Our cry for belonging
Only answered by the offer of a prison world of fixed images

Our cries for help
Only reveal you do not have the answers

Never did

Now

These waves we are
bursting through
damns of limitation

It’s clear
The only path we will walk now
Pure love

Episode 172 What's common is not necessarily "normal" (a reprise episode with Dr. Brianne Grogan)

As my summer hiatus continues, I am bringing forward past episodes that present themselves for another listen. This one came through a number of synchronicities. As I explained in the new introduction, I found great value in re-listening to this one and was able to deepen into the message Dr. Brianne Grogan shared.

The original episode was titled; The Practical Magic of the Pelvic Floor with Dr. Brianne Grogan

The episode was not just about pelvic health, it was about how we can open our consciousness to include more of what we choose for our own bodies and our own health.

My powerful guest was Dr. Brianne Grogan who brings forward a treasure trove of wisdom for best practices for vital health and a life well lived—therefore, practical magic.

There were TOO many gems to mention here, so…

Episode 171 Choosing is your superpower, a reminder episode

This is in part a repeat episode from September 2021 (episode 139). The theme is our power to choose. It’s coming around again! It is ever more important to deepen into your knowing of what is true, because saying no can be a yes to more of you.

At the end of the episode I shared a short tree meditation to help you discern through metaphor the truth of you and how to use visualization to move beyond the lower frequencies that are external to you.

Episode 171 Choosing is your superpower, a reminder episode

This is in part a repeat episode from September 2021 (episode 139). The theme is our power to choose. It’s coming around again! It is ever more important to deepen into your knowing of what is true, because saying no can be a yes to more of you.

The original episode was inspired by you, the listeners, who call forward what wants to be heard, and by an instagram post on neutrality. The post came from Dr. Lori Earley and she said in her account medicine, "Neutrality is not an option."

What are we choosing in this moment, at this pivotal time on the planet? When chaos and polarities are amplified, we can retreat from that cacophony because we do not want to be pulled in directions that would seem to pull us apart. We still FEEL it because we are part of the collective.

How can we discern what is right for us in this moment? How do we navigate the external? We choose.

We don't have to choose a side, but we are being called to choose who we are. To stand in our pure love presence. To say no to what we need to say no to, to say yes to what we need to say yes to—because to not choose is to give our tacit or implied consent to whatever, or whoever, has the loudest voice.

At the end of the episode I shared a short tree meditation to help you discern through metaphor the truth of you and how to use visualization to move beyond the lower frequencies that are external to you.

Nope

Done pretending
you’re not poison

Done trying to fit in
pretending lies haven’t been woven into everything we see

If you’re looking for me
I’ll be over here with the others
learning, maybe stumbling at times

Focusing on the truth of what this world can be
creating anew

Cosmic Weaver

Beloved,
your birthright is akin to a cosmic weaver
You are here, now,
to choose the beauty you read into each moment

The threads,
your words,
your actions
Notice then,
when you are weave in patterns not truly yours,
but those springing from distortions that have been

You beloved,
have a gift,
the ability to discern what beauty is yours
to read back into your own heart

Those golden threads of pure love dissolve knots,
mending all frayed pieces in the tapestry of your life

Because nothing can hold back this brilliance ready to flow from your fibres

Allow this gift that you are to weave light back into the whole
Revitalizing this Earth

It is so

Witnessing our Light

Show me who you are
and I will celebrate that beauty with you

Show me how you are here expressing
Show me the beauty of your authentic voice witnessed
I long to hear it, as much as I long to hear my own

Show me who you are
and my ears will drink in that beauty in you

As I open to see the beauty in myself
and allow myself to be witnessed in all the ways I move in this world
I can see more of the dance of love expressing and moving through you

Show me who you are
and we will dance barefoot on the Earth with joy

I will give you all the space you need to show me who you are
I will witness your grace as you show me that note being sung through you to all of creation
Those notes we sing together with our love as we bring medicine to this Earth

Show me who you are
and we will sing with that beauty in us

Episode 170 May Your True Nature continue to grow deeper roots

This is a reprise of episode 154 recorded in May of 2022, and an invitation to revisit both the episode and your own growth over the last year.

I recorded a new introduction, and just like I did, it’s a call to observe where you can expand and deepen into more of who you are as we continue to create, and grow on the Earth in these powerful times.

Episode 170 May Your True Nature continue to grow deeper roots

This is a reprise of episode 154 recorded in May of 2022, and an invitation to revisit both the episode and your own growth over the last year.
I recorded a new introduction, and just like I did, it’s a call to observe where you can expand and deepen into more of who you are as we continue to create, and grow on the Earth in these powerful times.

