Working privately with Amber has opened up a window from which I can breath a bit better. It has shifted my perspective and has cast a different light on the way I think about a lot of things in my life. Feels quite life changing and exciting... and I love it!

  • M A G I C are the moments that strip life back to the bare bones. The world melts, it’s just you, this moment and your open and unprotected heart. So pure in presence it exposes your fears and anchors you in your very raw and humbling humanity. They’re the moments that’s force you to face the very grave reality, which is all too often drowned out by busyness: this is all gonna’ end. It’s all impermanent. It’s fast paced. It’s messy. It’s temporary. It’s hell and heaven. There are no guarantees. None. And that it’s equally freeing as it is terrifying. The deeper I dive, the more I realise that what occurs in each moment is in fact, it. Right here. Right now. This is it. This is fucking it, loves. If you can get that. That this moment is it. It’s all there is. It’s all there ever will be. You can stop the struggle. Because when you face what is, openly, you have the power of unrestricted potential in your hands. The paradox of letting go and having it all. OR. You can examine, analyse, strategize, conclude and worry all your life. You see you are still not in control. That’s a porky pie lie. Right in this very now, for better or for worse, is what we have. We can accept this. We can repeat it like a mantra. We can live this as often as possible, returning to the ultimate truth that can anchor us here again. We can see more clearly now, that we are not in control, so we may as well let go and appreciate. And with that, we have immediate and immense joy. Because acceptance of the present moment has nothing to do with resignation. And everything to do with loving what is because fighting reality is what fucks up life. Acceptance is a clear acknowledgment that what is happening, is happening. No fighting. Just being. It’s the energy of acceptance that ensues manifestation. You can’t create anything when you’re fighting with life. So now, you might try acting out of a deep knowing that, “this is it.” Is it possible for you to contemplate that in a very real way? That, this right now, is perfection? And. If that was so, what would it mean for you? Well. You can let go, and live. That, love, is how magic is born.
  • 7 years ago exactly I remember treating a 12 year old patient with sarcoma (cancer of the connective tissue). He was wearing a nappy because of incontinence from the cancer chewing into the nerves in his lower spine. His mother came to every treatment. She was tender yet fierce. Her son was going to die within 12 months. She was raw and strong and her kindness wrapped us all in light. I remember learning that kindness coupled with a vulnerable strength healing beyond any medications It was a miracle if he could sit up for an hour, a feat we all collectively cheered each time. I remember feeling a sense of deep gratitude for my life. The fragility, unpredictability, the importance of celebrating the tiny wins. I remember another patient at the time. Three years old. She was blind because there was benign a tumour pressing on her optic nerve in her skull. She was the brightest soul I’ve ever met. We’d play hide and seek (hilarious with a blind three year old, shed use sound and smell to find me, it was extraordinary). It remember learning that we have superpowers we forget, and that joy is within, independent of your circumstances. A blind three year old and incontinent 12 year old with cancer taught me more than a medical bachelor degree. I remember feeling suffocated and like I’d wasted four years of my life. This place wasn’t for me (the system against my values). I was scared to leave behind my degree and security. I remember resigning, feeling ashame Having little confidence but absolute trust in the process... 7 years later, without realising it. I’m teaching presence (meditation), mindfulness of the senses, emotional intelligence and wellbeing, gratitude, kindness so people can find the joy in their heart and purpose in life. To show up as the highest expression of self. You can’t see the forest from the trees but you can always follow the path that feels “right”, even if no ones walked it, map your own and trust. Learning to trust yourself is a process of reconditioning the reflex of pulling back to safety. My Alchemy Upgraded program targets self connection, trust and purpose.

  • I believe each and every one of us has an individual expression of ourselves that we are here to access and living from that organically brings light and supports others to do the same. When we resist discomfort, our lives become a series of learned habits to avoid our sore spots, trying to change others, living inauthentically, giving away our power and playing small. A sense of lack or emptiness sits underneath our mental noise and it’s a life of settling for just being, ‘okay’. The purpose is to embody and align with your highest expression and continue to grow, evolve and just by being you, bring light to the lives of every person you meet in your own unique way. This work is everyone’s work, and I’m deeply passionate about empowering people to do this, self guided. To become sovereign in your existence, free from relying and searching for answers.

