In truth, 2022 was a challenging year. Probably one of the top 3 challenging years of my adult life. A year of taking risks, making big decisions and investments, putting myself out there, and as always, navigating unexpected consequences. I whole-heartedly trust the internal growth that is ignited within profound challenges ALWAYS has divine intelligence. The beyond is always the grand designer. I came face to face with big healing this year - betrayal, loss, heartbreak. Uprooting deep old wounds, clearing out the lingering past. Leading me to dig deeper, to land once again in the solidity of all that is. The foundation that holds everything. No matter what is happening internally or externally, this is it; and the journey back each moment is the most profound healer and teacher there is. The process of letting go of layers of concepts, perceptions, ideas of who I am, how life should look is always at it's core the most enriching and fulfilling path any one person could take. Because this year's shedding, ultimately led me to deeper alignment - with the truth of who I am, what I am here to do, to be, to stand for, to share. Beyond all the bullshit. Sharing it out in the world into form, is a whole other journey. But one that I'm 1000% committed to embodying, no matter where it takes me, how long it takes, how messy it gets, or what anyone else thinks. The continual realigning to my truth sometimes is a practice of the yoga of disgust (as one of my teachers likes to speak about - sending gratitude to her if she's reading this). Disgust as the teacher for what is not in alignment. I am welcoming 2023 with confidence and knowing. Connected to the visions; Watering their seeds planted in my heart and soul. They are the precious gifts that I am tasked with bringing into the world, for myself, for others, for this crazy evolutionary roller-coaster ride we are on. With humble gratitude to spirit, with trust and excitement, I cross the threshold into a new year. Thank you for reading, and I send blessings for your transition & our transition.

𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗢 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗧 𝗠𝗬𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗬 I lost a mentor a few weeks ago in a tragic accident. I only found out this week and it's hit me very deeply on all levels. I'd spoken to him the day before he died, and he was in unusually high spirits and offering a beautiful transmission. This teacher I respected very much. I honor his deep wisdom and experience in healing and shamanic traditions from all over the world. He was someone that I could go with to the outer reaches of consciousness. Into other dimensions, into the bizarre, unheard of territories. Into the great mystery. And then bring it all back into the 3D world in the here and now. We'd go unravel pieces of the mystery that were ready to be alchemized. And then he'd make sure all pieces of me were safely back in my body. Teaching me to continually refine my energetic field, my ability to perceive energies, and to decode the intelligence and the frequencies that I sensed. He didn't work much with the plants himself, but always encouraged my dedication on this path. He championed the purity of their energies, their spirits and their power for healing this earth. We had many conversations around the trans-human spaces, and as this popular AI wave rolls through, I half-laugh at what he would say. He was a very strong supporter of keeping all non-organic frequencies out of the human energy field, which is no small task. I learned much about the fine line of integrity, as he worked in such a way that is unique in these shamanic spaces, never intending harm, but striving for balance. And his skill set was unlike anyone I've encountered. Releasing grief on his passing, it was made clear to me that he was needed someone else right now. Somewhere else where his energy and wisdom could continue supporting our collective evolution. Letting myself feel the human emotions, and trusting his return to the great mystery. Over the last few weeks, I've been in sessions with clients all over the world - California, New York , Oregon, Uruguay, Arizona, & Ireland. I honor all the beautiful souls who are called to the healing power of the plants and are dedicated to the medicine path. Plant medicines unearth deep rooted emotions, memories, and traumas to be healed. And they have profound teachings for you. Whether it's your first plant medicine experience, your 100th, or you've been dieting master plants in the jungle. As old wounding comes up, it's not always clear what is happening. The human mind has locked these memories deep deep away, and when they arise, they can feel intense, overwhelming and larger than life. Or the mind is fragmented, dissociated, fuzzy, confused or disoriented. The mind struggles to integrate in both cases, and the healing is incomplete. Sometimes people lose trust in the healing process. They lose trust in the plants, in themselves, or in the facilitators who've been guiding them. Or sometimes, people don't feel as connected to the plants, not sure if the plants are still there, or how to access the deeper teachings and guidance that is available. This is all normal, and a sign that it's time for support. In ceremony, you have more access to resource