Episode 040 of Living in Response is an opening into sharing some deeper parts of myself that don’t usually leave the bottom of the frozen lake that is my Scorpio soul. (:
Thanks to all of the people who continue to pass down wisdom from the ancestors and teachers so that we may continue to be an advocate for a coherent life.
Topics Covered in This Episode:Summarized (mostly) with AI
1️⃣ You Don’t Need to Know to BeginI reflect on how I almost delayed recording by trying to plan the perfect opening. Then I remembered (after just a couple minutes this time!): I don’t need to know where I’m going—I just need to start. This episode is a living example of surrendering to the unknown and letting it unfold.
2️⃣ From Healing to Something DeeperThere was a point when I realized healing isn’t the purpose of life—it’s a part of the path, but not the whole. I’ve grown disenchanted with spiritual materialism and started asking deeper questions about what (else) it means to be a soul in a body.
3️⃣ The Will to MeaningDrawing from Viktor Frankl’s logotherapy, I explore the idea that the meaning of life is to find meaning—and that meaning is felt, not found. Pleasure and power are byproducts, not the purpose. Meaning is in what makes your soul stir.
4️⃣ Remembering That We Are AwarenessThe phrase “I am loving awareness” keeps showing up. I revisit Ram Dass’ teachings and recognize how much they resonate now, helping me deepen into the idea that awareness isn’t just what sees—it’s what is.
5️⃣ Expanding My Spiritual PracticeThrough Yoga Tantra and my nightly sadhana practice, I’m exploring the goddess Matangi—an archetype of raw expression. I’ve noticed that these heart-centered practices have helped me feel more embodied and authentic in my expression.
6️⃣ HeartMath & the Science of CoherenceI go deep into heart coherence and how syncing the heart and brain leads to emotional, physical, and intuitive well-being. I also talk about the HeartMath app and how we can scientifically influence the collective energy field.
7️⃣ Awareness in the GridDuring a recent meditation, I connected with the Earth’s energy and reflected on what it means to be a kind of “grid worker”—someone who nourishes the field of collective consciousness by living in a coherent, loving state. (“Energy activism!”)
8️⃣ Noticing the Ego Without Demonizing ItWhile doing a heart coherence practice, I noticed my ego wanting credit for how “good” I was doing. Instead of rejecting it, I honored its voice but remembered: awareness is the source. The ego is a participant, not the creator.
9️⃣ Self-Transcendence Over Self-FocusI’m shifting from the self-focused spirituality I used to engage in (how can I manifest more?) to a broader lens of self-transcendence—living with others in mind. Not from martyrdom, but from interconnection.
🔟 Creative Expression as AwarenessCreativity is awareness expressing itself. I’m experimenting with letting poetry and words flow through me without trying to control or polish them. It’s not about making something perfect—it’s about letting something real come through.
1️⃣1️⃣ We’re All Contributing to the FieldWhether through meditation, service, or authentic living, we’re all affecting the global field of energy. This episode is a reflection on the quiet, real ways we shape the world—not always with a loud voice, but with steady presence.
1️⃣2️⃣ Letting Go of KnowingI talk about my dance between wanting clarity and learning to trust what I feel. Awareness will guide. The more I let go of needing to know, the more naturally things unfold—even if they don’t look like I expected.
🌀 The Bottom Line: Let Awareness LeadThis episode is an unfiltered, imperfect, heart-led ramble through the forest of my mind. If there’s one message I’m landing on, it’s this: You are loving awareness. Let that be enough. Start where you are. Let it unfold from there.
