A shadow is a lie, a lie is a PLAY

A shadow is a lie, a lie is a PLAY
——————————–

A shadow is a lie we forgot that we told.
A story-based lie that occurs for 2 hours on a stage is called a PLAY.

And a screenplay is meant to become a movie.
A PLAYwrite creates PLAYS.

Storytelling is lying intentionally.
Because it’s FUN.

At first it as an innocent, perhaps even playful experiment in wearing different masks. No more complex than peek-a-boo.

But then it kept going and going and going and our short term memory lost sight of where it began. So we innocently forgot we were lying.

Just how some of us (speaking from personal experience) can get caught up in the illusory tech world. It is a VIRTUAL reality. There is real reality and there is virtual. Virtual reality is an INTENTIONAL lie. Just like a movie is not real life, it is (ideally) an innocent artistic movement, purely creative. Lies are creative. Lies are not inherently evil. Playing in the distortions are what life is all about.
But the real chaos and havoc comes when we are just living in never-never-land 24/7 a have completely forgot about and fell asleep to the REAL world.

For over over 10 years I have been triggering myself on purpose.
A trigger is an 0rg@sm that we are unwilling to feel.

Anger is important trigger for me.
For sadness repressors, it’s sadness.
One of the most important realizations for me has been that COMEDY is the biggest trigger of them all because it feels the SAFEST.
People are still going to be repressing their primary emotions but if they can learn to have a sense of humor about it, they become MUCH safer to experience.

Kiloby coined the “reverse inquiry” approach which intentionally gets the subconscious mind to argue with you. This can be used properly with the emotion being processed fully (getting to a greater system regulation) or it can be used to traumatize oneself further if approached from a place of masochism.

Learning to triggering oneself is DEEPLY liberating because then we can better See our PROJECTIONS – mental interpretations of the outside world, which seemed totally real but were actually based on our fears [of] being triggered.

WE are AFRAID of being triggered because we feel GUILTY and for many of us, we deeply believe we have to face the wrath of H3LL if we are bad.

So we never actually take the time to discover the INNOCENT place from which we originally intentionally lied to ourselves.

The repressed emotion we are forgot how to play AS and are now terrified OF, is an experience we are longing no matter how much shame and guilt tries to convince us it’s wrong and evil.

We were PRETENDING it was evil.
It was a PLAY.

As real as it may seem now, we need to PLAY our way back into realizing it again.
Genuine facilitation is in PLAY because it is from a place of deeper system regulation, alignment, and homeostasis.

That seems paradoxical to the mind which is what makes so difficult to describe the benefits of deeply challenging ourselves. It is NOT masochistic self-punishment disguised as “personal development”.

It is a measurable and mechanical process of remember our True Will and building the strength of its influence.

We are now in the 7th Iteration of Hollywood

Announcing the new name for this blog! Hollywood 7.0.

In the future you can come straight here by going to www.hollywoodseven.com

According to my calculations…

Hollywood has completed six major iterations and is now on the 7th “version”.
I don’t pretend to know the complete history of Hollywood in detail.
My job is to play a role in re-creating it.

Here are the first 6 completed stages as I define them:

1. Silent Film Era (1890s-1920s): Movies were entirely silent, with actors’ gestures and expressions conveying the story. Accompanied by live music, often an organ or piano.

2. Golden Age of Hollywood (1930s-1940s): The rise of major film studios and the birth of the iconic star system. Introduction of sound and color, leading to classics like “Gone with the Wind” and “Casablanca.”

3. Post-War Decline (1950s): Television became a household staple, hitting cinema attendance. Hollywood countered with widescreen formats and spectacle films like “Ben-Hur.”

4. New Hollywood (1960s-1970s): The collapse of the studio system. Directors like Scorsese, Coppola, and Spielberg brought more freedom and innovative storytelling. Films tackled mature and controversial themes.

5. Blockbuster Era (1980s-1990s): High-concept films and franchises became prominent. Spielberg’s “Jaws” and Lucas’s “Star Wars” set the stage for massive box-office successes. Special effects became pivotal.

