“Making Sacred Love is Like Being an Alchemist”

Making sacred love is like being an alchemist. To be able to deeply connect to your lover is an art. I believe a great lover is someone who can go beyond the self. Someone who is a master of giving and receiving. Someone who is “attention to detail”. Someone who is selfless.

To be able to connect deeply when you engage with someone intimately you must step beyond your neediness, selfishness, your preconceived notions, your expectations, your mind and you step into the gap. You stop thinking and start becoming. Your touch becomes magic, your breath becomes one and your movement unites.
A simple touch can heal a soul. When you touch in a way that is not self-seeking, passionate and alive it opens the heart to full expansion. When you realize that everything is sacred and your connection runs deep; love can flow to its fullest potential.
If you pay attention to the need of the moment you begin to be guided in ways that are magical and not habitual, mechanical and the ever repeating known. Pay attention to your partner and where they are at today; not yesterday, not last week, not a year ago, not when you first met but TODAY!
How is their body feeling? How are they emotionally? Who are they NOW? Approach them after you have considered these things. Truly approach them in a way that is fitting to this moment. You receive what you give. Get out of your head. Get out of your selfishness and neediness. Connect. Deeply connect.
Be an inspired lover. You have the ability to be abundant in this area of life if you are willing. You can experience unity beyond your wildest imagination if you step into your grace. Honor, love and respect your partner as if they are a God or Goddess.
With every touch, kiss, hug, brush of the hair, gaze in the eyes and so on you have the opportunity to fully express universal LOVE. Not lust, your neediness, not your burden, not your baggage, not your victimhood, not your self-serving way of being but your heartfelt love. It is on a cosmic level. If you are connecting purely through the physical you have only reached the elementary level of uniting.
I don’t care if you are man or woman we ALL desire deep connection and authentic initmacy. How do you know when you have BOTH deeply connected? Time has transcended, thought has faded, connection is effortlessly, the eyes become vessels to the soul and bliss has arrived.
If we spent 10 mins a day of deep authentic unattached intimacy with one another the heart would unlock. Every human being needs daily loving touch to thrive. This doesn’t nessessarily mean having sex. If you don’t know how to connect deeply with another soul then you are purely interacting on a superfisical level of fulfilling your 5 senses. It is not on a heart level. It is not sustainable, desireable nor truly fulfilling. Pleasure seekly for your 5 senses only leaves you in a state of constant consuming, seeking, needing, wanting. Do not get confusioned and start thinking rigidly. Fulfilling your 5 senses is beautiful when you are not attached to the desire through your neediness.
Start practicing deep connection on all levels; co-creation, co-existence, etc. Deeply listening, observing, interacting, caring. Take in information, digest it, distribute it, intergrate it and then use it. Be emotionally intelligent. Step into action while being in your wisdom. Be masterful. Be conscious. Go beyond the self. Deeply connect without agenda and see what transpires.

A Goddess Warrior

A Goddess Warrior

A warrior does not function “in” anger and fear with the idea of destroying anything that comes in their way. They work “through” the “anger energy” transmuting it and using that flow positively. A true warrior is wise and looks for peace first. A true warrior finds grace, honor, wisdom, seeing the big picture, is not reactive but responsive, highly intuitive and fierce.

A women who is goddess warrior uses her Shakti power. She represents immense female power, focus and strength. She knows her power and does not need validation or approval. She is deeply Self-respecting, intuitive and represents the end of Self-Denial and Self- Sabotage. She is deeply balanced, courageous and claws through layers to pierce through “stories” and dharma.

I believe when most are saying they are a warrior they not encompassing what I am speaking about. They are functioning in anger, fear, anxiety, suppression of their own intuition, frustration from not standing in their power, etc. This will not lead anyone to victory. It will essentially drain you, age you and fog your clarity.

Learn to embody the true alchemy of what it takes to be a “Goddess Warrior”.

“Chai Wallah Thought” (Disapproval)

Straight from Rishikesh, India.

Chai Wallah Thought of the day:

Disapproval

So many of us share the vision and inspiration to bring peace to this world. We perform many different devotional practices daily to attain and embody this inward peace so it emanates from within us and radiates outward. We devote ourselves to God so we are a mirror reflecting to everyone around us that each one us is a vision of our creator. Triggering the memory within us to remind each other that we all come from the same place, are the same and are a unique expression of the same.
I ask, “Why do we spend so much time in disapproval of one another?”; “Why do we think we know what is best for another soul?”; “Why do we project our fears, insecurities, judgements, ignorance on the other?”; “Why do we not trust each other and create jealousy, anger, resentment, fear and negativity?”; “What would it be like to see each other as God, in our highest self and trust that the other is all knowing?”. I ask but do not wish to linger in the knowing of the how or the why. I wish to absorp myself in the actions, listening, deeply observing another, connecting in depth, having a shared experience, finding compassion, being universally friendly, strength, happiness, being of service without an agenda, honoring another, devoting myself to supreme being and allowing myself to experience what it must be like to be another human being. Wishing for all to go beyond the self and their petty, pathetic needs while learning to deeply honor another human being and always find the love. Truly seeing the expression of God in all and trusting the process of life.

“A Cry for Freedom and a Heart that Swelled” (Installment 3)

Sattva

I was truly enjoying myself and the connections I was making within our “Four Sacred Peaks” group. I felt as though I was on cloud nine. There was stimulating, deep, intelligent conversations happening with and all around me. People were eager, curious, open, happy and excited about our journey into the Himalayas. It was all established in authenticity. Even with our group knowing our adventure and almost every moment was being filmed for a documentary it was still as real as it gets. No one was putting on an act and it felt as though the cameras were not even there. True beauty with true reality.

Our journey into the Himalayas was already forming into one that would be unpredictable. India had experienced one of the biggest monsoon season’s in a long time and Anand was literally remapping our travel upon our arrival. Roads had been washed out and bridges had fallen, etc. Nature always knows best how to organize.

The plan was to be at Sattva for four days practicing yoga, meditating, riding the motorbikes, getting use to the roads/driving, filming, doing last minute things in town (Rishikesh) and becoming more familiar with each other.

I remember being told to film ourselves before we left for India to show a bit of our home life. As much as I have a love for film, transformation and being a part of projects as a vulnerable character, I was a little terrified. With my first video I had already become the chick who was crying about everything, well, mainly leaving my 3 year old son. I was hoping I had left that at home.

Our first night had ended and I found myself alone in my room looking at my iPhone swiping through photo’s of my beloved son. Tears began to roll down my cheeks and my heart began to tug with tiny bits of love pain. I was feeling the separation of mother/son. Being completely honest I will tell you for three years straight I have slept almost every night in the same bed with my son and in the waking state have been by his side every moment since birth. I had not missed one second of his precious young life. The separation was real and deep. I had prepared him for it but I hadn’t realized I wasn’t fully prepared.

I shut my phone off and vowed not to do that to myself again. I wanted to honor myself in the experience I had set out to do which was to connect with me again, not to suffer. No more torture with photos. It was time to be present. No need to be anywhere else. My husband had left me with these last few words, “Completely detach from domestic life. Go have fun. No need to call. We will all be fine and look forward to hearing from you in a month. I love you.” I had total permission from my love, my inner Goddess and the universe. I listened. If there is one thing I have learned from motherhood it is not to waste time. When you have alone time you make the absolute most out it even if it’s five minutes or one month! Moving forward.

I climbed into my king size bed, pulled the covers over me, laid my head down and shut my eyes. I allowed myself to find the joy of sleeping in an empty bed which I had long ago loved in my twenties. I drifted into blackness, silence and experienced restfulness in a way that I hadn’t in years.
