  • You can’t self help or yoga practice away self rejection. A Robert Holden quote similar to this shared by @adachikendra inspired a little piece on alignment yesterday. @longdistancelovebombs got into a chat about it during a business planning session yesterday, for which we began with how we wanted our life to look and feel, as opposed to what kind of projects we were going to do. If you can get clear and honest with what kind of life will allow you to reach your greatest potential of self realisation and expression, it can be your true north for which you base every life decision on. Sounds easier than it is because of course, choosing true north usually means giving up the fake north, also known as social and life conditioning of should or the painful moments in life we try to avoid experiencing again. These beliefs and conditions become the four walls of our own jail. The stories we tell ourselves about who we are, what we need, the world around us and other people determine our entire experience of life itself. Freedom and being able to have what you want and feel fucking alive has nothing to do with the consumption of content, western or eastern alike, it’s got to do with your relationship and connection to yourself and your higher purpose. If you’re rejection either in anyway, you’ll suffer. Self acceptance is only a concept because we’re not aware that the thoughts in our head and beliefs we have are in fact, not true and or we have a choice as to wether we believe and feed them through attention or actions. What I’m saying is what my legend of a friend @hayleycarr.tv says (a little better than what I remember I’m sure), the life you want is so much close than you think. I hope you know that you’re loved, worthy, capable and life is waiting for you to stop feeding any stories that suggest otherwise.
  • Did you know your heart can be deeply fucking full of love and also thumping with grief and sadness? I didn’t, until now. When you spend four days in a magical land with one of the most deeply present dudes on the planet @longdistancelovebombs , with a group of queens. Who have been opening, shedding, breathing, reshaping, purging, mapping, connecting, igniting and expanding as a unit. Blowing the fuck out of limitations in life and then, simultaneously and serendipitously, life pops a good old plot twist in your lap. This leads you to choose, very suddenly, to close a massive chapter in life you’d assumed was forever.... and just like that you’re faced with the extremes of the heart spectrum. One of the retreat attendees asked me how I stomach living so openly, “how the hell do you have the courage to just go for it all with all you have? Aren’t you scared”. Good bloody question. Hadn’t thought of it like that. Here’s my take, I’m a little tired so excuse the lack of creative visuals. The paradox of the adventure is that magic isn’t bias towards safety or comfort. It doesn’t give a shit if you have decided to go north and pick blueberries in fields of dancing sunflowers drinking fantastic wine, if it knows you must go east to ride the ridgeback dragon it’ll take you there. And if you were super keen for blueberries in sunflower fields, the the path to the ridgeback can hurt like Satans pitchfork digging into your arteries. The trick is to a) ride the ridgeback and notice the view and b) appreciate that sometimes if you want a life where you’re dancing in fields and riding dragons, you maybe sometimes get splinters and or a burn here and there. If you’re on the dragon thinking about blueberries you’ll be staring st your belly button miserable as fuck and missing out. AND. Also. The most fabulously, spectacular, mind blowing, heart filling moments of my life were because I went all in...so were the most painful. For me, the aches now and again are more than worth the fabulousness that dominates. Stay open. Choose adventchya, mate.
  • Three reasons why and the solutions to these blocks! Also - special half dressed Dr. Jeremy Goldberg drops the insight bombs and triggers some more gold from my brain hole.