6. Digital Revolution (2000s): The transition from film to digital. Revolutionary advancements in CGI and VFX, leading to visually stunning films like “Avatar.” Streaming services started their rise.

So then, what’s next?
Hollywood 7.0

(And as of this moment, that is the new name of the Storyweaving blog here too!)

Here are some predictions about what this new iteration of Hollywood will consist of…

Hollywood 7: The Immersive Entertainment Era

Overview
The Immersive Entertainment Era represents a paradigm shift in how stories are told and experienced, with a particular emphasis on adaptive content that creates custom experiences for each viewer. Traditional boundaries between various media forms blur, creating a more interactive, personalized, and dynamic entertainment landscape.

1. Most Importantly: BETTER STORIES
– **Storyweaving** Strategy: This website (and YouTube videos, books, podcast, etc) is all about creating stories which are truly transformational in nature. Audiences have HAD IT with bland, soulless, uninspired, rehashings of things that have “worked before”.
– Writers must truly emotionally engage in their process and give up simply being “clever”. It is time for an emotional intelligence revolution in Hollywood.

2. AI-Driven Personalization and Adaptive Content (Our Original Terminology )
– **Dynamic Storytelling**: AI algorithms adjust storylines, pacing, and even outcomes in real-time based on viewer preferences, emotional responses, and viewing history.
– **Personalized Character Development**: Characters evolve differently for each viewer, emphasizing traits or backstories that resonate most with the individual.
– **Adaptive Visuals and Soundscapes**: Visual styles, color palettes, and musical scores adjust to match viewer preferences and enhance emotional engagement.
– **Contextual Adaptation**: Content adapts based on viewing context (time of day, location, device) and viewer’s current mood or stress levels.
– **Custom Boundaries**: Implementations include options for viewers to set boundaries on how much adaptation occurs, preserving artistic integrity while allowing personalization.

3. Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) Integration
– **Immersive Storytelling**: Full-length VR movies become mainstream, allowing viewers to experience stories from within.
– **Interactive Narratives**: Viewers can influence storylines, with adaptive systems guiding the experience based on individual interactions.
– **AR Enhanced Reality**: Real-world environments are augmented with personalized digital elements, creating unique hybrid viewing experiences for each user.

4. Multiplatform Storytelling
– **Transmedia Narratives**: Stories unfold across multiple platforms (films, games, social media) simultaneously, with adaptive systems ensuring coherent yet personalized experiences across all mediums.
– **Interactive Streaming**: Streaming platforms offer branching narratives and real-time interaction, with AI managing the complexity of countless potential story variations.
– **Social Viewing Experiences**: Virtual watch parties where each viewer sees a personalized version of the content, with shared elements for discussion.

5. Biotechnology Integration
– **Mood-Responsive Content**: Biofeedback devices adjust content based on viewers’ emotional states, creating a dynamic feedback loop between viewer and content.
– **Sensory Enhancement**: Technologies stimulating smell, touch, and taste complement visual and auditory experiences, adapting to individual sensory preferences and thresholds.
– **Neural Interfaces**: Early-stage direct brain-computer interfaces allow for deeper personalization based on subconscious preferences and responses.

6. More Sustainable Production
– **Virtual Production**: Advanced virtual sets reduce the need for physical locations and travel, with adaptive systems generating personalized environments on-the-fly.
– **AI-Optimized Workflows**: Increased efficiency in production and post-production processes, allowing for the creation of vast libraries of adaptive content elements.
– AI Actors: CGI characters with AI become common, adapting their performances to individual viewers while adhering to predefined ethical guidelines.

7. Globalized Content Creation
– **AI Translation and Cultural Adaptation**: Real-time, culturally nuanced translation and adaptation make content instantly global and personally relevant.
– **Glocalized Productions**: Stories are easily adapted for different cultural contexts, with AI managing nuanced cultural variations for each viewer.
– **Decentralized Studios**: Blockchain and virtual production allow for more decentralized, global collaborations, enabling diverse creators to contribute to adaptive content libraries.

