Round Table

  • So I just figured out “how come” I’m so in sync right now. It’s do to my planning for sure…among other things. However the planning has put a lot of things where they need to be. And b/c my mind is not occupied thinking of those things, I can use it for manifesting, alignment and creation. I’m on fire right now (not literally) and so enjoying…[Read more]

    • Glad to hear you’re only metaphorically on fire. That’s the best kind of fire to be on 😉 Looking forward to being on that kind of fire myself, in one way or another, long as it’s in sync with source (that is a great name btw)

      • Isn’t that name awesome. I keep writing it in my journal, wrote it on my board, and repeating it to myself throughout the day. I’m TOTALLY in sync with source and able to create my heart’s desire because of it!

  • How did you prepare for the healing journey (if at all)?

    • Hmm. I don’t remember preparing in any particular way, other than always having a burning desire to know more and learn…which led me to be open to new information, like healing and recovery and personal development…

      • After I graduated from college it was my goal to then finally take charge of my health and healing, so I did have a plan to address the issues, although healing hasn’t been anything like I expected it to be.

    • Not sure I did. I’ve tried various healing modalities, extremely sporadically mind you, since I’ve been 16 so it’s been something I’ve been exposed to for a large part of my existence. Any preparation there’s been has just sort of happened… it’s an interesting question. Kind of curious to know what you mean by it though. Just cause it…[Read more]

      • I find it an interesting question too. It seems that something must be prepared within in order to actually do it. Like when is the tipping point, when’s the choice point or when is the decision made to heal and what lead up to that decision. Maybe motivation is a better way to put this question. I’m always really fascinated by “preparation” since…[Read more]

        • In that sense, the tipping point for me was every area of my life felt out of control…to the point that I was having recurring dreams where I was always crashing into something or in a vehicle with no brakes. I was having physical health consequences from drinking and waking up with crushing anxiety and depression. I just couldn’t live like…[Read more]

    • For me, I’ve always felt like I needed to be healed, like there was something inherently wrong with me. And to some extent or another, I’d been searching all my life for something that was missing. More recently, it was my responsibility as a father that was the motivation for my healing but that alone wasn’t enough. It was a series of events,…[Read more]

    • I think for me it has been pain. Befriending pain and being vulnerable with the not knowing what was going to come forth. I know I said “there must be something more”. I love learning that anxiety is part of the change process. It requires me to be vulnerability in the uncertainty and not knowing, but wow, have the surprises come my way. When I f…[Read more]

  • So I had the awareness yesterday that I can’t do everything in 2019, lol. I’ve been planning to the moon and have some pretty big expressions happening in 2019 so I’m holding off on the RLL revamp until 2020. It will give me time to land on a name that feels super in alignment while coming up with a year long structure to the lab that will look a…[Read more]

  • Couple of Sagittarius birthdays: Wes earlier this month and Karen today!
    Happy birthday!

  • How’s the week going?

    • It’s full of surprises.

    • It’s going okay. I had a couple of triggering moments that I am working through. Decided to stay home last night with my husband and dog, doing what feels the most in alignment with what I want to do, instead of giving in to the pressure to be out celebrating my birthday the way everyone else thinks I should celebrate. Giving myself space to p…[Read more]

      • You do you boo! Happy to hear your husband being so supportive and you doing what makes you feel best. Can’t go wrong with listening to yourself.

    • So I’ve been planning to the moon, listening to tons of Abraham Hicks and so many opportunities are coming my way. Signed up 2 new clients for the year, both Recovery Life Coaching Clients. A former client reached out and said she wants to coach again since we had such success last time. A connection call yesterday turned potential new client for…[Read more]

  • I just wanted to say that I had a breakthrough around understanding that I am a spiritual being having a human experience. I know that and wanted to believe it, but haven’t really “felt” it. Then I saw this Instagram post and all of a sudden it hit me differently, way differently. And I want to share it with you all, because you all deserve to…[Read more]