  • Dear social media coaches, therapists, yoga teachers, poets, entrepreneurs and trainers. I’m becoming a little suffocated lately and wanted to just share. It’s only my opinion..it’s getting a bit overwhelming..all the noise.. People around the globe are confusing the healing value of self-expression with permission to intimidate and overpower others with their pain and want for power. Your purpose is expansion and inspiring others to do the same. If judgement and shame of others are part of your plan to change the world, it's not expression, it's projection. Your role isn’t to be looked up to. It’s to show up and reflect light. Dont allow a sense of entitlement of embracing your disowned parts become an exaggerated ego of expression masking the need to be seen and heard. Let your teachings be fuelled by active compassion and the blood sweat and tears of the work you’ve actually done for half a decade or more and not just “know” from a few months experience. No, you’re not going to kill people, and I guess it’s better than shooting heroin (I guess). And yes, the intentions are likely pure. However, it's prudent to pause and remember this: these people put their faith into you assuming you've got all the answers, and they need to put their faith into themselves a bit more. Are you making sure that this is your goal? If not, they become co-dependent on you, they follow and mimic you, and at first they’ll feel great, but they WILL eventually crash and burn. They need to be redirected inward, not outward. They need to strip back, not add on. They need to know that it’s not too hard at all, that they can do it. They need to know it's okay explore their own way, different to yours. This is what matters. I’ve been it all. It’s actually a pretty normal step in our evolution. So I get it, I love you, - continued in comments👇🏽
  • Don't break your metaphorical balls for intuitive answers and then make excuses about being paralysed by the fear of change. That’s like baking the best fucking cake and then telling me you have too many taste buds to eat it - the deliciousness would just be TOO much. _ Your entire life is founded on the constant of change. Learn to embrace everything that comes with it. The sweaty palms of newness. The heart race of potential rejection. The gut churn of possible failure. The forehead wrinkles of getting it all wrong. The whole damn universe is in motion. Energy moves. You are energy. If you’re not moving you’ll basically feel like shit (that’s a legit therapist term, mmkay). _ It’s like the energetic version of emotional depression. To resist the unknown, is to resist life itself. You can plan and map and prepare and take action. Damn, you can totally control everything, just know it’ll feel in your heart like you’re pushing a pineapple out of your eyeball if you stick to that safe and secure method. It’s insecurity dressed up in a ball gown called “perfection” or “the right time”. That’s bullshit. Period. _ Next time you're wondering why you're feeing stagnant or stuck, check in and ask yourself where you are neglecting your personal power; radical (and liberating) responsibility for the life you are directing and creating in each moment. Ask yourself where in your life do you know the answers and still choose to live from fear. _ I have TWO private clients spots open NOW - apply with the link in my bio (alchemy program application) and those people ALSO get a BONUS retreat if secured by this Thursday. _ P.S. this is my gangsta look. Someone @longdistancelovebombs tried to tell me that burritos are better than tacos. I wasn’t impressed.
  • THIS is why we don't stay happy for long and keep chasing our tails for enlightenment and why it’s completely in vain. You're never behind, love. It's just not possible. You're not meant to "get" anywhere, you're meant to be here, now. You’re need to be “there” is what keeps you here, see. What the actual fuck does that mean on a practical level? Stop escaping this moment by trying to make it better, or reduce discomfort, or increase pleasure, or gain power, or boost your confidence, or make gains. Etc etc blah blahdy blah. STOP. You fuckin’ it up. You’re abandoning your life. You’re stripping yourself of the sheer joy of now. You’re choosing to live in fear at all times. Just take a moment to appreciate that our world has ignorantly glorified the top of the mountain and it's fooled you into believing that if you're no there, now, you suck. It drives you to seek, chase, run and lust after validation, possessions, external love and now more than ever, "enlightenment". You my dear, need to stop that rubbish. That shit makes you cray. Honour life for the messy cycles, the impermanence, the uncontrollability, the surprises and the challenge it is and can be and suddenly, you'll see that here and now, not at the top of the mountain, there is magic. And when you find magic, you'll experience purpose, and when you experience purpose, you'll share it and inspire it in others. See, fucking glorious. Vid by @genghis_tuan
  • Still half dead from the flu, not enough to stop me honouring one of the greats. She lived a legacy and then some. Toni M 💛 Her wisdom here is the simplest way to describe what my heart beats for each day. Expand, give expansively, expand, give expansively. Repeat.
