Under the Bodhi Tree

From a young age, we have all been indoctrinated with this pattern of seeking. We are constantly looking for things outside of us, and trying to "know". We idolize the intellect and forget the magic of intuition. While the intellect is a valuable tool for practical situations, perhaps the tool of intuition is much more suited for navigating our life path and reality as a whole. I've got Henzo joining me on the show this week speaking to the power of intuition and how it shows up. He uncovers the magic that arises in each moment when we stop seeking, and he gracefully reveals the power of letting go of our egoic agenda, in dedication to a greater devotional service. When we let go of what "we want to happen" and dive into, what "wants to happen" we begin an unknown journey into the mystery. 

Let go of the mind, step into the nothing

Thanks for the depth and wisdom Henzo

thank you all for joining and listening ;)

It's time to wake the fuck up. We are being called by the universe to step into a power greater than ourselves and to throw ourselves into the fire of transformation. We are being called, and I am asking you, as the universe, through bonzai, to step up and get out of the way for life to move through you. The time is now. In this weeks episode, we're getting deep into the wisdom that was delivered to me during my ayuhuasca ceremony a few weeks ago. We will look at letting go of expectations and how expectations stand in the way of us witnessing the magic that lies in front of us. We'll talk about trusting yourself and the super powers that come out of that deep trust, and we'll dive head first into shame. The work is showing itself to us right now, each of us in our own separate ways. Its time to clean out our closet, let go of the old stories, beliefs and skeletons and step in to the new world that we can and will create together. Life wants to live, we just need to get out of the way

thank you all so much for listening

This weeks episode is such a fun one! Time and i get deep in exploring the foundational defects that are riddled in our societal systems and our cultural conditioning. Whether it's our destination and achievement focused mindsets, or our perpetuation of the illusion of lacking, not enoughness and separateness to encourage consumerism and a dependency on the external world for our "completeness", our patriarchal systems have set us up for a mindset of domination, savagery and cannibalism. Tim and I go deep into the roots of why we've arrived, as a species,to such a vital and pivotal moment. The time is urgent, we must slow down.

It's time to turn this ship around to move towards a way of living where we recognize our part in the web of everything, where we step into our role as vital caretakers of this incredible planet that holds us, and to move toward a regenerative way of living, rather than one that destroys and dominates.

This episode was nothing short of magic. Gecomama and I sat together in my living space in Bali at 8 am and through her deep vulnerability and fearlessness, Gecomama shares her journey through deep pain and disconnection to embodiment and speaking for those who cannot. Her practice of dance, movement and connection emerged after an incredibly challenging experience of sexual assault. As shame, and disconnection arose toward her body, her path to love, acceptance and truth began. As she started performing, and connecting deeply to the vessel that carries her soul, over time and with practice, she opened and opened and began to step deeply into her power and share her story. As she continues to share, perform and be heard, she inspires all of us to face our traumas, meet our past and with love, share the story. Gecomama, words cannot begin to describe the respect and admiration I have for you. You are a true leader and a fearless warrior. Thank you for your dedication to love and healing, and your commitment to yourself and this world.

In deep honor and gratitude

So it's been a powerful month to say the least. After spending 29 days in a love box/dark room meditation retreat, im back out of the womb and interacting in the world again. In today's episode we're diving into the world that arose within the darkness. We're talking about the process of letting go, emotional integration, letting yourself go crazy and the value of being ok with what is. This ones a fun one that goes pretty deep. It's good to be back and podcasting, connecting with the world in a new way. Sending deep love and truth out into the ether.

Thanks for listening!
Warmth to all

Hey loves,

this week im recording, just a few days before i come out of the dark room. We'll be exploring the concepts of what it really means to step into the mystery of life, to let go of control and trying to make things happen a certain way. I wanna encourage a deep surrender in your lives, as collectively, as a human race we move towards a new paradigm of deeper connection to ourselves and the earth, and a deepening into trusting our paths. 

with deep love!

See you soon world!

This week was a powerful one. Olga's on the show and we're getting deep into the world of tattoos and intentional ritualistic markings. Olga has an incredible and inspiring journey through surrender, trust and listening to the universe as life pulled her to connect with a south korean tattoo artist, who would be a part of her life forever. As she moves through life, with the five elements tattooed on her back, she has infused her body with trust, and a deep knowing, that she is always supported. The world of tattoos is fascinating and as Olga and I explore what happens when we put intentional into our process, life becomes increasingly sacred. 

Olga, thank you for your beautiful sharing and your journey

This weeks episode is a trippy one. We're getting into the world of time travel. Through a series of interesting events and experiences, i've started to develop an alternative perspective on time and how i relate to the world of linearity and cycles. This weeks short little chat, will be exploring the world beyond time and space and stepping into practices that can powerfully enhance the depth of our intimacy with life.

This week's episode is next level. I've got Tess on the show and we're getting deep into taking accountability for our emotions and for our lives. We're exploring how we give our power away constantly, ,and when we blame others for our emotional responses, it actually holds us back from living our truth. Tess works in the world of therapy, guiding and holding space for others in a myriad of ways, to empower them to wake the fuck up from the limiting beliefs that imprison us. Through the practice of deep self inquiry, piece by piece, we dismantle our limiting belief systems and find freedom from our mind. Tess is an incredible and inspiring woman who is a force of truth. Her deep compassion, deep empathy and radical authenticity makes her a powerful mirror for us to see in our selves, where we are and aren't showing up.

Tess offers sessions both on and offline and I couldn't recommend her more. If you vibe with her and are looking to level up in your life, contact her here

https://www.tessmallettembodymind.com.au

To look into self inquiry, the first four questions you can ask yourself when you're triggered are as such: (drop the question into your consciousness, and just allow whatever comes up, to come up. Theres no such thing as a "right" answer. There can also be multiple answers for each question)

1. What is the problem? What was the thought that caused negativity, heaviness, discomfort, limitation or resistance? (a negative thought will often include the following words and phrases: this means, what if, should, shouldn’t, never/always, can’t, making me - in the statement)  

2. Close your eyes, what images of the past arise when you think that thought. Describe the scene (images, soundscape, feelings).

3.   What will or will not happen in your life because of this? Describe the scene (images, soundscape, feelings).

4. Whose business is it? (yours, theirs, the universe)

Tess, you're a boss. Thank you for the time and space

Ayuhuasca and Fasting. Thats what we're getting into this week. I was gonna chat with cris about her incredible pottery and artistic design skills and it looks like the universe wanted something else. Catching cris in the middle of her 10 day fast was such a blessing and synchronicity as we were really able to dive into the nature of the mind when we choose to let go of our idea of "what our body needs" to survive. When we take the time to fast, to deprive ourselves, we can start to take spaciousness and develop new relationships with the things in our life. After a break up, we take time away from our partner before we can come back together and relate differently. During covid, we are taking a break from the "norm" from life, to bring clarity in how we relate to our everyday. Cris has had a powerful journey, both through fasting and her plant medicine journeys. This week we'll be going deep into revealing truth about life, with cris