while in expanded states of consciousness, where you can hold, and be with the challenging experiences arising to be healed. Your capacity to heal trauma is greater. This feeling of being supported can be a general feeling, from the spirit of a plant, your family or friends, the presence of the facilitator, nature, an animal, a higher power, your higher self, ...anything really. And this isn't always the case - you can lose connection with your sense of a support, even in ceremony, and spin into a cycle of reliving trauma over and over, which is not a healing process. (This is where the role of the facilitator is to help guide you back and to bring in spirits & energies for support.) Outside of the ceremonial context, it's easier to lose this feeling of loving support. In our everyday consciousness, we lose connection to the spirits of the plants, nature, our higher self, a higher power. This is why it's important to cultivate your spiritual connection and relationship with the plants in everyday reality. In 1:1 sessions, I guide you to rediscover your own capacity to connect to this expanded state and to the plants. I also hold a resourced space for you to feel, to see, and to heal the challenging, or confusing emotions and memories that are just below the surface that you can't access on your own. It's important to titrate these deeply held memories, to go slow. To go at the pace that feels safe and can be integrated. 💎 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗱𝗼𝗺 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀. 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. 💎 Almost 100% of the time, in sessions, there is something just below the surface that is ready to be integrated. Whether it's healing, or wisdom from the plants. The work of plant medicines does not end when the ceremony ends. They continue working within you. Their spirit, their consciousness, their wisdom is right there with you, always. The frequency of the plants outside of ceremony work slowly and deeply, continuing to unearth what is ready for healing, and teaching you to embody their wisdom. I teach you how to work with the frequency of the plants outside ceremony during our session, and through practices & ritual. So that the magic of the plants can truly change your life. 🌿 The free 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 & 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 sessions I've been offering are all claimed. Yet, if you are wanting support, I have 50% off a single 90-minute session. Only good through December 31. Send me a DM with your email, and I'll send you the code! 🌿 Also, coming in January is 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲- an integration group where we come together in community to support the powerful process of healing with the plants. Send me a DM for more info! I just spent time out walking the lands, soaking in healingwaters, watching the setting sun. This place calls me every year, and it always turns into a vision quest. I could feel all the crazy patterns that had me bound up - the doer and to-do lists, the worries, the "not good enough" voices - drop away. Just me and the sacred land. Prayers, connection, knowing. The channels clear. Re-finding and re-fining my truth - what lands in the deepest parts of me. Why I am here, what is my heart asking of me right now? What is calling my soul? My medicine is out on the Earth. The Earth gives us so much - a home, food, water, resources, shelter, beauty and magnificence. The teacher of the Earth is one that many of us don't notice, or pay attention. My heart's desire has always been to re-connect people back to her wisdom - and I have been so lucky to discover that teachings of the plants, who are eager to re-connect us back to our truth. 𝗗𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀, 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗵, 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘀 𝘂𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗶𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀. From this place, magnificence is birthed. Within, when we truly listen, we have all the knowledge, resources, and energy to create our lives individually and collectively in a way that serves all of life. A way that is in harmony with all elements and beings on this planet.
It sounds so simple...yet it's not. We get tied up in the cultural expectations & conditioning, our wounding and protective patterns, and we feel trapped. We have to find our way out of the trap. We have to go against the grain, follow what we know is our truth. Follow what's in our hearts. Even if it's uncomfortable. When we can listen deeply, it's natural to want to give back, to offer our gratitude for the chance to live this incredible life of evolution. To do our part and to make our lives a part of the greater intelligence. To serve and to give back to the Earth, her plants, her people, in gratitude, in love, in reciprocity. This is in a strange way where I started. As an environmental engineer & sustainability consultant, I was intending to serve our Earth, to care for her, to keep her alive, healthy and safe. What I quickly realized was that the pain, the dis-ease, the suffering that her humans held in their hearts caused them to act out in ways that destroyed, rather than