  • I watched some TV, Wild Wild Country, and some long bearded dude rubbed this spot on people’s heads and they cried and worshipped him and I was hoping maybe my influenza flu/tonsillitis might take an effing hike so I could possibly breathe, maybe sleep or even........eat. Currently in bed since Saturday. Swallowing razors, muscles on fire and coughing balls of something in horror scenes. If you don’t see me online in 48 hours send help. On another note: this was my daily txt I sent out today. “Through your nose, inhale 4, hold 4, exhale 4, hold 4. Do this 10 times. THEN say this to yourself: I let the power of now + creative potential of the unknown, move me forward into [insert affirmation of what you’d like to create in your life].” You can subscribe to get them for free (they won’t be free forever) by texting your first name to 0427 005 685. K thanks. back to dying now, bye.
  • There is nothing more powerful than radical honesty with yourself. I believe our world has the habit of getting caught up on where we should be, and this has leaked into self help and spiritual practices. It’s my opinion, and I truly believe that the most vital step in our growth is admitting where we are whilst being mindful to not deflect responsibility through a harsh shaming of self. We can be consciously and compassionately mindful by dropping into our heart and experiencing these misalignments as a part of ourselves, not separate from. Now be careful here, most of us think we do this, and we fuck it up because we might think it, admit it mentally, speak it, write it and ruminate about it, but we still do NOT embody it. You'll know if you're not because you'll be trying to constantly escape it, change it, be afraid of it and judge yourself. A good example is the resistance to the "victim" mentality. We are so focused on getting away from being a victim that the shadows of the victim play out. We judge the victim in others, we victimise ourselves mentally with external circumstances, we suffering anxiety and deep shame about not being "further along" and get fixated on why others need to change and most of all - become blind to our obsessions with getting away from our very own victim that requires our embrace and acceptance. If only we loved ourselves unconditionally. Oh the human journey. You can know something in your mind, a limitation, a shadow, an area due for expansion, but if you don’t embody, embrace, empathise, feel and release this part of you - it will run you. It will show up as n negativity in your psyche, you will only see this shadow in others, you will pull in situations to MAKE YOU FACE YOURS. We attempt to integrate our development mentally and we bypass spiritually. Enlightenment has become the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow we’re are vainly chasing, the whole time missing our opportunity to be human and experience what we’re here to experience. Mindfulness isn’t just a practice to help you sink your heart into this moment, it’s the epitome of surrendering in order to grow. Don’t fuck it up by trying to step ahead👇
  • Don’t expect to live in alignment and not piss people off. It’s part of the collective growth. We shake the world as we shake off our own conditions. Don’t be afraid ❤️
  • We hurt when we’re hurt. We get hurt when we try and reason with another’s hurt. My current practice. No responding to pain. Our power is in our presence. ❤️
  • NEW PODCAST with @mikecampbellmc Let’s talk mens integrity and mental health. We’re all intimately connected and affected by the mental wellbeing and integrity of men past, present and future. The dynamics of this interview shifts gears rapidly as we cover: •What does it mean when you ask a man “Who are you?” and how this question is not a judgement, but an invitation that will move you towards what you may not know you’re missing. •Understanding that avoidance or stimulation is a symptom of moving away from what we really need to pay attention to. Avoidance takes us in circles. •Examples of what it means to be in integrity with yourself as a man; thoughts, actions, words and life itself. •The struggles most men find themselves spinning around in and to identify where you are and what the next step may be. •Why feeling stuck and going nowhere is the perfect place to begin a deeper inquiry. •Specific questions to be able to reflect on when you feel stuck. •How to move from head to heart to be able to hear oneself, hold space and transcend emotions, deepen self connection and get to know yourself better. •Indoctrination to what it is to “be a man” and how we can ask the right questions to break away what no longer serves a man who wants to live in integrity. •How radical responsibility for emotions and self growth are fundamental to the collective healing. •The relationship between masculine and feminine in a relationship and how our partners can reflect back our self deceptions.  The Amber Hawken Podcast is available to listen and subscribe to on your chosen platform – iTunes, Spotify and Libsyn.
