A poem to help you discover yourself without the external noise that bombards us every moment. We often seek answers through this stream of information, but it tends to not make us feel like we are healed or whole, and often causes a rift between where we are in our lives right now and where we wish ourselves to be. What if we listened more attentively to the well of wisdom we already hold within us? What would bubble up from that space if left undammed?

Those of us who have been traumatized often find ourselves shut inside protective caves that sever us from our feeling body. Returning to who we are, therefore, means leaving what we know - those coping strategies (caves) - that no longer serve us. Finding our way back home to our soft mammal of a body means giving up the reptile within that keeps us perpetually in fight/flight/freeze mode. I hope this helps you with whatever you are going through right now, Sez

A somatic theatre for the imagination. Come with me into the deep forest and offer your emotional pain to the Greater Cycle in nature that repurposes, renews, and rebirths all emotional ache. This is a 15-minute poetic talk, a 17-minute guided visualization meditation, and a short conclusion to help you see the purpose of your pain.

I write, record, and edit all my own meditations, so thank you for all shapes of support. I am deeply grateful that this work can continue because of you :)  Sez

Whatever you are going through right now that makes it feel unsafe to be you, know that you are being asked to unfold even more and bare that pollen-drenched center of yours to the light. Join me on this soundscape that encourages us to reflect upon the value of the coping strategies we use to protect ourselves and remember that being still with our discomfort can lead us into a deeply expansive and meaningful life. Thank you for sharing, commenting, or just being here with me today.

Nature has an alliance with the Great Mystery and is therefore guided, healed & grown in accordance with that trust. Why do we consider ourselves separate from that same companionship when we ARE nature? This is a 3-minute poem about how nature never gives up on itself & how that seed is planted within us too. I hope it offers relief to those currently in doubt of their spiritual progress. Thank you so much to all who listen, comment, donate & share. You are the reason this work exists.

Can the medicine, offered to ourselves in the midst of ache, be that which keeps us searching for a cure? Can the voices that encourage us to feel differently than we do, be better than we are in that moment - be what’s keeping us oscillating between self-healing and perpetual self-wounding.

15 minute talk - 12 minute guided meditation - end notes.

SEZ ON SUBSTACK

Allow earth to yawn open and devour you whole or salt to carry your body across its foamy shoulders and rest in the knowing that you are being cared for. Your body will be balmed in honey and butter will be dripped over heart, tobacco and cornflour cast at your feet, the crown of your head wrapped in laurels and red powder blown across your face. And as you make sacred of nature, so does she make sacred of you. Reciprocity.

It’s an old paradigm to try and cure suffering with suffering. This we all know. On both an individual level and a global one.

So if you are feeling fear right now, that’s so ok - but an exasperated sense of it might not be serving you, your community, or the collective consciousness we are trying to raise.

We need feet on earth, strong backs, and open hearts willing to both hold - and spill out Love.

Because all hearts have a purpose right now.