8. New Economic Models
– **Microtransactions**: Pay-per-scene or pay-per-choice models for interactive content, with pricing adapting to individual viewing habits and preferences.
– **NFT Integration**: Unique digital assets and experiences sold as NFTs, with the possibility of personalized NFTs generated by adaptive content systems.
– **Creator Economy**: Direct fan funding and participation in production decisions, with adaptive systems managing complex webs of viewer preferences and creator visions.

9. Challenges and Considerations
– **Digital Divide**: Ensuring access to high-tech, adaptive entertainment across socioeconomic groups.
– **Privacy Concerns**: Balancing deep personalization with data protection and viewer autonomy.
– **Artistic Integrity**: Maintaining core artistic vision while allowing for extensive personalization and adaptation.
– **Regulatory Hurdles**: Adapting laws and regulations to new forms of adaptive content, especially regarding data usage and content responsibility.
– **Mental Health**: Addressing potential issues with hyper-immersive and highly personalized experiences, including addiction and reality distortion.
– **Filter Bubbles**: Ensuring that adaptive content doesn’t limit viewers’ exposure to diverse perspectives and challenging content.

10. Potential Landmark Productions
– First Oscar-winning fully adaptive VR film with millions of unique viewer experiences
– AI-human collaborative blockbuster series that evolves based on global viewer interactions
– Globally simultaneous, culturally adaptive release with personalized storylines for each major market
– First mainstream neural interface entertainment experience offering “dream-like” adaptive narratives

This era promises to redefine the boundaries of entertainment, merging technology and storytelling in unprecedented ways. The challenge for Hollywood will be to embrace these innovations while preserving the core essence of compelling narrative and human connection, all while navigating the complex landscape of personalized, adaptive content.

 

 

