revealing ourselves in the business world hmm

My dad won tickets on The Aware Show on KPFK to attend a 3 day seminar presented by Chris Howard. 

...I'd never heard of him...

The bubble I live in, where I'm surrounded by like minded change makers, was popped again. I forget sometimes that it's not the norm yet. I'm not judging this as good or bad. I'm actually happy for the change in perspective. 

The mix of people there was interesting to say the least. There were so many people there to network and sell themselves. 

...I'm still working on agreements I made with myself a long time ago that make this an uncomfortable situation. I'm still searching for a way for me to put myself out there and not compromise my integrity...or rather to remain authentic in my approach. 

Anyhow, as the seminar rolled along there we were all presented with tons of opportunities to be vulnerable, lay it all on the line, and let go of our baggage. The last school I attended was the same way. They gave us opportunities to really dig into ourselves, and to claim or release things aloud with our peers. I LOVED THIS! And so did most of the people in my program. They were willing to drop their stories, suspend beliefs, and be. So it was interesting for me to be in a situation that was similar where so many people were seemingly unwilling to do the same. It seemed like the people who were open to this process were the minority. 

What I thought was interesting though was the thought I had that perhaps if they weren't there to market themselves...perhaps more people would have opened up. 

Everyone was so busy trying to portray a certain image that, I think, hindered their experience. If one minute you're talking to someone about how you might be able to help them, and the next you're supposed to reveal your hang-ups then...*gasp* they may not want to call you, do business with you, respect you, accept you...they may...or maybe they would see you as brave, a resilient person, honest, authentic even. 

I had an experience there where I had someone who asked about what I do. They seemed interested in learning more and we exchanged business cards. The next exercise they happened to be my partner and I didn't really hold back. It was interesting because I felt a little reluctant once I started feeling judged, but I trudged on. It was more important for me to be authentic about the exercise...it was for me...not them. 

I can see how people who were clinging so tightly to the image of power and composure would have a hard time being so vulnerable. 
...I wish they could have been. I wish they didn't believe so much in a system so broken. So many people are caught up in how the business world is supposed to be, they all feel how abrasive and unreal it is, and yet they continue to play into it. I'm sure I have at points...at least somewhere in my life otherwise how would I see this.

but...I just thought it was interesting...

nature is a seductress...

 i was out in the still darkness of the light rain and thunder
watching the palms blow silently
there's something about watching them and not hearing the rustle
as i stood there letting the soft thunder roll through me and remind me i'm alive
i wondered how long it had been since i connected and enjoyed these moments
and i noticed the feeling to "get back to work"
the thoughts like "you've enjoyed this enough" or "what are you still doing here?" and "you've seen this all before"
i was about to turn and go back inside
but that switch in my body was disturbed
and my body decided to stay while my mind protested the way a child does when they can't have what they want
that moment wasn't as powerful as my mind imagined it should be or had been
but...i know that with time it grows
after i knew i had gone beyond that barrier where i had become accustomed to the bad habit of turning away
i felt satisfied enough to walk inside
but the drops of rain dancing on leaves poked at me over and over
i had to see it again
my mind only half afraid now
said "what if it's not that special" "you know you can't recreate a moment like that" "you have so much to catch up on"
i smiled...
and walked back outside...

Giving back to such an amazing community would give me such joy

YAY! I'm finally in the process of opening my businesses! Wholistic Sentience and Wholistic Synergy...these sister companies will probably meld at some point in the future. These companies are a work in progress and are small now but I can see them expanding rather quickly.

The goals of my companies are to move forward in spreading awareness in all things global and local that affect us, and all things that inspire us and propel us forward on our path. To raise consciousness about sustainability, human rights, animal rights, and spirituality. I want to bring the celebration of life into all aspects of each individual that I work with. I'll be hosting retreats, hopefully inspiring adventure, and supporting people through their health and lifestyle goals. My goal is to facilitate people on their paths of healing in every aspect of what that means: spirituality, physically, emotionally, mentally, with all relationships, awareness, career...overall balance. If we can bring people to a place in their life where they are more fulfilled and aware we will see lasting changes. How can our world move towards real and lasting change if on the microcosm we don't nurture these qualities. My view at this point is that even if we were to make positive changes on a global scale...how long would they last if we didn't have more balance on an individual level?

I'll be posting more detailed information as things develop. I'll be sending out a monthly newsletter which will include articles related to my business of course, but I also see it as an arena for connecting and building community and spreading consciousness. I have been so deeply touched and changed forever by all of the wonderful connections I've made here and on tribe. I want to share events/workshops/articles/projects/music/performances/classes from this amazing community, and post them in my monthly newsletter. It would be my absolute pleasure to share these experiences with the people that I end up working with, and I mean this with all the warmth in my heart. This newsletter is part of my goal to reach more people, to expand awareness, and to contribute to building our global and local community.

I have been touched by so many: Hoopnotica, Katie Kay and mz. Dangerpantz, Michael Divine, Hoopalicious, Goddess Alchemy Project, Fire Groove, Lucent Dossier, FMG, Lightening In a Bottle, troops like Sirena Serpentina, the whole Burning Man community, Sobey and all tribal elven communities up north, more tribal family in the deserts of NM, Rafael, Rayann, and so many beautiful individuals that I couldn't name them all here...I have been so inspired and felt so much love from afar. Now I wish to share your shining beauty with more people.