  • The mind lies. Its primary job is to protect us from pain. When we have emotions rise in our body such as fear, sadness or anger the mind has a simple protective mechanisms to move away from them; blame, deflection and analysis; I feel like this because X, Y or Z. Basically, a reasoning of sorts. Because just like all thoughts, if we can reason something, it gives us a false sense of being in control. These reasons, more often than not, are quite literally just a story. Albeit a good and justified one, but a story nonetheless. A story that prevents us from being able to allow the emotion that was awakened in the interaction to rise and release. And I say rise because an intense emotional reaction is generally due to an unprocessed experience of the past and / or a part of the collective unconscious (our fears) we can all do our part in shedding. Either way, it’s rising up to come out; and the stories prevent the healing to occur. So what’s this story look like in real life? Example. I was coaching a client a few months back and she was in a distressed state. Her home situation was incredibly challenging and she was telling me about what was going on. She was 100 mile an hour, crying and explaining each person's role; and the clash in values, crossing of boundaries and the struggles of her mixed family. “Sammy, pause for a moment. What you’re sharing is important to me. What you’re feeling is real and valid. But as you know, I care not for your story, only for what you feel. Take a breath, let’s get you into your body.” For about 20 minutes we used breath and guidance to release the emotion. Most of the time she was in silence, sometimes with tears streaming. Before this exercise, she was so certain that her son and family who expected so much of her were the cause of her anxieties and depression. That they were the problem and they needed to change. After the emotion was released, I ask her now what was coming up, what did she see now? “I’ve been neglecting myself and giving with the expectation that I will be loved if I do everything for everyone. I haven’t set boundaries. I didn’t respect myself, so neither did they." Ahhh. The truth.Part2⬇️
  • Ever had trouble switching off? I teach you some really simple techniques that you can do yourself whenever you’re feeling busy in the mind or up in your head when you’d rather be winding down.

  • Hold Your Self Hold your heart Hold your light Hold your dark Hold your fears Hold too insecurities Hold your lies Hold your pain Hold you brokenness Hold your jealously Hold your anger Hold you love Hold your spaciousness Hold your emptiness Hold your fire Hold your hurt Hold your coldness Hold your power Hold your truth Hold your shame Hold your neediness Hold your anxiety Hold your sexuality Hold your pulsations Hold your sensations Hold your discomforts Hold your strengths Hold your magic Hold all of you. Every part All the fucking time Hold yourself, knowing you need nothing or no one to keep your safe, supported, seen, felt, honoured, heard and loved. And watch in the precise moment you’ve got yourself, all of yourself. What you wanted is yours. You’re held. And thus, you can let go. Do the things. Embody what you teach. Apply what you preach. Show up in integrity. Because there’s nothing to fear. Nothing to hold onto. The paradox is. You crave it, you can’t have it. You let go of needing it, it’s yours. Be a magnetic in the way you hold yourself, love. Be vigilant in this grip and you’ll notice that the power we were seeking, the love you were craving and the light you were trying to earn pokes its graceful head outside, from within.
  • ❤️ to appreciate the importance of this.
  • If you want to be able to teach, lead, create, assist in healing, advise, guide, support, encourage or generate success that lasts, you have to understand that knowing is not the same as embodying. And doing is not the same as being. If you change your behaviour before you change your internal mindset and energy, you’ll sabotage, regress, feel insecure and most of all, you’ll struggle to experience the shift in emotion and energy you’re wanting! Energy first! Embodiment over knowledge! Also - this is simply my experience, take what resonates and leave the rest on the shelf ❤️
  • If you ask me what I live for, I'll say catharsis. And love. And connection. And writing. And magic. And orgasms. And the priceless peace of the mundane. And saying the word, fuck, when it counts. And the potential in darkness. And inspiration in the unknown. And ice cream. And my own company. And adventures with strangers. And the light in me lighting the light in you. And the power or presence. And the wholeness of nothing. And the fulfilment of the journey.  We live in an energy-responsive world where intention radiates throughout. Fundamental to everything is attitude and perception. So, if you think believing in you and your magic is dangerous and ignorant, try not believing in magic at all.  I believe in possibility and will never be a defeatist against negativity and fear.
  • Let’s chat self-healing and empowerment, can’t elp’ maself. In order to evolve from whats true for you and raise into the vitality and wisdom of the truth, you must first be willing to wholeheartedly endure the experience of powerlessness that we inevitably must succumb to when we bravely admit to ourselves, we actually have no fucking idea. The truth is that which exists, what is without any bias. What's true, is our individual reality, one filtered through experience and conditions and is unique to us. This is both beautiful and destructive. Beautiful because the experience of life is truly about that, experiencing ourselves in all we are and all we are not, but destructive because if we hold onto what is true as the truth, we suffer. Coriander for example. What's true for me is that its fucking fabulous. For many others, its horrendous. The truth is, it’s coriander. We exist in order to evolve, and that cannot be done if you’re rigid in your meanings, definitions, beliefs about what is right and wrong, good or bad or did or did not happen. The wonderful thing is, what’s true for us one day, can change the next with our presence, openness and willingness to release our judgments and projections. Basically if you’re open to the idea that what you’re seeing and experiencing is not necessarily what is, you’re going to be a lot less challenged as life swallows, chews and spits you out. But if you are righteous in what's true, you will likely feel victimised, angry, judgmental and bitter (for as long as you choose to hold on). At the very roots of healing trauma is a shift in perspective. So, it's imperative to honour what is true for us, we can chill a little in knowing that there is always a vaster and more spacious truth of our hurts that can transcend all trauma. Underneath it all, there is a deeper truth, a wholeness to each event and moment in life. This impenetrable knowing permeates each moment that can either set you on fire, or set you free.