An Argument for More Effective Storytelling

The Global Influence of American Cinema:
An Argument for More Effective Storytelling
The film industry around the world is influenced by one country more than any other place because the birth of cinema is the United States of America. Hollywood is the capital of the film industry as an undisputed fact. And America of course places its spin on things, as an Enneagram 3 country it is obsessed with image and achievement.
Another fact that is interesting is that the film industry is perhaps more inconsistent and therefore remains more undiscovered than any other industry. Airplanes, for example, are quite reliable. They have a necessarily strict track record because there are lives on the line. The more that is at stake, the more all industries take their precautions seriously.
The film industry is the modern equivalent of the stories around the campfire industry, which of course has been around since the dawn of humanity. Storytelling is unique to the human species. This is a massive evolutionary benefit because we can convey experiences in more than just one note. While animals can convey the resulting energy of their experiences (in their excited behaviors) there is a nuance that only exists within storytelling which only humans take advantage of.
This is our superpower, and yet in storytelling school, we are kindergarteners because the real purpose of storytelling is only rarely used. And it’s rare that an effectively life-changing movie ever comes out. If the airplane industry had those stats, it would be unacceptable. This suggests that the answer might be in making the film industry internationally recognized as having stakes as great or greater than life or death industries.
This industry should be taken as seriously as anything else we use for our evolution. The popularity of cinema should be evidence that we are literally worshipping stories because of course it’s not the story that is needed but it is the alchemy that happens inside of the audience which humans are actually longing for.
This alchemy happens within the realm of our feelings. This is the realm in which the deepest truths can be realized. When we recognize the vast difference between feelings and emotions it becomes more apparent that simply feeling strong emotions is not a useful goal to have in storytelling. If it doesn’t increase their level of self-awareness, it’s wasting their time.
The whole point of storytelling, including the light-hearted and comedic, is to make it so that people are genuinely more free and more wise than they were before they came in. Oftentimes, the price of freedom is at the cost of our comfort. Horror movies and the like take advantage of this and create traumas in the name of getting out of our comfort zones. It takes the ability to See what is actually going to benefit people to get this equation right.
When freedom is not the goal, what is the goal? And then that raises the question – “Why did I have any goal other than freedom?” And “Was that goal actually my own idea, or was that planted in me and forced upon me?” And, “Did I actually give consent to adopt a secret predatorial fixation?” Usually, the answer is yes, storytellers gave their consent to being taken over by self-serving forces in the name of survival. At a very young age.
Becoming aware of our own inner predator trains us to stalk our inner parasite. Otherwise, the parasite uses the evasive maneuvers of the predator and we remain blind to our survival fixation. If a storyteller is satisfied just to “make people feel something” (namely an emotion) perhaps they can find their own parasitic vampirism in this approach? Perhaps they can attune to how they are being siphoned by a thought-form. Maybe they can see that they are defending an inner war and a worthless idea in order to keep their pride intact. It is far more inconvenient to acknowledge than just keeping the show going and carrying on with “how things are done”.
This self-denial is rampant, especially in the storytelling industry. The parasite specifically identifies fame as being a place of safety. The industry is so “exclusive” to participate in, and it has a lasting impact and a legacy on so many millions of people. This makes people feel important to work in the film industry. And so the film industry is a natural magnet for self-importance.
Self-importance is caused by self-pity and self-pity is creating massive distortions in the rationality of our entire society. We are actually worshipping rationality. Meanwhile, rationality is a completely fluctuating universe. It simply demonstrates the belief system of its user. If one person looks through blue glasses and they see a blue world and they say I see a blue world, they’re not wrong. And if another person looks through red glasses and sees a red world and says I live in a red world they’re also not wrong. So they have differences because they have different perspectives but the actual reality is so all-encompassing that it’s not anywhere close to either of these apparent two options.
So now we’re at a crossroads where we can either aim our storytelling to trigger emotions and trap people in their pre-existing biases, or we can aim to place people in touch with their true feelings. Our answer reveals what we are driven by. If we are driven by our emotions, we are covertly wanting to keep validating emotions.
This attachment is actually the cause of our suffering, it is not the emotions themselves.
By default, people experience their emotions through the prison of self-pity. Feeling our emotions can be useful and healing, but it’s not useful without proper guidance. This can be easy to misunderstand. Passivity keeps us trapped, while genuinely surrendering our attachments is an engaging and participatory activity. It is giving our identity over to the unimaginable – the unknowable. It is an energetic movement, not just an idea.
As storytellers, it is our responsibility to create the best possible product we can by completely extricating our own parasite from all stories we venture to tell. This is how we embody the impeccability of a true storyteller.
The world awaits American cinema’s greatest act.

Viewing Our Options

We always have more options than we realize.

We cannot see our options as they truly exist because our energy is stuck in fight or flight, and so and we habitually disregard our emotional experience as a means for survival.

“Play” is options consciousness.

By relaxing the nervous system we can come out of codependent behaviors and this allows for aligned creative solutions to strike us.

Don’t believe everything you think

From a wounded perspective, shadowed power can appear to be light and true light can appear as shadowed power.

This is a great time to discover our true motives for emulating others, for attempting to attain really anything at all.

Diving into truth reveals our backward thinking, our unnecessary protective habits, searching for whatever feels like home.

Our true motives very often are caused by wanting to be seen in a certain way, especially by ourselves. This is what it looks like when shame is driving.

If we can become safe in being humiliated in front of ourselves, nothing can harm us and we move toward returning to the zero point of self-image.

A True sense of Safety has absolutely nothing to do with circumstances and everything to do with trusting in our own competency, resilience, and significance.

Seeing ourselves as totally capable is the best decision we can ever make, and this individuation process is often ignored in all of the fancy spiritual discussions.

Structure is necessary for wildness to truly be trustworthy, as you alluded toward. A baby is wild and innocent but that doesn’t make their decisions trustworthy because they lack structure.

This is where the boundaries discussion comes in, as (healthy) leadership tends to demonstrate what strong boundaries look and feel like.

