Day 3 👊🏽💦

I have to shout these guys out cos this is way bet

There’s a chapter in my book about my experience

There’s a chapter in my book about my experiences when I was first getting into spirituality and wellness and I’m absolutely pissing myself at the fucking situations I put myself in when I was younger.
I sit down to write thinking I have nothing much to put on the page and then all these memories come flooding back and I have to whittle them down. The amount of time and money I have spent on useless teachers and wild ideas that some person has just dreamt up somewhere is mad.
Spirituality in the West really is a minefield. Where we lack tradition we also lack the elders hitting us with a stick telling us to stop being so ridiculous.
Which is why so much of Western New Age spirituality is exactly that - ridiculous.
A few people messaged me telling me to be more open minded over the last week during light-language-gate. The thing is, I was really open minded a few years ago - it led me into a paranoid bout of psychosis. The thing with open mindedness is that it still needs structure and boundaries. To just open your mind to believe that anything and everything is possible is potentially far more harmful than being close minded because there is no concept of where reality stops and delusion begins.
You need some kind of psychological safeguard somewhere because our minds can literally dream up anything. If your core belief is that anything and everything is real, and you have nobody in a position of trust - either literally, or inside your psyche symbolically telling you to stop - then the fragile threads that keep our psyches together easily start to fray.
It is true that there is far more to the world than Western culture believes, but there are still limits of possibility that should be observed - especially personal ones such as:
“Wow I can work with energy, but maybe that doesn’t also mean I am capable of communicating directly with alien races”  “I did plant medicine and I felt the presence of a spirit, but this doesn’t mean I am the chosen one to heal all trauma”  Expansion of our minds, like breathing - needs to come with a healthy contraction where we come back to earth.
Out and in. Not just out - you’ll suffocate that way.

The best and most effective wisdom to apply to you

The best and most effective wisdom to apply to your life is the most simple. In our culture though, simple is rarely good enough. We need to know more.
We need the :
How?
Why?
When?
Are you sure?
My sessions are split up into two halves. There is the consultation/chat - which is just two humans having it out. Putting it all on the table so we can use our overdeveloped minds to track patterns and make sense of the jumbled nature of the psyche. This is fun. It’s like detective work. I ask question after question after question and we bounce theories and ideas off of each other until we come to some kind of peace. It’s nice - and furiously intellectual work. Oh we feel like Jung and Freud, Ghandi and Jesus all rolled into one. We get charged up as we find truths within truths, or at least we think we do. Perspective is everything. If it makes sense, it makes sense. Ego’s fluffed, and Western minds thoroughly exercised and reclining with cigars by the pool - the energy in the room shifts as clarity arrives.
Then there is the ritual. This is the shamanic part - the exotic part that people get all shy for. But when the ritual is over and the client awaits the “news” - it is so often, almost humorously, simple.
“You know that thing you’re worried about - let it go”
“You know that thing you do - yeah… don’t”
“Um… You’re gonna be fine.. but don’t do this”
“I knew that already”
“Why haven’t you done it then?”
Back to the :
How?
Why?
When?
Are you sure?
These four questions get us into so much trouble. Sometimes we just need to move forward without the one true answer that makes it all makes sense.
In my experience - this answer comes far into the future. When the dust is settled and we have proven to ourselves that we trusted life and that little voice inside of us that was connected to spirit all along.
