The Grace Space

I learned to feel again by facing one of the most painful episodes of my life as a woman -- and ironically, I thought I was over it.

Just because you don't really feel the pain anymore doesn't mean you've processed it.

Sometimes it's because you've numbed it out.

The second chakra -- associated with the water element -- is the energy centre just below your navel, and the seat of feeling, flowing, pleasure, intimacy, belonging, sexuality and creativity. 

In this episode of The Grace Space, our journey into the water element of feeling continues.

This is the story of how I began transforming the long-held pain of a second chakra trauma and rededicated that energy to my higher purpose.

In the process, I learned, and I share with you...

And lots more, including the power of shakti, being lost at sea, in love with the Pays Cathare, and dissolving the karma of your bloodline.

The decision to fully commit to my spiritual path galvanized me with joy and excitement. Little did I know it was the beginning of seven years of tears.

I was about to step into the river, figuratively and literally.

And find out that 'being spiritual' was the opposite of peaceful.

This is the story of how I entered the water element and finally started to FEEL.

It was a time when tears were always close to the surface, emotion was overwhelming and drowning was a possibility.

When years, centuries, lifetimes of dammed up energy would rise to burst through the levies of illusion and flood every area of life.

In today's episode, I share with you...

Learning how to feel again is how we begin to thaw the parts of our heart that have been frozen in time. 

Join me now in The Grace Space as I take you back to France with me (and through a warp in space-time!) and share with you the fruit of Swamiji's blessing, the recognition of soulmates, the pitfalls of being an inexperienced camper, and more!

In this instalment of The Path of Grace, My Journey, I share with you how I made a life-changing decision to walk away from the life I had built to follow a path into the Unknown.

It took me an agonizing 10 days to work up the courage to simply be honest with myself about what I truly wanted, and then to make the decision to follow my heart.

In this episode, I share with you...

...and much more in this packed episode of true stories, including sailing into dragons, why life is just like that movie Contact, and how I got to have my cake and eat it too because Life is so good.

As if in answer to a question posed from deep inside the heart, I stumbled into the path of the one who became my Spiritual Teacher.

This question had no words -- it was more like a soundless cry for help that went out from me in a broadcast of concentric waves.

And with the readiness, those waves came back as an answer from the Universe and coalesced in form in the snowy French Alps.

This episode is the story of how, in the months before that life-changing encounter, the readiness came about.

I share with you...

... and much more, including werewolves, the power of language to kill or to heal, and permission to 'mess it up'.

We are spiritual beings having a human experience. We don't have to 'be' spiritual -- we already are.

Our challenge is to be fully human. And that means fully accepting our humanity.

Part of our human nature is the ego. 

In spiritual work, we're told we must transcend the ego. And this is true.

But we can't transcend something until we fully embrace it.

Spirituality is not the denial of everything that comes with being human. It's accepting it as exactly what is needed for our spiritual growth.

Today we begin a new journey together on The Path of Grace -- my path.

In this series, a sort of 'prequel' to the popular series on how I manifested my dream home in France, I'm going to share with you as openly as I can about my own journey on the spiritual path -- the challenges and dark nights of the Soul that have been mine to navigate, and how I got through them.

My hope is to accompany you on your journey so that you'll feel less alone as you do the same.

Today I share...

And much more, including walking meditations in the snowy French Alps, actor ego trips, and how you can back up into the best thing that's ever happened to you even though you've resisted every step of the way.

I also open up the floor for questions that have come up during this series (see the link below to submit yours), to which I will devote an entire future episode!

Does it sometimes feel like you've been shot out of a cannon, or that things are happening so fast it's blowing your hair back?

That's Ascension, baby. 

And it's happening whether you want it to or not.

We are moving from one octave to another, vibrationally speaking.

If you live on planet Earth -- and if you're reading this, you probably do -- it's mandatory.

We can go willingly, embracing the changes, and see this as an exciting time we were born for and that our souls have chosen to experience...

...or you can succumb to fear, negativity and despair as the old world crumbles.

We must choose the reality we want to live in. It's up to us.

These tools can help you make the transition from density to Light body.

The alchemical keys that I've been sharing with you during this series belong in your Ascension Toolbox. 