healed. While I turned my work to caring for the humans, for helping them re-connect to their hearts, the plants found me and did their magic. They showed me how to listen to them, the Earth, my own heart. How to find my truth and how to see how distorted our world truly was. They taught me acceptance, patience, and trust. In 2023, the plants and Spirit, my heart and the Earth, all are calling me to bring more into my work about the giving back, the being in service to this Earth. Once the deep healing has taken place, how are we each called to bring our magic and medicine back into the world. In ways that create something magnificent. Over the next month, I have a few spaces open to dive deep into re-finding your truth. 𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗧𝗛 𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗩𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯, is a 90 min session with soul guidance, energetic alignment and transmission of plant teachers. 𝘼𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙣 𝙤𝙛 2023, 𝙡𝙚𝙩’𝙨 𝙬𝙚𝙡𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙩𝙧𝙪𝙩𝙝, 𝙛𝙞𝙣𝙙 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙘𝙡𝙖𝙧𝙞𝙩𝙮, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙨𝙚𝙩 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙥𝙧𝙖𝙮𝙚𝙧𝙨. For a life that is fulfilling, and 100% aligned with your heart and soul. This session helps you deprogram the old out-dated ways of being, unravels the conditioning, and uproots the subtle ways you are giving your power away. It helps clear out what is not in alignment with your truth. I'll be offering a few of these sessions for 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 to new clients, and if you want to know when those are announced, please send me your email! Here's to more of us living from our hearts, and in our truths. The last couple of weeks have been intense. Anyone else feeling it? Sudden endings - the death of my grandmother, the heartbreak of relationships, and life dishing out unexpected twists of fate - all leave me with little to hold onto. I get to see where I'm holding on to things that don't serve me anymore. That I have to let go in order for something new to be born. I'm thrown into the unknown on so many levels. I know the intensity of these times is bringing the deepest transformation. This is the medicine. The best medicine. I've been incredibly grateful for the medicine of 𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰. (Yes, that golden yellow spice you have in your cupboard!) Turmeric isn't understood as a plant medicine - as a teacher of immense wisdom and healing. But she is. She came through a few months ago, asking me to work with her (again) and share her medicine with others. 𝗡𝗢𝗪. This is some of the most potent times of transformation we've had. One of the gifts of turmeric is that she guides you through 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵, 𝗿𝗲𝗯𝗶𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. How could any of us want to remain stuck in life? In places that keep us small, don't nourish and feed us, and we aren't living our fullness? The quote from Anais Nin rings in my ears - “And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” At some point - we just have to take the leap. We have to go through the whole thing. To step out of the fear of painful endings, often filled with all the emotions of letting go - heartbreak, grief, and sadness. It's only from here can we start to understand the wisdom from beyond, the flow of life, nudging us to grow out of our comfort zone. Turmeric has a powerful bright light. The ancients recognized her as this - using her to purify the energy field and detox the body on the deepest levels. In this light, we feel safe and held - so much so, that we can step out of our comfort zones. We can leave the safety of what we are clinging to, and step courageously into the unknown. What begins to emerge and take shape is something incredible. The process of transforming, of rebirth - the beauty, awe, gratitude, and reverence for being alive and having the courage to walk through the fire. Because what's on the other side - 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙙𝙤𝙢, 𝙚𝙢𝙥𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩, 𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙣𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙨𝙤𝙪𝙡'𝙨 𝙥𝙖𝙩𝙝 - is 100% worth the transformation. You can join us on a magical journey with turmeric! 𝗜𝗹𝗹𝘂𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱: 𝗦𝗼𝗳𝘁 𝗗𝗶𝗲𝘁𝗮 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗧𝘂𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰 starts next week. Includes all materials, instructions, recipes, 1:1 energetic alignment, and the power of a group of courageous humans in the midst of deep transformation. Here's to navigating these transformative times! No matter what, I trust myself. No matter what, I love myself. No matter what, I hold my vision. No matter what, I honor my deepest truth. I will not abandon myself to expectations of the outside world. I will not numb myself to distractions. I will not override myself to please others, to fit in, to feel like I belong or to feel loved. I will not sabotage my power, my light, and my joy... anymore. Many of us are victims to our own selves - We abandon ourselves. We do it unconsciously, in order to get something we think we want. It's so sneaky. All the places our shadows look outside for answers. For validation. We hide parts of ourselves- those parts that we fear won't be accepted, welcomed and loved by the outside world. In reality, these parts aren't accepted, welcomed and loved by US. We cut them off and deny them expression. We lock them in a dungeon, hoping they will disappear. It's a great disservice to our own growth, evolution and fulfillment. The challenging emotions - heartbreak, pain, anger, grief - are suppressed deep in our bodies. Our bodies become a reservoir of experiences that we simply can't process. We instead choose to distract ourselves. We self-medicate with quick fixes - food, sugar, alcohol, mind-altering substances, overworking, and toxic relationships. We don't recognize and honor our own boundaries. We let others overstep, drain our energy, deflate our light, and steal our power. And we do it to ourselves. What if instead you learned to sit with yourself in the deepest places? What if you learned to heal yourself and free yourself of the challenging emotions? What if you stood by the deepest parts of yourself, no matter what? We as a society don't know how to be there for ourselves. We think something outside is coming to save us. We give our power away externally to the people and systems that let us down over and over again. You have to relearn how to be your own best friend, your own healer, your own trusted advisor. Step by step, moment by moment. It's up to you, no one else can do it for you. You can have support - friends, therapists, healers, plant medicines - but ultimately, you are responsible for your own healing. You have to choose to welcome yourself in the tender, painful and vulnerable places. Even when the world says, "Get yourself together. Move on. Be happy." Deep down you know that this is toxic. There comes a time, when you will no longer stuff the precious parts of yourself down. You know these parts of you are keys to unlocking something beautiful, something meaningful, something that is dying to be alive in this world. Each time you choose to be with that tender one, they learn to trust you. While the world doesn't welcome them, YOU are welcoming them. They see you as the one to rely on, the one who protects; the one who knows how nourish your heart and soul. If you can learn to see and hold that tender one, and not override them- something magical opens. Infinite possibility. Creativity. Love. Compassion. These emerge from the depths of your being. A magnificent vibration emanates from within you. You welcome yourself home. Nourishment at the deepest level. YOU get to choose to break the cycle. To stay with yourself. To heal. To reclaim your deepest gifts. This week, you can join me in diving deep into healing these parts of yourself. We are going to work with an incredibly loving plant teacher - turmeric. A teacher who can show you where you are abandoning yourself and giving your power away. One who opens your body to release old emotions, while holding beautiful compassionate sacred space. One who brings you into inner union and harmony, so you can break through into taking radical responsibility for yourself, trusting yourself above all. See the link in my BIO for more. 𝗜𝗹𝗹𝘂𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱: 𝗦𝗼𝗳𝘁 𝗗𝗶𝗲𝘁𝗮 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗧𝘂𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰 begins Wednesday, October 19. I'm also accepting 1:1 clients, if you are ready to dive into deep healing work right now, and could use highly focused attention in a private sacred container. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮 𝘀𝗮𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀? "I wish I had the time to be more connected with spirit." This is something I hear a lot. As if spirit was an old friend who they've lost contact with, and they just don't know how to reach out again. It's unbelievable how simple it can be to reconnect to spirit, to the magic that lives within everything and feeds us and nourishes us. What's not simple is figuring out how to do it in the busy-ness and complexity of life. This is one reason why I offer a sacred container to work with plants - in a "soft diet." Plants offer a portal - a direct connection - back to the deepest parts of yourself, to spirit, and to the pulse of Mother Earth. These "diets" are guided sacred containers, where I support you in your work with the plant to unearth and reconnect to your heart and soul, your purpose and your prayer. I guide you to create a container in your life, even amidst the busy-ness, where you can listen, learn and heal. A diet reconnects you to spirit in new and profound ways. You are again nourished from the stream of energy that underlies everything. When you lose contact with this deep reservoir of energy, you can fall in to depression, anxiety, overwhelm or simply lose heart. Even at low manageable levels in the background, these ultimately drain your energy. In a diet, you reclaim this connection to spirit and you can harness this well of energy to put towards whatever it is that you want to create or experience in your life. So how is this different than taking herbs everyday in a tincture, capsule or as a