  • Thank you all for your shares on the last call. Wow! It was wonderful. Here are my thoughts from the call:

    Bev, I love what you said at the beginning about choosing to love ourselves and not go down the rabbit hole of judgment, shame, and unworthiness. YES! That’s how I felt at my interview. One of the people interviewing me was someone who…[Read more]

  • Helpful audio to listen to in the mornings: https://youtu.be/7RF9JQpZ4lI

  • I had a job interview this morning. It’s for a teacher assistant position at our high school. I feel like it went well. I haven’t been on a job interview in 14 years, so it was great to put myself out there again. I maintained my confidence throughout the interview. It felt at times like they were testing me a bit to see if I would lose a bit…[Read more]

  • How are you connecting to Source each day?

    • Honestly, I don’t feel like I connect to Source every day, and I can feel the difference when I have been disconnected. I connect to Source the most when I am outside, but also when I read something that helps me connect to myself, when I spend time with my dog, when I listen to a meditation or sit still for a few minutes in silence, and lately…[Read more]

    • I connect through dreams, life experiences, words, music, art expression, silence, nature, human encounters, conflict, holy wrestling, kindness and vulnerability.

    • Stillness, nature, repeat… 🙂

    • Breath, silence, alone time, reading, writing, dreams and synchronicities, movement, and music

    • Connecting to Source is also connecting with me. I am expression of Source so Source comes through me. Source expresses through me and connects with other people so that Source can reach more and more people with love, grace and joy.

  • Tami, I have to mention this because it seems too synchronistic that you mentioned Hagar on the call. I know nothing of the scriptures and yet 15 hours before I watched the replay today, assuming it’s the same Hagar, I had been reading about her story for the first time in a book called Sacred Contracts. It’s actually the point in the book that…[Read more]

    • Thanks for connecting, Wes. It is the same Hagar that you speak of.

      My introduction to Patriarchy is a definition from Miki Hashtan who oversees the Bay Area Non Violent Communication Group. She says the following…

      “The underlying principle of patriarchy, as I understand it, is separation and control. The separation is from self, other,…[Read more]

      • I don’t know everyone’s story in this group but I do know that there has been a lot of reconnection to truth and addictions are being overcome. That makes my heart very happy.

        • Wow Tami, thank you. I just Googled and read that article and man, is she speaking to the truth of what holds me back and down in life. And she just beautifully and compassionately breaks it all down. Made me think of the Dalai Lama quote “the world will be saved by the western women “. Not just her specifically but all women doing their work…[Read more]

          • Beautiful process and support here. I really resonated with patriarchy not being about “man” or “men.” What a great way to detach.

          • Wes, Glad this brought awareness and a new knowing. May you step into your greatness in a greater measure this year.

  • Tami Coil posted an update 6 years, 4 months ago

    To sum up the call for me.

    In 2018, I am leaving the one who was isolated and out of sync.
    In 2019, I am welcoming embodiment, empowerment and Drinking from my own well that is filled by the Divine.

  • What’s something you are letting go of as you step into the new year? What’s important about that for you?

    • I mentioned this on the call. I had a dream about a person in the Bible who was thrown outside of camp. This was interesting to me since I have left the religious structure that I grew up in. I am learning to trust that my dreams may have something to say to me that I might not verbalize . I thought at first this was a punishment to me. But what…[Read more]

    • The past two New Years Eves I’ve pulled out a journal and markers and written/drew what I want to let go of on one page and what I want to bring in on another page. It’s just something that has helped me get through the holiday sober. Looking back it’s amazing to me that I truly have let go of some of the things I wrote down and drawn in others.…[Read more]

      • So glad to witness your journey. I love that you do that on New Year’s Eve. Wondering if it feels so honoring to listen to what has transpired and what wants to come forth. ….I am glad to be here to compassionately witness your process. You have already cracked the shell open and birthed a new sober self. Letting go and welcoming in the new. May…[Read more]

      • Wonderful, Jane. Just beautiful.

