Since talking with Dr. Singh, I keep coins in the car for those that ask.

I see Dr. Mate's "Irreducible Needs" mirrored and explained according to the Chakra system. According to Anodea Judith, there are 7 fundamental rights of the soul and 7 demons that result when we distort the loving growth of the soul.
Judith writes, "The quickest way to minimize the divine within is to interfere with it's basic rights." These are the rights we are reclaiming as adults through mind/body healing.

It's amazing to me to see beliefs and perception of mind/body connection and energy modalities being championed by some sectors of science.
This union is not new, as Dr. Gabor Maté says in "The Myth of Normal". The understanding of mind body connection with the whole of the universe has been a common place acceptable truth in the Eastern world view for millennium.
Apparently, the West is catching up.

It's kind of funny how we think of "personal best/personal growth" as being something different than who we are; when it's actually removing anything that stops us from accepting the truth of who we have always been.
The truth of you is more amazing than anything you could add on your own. There is no mistake to you. There is only our own mistaken limits that we believe are true.

I struggle with surrender& acceptance on the Spiritual path, because I have preferences & wants & likes & dislikes, & I don't always like what I'm getting.
It's hard to accept things as they are when things as they are suck sh!t.
I don't think I get better at this... I just have to keep reminding myself:
"What is this for? How is this for me?"
There's always an answer... it's just how long it takes to get there. Lol.
When something is truly 'not about me' - we will feel zero emotional reaction to the situation. We may feel concern or want to comfort or commiserate, but we are not personally, emotionally affected. We continue to feel calm, peace... equilibrium.
It is liberating to own our sh!t and learn the truth of who we are by embracing the discomfort and asking "what is this for"?

This world is wild. The way it's set up to give us the exact experience we need to recognize and accept the truth of ourselves as one in wholiness with each other is a TRIP.
And we f*ck that sh!t up on the daily. lol. It's okay.
According to Dr. Maté, our brains are hard-wired to expect warm welcome everywhere at all times. Every experience of meaness and rejection and pain is a trauma to our little brains.
This feeling doesn't stop as we grow. We live in a traumatized world that we have normalized. This is not normal.

Customer service + working with the public are great paths to spritual growth and healing - if you have the strength and bravery. It will all come at you, ready or not.
I struggle with retail. lol.

More from "The Myth of Normal" by Gabor Maté.
I feel like heart-centred, spirituality-based people will read this and be like, "yeah - of course." It feels validating for this worldview to be supported by science.
Nothing about our society is inerrant or 'fated'. It's all just choices made based on bad information. We have better information now. Let the revolution begin.
The Myth of Normal is science validating my life-long feeling sense of the world in a way I have never experienced before. Fundamentally we need the safety and security to feel and express our emotions in order to become fully mature and functioning human beings.
Ummm, YEAH
Western society has been traumatizing generations by trying to flatten us all into consuming, worker automatons.

I've been listening to "The Myth of Normal" by Gabor Maté. It's a little disorienting to hear science supporting perceptions of the body that I learned about 30 years ago in "New Age", "alternative modalities" of healing like Eastern Body Western Mind and Hands of LIght.
The systems of Western Society - ... all the isms, are based in harmful beliefs that ultimate reality is made up of separate bits of stuff.
What I do to you I do to myself.

The first year of Transpersonal Coaching at ICU changed how I move through the world. It's only in community with others can we dig in and transform behaviours that limit our experience of life lived in wholiness. I could only go so far on my own. I'm grateful to find Jane and Paul and the crew at ICU.

What are your thoughts on religion? I'm conflicted - so much potential twisted into power over hierarchy garbage.
There is only Loving Inclusion. Wholiness is the only thing I know for sure is real.
What kind of holy sh!t do you have in your life? This is mine.
It's my path to talk about uncomfortable subjects and ask uncomfortable questions.
Please and welcome - welcome to my Holy Sh!t.

What triggers me holds the greatest potential for growth, and there is always so much more energy available when I stop trying to nail down how *someone else* is at fault.
It's always us. Our emotional reactions are *always* us.

I wish that I had known, and really embodied this concept earlier in my life - but I guess that's the whole point of being young. We're figuring it out.
Our terrible mistakes hold the seeds to our greatest gifts. For real.

Alter Egos was a trip and so valuable.
There are a lot of special gifts needed to live fulfilling lives that are buried because they are not received positively by those around us.
What have you been criticized for or called out for repeatedly in your life? It holds wisdom.

"Heal this / Achieve this / Learn this / Do this / Feel this... THEN I can be happy/successful/peaceful...." It's exhausting because life just keeps on serving up bumps and rough spots and triggers.
I'm starting to see "purpose" as simply my choice in each moment to see through the lens of Beloved Presence. I'm either choosing wholiness, or not; following the bread crumbs of joy as they are, not how I wish they would be.
