Finding your point of balance

Yesterday I shared collective wisdom from the brilliant system on what we do when we come to center. Centering is often natural and easy. E.g., think of when you take a breath to gather yourself and get into “work mode.” Centering is decidedly more challenging when we are faced with situations that trigger fears and old wounds. These are the moments that activate your fight/flight/freeze responses. But how do we not only engage the parasympathetic Read more…

What we do when we center

I’ve been clearing some misconceptions around centering, and yesterday I invited you to practice being aware of what it is that you do automatically and instinctually when you center—not just externally, but energetically in the subtle realms of your brilliant system. In no particular order (for this is not a set, linear process), here is what I have noticed and clients have reported. Maybe some of it resonates with you. CONSCIOUS BREATH: You take a Read more…

Consciously centering

I’ve been clearing some limiting beliefs that get in the way of centering, and today I’m building off yesterday’s post on Be-ing to show you that you are actually doing a lot more than you think when you come to center. And, yes, you know how to center. We’re just bringing conscious awareness to something you already do so subtly and automatically via your brilliant system. We’ll pretend as if we were in a session Read more…

Being is not doing nothing

I initially envisioned this post series on centering as a simple how-to, but my first post came out rather pointedly around a limiting belief, and when today’s topic came to me this morning, I realized that before getting to the meat and potatoes, I need to keep giving folks the opportunity to clear what might get in the way of choosing to center. So here is another belief: that centering is “doing nothing,” and “How Read more…

Centered or checked out?

Yesterday I opened a series on centering with the common limiting belief that being “self centered” is a moral failing. And for me the programming was so deep that when I had finally established a reliable, repeatable way to find my center no matter what, part of me wondered if I had somehow gone numb. Why was I not reacting to the news in the same way? Where had all my ambition gone? Am I Read more…

Centering in the face of problems

Many of us grow up with the message that being self centered is a moral failing, that we must put others ahead of ourselves. So-called navel gazing is for the privileged because look 👏 at 👏all 👏 the 👏 problems 👏 in 👏 the 👏 world 👏. Look at all the problems in my life. Brilliant human, how are you going to attend to any of it if you are not coming from a strong, Read more…

Mystery & Mastery workshop

For our third gathering of the year we finally put a conceptual frame around the work we did in January (attuning to fields of light) and February (pop-up Akasha with sound healing). After a quick overview of the brilliant system, we covered: 1. how all our challenges can be reframed as invitations to engage our brilliant system; 2. how you already have experience with centering, surrendering to mystery, and stepping into mastery. This is true Read more…

Divine allies

Yesterday I mentioned that for each phase in the spiral path of the brilliant system—centering, surrendering to mystery, and stepping into mastery—you have a divine ally, namely, balance, grace, and genius, each of which is waiting for you to show up in full partnership with their support. When I say divine ally, I don’t mean it in the way people talk about spirit guides. These are fields of light that are always already available, which Read more…

Divine allies on the spiral path

Yesterday I mentioned that we can reframe every challenge we face as an invitation to engage our brilliant system either by finding our center, surrendering to mystery, or stepping into mastery. As free will beings, the choice to take the first step is entirely ours, but we are not alone on this journey. When we work on centering, balance is our divine ally. With surrender, it is grace. And when we step into our power, Read more…

You aren’t left out

I’ve been writing about the brilliant system as the innate intelligence of everything in creation. No one is left out of this. We are all equally and uniquely brilliant. You might be thinking, “Well, if I’m so brilliant, why is my life kind of a mess? Where’s my brilliance now?” My answer to you is that it has never left you. In fact, it is calling to you now. Everything you regard as a problem Read more…
