When was the last time someone made you a mixtape?
My soul speaks:
We can’t tolerate dairy or gluten …
We can’t digest food, let alone our thoughts. Let alone the reality of life.
We can’t tolerate true depth in community or family or partnership. We don’t romance ourselves or each other anymore.
No poetry read aloud by candlelight at night.
No long form writing.
We sit and scroll through memes or horror stories about the world - or memes about the horrors of the world - and we wonder why we can’t move, why we are stuck, why we’re unhappy.
We don’t learn how to play instruments or even how to fix the engine or change the oil in our cars.
Think about how romantic it is when someone says they can change your oil in your car for you, because they love you!
Forget about someone writing a song for you. Or making a mixtape, even.
We aren’t balanced.
We are so caught up in the grind and the news that we’ve forgotten about our own inner wellness. Our community wellness. The people who live within a 20 mile radius.
Do you know the hopes and dreams and fears of the people who live around you? Because all of that affects you, too.
Imagine just spending two hours making a playlist for your best friend, just for the hell of it. Then another 45 minutes playing it for them out loud, while you sit and look at each other lovingly, or dance with each other feverishly.
Imagine writing (with a pencil) a short story for your lover, about how much their qualities remind you of the rivers, the trees, the stars, ancient ruins, words in other languages that have no English equivalent.
Imagine brushing your daughter’s hair for 30 minutes while you sing prayers of protection, love, and peace into each hair follicle.
We ARE stuck.
We are all stuck in a collective amnesia about what it means to be a human connected to Truth and Beauty.
Let’s remember together..
2 hours to unspin, sink in, journey, heal, laugh and cry together and really see each other in all the ways we have come undone… and cheer each other on in all the ways we are taking steps to remember, remember, create, remember, evolve.
Let’s go, together.
The recording will be available for you to watch for 72 hours after it's uploaded, if you can't make it live, ALTHOUGH I HIGHLY RECOMMEND GIFTING YOURSELF THE MAGIC OF COMING LIVE.
There's so much magic in journeying in a group together, like this :)
Plus we'll have some group therapy/coaching mixed in, too, so if you want to bring something forward to work on together, a problem or a specific area you feel stuck in, please do!
Looking forward to seeing you there, my love.