tea? You can of course do this! This is herbal medicine practice to help address physical and emotional challenges. For example, turmeric (an incredible plant medicine) is often taken to help those with arthritis or joint pain, diabetes, or viral infections. Turmeric supplements also often help with depression. This is wonderful for your health, and yet you can miss a deeper spiritual & emotional healing that is available. All plants have an energetic signature, a spirit, with wisdom that can guide you on deep transformation. But only if you are open to welcoming and receiving it. Turmeric has been known for thousands of years for its spiritual properties - purification, protection, blessings, and harmonization. When you create a container for the plant to teach you on those levels, you receive so much more than the physical benefits. You are rejuvenated on the level of spirit, and you reconnect to your own spiritual essence. You free yourself of deep-rooted emotions, stories, and patterns. And you create an intimate relationship with a plant spirit - one that will continue to support and guide you in your life. A new friend who is always there. I'm sharing more on these sacred containers with plant, and specifically with turmeric, in a FREE CLASS next week! Join me Tuesday, October 11 for "𝗚𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗦𝘂𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲: 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗼𝗳 𝗧𝘂𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰." Register HERE! ✨ 𝕋𝕙𝕒𝕥 𝕓𝕣𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥 𝕝𝕚𝕘𝕙𝕥 𝕨𝕚𝕥𝕙𝕚𝕟. ✨ I believe we all have inside an incredible reservoir of light and joy. There's a part of us that is happy and excited to be alive. No matter what. Our child-selves within each of us - they remember this essence; they 𝙚𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙖𝙩𝙚 it. If you watch children, you can see them shreeking in delight on the playground, or their excitement while telling a story from deep within their creative imaginations. We often lose contact with these parts of ourselves - with our 𝙤𝙬𝙣 𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙞𝙤𝙪𝙨 𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩. Stress, anxiety, depression, life challenges, overworking, loneliness, grief - all come in and cover up our light. We unconsciously do this to protect the creative parts of ourselves that don't feel safe or loved in the world, or to try to belong in a world that doesn't welcome or understand our unique light. Over the past couple of years, I've been working with an ancient plant teacher that's an incredible guide to rediscovering this light living deep within. This teacher is tumeric - with a magnificent color that you san sense is 𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙪𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 & 𝙥𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙛𝙮𝙞𝙣𝙜. ✨ Tumeric uplifts and cleans the energy within our cellular body, reminding us we have 𝙥𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙪𝙣𝙙𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙧𝙜𝙮 to use for whatever our creativity desires. ✨ Tumeric holds us and baths us in her own light. So that the emotions and memories of why we hid our light up in the first place can resurface and be transformed. ✨ She's a powerful healer who rejuvenates our body-mind-spirit. As medicine, she detoxifies our blood, supports our immunity, and uplifts our moods. When we are fully supported, our natural tendency is to 𝙧𝙚𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙣 𝙩𝙤 𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙜𝙞𝙣𝙖𝙡 𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚. It's always here; and if we reconnect to it, we transform ourselves and the world around us. ✨ I have a group forming to go on a journey with this ancient medicine. In a sacred container, we will develop an intimate relationship with tumeric; and learn how she can help us release our shadows & reclaim our light. We start October 19. Check it out HERE, and DM me for more info! Over the weekend, in a place that calls me to return time after time, a magical world opened. The key to this world? Letting go of having to know the answers. (...and a little help from working with tumeric - a plant teacher that's lighting me up.) I honestly don't know how to deal with everything in my life. Family, relationships, business, my home, what am I doing for the holidays, or what's happening next year. Instead of worry and stress about the future, I turned to the sunshine, the plants (including tumeric), the animals, the water. I connected to what was in front of me. I soaked the medicine of the Earth into the deepest levels of my being. Nourishing my heart and soul. Returning me to the magic that's always available. ✨ 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 is why I am here. ✨ "Not knowing" is medicine that drops us into our hearts. Into connection with nature, with ourselves, and with others. We all want to know what's coming. We think there's safety in knowing. If we know what's going to happen, we can plan for it. We do this unconsciously. The truth is 𝗔𝗟𝗪𝗔𝗬𝗦 - we don't know. This life is mysterious and ever-changing. This is what makes it so exciting! If we knew