Those who set the container need not be the strongest or wisest, but hierarchy is necessary in order to simply organize what being on the “same page” consists of.

Encouraging the wildness is also why I enjoy being available for all personal questions.

THE BACKWARD FEMININE

While Male bodied wounding most often craves (feels safest) to be mothered, most female-bodied wounding most often craves to be FATHERED.

We generally desire to embody what we perceive to be lacking. Fear and Desire both arise out of wounding, and so we are attracted to what we fear.

More specifically, we are attracted to what we fear (and desire) BECOMING.

In looking through the lens of the dating world:

Just as cats hunt playfully, Women are more suited to choose Men and not vice versa.

Swarming like bees for pollen, Hunting as a form of Play. This illustrates the immense need to eliminate competition between women.

Men’s forays into hunting are strategic. It is not open-ended. It is targeted. This orientation is dangerous and tempts men into using and objectifying women.

It is natural for the woman to approach the man. A man in his truth is focused on his mission, not on women.

A man who is looking for a date is indulging in his addiction. He does not believe he is capable of embodying what she embodies.

Healthy men say NO to sexual encounters much more often than they say yes. This simultaneously provides feminine wounding the fathering experience they crave.

Female lions hunt for the pack because lions do not have the embedded PRIDE wounding urging them achieving a certain status based on their kill.

In fact, WOMEN are readily designed for decision making in the workforce as they excel in matters of community and finance. They are innately designed to collaborate and SHARE authentically, whereas men are innately less in need of community…which ironically when a man is experienced as a ‘safe’ person tends to experience community forming around them.

The common feminine stereotype of ‘Airy Fairyness’ is a result of the Feminine wounding craving becoming the Masculine because the True masculine is information which is of the air.

The ultimate symbol of masculinity is the Sun, while “Mother Earth” is, of course, the feminine.

The Kundalini rising (from the earth) brings the feminine (inner child) into the brain (the Sun of the Body) – which represents the inner parent.

Many times people have Kundalini awakenings prematurely, which means that their inner parent is not sufficiently developed and does not know how to handle the wildness of the inner child (integrated knowledge of boundaries).

Women do NOT need to learn how to surrender to men. Prioritizing that is literally INSANE.

Women need to learn how to trust their OWN will, to trust THEMSELVES. In doing so, they can then discern who is truly safe and who isn’t.

Then, they can spot a man in his addiction and will KNOW that surrendering to him would be irresponsible to themselves. In having that awareness and self-trust, surrendering to a safe and integrated man becomes automatic and does NOT need to be learned or practiced.

Average Women report a significantly higher amount of exercise and quality of life than men. Women report exercising for weight loss and toning more than men, whereas men report exercising for enjoyment more than women.

This is why we see almost all WOMEN in yoga classes, while men are out playing baseball, tracking sports stats (or their own sex stats), trying to lift a certain amount of weight, simply for the metric of achievement. Men are measuring their progress because subconsciously they hope that they can one day become as powerful as WOMEN.

This is also the cause of witch hunts: For centuries men have pulled every card to demonize and disgrace expressions of femininity.

Because they both fear and desire it.

Women are much more commonly found singing and dancing because they are generally more compassionate toward the subtle energetic needs of their bodies (the Earth). Women are much more likely to have eating disorders because they oscillate between fear and desire with food. Which is closeness with the Earth.

Men are more often aimed at PUSHING to achieve an external goal in order to symbolically change the public perception of themselves, motivated to make an impact (like the sun makes an impact). Making an impact then gives them ‘permission’ to change their perception of themselves.

When men ‘bulk up’ to appear a certain way, they are manipulating perspective to demonstrate the impact they can potentially make. Specifically, because they do not have the subtle energetic tools which women have, to make an INTERNAL impact, and thus they believe they need a woman to accomplish this.

