We are renewable resources, Let’s make medicine out of the mire.

Be a Lighthouse

“Love is the highest art. In ancient times you trained hard, not for the sake of killing, but for the love of family:
for the love of your mother, your father, your children, your tribe, and your body. It is the love of life. That is why 
we train hard, so you can preserve life.”
~ Dan Inosanto

May we all do the world work of PRESERVING LIFE. Train…
We are at the starting line of beginning to get a glimmer of the psychological & social impact corona is having on us. Don’t forget that movement is the enemy of fear, de-crystalize your fascia, practice all your liberation arts, take a breath, aim your arrows, hack the mainframe of your subconscious, be a HOPEAHOLIC, understand impermanence, cultivate joy, work on your subtleties, occupy transparency, and be the North Star. You cannot worry & meditate at once, keep putting your foot in the door of practice, we need everyone to be awake now, to preserve life.

Arrow Forms at the Edge

Mother Earth, and her people, are experiencing the birth contractions of a new WE. A new story is emerging, and I urge us to tune into the ways in which we are already in deep rapport with ourselves, with our families, with nature, with our planet, and then take it deeper, wider, higher, brighter… so the layers between who we have been and what we are meant to be, can dissolve, fade away, & compost, as needed, so kindness can ripple through our lucid bodies, and we can very seriously commit to living in a way that keeps life turned on. No doubt this shadow is defining the edge of a light that is asking to be let in. Do your rituals, love each other, be nice, have the ability to respond, galvanize your grace. There are fears that keep us from living and fears that keep us alive, this life is our masterpiece, may we trust in what it takes to make it beautiful again, to leap across this chasm of anguish, & land with sure-footedness on shores of awe.

The above set of forms, assists the practitioner with Kidney Chi. When we elevate, purify, and harmonize the Kidney Chi, we immediately give ourselves back an immense amount of energy. Practice this set, to attain, and sustain a pristine caliber of clarity and doubtless awareness in these challenging times.

inside of the inside

Our world is ordered by how we think and how we move. Practice is a grand process of taking down the shield. As one area surrenders, into trust and wholeness, then Another area will take courage and release into an alphabet of movements that help us decipher who we really are. the conventional idea of the body is rather static, while the notion of a body engaged in resonance, at local & non-local levels, infers that we are a varietal organism. Actively seek out ways of remembering this, of trusting the rhythm of your breath, of hollowing out the bones, of feeling in between the lines, of embodying the inner existential urges, of falling in love with the movements inside the movements, allβ€” so to understand the unity beneath the enormity of it all. The collapse and Rearrangement continuum, in the chrysalis of the belly, is evidence of a universal process, that is expanding you, from the inside out, give creativity permission to have its play. Practice is a quantum remapping of experience and perception inside the body. Your body… which is a renewable resource, which belongs to eternity.

Practice the above set, to assist in finding freedom and flow in the deep tissues of your body, and to have a mental outlook of inclusivity, and acceptance, for times of triumph & tribulation.

Mandala Forms for a Vibrant & Resilient Vagus Nerve.Β 

This set of forms, functions like windshield wipers for your electromagnetic field. Each of us have 3 addresses, our bodies, our minds, and our electromagnetic field, and we have to live in these three places, our entire life, so some regular hygienic practices, for cleaning and clearing, are optimal for joyful, effective living. Practice this set to decongest the energy around you, to think from your individual higher mind, and to gaze through your wide angle lens, wether you are tuning in at a deep intuitive level, taking bold action on you path, or interested in generating a cascade of optimism & ingenuity. It is most remarkable, how effective this flow is for creating deep harmonization in your molecular body, in your glandular secretions, and in your current cocktail of neurochemistry.

Sandhill Crane sadhana

 

I followed the deer 🦌 tracks out to a sweet spot they clearly resonate with. there was the perfect gently breeze to activate the wind singers, to change the quality and consistency of the spinal serum, to amp up the horse 🐎 power of the parasympathetic nervous system, and to conjure up the lost language of human wings in this refreshing micro practice.

Here on the Isthmus, where I live, the cranes have recently returned for the season. When they fly over, the primal sound of their song, interrupts any thought or action, I might be engaged in – calling my attention & awareness, to awaken. Realize you needn’t have a set of wind singers to effectively practice this form, give it a whirl, and experience an immediate upgrade in your circuitry.

Windhorse Breathing

If you ride the breath & keep it under control then all wantings stop being dangerous. Being skilled with that bridle is a righteous blessing.Β 

This is a quintessential practice form, I reach into, when I need to empty out and know vastness to be my guide. I go to Windhorse breathing, when I need to reset, slow down, and remember that there is nothing to grasp, nothing to attain, and nothing to loose. This form is a true antidote for many kinds of otherness. Every time you bring the hands back to center, in front of the chest, you can feel a resonance that is both giving and forgiving, a frequency that says “face & embrace” so the pulleys and couter-weights of this polarity planet can be played precisely, so we, as practitioners, are well positioned to ride the chariots of our minds, into a calm heart, & hear the music in all things.

Joy Body

93 PERCENT STARTDUST
……………….
Plucking stars form: 
at the Observatory.
……………….
We have calcium in our bones,
Iron in our veins,
Carbon in our souls
and Nitrogen in our brains.
93% stardust with souls made of flames. 
We are all just stars that have people names.

Natural Movement

A numb or rigid body cannot heal or recognize love.

The above form is a simple drill for centering all the aspects of self. I enjoy doing what I call a Mono-Practice, with this form. Stay inside the space of these few movements, for anywhere between 3-60 minutes, taking it deeper, into more subtle, sophisticated, sublime territory, each time. At the end of the practice session, you will be so intimate with its nuances, and it will have undeniably set itself up in your bones. it is said that it takes 100 times to remember a form, 1000 times to make it beautiful, and 10,000 times to grasp its essence. Practice teaches me the art & strategy of staying the course, so the mystery that resides, in the movement within the movement, can begin to reveal itself to me.

DEVOTED TO DIRECT EXPERIENCE

A fusion of gentleness & power.

Receptive… to the eye of the heart,

where life-force rushes in,

as way-maker, as way-shower…

easing life, opening life.

Feeding every feeling flourishing within.

Nourishing an aliveness, in roots and blossoms,

so I can engage in this passionate life,

free from separation.
