Let’s start using the word in its deeper context instead of the unexamined way it gets tossed around.

“Matrix” comes from the Latin mater — mother. The direct root is matrix, meaning “womb” or “breeding animal,” which itself derives from mater!

“womb” (the place where something is generated or takes shape)

This is all so interesting to me and I love that this came up today.

Let me know when you watch the Matrix through this lens- see what else pops up.

My perspective is shifting and I’m finding myself pausing a lil on creating content when this happens.

However that’s part of this amazing path. I enjoy sharing and distilling my understanding through speaking, writing and creation, so here I am.

It’s so helpful actually.

I’m practicing contemplation more as I prep to spend a lot of time in contemplation in about 6 weeks for the Fall consciousness retreat I’m signed up for.

This is the most important work and I’m grateful for the opportunity to explore consciousness freely.

The rich neighborhood insight made something pretty obvious: Wealth is entirely relative to the observer.

Same house, same street, same luxury cars- completely different meaning depending on who’s looking.

So if something as concrete and measurable, as money is actually just relative depending on who’s looking— what about something far more elusive like sanity?

Even if we look at a psychiatrist from 100 years ago versus a psychiatrist today, and if we could fast forward 100 years and compare that to a psychiatrist in the future, it is all drastically different.

That’s relative sanity, which can be useful I suppose but what is absolute sanity —something that isn’t relative to time, current culture or perspective?

What’s the sanity that’s always true no matter what era we’re living in and beyond the current norm perspective?

Will the real sanity please stand up? All the others are just imitating.

Most manifestation stuff is giving: pop spirituality,

but I feel like this was a good reminder of segment intending and how practical it is for navigating everyday life with increased awareness/ less burnout.

The whole presentation was very awareness forward.

There is a lightness and playfulness in truth that seems aligned either this type of strategy. Like a game.

Its easy to be completely unconscious in how you approach segments life, so even just having the intention to be PRESENT would be a game changer in most instances.

I’m feeling this!

Isn’t it cool how hearing a familiar phrase in a different context gives it a different vibe?

Identity work is less work once you reach the realization that…

self-concept is a construction. A house of cards.

Even the phrase “self-concept” is revealing — there’s a self, and then there’s a concept of self. Two different things.

The true nature of self isn’t any of the concepts or adjectives we attach to it — even the ones we’re most sure are true.

Being present doesn’t come with any concepts. Being in the Now is super bare. That’s what makes it liberating- absence of concepts!

Which is probably why meditation, silence, and any practice that brings focus to the pure present are so soul quenching.

What fascinates me most is how easily this goes unnoticed — how much identity work happens without anyone naming that the “self” being worked on was never very solid to begin with.

There’s a version of sanity — one’s grip on reality, ability to function in daily life— which I know is how we generally use this word “sanity”.

But that’s not exactly what I’m exploring here although it is connected.

When I look at what the word actually means, I feel sanity is pointing toward something more like wholeness. And if that’s true — then maybe understanding what sanity really is could be its own kind of immunity against losing it.

That’s the question I’m sitting with.

This is valuable —just seeing the root of the word. A piece of the puzzle. The exploration continues.

Side note — self-inquiry seems to quiet it too, which is strange, because self-inquiry is about the self. But it doesn’t add more self-referential noise — it turns and looks directly at the one doing the referencing.

That’s a different move than rumination. It feels less like silence and more like the curtain pulling back.

Mysterious, deep, a little like that space after a consciousness expanding experience.

Has science identified the ego… the DMN? The default Mode Network??

Certainly sounds like it to me.

Good news— we can quiet the noise and live with greater mental freedom. 💃🏾

Review the practices, and put 1-2 of these practices to the test and even when they seem like “they’re not working” keep going anyways. That’s just the DMN doing its job.

Another sanity discovery popped up whilst reading my functional movement book by Gary Cook.

It’s so good and foundational & basic. I love stuff like this.

I love how life is always sending you ways too deepen and see what you’re looking for in a different light.

It’s just so cool -like life is just so freaking cool.

Welcome to Sanity Sundays.

Excited to see where this goes.

Over dinner this weekend, I told a friend about a consciousness retreat I’m attending in October, led by a teacher trained by Peter Ralston.

She asked what I’d be doing there. I said self-inquiry, meditation, discussion. She asked what self-inquiry was. Ooh I thought this would be a great video!

So here’s the video.

Self-inquiry is a practice for knowing the true nature of who you actually are. You sit with questions like who am I or what am I — with real intention, without dodging. Not answering fast. Just staying with it.

Try it: set a timer for 15 minutes. Pick one question. Sit with just that one question — you can move to a different question another day or another week.

What comes up first is usually your name or a story. But that’s not it who you really are.

Karla is a name. A sound your mouth makes. So then — who’s here, underneath that?

This is what real spirituality actually is. Not belief. Not aesthetics. Getting more honest and more connected to what’s actually true about you.

Spirituality without this kind of inquiry isn’t really spirituality.

I do this practice while driving, or whenever I notice I’m caught in a thought loop. It’s one of the most useful & liberating tools I have.

“The truth of who you are, if realized, will set you free.”
-Ekhart Tolle

That line triggered my first real awakening experience, about 15 years ago. I didn’t fully understand it then.

I just could see for the first time that I was creating my own suffering and it blew my mind. I couldn’t see why yet but that moment cracked something open. I’ve been going deeper ever since.