    • The need for acceptance. The need for people to think highly of me or to always see me in a positive light. I am at peace with my flaws.

  • Thank you to Misty, Tami and Crystal who came to our call today. We discussed the person we’ve been in 2018 while learning the acronym: FAST (Feel it, Acknowledge it, Shift it and Thank it). https://s3.amazonaws.com/recoverylifemanagement/RLLDecember118.mp4

  • Tami Coil posted an update 6 years, 4 months ago

    I really enjoyed the call today. Will journal on the experience and post later. In the meantime, I wanted to share this quote by Annette Messager.

    Being an Artist means forever healing your own wounds and at the same time endlessly exposing them. Speaks to the gift of recovery that we each are doing and how we keep getting “Realer”. I am sure…[Read more]

    • Well put! I enjoyed becoming still and acknowledging and honoring the person I’ve been in 2018. I’ve opened myself up to the experience of FAITH and now it’s coming in all kinds of ways.

  • I can not even believe that this year is almost over.

    We’ve discussed the Healthy Mind Platter this year as a different way to approach your practice.

    And we dug into some Spiritual Psychology Principles and Skills that seemed to really hit the mark for us.

    This approach was two-fold. We must create “safety” for ourselves through our practice…[Read more]

  • I’ve been working on my unfinished business of healing not knowing my father by doing a lot of writing to sort out my feelings and what the unfinished business is. I’m discovering how multilayered it is, now that I’m actually looking at it and not ignoring it. One layer is not knowing much about my father as a person, who he was, and who he turne…[Read more]

    • Jane, glad you are here and able to articulate the layers. I see you separating out the different threads that hold the relationship narrative. What I witness is that you are the one you are doing this for. The very fact that you are saying that the pain is there and real, is the start to healing. It is sacred work, holding a candle of light for you.

    • The intention is what matters. I often hear people say, I don’t know what this will look like or I don’t know how. Of course, you don’t. The intention will guide your energy and give your energy the attention it needs to blossom into healing. I so relate with the layers of healing. It was great to hear you acknowledge these different pieces. Each…[Read more]

      • Thank you Bev. I can definitely feel the shift. In the past I would’ve been freaking out wanting to know how to “fix” it vs heal it and needing to know “how”…to now feeling peaceful about not knowing the how, and just peeling it all back and looking at it and like you said having the intention to heal and trusting that it will all unfold how…[Read more]

    • Jane, I honor your courage to tackle this unfinished business. Sending you love and peace.

  • Today’s been a bit of a challenging day. It’s an Air day according to my moon planner and these days can be header for me. Also, my husband is having a mental health challenge right now and that’s been a bit more difficult than usual. Another aunt passed away a few days ago and it’s really effected him negatively. He’s going through a lot of loss…[Read more]

    • Sending you love and a virtual hug if you would like one. Grief seems to stop us all right in our tracks, doesn’t it? It definitely has it’s own timetable. Supporting you and holding a space for you, Bev.

      • Thank you so much! It feels good to have a place to come and just say that things aren’t okay all the time. I’m okay with not being okay. Yet people around me fight. It’s such a weird thing to “help” other people and then witness how you can’t help some of those closest to you.

        • You have had a week of pouring out, may you be filled back up in the days to come.

        • I totally agree. I’ve been in the “it’s okay not to be okay” place for awhile, but I have family members and coworkers who are fighting it and me over the way I choose to live. Their response to everything is “it’s GREAT, it’s WONDERFUL” pretty much all day long…lol. I just keep saying I love them and accept them and their choices, but I’…[Read more]

    • This is a wonderful place to share what is. Sending healing vibes to your husband as he navigates the losses. You are held and supported by the Universe. May provision meet both you and your husband right where you are.

    • Here to listen and support you, sending lots of love!!

  • I checked Zoom and looks like somehow the recording cut off during our last session together. Mercury Retrograde has been especially challenging this go around. Could be that I by accident hit the record button and disabled it. My apologies for that!