(from the original episode) This month is another powerful one and it is more and more noticeable that things are changing and need to change in our world. There is a deep knowing of this in our own bodies, and yet, many of us are also experiencing a recurrence of things that feel like old patterns. It’s confusing. We know we are becoming more, and we are also experiencing physical ailments, heightened emotions and loss of a sense of “reality.”

How do we practically step into becoming more of the complete self? How can we allow ourselves to be remade into our true selves? Who are we without these looping patterns? Host Christine shares some practical ideas to move through these endings so we can step more fully into ourselves.

I am here to celebrate this Earth

To absorb the song of life moving through each moment

As the birds sing their bright morning greetings to the rising sun and a light breeze stirs my hair

Breath celebrates

To fill with the sweetness of life as abundant be-moreings weaving into my day

Like the joyful assurance of a bumblebee loaded with pollen moving from brilliant flower to flower

Heart celebrates

The natural interconnection of organic living beings in the flow of their wisdom

All the tall trees modelling this —our mutual original essence — as they follow their rhythm of blooming, growing, sheltering and connecting

Such is the beauty we celebrate

Through interactions large and small we feel the depth and breadth of our own capacity for pure love, and brilliant presence reflecting back to us

So it is

Divine Feminine Creatrix Story

Mysteries and joys and stories you have yet to dance are here within you

Your Body Temple’s knowing is vaster than any ocean, and yet dear sister, you have chosen to dip just your tiny perfect toe in those flowing waters

Know, entering the cave of your own deep wisdom is your mastery to choose

That birthright, which you have been told is outside of you, is simply yours to claim

Everything is within you
Beloved sister

Open to the fullness of you

Open to the vast ocean that is you

Choose, not to limit yourself by what you have been told by others,

by the distorted mirrors, the projected images that were never you,

by false stories of what is ready to drop from this reality

Choose your untamed nature, choose your unlimited self

Choose, dear sister, choose to embody your joy,
your grace, your ease, your wisdom, your beauty, the magic of your power to imagine

The soup that holds all the knowing of this beautiful world is yours to drink, you have only to serve yourself a bowl from the Temple inside your Heart

A blanket of light woven from all the stars in all the galaxies is yours also, you have only to choose to weave the Cosmic Mother’s whispers into your dreamtime story

And, dear sister, the portals of your strong feet, your lower mouth are yours to be in union and communion with your Divine Mother, the Earth as you both choose to vibrate with greater and greater pure love

Choose, dear sister, to … be the embodiment of your own Temple

Choose to;
Dance into the light of you
Dive into the ocean of you
Sing the stories of you

Be in LOVE with YOU

So be it,
SO IT IS

We Are Here Now

It cannot be contained,
scripted,
or prescribed

This vastness we are,
sung through a human body

Simply our birthright to choose,
a stepping away from what we are not,
onto the golden road that lights up every cell

And we begin to hummm the song of light,
weaving it’s notes of pure love,
into our daily living,
into this world

Pure sound and light echoing back into the cosmos,
returning as
gently falling frequencies,
quenching thirst of our willing hearts

So it is
So we are

Episode 169 Curiosity begets self mastery

This episode was inspired by a well known aphorism, curiosity killed the cat, and is an exploration into how, why, and where our natural curiosity may have been suppressed. What does curiosity really mean and why would we damn up the river of information that flows to us and through us? Why would we choose to block that which helps us navigate the truth of our divinity?

Curiosity begets self mastery, because, we are the catalysts for our own change and evolution.

We have lived consciously and unconsciously in the “do as you are told” pattern and program. We have been encouraged to use the external/validated information even when it doesn’t feel right to us. Now is the time for us to move more strongly and powerfully into a “do as you KNOW” frequency.

Your natural curiosity helps you access your inner wisdom which flows abundantly from your own pure heart. When we honour our natural curiosity, we evolve from being the supplicants - forever looking outside of ourselves for answers - to the creators of our own reality and this world we are here for now.

Time to call back in your curiosity and weave the golden threads shining through the muck back into your life. So it is.

What Belongs in Your Life

We
Each of us

Have played the game
Whose rules are mostly hidden

Suppressing the live current running through us
To be like the herd

We
Were told

Fit in
Go with this flow

But it’s one that dammed up our hearts’ rivers

Now
Growth will not allow this
Our true nature emerges as effortlessly as leaves answer the call of spring rain

We transmute
the suppression

Transforming it to growth

We
Remember

Activating this current
to meet the ocean of ourselves

Drawn by an ever more irresistible flowering

We are leaving behind what was

Stepping back into the vastness of ourselves

Because to do otherwise really does go against the flow of truth in our being

Brilliant
Vast
Infinite
Love

Episode 168 is up now

This episode is a reflection on what we are stepping away from in this moment on the planet. How it is that we can surrender into the beauty beyond the beauty we thought we knew.

