Hi Friends,

This past Tuesday marked the inaugural Online Breath & Belonging gathering and it was so beautiful. And a reminder, yet again, that we are more powerful than we realize to create profound healing in our lives. The breath is such an extraordinary tool. I’m obsessed. I’ll be guiding these breathwork journeys live every Tuesday night via Zoom, and I really encourage you to check one out. Go HERE for details about the gathering next Tuesday, May 3rd. The registration will always be discounted for paid subscribers to this newsletter.

I’ve been told by many people they like it when I read my writing, so I recorded the audio above of me reading four pieces of writing that I wrote at different times and feel connect to one another. The writings are also pasted below if you prefer to read them yourself.

I’m thinking about playing with more audio in these newsletters, so please please please let me know if you’re a thumbs up or down on that idea. Also let me know if there’s something else you’d like to see in this newsletters. I’m really grateful for your comments, and your input.

Here are the four pieces I read in the audio:

Where all of these writings connect is in our ability to choose how we relate to ourselves, and to trust that when we are compassionate and loving with ourselves, which is always an option, we create for ourselves a more grounded, joyful and meaningful life. And, in turn, naturally support others in the creation of such a life, too. Self-love is a win win win win win. For everyone and everything.

Please don’t let yourself get lost in the notion of self-love as selfish. It is selfish, of course, but a divine selfishness that serves us all. There will never be a downside to loving yourself, and there will always be innumerable upsides. So let’s get busy loving the hell out of ourselves so we can love the hell out of each other and our world. Okay?

Don’t forget to let me know what you think of the audio. Want more?

Wishing you Big and Bigger Love,

Scott

Bigger Love is a reader-supported newsletter. If you’re loving it, and have the means, consider becoming a paid subscriber.

Join me for Online Breath & Belonging on Tuesday, May 3rd, and every Tuesday evening after that. We gather via Zoom, do a short meditation, set our intentions and then get to breathing. Discounted registration for paid subscribers to this newsletter.

I’ll also be leading in-person breathwork classes in Santa Fe: Mondays from 2-3pm at Santa Fe Community Yoga Center, and Wednesdays from 6-7pm at BODY of Santa Fe. Join me live if you’re in the area.

If you feel called to support my work financially (thank you thank you thank you!), here are some ways to do it:

You can buy signed and personalized copies of my books, Just Love and/or Big Love through my website (only available in the US at this time). They make beautiful gifts for someone you love. I promise to write something lovely.

You can get a paid subscription to this newsletter for $7/month or $70/year. Whether you are here with a free or paid subscription, you have access to all the same content. Paid subscribers do get significant discounts to most of my individual workshops, though. If it’s within your budget, I appreciate you considering a paid subscription.

You can gather a group of friends and book me for a private online or in-person workshop, where we dive into whatever topics and questions you want to explore. This is a new offering and one I’m very excited about. You don’t have to wait for me to announce a workshop and hope the timing is right. We can agree on a date and take it from there.

It means so much that you’re here. Thank you!

Remember: You are beautiful. You are worthy. You are loved. As you are.