Men are generally addictively on the hunt for measurable glory, which they will later convert to positive feelings. Hunting for the Truth CAN be a healthy addiction when it is NOT connected to self-worth (when the larger part of the self-image is purified and restored to innocence). Male lions defend their territory because they are designed to protect their right to exist (information), NOT because they feel pride, and NOT because they fear shame.

Women are addictively on the hunt specifically and DIRECTLY by following the subtle energetics of the qualitative Truth, and generally NOT for the purpose of accumulating information. This CAN be a healthy addiction when understood as curation without attachment. This is why it is often said that “God is a Woman”, or that women are closer to the imprint of the Truth. Because Men’s natural addiction is one step removed from completely valuing this direct experience.

The Feminine innately embodies ACTUAL power, and thus the wounded feminine perceives KNOWLEDGE as power (scarcity perspective). They have forgotten that POWER is KNOWLEDGE, and they already HAVE IT.

Most everybody has this very backward.

The wounded masculine represents disembodied INFORMATION which desires to merge with the feminine by BECOMING power (and therefore desires to become a symbol of power). The wounded masculine cannot comprehend the true merging with their own INTERNAL feminine.

Well, that was fun! This was a very complex paradigm to unwind, so some small errors are possible and I reserve the right to modify as needed. Your processing helps my processing. Happy to answer any questions.

Thank you for reading. May this information bring you deeper self-trust, sovereignty, joy, and ease in your mission here on earth.

Feel free to share.

YOUR BODY: A PRECIOUS CHILD

We must learn to befriend our body. To build rapport. Our Body is also known as Our Inner Child.
 
We are being asked to create an unmistakably nurturing relationship.
 
Perhaps even designate a secret tender name, such as “precious” or “my love”.
 
The more you familiarize yourself with this relationship and take every possible opportunity to validate and adore the body, the less the body will resist receiving love.
 
Normalize adoration.
 
The body may ache or feel agitated. “What do you need precious? How can I support you, my love?”
 
This differentiation between the parent and child is essential. “Oneness” may be the ultimate result, but it really is not a useful goal as we do this intimate work.
 
Our self-image equates to our relationship with Truth. If one is distorted, both are distorted.
 
Taking ownership of our self-image means taking ownership of our role as a facilitator for our body’s experience.
 
This adoration experience is that of the divine mother. This is essential if we are to feel safe in anchoring the divine father.
 
The divine father is the aspect of ourselves that guides us and pushes us out of our comfort zones. This energy encourages us to stay consistent and reliable.
 
While the divine mother in a seemingly conflicting perspective tells us it’s okay to change our mind, and it’s okay to make mistakes.
 
Both of these voices come from the same source. Both are crucial to our thriving. Both are necessary for our ongoing expansion.
 
However, the voice of the divine father is automatic when the divine mother aspect is truly anchored.
 
The safer we feel, the bolder we become.
 
The divine father energy is a result of the natural expression of mother’s love integrated into our precious body.
 
We have exited the hustle and push by our distorted minds, and arriving in a place where we can surrender to that which naturally desires to place new feelers out into the world.
 
And this creates an upward cycle of growth: Tender Love –> Feeling safe –> Bold Passion –> Risky Decisions –> Self Gratitude for taking a risk –> Back to Tender Love
 
Board this train, you have a lifetime pass ❤️

TRUSTING THE PROCESS = GIVING UP ON PHILOSOPHY

There are lots of amazing awakened beings out there. But many don’t know how to teach. To communicate effectively. They say beautiful and very true statements, but the vibration is placed so far out of reach that it triggers more confusion.

And so their students and clients stay in a neverending rat race.

This is why old school channels are still in business doing exactly the same thing after so many years with little to no evolution in presentation. Because very few people can successfully implement it.

It’s certainly not intentional in most cases. And unfortunately, being awakened is not sufficient credibility anymore.

This work requires maturity, patience, skill, listening, adjustment, and humility above all else.

The biggest gift a teacher can give themselves is ensuring that their communications provide effective changes for those who show up to receive.

The biggest gift a teacher can give themselves is showing up so effectively that they make their teachings obsolete and are forced to evolve into whatever is needed next.