everything, imagine how boring it would be. We'd lose our inspiration and creativity. We'd lose our capability to learn and grow. We'd lose the joy of being alive and free! But we get caught in the loop of thinking we have to know. And we have to know 𝗡𝗢𝗪. Instead of letting go. Instead of trusting the magnificent unfolding. And we lose all the magic. Plant medicines are incredible teachers for this as they have the power to strip us of our knowing - entirely. They open us back up to the infinite magic. We see new perspectives of the past, new possibilities for the future, and new ways of interpreting our realities. With the help of some plants, we learn the secrets of life, the mysteries of the universe, and how we've been living from such a limited perceptive. They show us how much we've been missing in life. It's incredibly beautiful (and a relief) to wake up to discover that the intelligence of the universe is so much greater, and more compassionate, that any of us would have ever imagined. She always has our back, encouraging us to step forward into our unique magic. Plants offer us a gift - a portal to unlock our minds so we get to experience this magic. Not think about it, read about it, hear about it. But we get to experience it. In real time. And this experience changes everything. We get to experience that we are part of the universe. We are not separate. We are part of the magic that underlies everything. And we "𝗞𝗡𝗢𝗪" this in our hearts. The truth is we are co-creating this reality every moment. Our magic with the magic of the universe. But we have to let go of our habit of trying to know how it's all going to play out. ⚡ So, how do we let go of our need to know? ⚡ How do we tap into this co-creative magical energy everyday? ⚡ How can we connect with the plants and their gifts as we live our lives? I believe that once this portal has been opened, it's up to us to step into it and let go of needing to know. Because this is where our soul's path is. This is where our highest potential is waiting for us. ✨ 𝗜𝗡 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗠𝗔𝗚𝗜𝗖. ✨ Want to explore more? Join me 𝗧𝗢𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗥𝗢𝗪, Tuesday 9/27 for a free class! "𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗹𝘆 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲: 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗶𝘀𝗱𝗼𝗺 𝗼𝗳 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗱𝗮𝘆." We will dive into how to bring this magic into life here and now. And you'll get a taste of what it's like to work with me! Register HERE! With love, Jaime Do you know those special moments where everything drops away? You aren't caught up in your to-do list; your aren't scrambling from one thing to the next; you aren't swept away in anxiety or frustration or a well of grief. You are simply present. You have arrived in the moment. All of you is here. Nothing else exists in the world. You feel a reverence and humility for life. You find yourself in these moments out in nature, in deep conversation with a friend, in the middle of the night, in meditation. You find yourself here with plant medicines, in ceremonies, or simply connecting with plant spirits. Plants, in their purity, without interference of the mind, help show the way. Plants guide us to release our minds, and to experience what is beyond the everyday. They take us on a journey to remind us of the beauty and preciousness of life. We are not what we think we are. Life is not what we think it is. We remember this beauty, but then we quickly forget. We get back to our computers, our desks, our chores and it seems long ago, like in a different world. What would change if you knew how to tap into that type of remembering? What if you were able to drop into beauty and presence everyday? When we see the world from here, we have more capacity. We can handle the ups and downs with more ease and grace. We can consciously choose how we respond to the world. In our words, thoughts, emotions and actions. We respond in service to healing ourselves, others and our world. We uplift and transform energies rather than responding in ways that perpetuate unhealthy behaviors. We can recognize more clearly our soul's paths, our calling, and our innate creativity. We trust ourselves to take steps in alignment with them. We can connect with the plants - open to receive their wisdom and guidance - everyday. In this space, we have access to perceiving the energy of life. We aren't bound and limited by our thoughts. Dropping into to these moments is possible for all of us, with or without plant medicines. Everyday. Sometimes we just need a reminder in how to find it and cultivate it, so it grows, bringing us more capacity in life. This is why I’m offering a free class to share my favorite ways to tap into this magic anytime. Join me on September 27 for 𝙒𝙞𝙡𝙙𝙡𝙮 𝘼𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙚: 𝙊𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙤 𝙋𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙈𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙘𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙨 & 𝙎𝙝𝙖𝙢𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙘 𝙀𝙣𝙚𝙧𝙜𝙮 𝙀𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮𝙙𝙖𝙮. Sign up HERE. Would love to have you! |
