Trauma robs us of our ability to choose...

What if there is no quick fix?

I recorded this talk on cultivating choice as a way to learn how to grieve, how to pray with potency and how to channel our rage into creative solutions and offerings that give back, as opposed to take while in India. Please enjoy and let us know wha you think!

Ty to Jeff from Cosmic Cousins for putting together this episode, we love you.

We have one space left for our Goddess Pilgrimage happening January 2025 so please read this page and apply if you want to come!

Trauma robs us of choice and imagination which are both required to take action rooted in love in this heavy world.

We can't change something in our minds, in our thoughts from the same state of consciousness that it was created in. So we have to learn how to access different states and fields of consciousness.

And that is an intersection with our soul, the waters of our human being and the states that are autonomic nervous system.

So most of us know of freeze, flight, fight, fawn and appease by now.

But there's also beautiful states we enter, what we call in somatic work “ventral vagal tone” and what in the mystical traditions we call flow or in it’s most amplified, samadhi.

There are states of like when we go into experiencing ourselves as Divine Light, as Love itself, of profound courage, in-SPIRIT-ation, and comPASSION right? That's a real living energy and state in our experience of being human.

That's not separate from us.

But we must shout NO from our guts to free that patriarchal religious shame, and NO the denial of the climate crisis and Genocides. We must speak truth to power, as leaders of the feminine which means we get fuckin’ down and we also don’t deny the wild richness that God has places in each of our hearts.

Check out our yearly Dark Goddess Doula Practitioner Training here if you want to learn more somatics and also get great business support along the way. Warning: your business partner has to be Goddess so it’s not for everyone. No marketing scams but real alignment and insights from years of building and running businesses.