  • Whaddddaaffaaaaarrrrrk is the practical method for surrender? I got you, boo. Because truly, have you ever calmed when being told to calm? Chilled when told to chill? Surrender when told to let go? I remember asking my meditation teachers and master of many dimensions @kurtthemeditationmechanic “okay Sufi, but HOW do I let go? Really?”. He does what he always does and chuckled and watched me struggle with such a simple concept for a while. I made a little guided audio for those of you who relate to Amber 7 years ago (and or 7 days, heh). Links in stories/bio or type in the inter webs http://www.amberhawken.com/howtoletgo/ On a side extension of this, I created it because the difference between knowing how to surrender and surrendering is embodiment - you must know it in your very being in order to benefit, love. And to know it in your being, you must be comfortable in your self connection. UNLESS WE HAVE A DEEPER CONNECTION WITH SELF, THE IMPERMANENCE OF LIFE, AN APPRECIATION OF UNCONSCIOUS CREATION AND TAKE SOME RESPONSIBILITY AND TAKE BACK OUR POWER, WE’RE PRETTY....well, you know. WE REPEAT MANTRAS WHILST STILL BEING RIDDLED WITH SELF-DOUBT OR SHAME. It don’t help to be in your head. We can feel a little better with a self-love chat, a focused attention on surrender and even releasing control by telling yourself you are letting it all go. But more often than not that self-love has an undertone of narcissism, the focused attention is just a mental distraction from the present discomfort and the release of control simply a defeatist attitude, all without releasing it. So now, let’s rebuild, embody and embrace surrender with a deeper understanding to ensure we aren’t just skipping over and suppressing fear, resentment and shame that is, later on, going to bite us in our universal, cyclical human asses. I made this audio for you which also contains a guided meditation that will help you embody this understanding as well as strengthen your emotional awareness. Enjoy ❤️ Also launching 2020s first Alchemy retreat - we’re taking things to the next level. If you want in, comment YES and I’ll DM you early bird application link.
  • L I M I T A T I O N I N V O C A T I O N (the stuff you say in your head and with your mouth) is fucking up your magic. Its the dialogue that supports smallness, extends procrastination and ensues sabotage of greatness. It is always hard to believe that the courageous step towards the right path is so close to us. That it (the life your soul is fucking screaming you expand into) is closer than we ever could imagine, that in fact, we already know what it is, and that the step is simpler, more radical than we had thought. Which is why we so often prefer the story to be more elaborate, our identities clouded by fear, the horizon safely in the distance, the essay longer, the project harder than it is, the risk grandeur and far more intimidating than it needs to be and the answer safely in the realm of impossibility. What they don’t tell you, is that the story you’ve concocted about your inability, unreadiness, worthlessness and fraudulence is boring, dear. Let it die now. Let it wilt and wither and fertilise the ground of your next adventure 🌱 let it be that simple. You’re far to brilliant to invoke limitation any longer. The world awaits. Give a me a ❤️ if you feel me
