27. The Shadow Work

This is the point.

This is the work that needs to happen in the world. It’s hard work, but it’s simple work. It takes courage and vulnerability and trust. You can do this.

This is the work of owning our feelings and reactions and going through the process of getting to the root and bringing out the diamond of understanding.

26. Sh!t Happens

Emotions are not “objective absolute reality” even though they feel really real and true when they’re happening. That doesn’t mean they’re lies or can’t be trusted. Emotions are just information. What is suspect is how we interpret emotions and what we make those emotions mean about ourselves and others and the world.

Emotions are powerful, valuable, allowed and accepted - but must always be felt and processed through the lens of information, not as absolute truth about reality.

Behold, the emotional trigger.

The kernal of offence and internet swarms, Shadow Work intelligence is a skill and responsibility our society has mostly misunderstood and failed to deliver in our education - much to our loss and detriment.

24. Sacral Gift: Pleasure & Desire

There are an infinite number of ways to experience desire and pleasure and enjoyment of life.

Any criticism or rejection of the myriad of pleasurable expressions is received by the child as a wound of Self. A wound to Self at the most core, source part of ourselves.

We come here to enjoy life.

This is simple truth.

23. Sacral Challenge: Guilt

Emotions are expressed and known through the instinctual, natural expressions of our body. Jubilant, orgiastic, spontaneous expressions of aliveness. Well, shut down that triggering shit, right now.

Spontaneous expressions of joy can be very triggering to wounded, repressed, self-critical adults.

22. Sacral: The Chakra of Sweetness

The sacral chakra right and obligation is to feel and enjoy pleasure and desire.

In Hindi, the sacral chakra is called svadhisthana, which means “dwelling place of the self” or “where the self comes into being”. It is where we balance the first dualities of existence as one becomes two. If we’re successful at this balance than we can experience the “sweetness” that the sacral chakra brings to all of life.

The sacral is the basis of our emotional identity and is characterized by movement and flow. This is the place of balance between all dualities: the connection between inner and outer worlds, self and other, Land + Spirit.

21. Root Gift: Trust

How do we trust?

Trust like love, cannot be taught - it has to be experienced to be understood. We cannot intellectualize love. We cannot intellectualize trust. We cannot theorize the life-changing quality of these ways of being until we embody them.

The most important parts of living in the world of form need to be experienced to be known. The cellular, 'in your body knowing' is a very different state of being than thinking something is true.

Trust is not ‘trust that the world of form will always be good and kind and just’. Real trust is knowing that you will be okay not matter what happens. This is the only trust that we ever really have.

20. Root Challenge

We ain’t kidding around.

This baby is the challenge of all challenges. Fear is literally the only other option to love… and even then it’s based in a misunderstanding. There is only love and fear - and fear is forgetting that everything is love.

19. Root: Body Dialogue

Connecting to What Is.

This class is entirely focused on practice - practice being in connection and communication with your body. I can’t stress enough what an ancient wisdom tool is your body. It knows so much and carries connection and answers beyond our rational mind’s ability to know. Our bodies are the antennae to the infinite. We cannot experience our fullest potential in physical incarnation without the consent and exuberant consent of our body.

18. The Root

The physical is spiritual.

The physical world is not a punishment or a test or a lesson. The physical world is also wholiness. The physical world is just as spiritual as the love and oneness we imagine is awaiting us beyond the veil.

Grian-stad an-tSamhradh / Summer Solstice

The Summer Solstice is the time of greatest sun, moving into the hottest time of year in the Northern hemisphere. This is the time of the alchemy of transformation &/or the energy/fuel for creating - which is kind of the same thing really. Everything we create and grow transforms and changes us and our lives in some way. This is the time of Sacred Fire.

17. Welcome to the Chakras

Your body is Ancient Wisdom.

The body doesn’t lie.

Combining western psychology and the chakra system brings a greater understanding of self in the world. It includes all levels of our existence, including the spiritual (which is missing from most Western healing models) and provides the greatest amount of flexibility and nuance when walking a path of personal healing. There is no one right way and no one right outcome which gives us the most freedom and acceptance to be who we are.

16. Identity

Spirit. Land. Expression.

Identity on Earth is perceived through 3 main facets (The reality is that identity is infinite, but we need to focus lol.):

  1. the physical body (land) identity,

  2. spiritual identity &

  3. the expression of our Authentic Self (spirit) in the world (land).

There is only Spirit and Land and they are different vibrations of the same unified whole. The trouble comes when the harmony and expression of either gets interrupted or suppressed.

13. Nourishment

We are sustained by others.

There is not a being that exists on the Earth that is sustained on it’s own. All Beings; human, animal, plant, mineral, insect - we are all sustained through the life and death of other Beings.

This is the great dichotomy of joy and suffering in the physical realm.

12. Remembrance

How different is your inner world to your outer one? How often do you leave ideas, thoughts and feelings unsaid?

Our only purpose on Earth is to authentically express our Essence while we’re here. That’s it. That’s all. The only true and real purpose is to live and express in harmony with our Soul Self.

9. Innocence

There’s no sin. You’re not broken.

We are wholiness, we’ve just forgotten.

We are not born into the world with sin. There is no original sin. There was no expulsion from Eden. No crucifixion was need to atone for our sins. We are and have always been in "At-One-Ment" with Creator.

Wholiness is always the state of our existence. We just forget... then made up a bunch of crap that explained what we forgot. None of it is true.