As I sit reflecting on even the smallest conversations I've had here, and on the profiles alone that have inspired me to move forward and the support I've recieved to continue growing...I feel so much more than the word blessed could ever mean. Thank you all for being lights and I'm telling you now that even if you never felt you were a light or have no idea how you've touched me...that you are and you have indeed, no matter how small our connection.

Please let me know if you have an event coming out you'd like to share, an article which you'd like to reach more eyes to raise awareness about anything, if you'd be interested in writing and occasional article specifically for the newsletter it is MOST welcomed, if you have classes coming up which you need to get the word out for, if your business is fairly new let me help you spread the news, you get the idea...I want to help build lasting transformative connections.

The first few months of building the newsletter will be a bit small, but as it grows I hope that more and more of you allow me to include you in this project.

Lets step forward together in connecting and reaching out to expand awareness. If you have any projects you'd like to team up on, ideas, or suggestions, or would like more details and have questions...please let me know. I'd really like to develop a network of amazing people to refer people to for different services, events, healing...etcetera .

I know we all don't have time to read each other's blogs, so I will be taking the time to contact a lot of you individually : )

I'm really excited about this new venture and I can't wait to hear from you and get this moving. Thanks for taking the time to read such a loooong blog ; )

*radiating light*

manifesting humanity's inherent state of love

exciting unending quests

Posted on Nov 19th, 2006 by Nonamae : resurrector life-force intelligence Nonamae

here I go again...


I've been bitten by the education bug and been seduced by new frontiers of consciousness. I'm hopelessly entranced by the mere thought of attending a school that fits my dreams so well. And yet again I am reminded that dreaming and "hopeless entrancement" can be a good thing. I keep running into these programs of study, things fall into my lap that peak my interest and vroom vroom...I'm off. It's exciting! The rush of discovering a new plane to take myself to, imagining the unimaginable view of looking down from greater heights. This feeling of excitement! Oh god I love it!!! This is what motivates me, what gets me going! I feel it coursing through my veins...literally. The energy flushes through my body, I get high off of it and almost nothing can touch it. I do, however, dread the criticisms of those who don't dream as much anymore, those who say things can't be done. But this!...THIS! This IS it! This life! This dream! The most exciting notions, the delectable curiosity, the relentless interest! THIS IS WHAT IT IS ABOUT!


...find it, that thing...that small almost imperceptible thing, the piece of paper with a note on it that could be so easily passed off...does it interest you in some way? look it up, research it...maybe that piece wasn't it, but from there you find other leads, don't think or obsess about finding it, just keep looking at the things you find interesting...it will come...but you have to let your child like wonder lead you, explore with curiosity what you would think impossible and find where you can start. ...LIVE! you're already alive...so LIVE!


go!
do!
learn!
be!


and for everyone's sake...DREAM dammit!

Sometimes you have to step away for clarity

Posted on Oct 16th, 2006 by Nonamae : resurrector life-force intelligence Nonamae

it's been way too long since i've been consistantly active on here or tribe, with online communities period. but as some of you know i needed to take a much needed semi-sabatical...which i'm not fully out of. however, i'm seeing that my energy is being drawn out more lately...and i seem to be more ok with it. i was having trouble being able to find a balance between social life and the path to really making a difference, and i feel i'm gaining some ground with this.

goals change, plans change, people change...and suprisingly i'm getting better at flowing with it all. so many things have happened in the past 9 months that when i look back i can hardly believe it. growth, no matter how painful, is a beautiful thing. (i just have to remember that in the midst of it eh?) ; ) 

so here i am. still learning, still growing, with a deeper acceptance of knowing it will always be so. i feel so much love as i type now, and a peaceful surreal feeling that feels like an old friend. striving to be more and more my authentic self and shed away these learned layers that keep me from it...while remembering that i too am human. we all work through these things, we are all beings of light, we all have so much to share with one another.

i was just thinking of the other night. i was sitting relaxing and saw myself looking back at a person i knew 5 yrs ago, and she looked at me. for a moment we experienced each others present. i didn't just see, i felt how much i've gone through & grown, i smiled. she looked at this world and smiled. she is happy with her new life. and i thought...yes...my life...my new life...and we merged she and i. and i felt an overwhelming serene ordinariness, and a satisfaction i can't describe.

that gives me (and i guess you now) an idea of where i'm at. things are going, they don't stop, and i wouldn't stop it if i could. it's all perfect as it is. and the times where i am blessed with these glimpses into this reality, to be in this space of consciousness where i am...makes it all worth the while. i see deeper now...and will constantly come to deeper and deeper understandings, with periods of inherent and needed blinding uncounsciousness and lessons. but we all return...and remember...and that's a beautiful thing. i feel blessed for all these things and so much more.

this current that runs through us all is so incomprehensable so unfathomable. what if my soul is just our soul? i can't own this, so it must belong to us. reaching further into our interconectedness, may we all find the core lasting feeling of connectedness.

*sending you all unfathomable love from the depths of the soul*
