We started our discussion by exploring what Jen’s students and clients are struggling with at the moment. This led to a discussion on disconnection and how the world has changed dramatically. We then looked at what we can do to thrive through these tumultuous times. The only certainty comes from within. We spoke about capitalism being based on scarcity and how younger people are waking up to the fact that capitalism is a con. We then discussed how to use intuition as a guide in life and in business as old business models and approaches are now outdated. Val shared a beautiful poem. Jen spoke about how the lockdown allowed children to be children and look for their hidden treasure and we explored ways of following the subtle signs from the universe to reach our abundant selves.
Advice from Maria Sabina, Mexican curandera (medicine woman) and poet.
“Cure yourself, with the light of the sun and the rays of the moon With the sound of the river and the waterfall. With the swaying of the sea and the fluttering of birds.
Heal yourself, with the mint and mint leaves, with neem and eucalyptus. Sweeten yourself with lavender, rosemary, and chamomile.
Hug yourself with the cocoa bean and a touch of cinnamon. Put love in tea instead of sugar
And take it looking at the stars
Heal yourself , with the kisses that the wind gives you and the hugs of the rain.
Get strong with bare feet on the ground and with everything that is born from it. Get smarter every day by listening to your intuition, looking at the world with the eye of your forehead.
Jump, dance, sing, so that you live happier.
Heal yourself, with beautiful love, and always remember ...you are the medicine. "