The first question that arises within our human self is how to move this through your body and into your life in a way that integrates into your everyday existence. It takes courage to see the wonder of ourselves because it means that so much of who we thought we were, including the “good” parts of ourselves, needs to go. The blinders need to come off or we cannot hope to see our own brilliance.

The invitation is to notice where the resistance in you is -- turning to meet that part and go beyond what you thought was the best of you. Sacred self care is opening to find more of ourselves. We’re not fixing, because in this moment we are becoming the creator self by leaving behind the limiting beliefs and practices and images we have held onto. We are in the process of freeing ourselves.

We are stepping into more of our true brilliance, partnering with the Earth, and then with others. We are the song that is being sung. We are the flowers that continue to bloom and we cannot be stopped. Our bodies already recognize and respond to the beauty beyond the beauty we thought we knew. It is so.

As I wake I ask my heart

Show me the beauty beyond the beauty I thought I knew

Let me step beyond fields of possibility I thought were mine

Let me have the courage to leave behind what I thought was true

Let me shed like tattered rags the beliefs and images I have worn in unknowing

So that my brilliance is all clothing that I need

Our Paths

Dear sister,

Where once we were in step,
our paths have now diverged on this journey home

You gone off to remember the cosmos inside your heart, and I to explore mine

It’s not goodbye

We know our bonds of love ensure we will intersect from time to time

Then, we shall weave back through the forest

Linking arms,
drinking in the beauty of the other

Hearing stories of tea with Alcyone, the colours in your dragon’s wings, and how the car didn’t start Tuesday

Letting go again after some moments,
as we continue to dance more fully into ourselves

Such is the wonder of this connection,
inside the infinity of our loving human hearts

Episode 165, Dissolving the Walls Within and Between Us

This episode is a deepening of an exploration of the walls between us that I did in episode 127. It’s an invitation to notice where and how you have been creating metaphorical and real walls within yourself—to notice where you have been following paths and practices that are not truly who you are NOW.

We’ve been in warrior mode for some time now and it’s time to relearn and remember from where that polarity sprung—and to turn those warrior tools into the precision instruments they have been waiting to transform into.

You choose.

You are a sovereign love song sung to all of creation able to dissolve the walls that were erected on the vast fields of who we truly are.

By dissolving the polarity within us and between us we are tuning into our song sung together as one voice in alignment with Earth.
This image of ONE voice is a call for all of us to dissolve the walls within ourselves and between our fellow divine humans. Connecting back to ourselves as free, sovereign beings of love. Connecting back to the purity and innocence of your original, organic self to come back into harmony with ourselves first—then singing this song of love as our infinite expression.

✨Here’s to those who have chosen the deep dive in this moment.

Who know in each now moment the infinity of us is possible.

Who choose to expand into — to infuse pure love into every aspect of this human journey which is part of our divine expression.

Who regularly can and do choose more of whatever they need to purify what is not their true expression.

To fill every cell and the world around us with real love.

We chose this peace, this freedom, this beauty)—for our Home.

NEW EPISODE
164 Being Full of Yourself Even More in 2023

The first episode of 2023 was inspired by the phrase full of yourself and as we move into the new year—it is an invitation to deepen into the question, “If you’re not full of yourself, who else and what else are you full of?”

How much of your true self you are full of and where can you find more you?

A beautiful way to find more you is to close your eyes and come into the silence of your source. Breathe. Get out of your head and into your heart space. Then say out loud, allowing your true self to fill in the blanks; My name is____, and I am full of myself. When I am full of myself I Am____

May we all continue to fill with more of our true divine presence in 2023. Much love, Christine

Happy new year.

I posted this image some time ago. This morning the gentle power it reflects wanted to say ... Our beautiful embodiment of pure love is not just a side hustle. It’s a choice we can make in each moment to fully embody this truth of ourselves as pure love. When we do this we become an epicentre of this cosmic shift that is elevating ourselves and our planet even if we don’t yet recognize it. In this so called year of 2023 — why not reveal even more of who we are to the world in all the myriad of ways that you can.



Much love 🙏🏼💕

Those of us who put their hands up for the experience of life on this earth now are all in.

We’re not here for a kind of superficial or numbed out life that’s been presented.

We’re here both feet in -standing strong.

That strength is activated in the sweet territory of silence—a space of self witnessing where you remember and embody who you are.
