Anchoring The Light In Times Of Intensity {a 9-Part Series for Changemakers}

At the beginning of March, I wrote what became a series of articles, videos and podcast recordings to help support both myself and my community through what felt like extraordinarily intense times. I now call this work a Series On Anchoring The Light In Times Of Intensity, and I’m linking all of these resources for you here.

It is my personal belief that we’ll be seeing many ‘times of intensity’ in these next few years, and as Visionaries, Changemakers, Light Leaders, we’ll feel called to anchor the light more strongly than ever before – which will require us to hold exquisite space for both our own process & that of the communities we’re anchoring into. Anchoring the Light is both an esoteric and active feet on the ground thing – so these resources will support you in defining a clear vision and practice around both.

I hope that these resources can help spark new insights for you. Most of all, I hope they can support you as you navigate the paradox: of being a human in this current time of upheaval and intense change – with all the feelings, all the steep learning and growth that asks of us individually and as a collective (>>> meaning we need to hold exquisite space for our own process). And of being a human deeply devoted to contributing to actual, meaningful change (>>> meaning we need to work from a crystal-clear vision for the change we wish to see).

Thank you for doing the work needed to continue showing up for your vision. Because we need your voice to help shape the conversation, the dialogue, the Thinking Exercise & the Exploration that is right now, as we speak, collectively giving form to a new world.

01. The Art Of Holding Ourselves

How do we hold space for ourselves as coaches, healers, mentors and guides? We ourselves are always still growing, still learning, still coming up against our own fears and triggers. With the drastic lifechanges from covid, many of us got triggered into deep uncertainty, and grief. With everything else going on in the world – like racism, mysogny, ableism, the very things we are working towards changing – we can also experience days where it all becomes too much and we feel the grief, anxiety, overwhelm.

We are highly devoted to providing our clients with potent transformations, and part of that, requires us to master the essential Skill of Holding Ourselves. Read more >>>

02. 7 Practices For Transmuting Your Grief

Our culture has forgotten how to grieve. Join me as I walk you through 7 practices for transmuting grief. There is so much grief currently working itself through our systems, and there will be more in the years to come as we move into true transformation of our societies and cultures. These practices will help you move through it and release into a space of grounded tranquility (a requirement for being able to actively work towards empowered change). It’s totally normal to feel, and to feel deeply – and, we have to relearn how to move through the emotions in a potent and compassionate way, so we can keep showing up for ourselves, the people around us, and our calling.

I also discussed this more deeply in this episode of The Sovereign Sessions Podcast: 001 – THE SOVEREIGN SESSIONS: THE PARADOX OF THESE TIMES: In this episode of The Sovereign Sessions, we explore The Paradox of these times, and its 2 main components.
