Work with Claire: https://claireobeid.com/work-with-claire/ I've had a long standing relationship with Surrender.

The dance between learning to let go, to surrender and accept began for me many years ago. I even wrote an eBook about it.

And as the saying goes we often teach what we most need to learn ourselves - which means I've beautifully attracted many experiences, clients and situations to deepen my relationship with surrender.

I've explained to many who have been willing to listen that Surrender is not about giving up. It's not about waving the white flag and calling it quits - handing yourself over to whomever/whatever because you just can't anymore.

Nope, surrender to me represents the path of least resistance. It represents a deeper spiritual exploration into why something is happening as it is, what lesson is there for you within that, and how you can move in a state of flow and acceptance with what is.

Less objecting, more accepting,

That doesn't mean that you can't take action, make a change, respond to something or someone that may be creating a trigger. You are meant to show up to your life, pay attention , take action, move forward, be intentional. And sometimes that doesn't feel or look easy-breezy. No, sometimes that can feel like deep suffering, incredibly challenging and full of pot holes that we trip up over. However, learning to bring in a sense of surrender and acceptance within the trials of your life can bring about an inner sense of trust. Of knowing all that is unfolding is the perfect situation for your growth, for a future that is being woven in this very moment.

In this episode, I share about the diagnosis of Sensory Processing Disorder with my daughter Soleil and all that it has brought up to the surface. How once again the experience of Surrender has been the central element to my ability to show up for her and be in this journey together.

This episode with Ana Otero; writer, teacher, dancer, lover of all creative expressions is a deep-dive into her relationship with Mary Magdalene and all that she is here to activate within us and teach humanity.

It's a conversation for those ready to work more with the Magdalene energy and to activate the Divine Feminine energy within themselves.

Mary Magdalene as the Cosmic Divine Feminine and is here to activate a return to our soul - which is a Holy Communion with the Divine Feminine and a move inwards instead of outwards.

MM is an amazing teacher of Sacred Humanity. Her teachings are wide, varied and powerful holy work.

She is the path of unification, via the womb, which takes us through a journey via The Feminine. This journey will lead us into a unity - bringing heaven down here onto earth.

In this episode we cover:

+ Ana's Catholic background and her early connection Mother Mary and search for The Divine Feminine

+ Ana's Dark Night Of The Soul and the sudden loss of her husband

+ How Mary Magdaelene began appearing to Ana

+ How MM communicates with Ana - writing, sound and visions

+ Why embodying MM's teachings is important

+ What MM shares with Ana and why

+ Why MM will not show up to Ana or anyone else if we aren't in receptivity

+ How we enter into a state of receivership

+ Why Daily Maintenance within our Spiritual Practice is food for the soul

+ Pregnancy and other times of grounding creates more opportunity for channeling and opening up to higher vibrations

+ How the womb opens up the crown chakra

+ My personal experience with MM during a time of deep spiritual work

+ What MM has activated in me since I first "saw" her

+ Why being grounded in the body is so vital for our spiritual journey - our sacred temple

+ MM is the Feminine Christ arriving via vibrational energy

+ The duality of the feminine which ultimately calls forward unification - this is the key message from Mary Magdalene

+ Why MM is "hardwork" and represents the shadow - not just Love and Light - and will take you to the darkness.

+ Why MM is reawakening within so many of us - taking us back into soul

+ What MM represents for us within the collective and relates to our current reality as we wake up, the light intensifies

+ Why Humanity cannot have a "c-section" and bypass the "contractive" state we are in

+ MM, her relationship with Yeshua, as a mother and her role in his teachings/work but also her own work

+ How we can start working with and connecting to Mary Magdalene

+ Motherhood as a rite of passage - feminine wisdom activation

+ The power of the womb

+ The different ways to work with Ana through courses, training and form

+ Listen out for the moment when I see a spirit (or something?!) in my living room as I'm recording!

How do you feel about letting yourself get unhinged? Untethered - lost in your emotions for just a few moments. Howling, crying, sobbing, trembling with emotion and sensation.

Have you ever allowed the feeling within you to be fully felt, expressed and released - safely of course and without harming anyone else?

What if I told you that I considered one of the greatest acts of Self Compassion and Self Love to be just this - getting unhinged, allowing yourself to FEEL and honouring the release of energy and emotion that your body is crying out for.

Does that make you uncomfortable or excited?

Listen in to this episode to hear a few personal stories of when this has happened to me, and exactly WHY I believe it's so valuable to honour our feelings.

One Woke Mama – Episode 056 - Clear Vision for 2020. What is your declaration under this Full Moon?

Do you have a clear vision of what you desire? Do you know where you are heading and which direction you want to travel?

Sometimes I have trouble gaining clarity - I'm so in the present moment of my reality. Motherhood brings us so quickly into each moment. Children demand that. And I'm grateful for this lesson that motherhood has delivered. Be here NOW.

However, what I've noticed over the years, and especially over the last 6 years within the delicious depths of parenting, that if I'm not intentional about what I want then I often feel a little untethered.

Questions I find I need to hone in on are:

where I am going

what do I desire and with whom

what is important to me

what is no longer important to me

why?

what and I ready to cultivate and create

what feels good?

This is not to be in a forceful place of creation, of being in the doing constantly. Sometimes, when we drop into our Divine Feminine Energy being in flow, spontaneous, present is simply delicious. And in fact I welcome that more and more as I age. However, in order to fully surrender into that energy I do need a container, a structure around me. Guiding posts, signposts, directions. This structure creates freedom.

As I write/record this we are about to hit the third eclipse and Full Moon. We have just past the Winter Solstice - although here in the Southern Hemisphere we are still very much in winter we are now traverse, ever so slowly out of the darkness and back towards the light that is Spring and Summer.

At this half way point I often feel called to review. To gain 20-20 vision (which is pertinent considering this year has brought MUCH light to our previously poor vision on many fronts).

I'd like to provide you with a really beautiful, simple practice for tuning in to your inner intentions, to clarify what your declaration is to self. And to learn to embody the essence of this.

It's a somatic practice and one I share with many clients.

What a year it has been.

Each time I’ve move to a different level of awakening, of consciousness, something else explodes within the collective to show me where I am not awake. Where I need to pay attention, to do more to show up. As a mama, this is important to me. The children I raise, the world they will play and work in, the values, ideas, impressions I leave them with.

From our Global Climate Crisis

To handling a pandemic and the truths coming out from that experience.

To the lies we are constantly handed by government, big pharma.

From the whisperings of our civil liberties being removed and vaccines being enforced… and so on.

We’ve been bitched slapped to wake the F up, haven’t we?

And now we are here -  with the global collective attention on Anti-Racism. And let me be clear, when I say “now we are here”… I am in no way implying this is a NEW issue.

I know it’s hundreds of years in the making. You know it too.

But the world has been forced to pay attention. And as far as I can see, the world is. What matters for me though is that I am waking up.

I really want to to talk about today is Racism… I know this is uncomfortable. I know you probably feel like turning off the episode right now. Please, I ask you not to. I’m not here in judgment, or finger pointing. How can I be? I am a white woman in a western world.

What you can expect from The o2 Awakening style of breath work from union with god, higher guidance, physical healing, cathartic release, energy clearing, and so much more.

Episode 052 explores - through many stories and examples of my own - the kind of signs you might experience and see within your life, as you begin or move through your own awakening.

Some of these signs indicate discomfort, unease, struggle - and through many of my own examples from more that 15 years ago I share how we can embrace these signs and become OK with what is unfolding, knowing that it is all part of our unique journey of consciousness and awakening.
