The following “rules” are based on 13 years of trying, failing, trust falling, researching, studying, pilgrimage-ing, teaching, guiding, loving, learning, and deeply listening to the voice of the heart.
Life is now.
Life is happening now. Future fantasies are welcome to feed your inner fire and fuel your actions, just make sure they don’t paralyze you in a dissociated damsel daydream.
You are fully alive, right here, right now. Don’t wait to start living. Don’t wait for permission—not from the stars, the cards, or the big bad wolf in your mind.
Live now.
Be your own center of gravity.
Regularly ask yourself, where is my center of gravity right now?
There’s something seductive about placing your center of gravity outside yourself. You may feel like a hero. You may feel like a holy martyr.
But without being rooted in your own gravity, life always feels a little off. Love feels a little out of reach. Your hungry ghosts eat first, leaving you living off breadcrumbs and last drops.
Being your own gravity isn’t about ego games, or parodies of confidence. It’s a way of life where your heart becomes your safe haven, where you are your own anchor no matter what’s thrown your way.
Cherish the inbetweens.
Inbetweens are sacred. They’re where all magic lies.
You may have been taught to rush through the inbetweens, set the next goal, catch the next high. You may find that in your inbetween state you freeze, forgetting the sun always rises again. You may feel impatient with life, wanting to tell the story, the happy ending, more than you want to live the journey.
The inbetween is part of the dance. An exhale always comes before an inhale, and comes after again. When you fall into trusting the rhythm of life-death-life1, you squeeze the sweetness out of every moment. And you become free.
Find the medicine.
Different times call for different medicines. Know what your medicine is now, and know when to put it down in service of something new.
The medicine of play, the medicine of commitment, the medicine of plants, the medicine of sobriety—they each have their time and purpose.
Dancing is required.
Self explanatory.
Your participation is required.
Life is made up of choices. You can’t sit this one out.
From the soul’s perspective, choices aren’t about choosing right or choosing wrong. Choice is just choice.
You can keep choosing your pattern, but do it on purpose, to see what you learn.
