Feeling Through Letting Go...to Receive Anew

In the spirit of giving, in order to receive something new, expansive & healing for yourself and the collective…

What is one thing (it may be a big thing!) you can let go of in order to receive anew? How do you let go with intention and make a conscious shift to embody a truer version of yourself?

As you’ve probably heard:

Weeds need to be cut in order for flowers to bloom. 

Your old story no longer aligns with your beliefs/truth.

Your gut instincts “it’s time to let go and move in a different direction.”

How do you let go with intention, consciously making an important shift within? 

Sometimes I sit in easy pose, close my eyes and massage my feet. I connect with the visceral energy through what I stand upon, value, honor, and what I am devoted to. I wait to feel/hear the message of my heart-mind.

THE PRACTICE:

1. Begin with gratitude & acceptance of what is, what you have, where you are presently.

2. Ask yourself, how do I want to feel on a regular basis in my body/mind/spirit?

3. What no longer aligns with feeling this way? (You probably already know what it is, as it would have shown up in relationship to yourself/others this past year.)

4. Feel into the subtleties - this may come through a physical sensation and not an emotion. How does this feel different to an old way of thinking or relating to yourself?

5. Now thank your old joys and haunts for keeping you feeling safe and supported. Thank yourself for the growth & security it offered you.

6. Let it go with the intention of allowing something new which aligns with your purpose & value - that which will bring you more joy for who you are now becoming.

7. Feel into this space of expansion on the horizon, one full of gratitude & abundance.

*It’s not about what it looks like - that you will not know.

The most important thing is stepping into how you want to feel. The more you do this, you will embody your truth, authenticity and all of who you are.

This is EMBODIED PRESENCE.

The Value of Rest: Staying Home & Taking (Self) Care this Winter

The time has changed, winter is coming. We’re heading for darker times, deeper nights and deeper dreams. Just as we’re approaching the holidays, we’re being asked to stay home and stay safe. In many ways, I know you’re feeling tired. I am too. So I’m resting. How will you choose to embrace what lies ahead?

Here are a few ideas to support you in making the best decisions for yourself and your loved ones. 

Listen to the wisdom of your body.  Trust your body knows exactly what it needs.

If you’re tired, rest. 

Healing will take place as you sleep. 

Sleep/rest will boost your immune system. 

Sleep can strengthen your heart.

Rest will support your nervous system / help you stay calm, patient, and positive.

Dreaming will help process all that you’re feeling / going through.

Dreaming can offer you a new perspective / sacred action to take.

What if you’re unable to rest? You feel overwhelmed, anxious, or longing to feel some sort of normalcy by being with your family for the holidays. What if you have to continue working, despite the discomfort? What if your feelings feel like too much to hold right now?

What else can I do?!

Desperate times call for transformative measures! 🙌

What if you took a moment to EMBRACE DISCOMFORT?

As you would for your child, pet, your beloved. What would this look/feel like for you?

 In your gut you know you’re not addressing the deeper sensations within, but the thought of being with the feeling is overwhelming. It’s hard to sit with your sadness/grief, and not know how to fix it.  At times, we’re not even aware of it - grabbing snacks, a drink, vegging out in front of a screen or shopping for things we don’t need. 

*For me, embracing my discomfort looked like laying on the bed in the fetal position, letting my tears fall down my face and a little bit of wailing, all while singing a song.

So what can I do to embrace my discomfort?

Begin by being with all of you and all that you’re feeling.

I assure you, there is comfort on the other side. This simple act of caring for yourself has big rewards. 🧚‍♀️

You're ready to be seen.

Hi Dear Ones,

It has been another tough month, but we’re still here. Today, I feel hopeful. Although, I am listening to the voices of the collective and dreaming images from our collective unconscious. Our hearts are tender. I sense hiding/pushing away any vulnerabilities. This is reflected in the anger, resentment, frustration, rage even, from feeling unheard, unprotected, and helpless. There is anxiety and fear of what the future will hold.

How can an individual hold this alone? You can’t.

There is still so much work to do. There is healing and growth that is needed within ourselves and within our communities. Between the joys or grievances - we are now in a space of “what to do next?” or “the fight is not over”. I believe, the “Other” needs to be heard. There is a divide amongst us. In order to bridge our differences, as in any relationship, we have to work on ourselves first.

How can I hear someone else, if I cannot hear/see my own voices/ego/shadow?

What can I do to listen more and relate to the Other? (I ask this in relation to my inner self as well as external relationships.)

What could be preventing me from hearing the Other and compassionately seeing them?

How can I show up in order to listen more fully, wholeheartedly?

Despite our fears - the action is simple. We embrace what is, through Embodied Presence. This is where you begin - through feeling. First, feel into what the body is holding, move beyond thinking. Slow everything down in order to become aware of the layers upon layers that are may be blocking the deepest, most valuable feelings within. It’s a shedding process. Simple, devoted actions become daily, sacred rituals. This will create long lasting change/transformation.