Please don’t try to decipher philosophy that doesn’t have any foundation in actual trauma-informed human psychology. Philosophy (in my view) is a waste of time. The real work rings profoundly true and hits you like a brick wall. Stops you in your tracks and drops your jaw.

Yes, this work can at times be easy and graceful, and simultaneously it must assist us in approaching the most uncomfortable parts of the psyche or nothing will shift. That’s exactly what gives personal development a bad name in the mainstream.

I am challenging myself to go deeper and get more raw than ever before this year, knowing that my own ongoing evolution is absolutely connected to the evolution of the incredible people I assist.

I have given my life away to this. Not as martyrdom but because I trust the process.

I am yours. And therefore I can take ownership of navigating humanity, thus empowering others to do the same.

In absolute service to this family of us. Blessings 

Joshua

TRIGGERS: THE PATH TO INDIVIDUATION

People speak about Triggers as if they are problems.

This is exactly the backward perspective in our culture.

This perspective is based on shame.

“This person is never triggered, so they’re cool. This person is triggered all the time, so they are annoying.

Let’s be the “Good” person, who never gets triggered! Yay!”

This is entirely driven by unhealthy self-images that are motivated to HIDE the Truth. To HIDE from the real issue.

I had a client recently who said: “I hope you don’t get triggered when I work with you, I tend to trigger a lot of the healers who have tried to help me.”

This may be completely True! And it’s only remarkable because those healers were afraid of their triggers.

My response “Actually, I’m planning on getting Triggered. That’s the medicine. That’s the doorway into the Quantum Field. If you don’t trigger me I’ll trigger myself!”

So, what’s on the other side of the fear of triggers?

Glory. Power. Truth. Clarity. Ease. Individuation.

A trigger is simply an activation of trauma. Trauma contains a HUGE amount of unprocessed energy. That energy could be from personal experience or it could be collective wounding.
This unprocessed energy contains TIME. We step out of TIME, when we step INTO a trigger. This is the liminal space, the quantum field, the awakened dream, the causal body, the core creator body. Whatever terminology is used, that’s where it’s hidden.

By embracing and moving into this experience, by clearly recognizing triggers as doorways and opportunities, we shed the SHAME with which they are typically associated. If you need an enemy, let it be the shame instead of the powerful expression.

People often imagine there is a ‘Right” thing to say. This is a blockage on our True expression. The “Right” thing is simply expressing the energy the nervous system is holding. It’s not a specific sentence, it’s a sentiment. It doesn’t even need to be heard by other people, it only needs to be heard by the individual whose system contains the trauma.

The uncomfortable truth MUST come out if we are to scrub our systems of distortion. To come back into alignment with our soul.

The MORE uncomfortable it is, the MORE power it contains. Power lives in pain. The pressure which creates pain is Power, which can be rerouted into our chosen focus. It’s uncomfortable because we are accustomed to disowning our power. We have been trained to be rule followers. We have been trained to avoid intimidating people. We have been trained to prefer weakness over being perceived as a threat. We have been trained to believe we are NOT innocent, to believe we are NOT angels, to believe we are NOT trustworthy with power.

This conditioning has prevented us from individuation from our parents and from the collective. The more deeply we see and VALUE our infinitely UNIQUE experience, the more we recognize our INDIVIDUAL gifts, the more we recognize that everybody’s gifts are entirely unique and that there is actually no competition. Living in a culture of deep permission is actually NOT dangerous. Living a life of deep permission is literally how we have been designed.

As we individuate, the clarity of our desires becomes louder than the collective noise which has previously been drowning us out. It takes focus and practice to amplify and act upon the true direction of our soul. Moving our focus into that stream opens up an infinitely expansive flow of power, which we can continue to exponentially increase by seeking and destroying all blockages with vigilance and precision. This decisive attunement further builds our self-trust and empowers us to assist others in the process as well.

Thanks for reading, happy to answer any questions. Feel free to share.
