I’ve been to LA and done kundalini yoga in Hollywood with ‘the best teachers’ at Golden Bridge, and had lunch with Leonardo de Caprio’s step mum after class.
The studio was claimed to be so high in frequency that they had to put an iron ‘nail’ through the floor into the earth to ground it, so we didn’t all fly off into the ethers like the Mayan’s.
The gong was 60” round ( thats 1.5m, it might have been 80” I can’t remember) and I fell so deeply asleep in it’s vibes that no one could wake me. I had no idea they even tried. Missed half that class, got over my jet lag.
Jet lag, being an outsider, and small stature aside I still had a frequency - a resonance - that teachers would call me out from the crowd to demonstrate or lead small sections of the day.
We practised a meditation about beaming your future - resonance -with one word. Mine was love. When I was asked to share my word the response was “you got it”. Not because it was ‘correct’, because it resonated.
20 years later I’m still travelling on that moonbeam I sent myself into the future.
Not without stumbles, wobbles and a good old face plant or universal kick up the wazhoo here and there. You’ve got to have some fun, right?!
In those years, I kept hearing people telling me “I felt I came home when I found xxxx….” and I always felt lost even if I loved what I was doing. Even when I first got on that love beam.
Then I found the breath. Not the busy breathing that was kundalini yoga breathing.
The breath of love.
The quiet, soulful, natural connected breath of rebirthing breathwork that has taught me over the past 15 years that it is not only ok to be me, it’ easy - you literally can’t help it, even in all your neurosis - and essential.
Because like you, I am love. Even when we don’t feel it right now.
What you breathe you resonate out into the world. So you don’t have to feel it yet. You can still be resonating it, even it is along with the neurosis, the deeper truth of you will resonate through.
Nat and I dove deep into nervous system and breathwork and fascia LONG before it was what the ‘cool kids’ are doing - and then we have expanded out into quantum biology , the electric breath and way beyond.
We naturally resonate all this - we were drawn to it via our resonance, and when we ‘discovered’ the work others were sharing… it resonated. This has evolved ( and will continue to, it’s not static) into Radical Embodied Breathwork and Radical Living. Love is the foundation.
More recently, Nat and I moved to Gympie in 2023 and I have spent two years working through the next phase of our evolution, struggling as we all do between getting things moving and taking the rest that our being is demanding. Letting things gestate can be the hardest thing to ‘do’.
No giant gong to wipe me out here ha ha, not that a gong is an appropriate sleep aid ;)
You can’t build or connect with life when you are in a quiet phase or not aligned with that energy. If you are resonating rest in your own depths, if your being is screaming ‘gestate’ that is the call that world is answering.
If you are resonating with the job, you will get it even if you fuck the interview.
Deep in your being you know who you are and why you are here and all this doubt and questioning is essentially you fucking with yourself.
And - you are absolutely not to blame. It is time to stop the blame game if you haven’t already and get into doing what you can do, taking the action (which might look like non-action) that you can.
You have been trained and taught by the external world that you have to DO, set goals, be busy, achieve things, have certain things, get the grades, get the girl, win the man, drive the car, and don’t forget sorting out your shit because there is no way you are good enough just as you are right?
Wrong.
Most of us didn’t ‘choose’ this society that we live in. We were born into it.
And yet it is dictating our lives and even our minds. We didn’t make up the rules and yet they are so programmed into our mind that they feel like who we are.
When we attempt to resonate what is not us, life is much harder. There is an internal conflict that crosses our wires - mixed messaging 101. Others are picking up on that mixed messaging even if they aren’t aware of it, and can’t trust, don’t trust, it. That is not working for you.
RESONATE, our first Radical Sunday for the year, is an opportunity to get your frequency ‘messaging’ aligned, sorted and working for you.
Because what you are resonating out into the world is what you are experiencing. Like it or not.
Don’t like what you are seeing - going IN is always the answer.
Attending to what you are really resonating is always the answer.
And this is what we will be doing on the 1st of March in RESONATE.
If you’ve got your shit together expect to up level.
If you are stuck in trying to work it or work it out, give yourself the opportunity to create some inner alignment that will get you off that hamster wheel.
If you’ve got no idea or feel lost (a little or a lot) that is actually perfect.
You don’t need to know.
Get ready to recalibrate to your own frequency, the one, the parts, that you haven’t even touched yet, no thinking all energetic resonance.
Yes, you will still have challenges - or as we prefer to refer to them - another fucking growth opportunity ;)
Because we will always be moving the unaligned bits out to make room for deeper alignment.
Sometimes it will feel hard, but the more we use our resonance, the easier it is.
You could call it living in the Zone.
Join us, Sunday March 1st for RESONATE and benefit from:
-group resonance - amplifying the impacts and taking your resonance places you wouldn’t go on your own.
- time in nature, the great restorer - magnetic rocks, calm palms, your bare feet on the grass and endless views down the Mary as she flows on by
- not-exactly-yoga session to move your fascia, your qi and return some flow to your system while you unwind and down regulate, making room for resonance and getting beyond our neuroses
- a full radical embodied breathwork session to get you deeply into you, and have you resonating
- the awesome meditation practice to create a resonant focus for the times ahead. This one I am bringing forward from LA /Hollywood in about 2006, it has the vibes! What will your be??
- being in the love of a genuine community - the gritty real kind that doesn’t let you just get away with it ;) and some great food too….
Keen to join us?? spaces are limited. You can find out more HERE
