
It is robin nesting season and for the past few days this little bird has been attacking its own reflection in our west-facing windows. It does this for hours, starting at 5am. I’ve seen it resting in our maple and dogwood, but can’t find the actual nest. I don’t have an instinctive sense of robin medicine, but I do know that I’m left pondering where it is in my life I am fighting my own Read more…
Still deep in my learning about paradox and yesterday another one came to mind and brought a visceral experience with it. I’ve been taking voice lessons for the past couple of months, and my teacher was coaxing me to a high C. I wasn’t sure if I could hit it, so she asked me to find the ease in it. Immediately my mind went to being in the garden and how I hold the intention Read more…
Wasn’t sure if it made sense to have a Mystery and Mastery gathering this month since everyone’s schedule conflicted, but we rolled with it and ended up having an intimate group Akashic Records experience where everyone brought forward wisdom on moving past duality and living in the heart of paradox. The spirit of play jumped in immediately, reminding us to have fun and keep things light. Then we got an energetic experience of flexible perspective: Read more…
Here’s another paradox that started rearing its head in grad school. Back then it was dispiriting. It was more like, “The more I learn, the more my ignorance becomes apparent to me.” I was trying to fill myself up with knowledge because not knowing felt like the worst thing in the world. I felt so much pressure to consume concepts and theories and retain names and dates before I felt comfortable sharing ideas. In the Read more…
Do people even say this any more? No idea, but when I went inward to ask for the energy of living in paradox to make itself clearer for communication purposes, this is what playfully stepped forward: “I AM ALL THAT and a bag of chips.” It makes me giggle and it couldn’t be more perfect because yesterday I promised to start sharing more examples of how paradox has been showing up in my life since Read more…
In an exchange with @lauraleerussell on my last post I remarked how my encounter with the swallows and the eagle the other day evoked something my Akashic Records asked me years ago about why I kept choosing to be a hummingbird when I could also choose to be a condor, lord of the skies. In case you wondering wtf I’m rambling on about, I’m still very much in the midst of my manifestation mantra check in, Read more…
Like a seedling waiting to be put out after the last frost, all spring I’d been craving a day warm enough to spend fully outdoors. Yesterday I finally got my wish, and as I was staring at the sky admiring some swallows, I caught sight of a huge blur in my periphery. AN EAGLE! It was flying really low through the wooded area at the back of our property. (They usually hunt on the river Read more…
