how do I find empowerment?
2023. People tend to want to take the shortcut. You think you get there faster, to discover that you missed all the scenery and lessons. I have been guilty of this for the majority of my life. I always took shortcuts to success. Now that I have claimed my definition of success, abundant love. I refuse to ignore the reality of what it takes to live and heal fully. I refuse to ignore the existence of the inner and outer hierarchy. It is funny the ebb and flow between friends and teachers of mine when in healthy healing relations, we allow each end of the spectrum to teach and to learn. To understand that there are many people 'ahead on the path,' that healing is not linear, and to allow each other the grace to fall and stumble through our path of learning and teaching. Shortcuts, I have many people come to me to receive healing and to grow. Many want the golden ticket but are unwilling to do the grimy work. Just like relations, the path of healing has a hierarchy within. Many people, especially men, come to me wanting to do the inner work, but their physical body is not in good condition. They expect to feel at peace, to feel life flowing through them, with purpose and connection but fail to start at square one, the body. My perspective on healing begins with the body; I couldn't ascend into all these good spiritual feelings and words without taking care of my body first. My thoughts, emotions, and spirit did not feel well without taking care of my body first; this means dedicating yourself to eating well, exercise, movement, breath work, yoga, and dance; these things are a good starting point for a life of spiritual abundance. As most of you know, I am in the process of putting my heart and soul into an 8-week course, "Be your own Savior." I will keep the details a secret until getting closer to release. In this course, we will start at square one, the body. The program will include guiding you into a healthier regimen of food and taking care of your physical body through yoga, breath work, and workout videos created by yours truly. I am so excited to get this out into the world. Below are pictures of some of the movements, exercises, and stretches I will teach in the videos and some of the supplements in my cabinet. What are you putting down the hatch these days?! Take care of your meat sack; it has a purpose.