I offer you a skillset that will last a lifetime.

There are many ways in which you can work with me or begin your journey of self-discovery, change, healing or growth:

I offer individual sessions in Intuitive Growth Coaching.

I facilitate Dream Coaching with groups & communities.

A Deeper Look at My New Course TRANSFORM FEAR & Why It is Important Now

Hello Dear Ones,

Wherever you may be on our planet today, You are on my mind wholeheartedly. We could all use less suffering right now.  What we can use is more joy, hope.  We are all waiting for things to shift / change / transform.

Individually and collectively, this year has proven the most challenging and grievous.  Whether or not you have been fully present or engaged, you know what is happening. 

We see the ways in which we continue moving forward, and ways in which our movement may feel paralyzed.  We are stuck.  We are waiting.  We are fearful.  We are grieving.  And we are continuing to move forward as best as we can.  That’s what we humans do.  We are resilient.  We are stronger than we know.  Yet, we all carry this burden in our own way. 

This is why I developed the online course TRANSFORM FEAR: Learn to Identify Blocks & Break Through Them.  We cannot let fear, whether big or small, keep us from our joy, our hope, our creativity, stability, connecting to one another, community.  Supporting each other through whatever we may be conflicted with is now more important than ever. 

I believe, the only way we are going to transform our physical world, is by starting within. 

This course will provide you with the tools and practices to support your ability to go within, and identify unwanted, conscious and/or unconscious fear, that is preventing you from moving forward.  Through deepening your awareness of a fear or energetic block, you will be able to sense your Way through with life’s challenges. 

You will learn how to observe, hold, express and transform this fear in a way that will offer you a life-long resource, creating a new relationship to it, to yourself and others.  Learning to shift this fear will forever support you in moving through life’s changes / transitions with ease and grace.

Are you ready to break through these blocks which are preventing you from living your life wholeheartedly?   You will be able to tackle any fear from where you’re at.  You will be supported.  Let me share with you what I know, what I live by, what I have learned from my teachers.  These techniques / exercises / rituals have helped me get through this year and a few others before this one.  Over three sessions + a couple bonus practices, let me guide you to dispel and transform your fear. 

Thanks for listening.  Hope to see you on the other side.

Love & Light,

Angela

The Inner Growth Blueprint

So what exactly is the Inner Growth Blueprint ?

The Inner Growth Blueprint is the path to reclaiming your intuition and developing a sacred way of living, bringing you back into your power, wholeness and well-being.  By listening within and honoring your truth, you can sense into what no one else can, making conscious decisions with more clarity, ease and grace, creating a healthy environment for your continuous growth and success.

The Inner Growth Blueprint inspires inner growth through the support of sacred counsel.  As your intuitive support coach, I inspire you to step into the unknown, feel into what you’re facing and guide you to the best plan of action for the situation.  Making choices whether grand or small, we have to make them. 

Inner growth is choosing direction in life, it is (re)defining yourself, your identity, your sense of purpose and it is making challenging decisions.  We have to navigate, negotiate, collaborate, communicate, constantly.  Potentially profound growth can come during the darkest of times.  These are all times when we need to show up and stand in our power of inner knowing, our intuition and instincts.

My experiences have taught me that we can replenish the spirit and restore the feminine but only with the support of our allies.  The Inner Growth Blueprint developed organically through my own search for clarity and spiritual growth and continued to develop as I worked with others struggling through similar circumstances.  This transformative journey began in 2008, when I discovered the power of my dreams and creativity.  I looked to my collaborators and elders, connecting with members of my tribe who took the time to reflect and share in these inner growth processes.  Finding your support team is necessary for times of change, healing and growth.  Your cosmic army will be there when you are ready.

The majority of my life was spent overcoming the chaos and trauma of my childhood, leaving me searching for meaning and traversing radical transitions while healing endless heartaches from loss and break-ups, emotional imbalances, lack of energy, depression, fear and anxiety.  In breaking through unconscious beliefs that I could never be successful or loved by someone good, I cleared obstructions that prevented me from loving myself and others.  I learned how to set boundaries in order to safely express myself and I have grown to believe in my worth and know that my vision and inspiration is valuable. 

Through my years as an artist, creative collaborator, yogi, dream reader and really good friend, my holistic approach to living became all the things which supported me: dialogue & communication, movement & embodiment, yoga & meditation, prayer and ritual, honoring nature, creativity, dream reading, interpreting signs & symbols and sharing resources.  

The intuitive support coaching I offer as part of your counsel is in developing your Blueprint and working with the tools to support you in becoming grounded in your body and daily life, balanced in your emotions, build strength and confidence, navigate transitions, overcome fears, break through unconscious beliefs, hold space to grieve loss, and the action steps to build a foundation within of gratitude, love, joy, and wholeness. 

Namaste,

Angela
