The Quiet Beneath the Noise

“I have arrived, I am home.”

~~ Thich Nhat Hanh

Greetings to all my precious people!!

We have cleared physical space. We have released ancestral patterns.

Now we arrive at the most persistent layer of homecoming: the mental clutter.

The planning. The strategizing. The constant need to figure it out, know what’s next, have all the answers. The 3am thought loops. The voice that says you’re not doing enough, being enough, achieving enough.

The noise.

We live in a culture designed to keep you mentally occupied. Distracted. Scrolling. Consuming information. Comparing. Planning. Optimizing.

But your soul is trying to speak. And it can’t be heard over the noise.

This week, as we approach Thanksgiving in the US – a time traditionally about gratitude and gathering – I want to invite you into something countercultural:

The practice of sacred not-knowing. Of creating mental space. Of coming home to the quiet.

What You Inherited – And What You Are Ready to Release

“Until you make the unconscious conscious,

it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”

~~ Carl Jung

Greetings to all my precious people!!

Last week, we began the work of homecoming by clearing physical space – honoring the body as the sacred vessel we arrived on the earth with.

Many of you wrote to share what you cleared and what you noticed. The common thread? When external space cleared, emotions started moving.

 

Grief. Anger. Relief.

Sadness for what was lost. Gratitude for what remains.

 

This is not an accident.