Whenever you feel stuck, heavy, emotional or even in a full-on freak-out, these little phrases can point you back to Truth.

I know, because I've tested them all. On myself.

In this episode, we'll...

review all the alchemical keys of this series and which might be best suited to your situation

learn more about Ascension, why some things look like they're falling apart, and how to make it easier on yourself

discover why you only need one tool to undo the entire structure of the ego -- and why we still avoid committing to it

see how to recognize and avoid one of the main pitfalls of the spiritual seeker

And much more, including solar flares, the astral sideshow, and how great we all are at collapsing the wave function. I also share with you the tool I'm using most right now, and how it's changing my life.

What if when we were growing up, our mother asked us that along with 'did you clean your room?'

The subconscious is the storehouse of memory, programs, beliefs and conditioning -- in other words, karma. Karma is the burden of the past, everything that weighs heavily on us and makes life feel hard. 

Inner Alchemy is the transformation and dissolution of karma, through which we rediscover our original innocence and incorruptibility, as fresh and ever-new as springtime.

In today's episode, you'll discover...

And much more, including Mohammed Ali and Howard Cosell, childhood belching contests, and what I learned about spiritual hygiene from my cousin and the true story of his house sliding down a hill. Ever so slowly.

Divine Order and Justice are supreme in the Universe. Nothing is random and everything is expressing its essence perfectly, regardless of our judgments and opinions.

In a paradigm of causality, where we believe that one thing is causing another, it's easy to convince yourself that life is unfair or that some people have all the luck while others don't.

But when we go beyond the linearity of the Newtonian paradigm and into the Quantum realm of reality, we realize that everything in our experience unfolds from our vibrational interaction with the Field of Consciousness. 

I've had the great good fortune of learning from two amazing 'lucky' people in my life: my brother and my husband. They make life look easy; but believe me, luck has nothing to do with it.

What some people call luck is really all about who you are BEING.

And when you embody kindness, generosity, playfulness, gratitude, humour, lovingness, trust, and joy, the universe opens the doors for you and you are provided for.

In fact, everything we need is freely given to us. Whatever you need is yours for the asking.

In this episode, you'll learn...

And much more, including the special power of Cat Daddies, fig trees, and the story behind this podcast's theme music!

How can you have more if you give more?

If you do the math, it doesn't seem to make sense. Giving away necessarily implies that what you've given away, you no longer have.

Then again, it depends on your interaction with the field of consciousness, and the spirit with which you live your life.

Whatever we give, we receive. Whatever we offer as a vibration returns to us in kind.

If we offer kindness and love, it returns to us as more kindness and love.

If we offer resentment and smallness of spirit, Life responds with smallness and meanness.

Everything is a mirror, offering us insight into ourselves and the energy we're holding -- if we're willing to look.

Today's alchemical key unlocks the door to greater joy and abundance.

It dissolves the Scrooge in us -- the selfish, small-minded, ungenerous, tight-fisted, jealous tendencies of the ego that are at the source of so much pain individually and collectively.

In this episode, you'll learn...

And much more. I tell you a story about how I first consciously discovered that I could easily move into an upward spiral of 'feel-good vibes' -- as I was pin-curling my hair for a wig!

Most of us feel like life dictates the degree of freedom we have. Externally we live within certain boundaries and limitations that are imposed from without by the laws of man and the laws of nature.

We may feel limited in our freedom of time, money, or physical capacities too.

It can be frustrating to chafe against these limitations when we want to express more of who we are in the world.

But outer freedom is an expression of inner freedom.

Are you able to find inner spaciousness in any situation? 

Can you feel free no matter what's going on around you?

Free from the inner oppression of fear, worry, anxiety, doubt?

That feeling of dread that you’re about to be beset by a mind attack or emotional storm and there’s nowhere to run?

It is our ultimate destiny as human beings to transcend our lower nature and live as the joy, love, and spaciousness of our True Nature.

But don't put that day off in the future for yourself. 

Now is the time to choose to be free.

In this episode of Inner Alchemy, we'll explore...

And much more. I also share a story about a recent experience where I was faced with temptation by the spiritual ego around the very issue of freedom, and how the inner conflict was resolved.

Join me now as we get real in The Grace Space!
