The Healing Abode

We must create healthy ‘stressors’. Experiences that stretch & challenge us. This requires our devotion to moments, ones that meet an edge for us.

In a world where most of us have grown up with unhealthy stress, we have become a society addicted to stress (even though we say we don’t want it!)

We MUST BRIDGE the experience.

I encounter this regularly in the world, in my clients, friends, family & relationships of all forms.

People are desiring restoration, yet it often becomes collapse or an avoidance of life & inability to feel safe in meeting the moment.
Usher in the age of = cancelling, leaving, inability or unwillingness to exercise communication, short term relationships & an inability to see endeavours, business & visions through.

So what do we do in this day and age? In this scenario?
We must replace our poor stressors with positive ones. Ones that GROW our capacity & ability to meet & be in life. That brings experience of the FULFILMENT that comes from being in life, or doing something ‘hard’. We must create experiences for ourself where we become more of the version of us, that we would take pride & honour in.

Try jujitsu, swimming in icy creeks, making weird noises, replacing your social media time with an interesting podcast or healing meditation. Planning a challenge or adventure for yourself and putting it into action.
Really.. commit anything that’s an opening edge, small or large and SEE IT THROUGH.
It’s going to vary for person to person.

Men and women may differ in their choices here.
We may vary on what we are called to.
Why is this so important?

Well if you desire successful, rewarding & real relationships, friendships, community connections, businesses, internal & external life experience with depth, you will need to rewire your unhealthy dispositions.

Otherwise you may find yourself destroying the thing you called in, creating drama, pain, stress and looking for problems in the areas of life you actually wanted & chose. Because your system is not getting the ‘stress’ it is used to & has been programmed with, either in this lifetime, or down your ancestral line.

Everything surrounding you pays the toll when you don’t create regular devotional time to deepen with you, including you.

Everything I do in my passion, is intimate, is healing.
An oil, blend, healing balm, or 1 on 1 session, is tailored to you, and your energy. What you’re moving through, what supports you on a deeper level than appearances would have others perceive.
I have a devotion to your inner world 🖤

Taking the time.
In a society addicted to processing fast, processing BIG, processing can become an evasive tactic to feeling or perpetuate ‘rollarcoasting’ emotionally.
Sometimes, an experience needs its personal time to exist and unravel. To reveal, be seen and perhaps to dissipate or integrate.

The next experience you have that feels ‘difficult’ to be with to move through, might be slower or longer than the last experience you had, or faster.

My recommendation here, is just taking a few slow breaths, to tune in with what will support and suit you.

It may be time.
A conversation with a friend.
A session with your healer.
A walk in the forest.
To share what’s on your heart with someone.
A hand to hold.
A moonlight street walk.
To journal.
To do movement.
To run.
To play.
To punch pillows and scream as loud as you can, for as long as you can.
To dive to the bottom of the creek and stay there.
To have your housemates or partner tickle you until you can’t breathe.
It might be silence, or quietness.
To read a book or watch a familiar show that grounds you.
To pray.
To have a cup of tea and breath deeply.
It can be so many things.

Who am I to say, what suits you, today.
But I am here, to remind you, that it can look any way.
All you need to do is attune, to you, to guide your way.

With love,

How can you handle a situation someone or yourself previously handled ‘poorly’, with true grace?

Do you let the energy or frequency of grace into your system.

Grace is essentially linked to/creates internal peace. If you are at a stage of your life where you are experiencing more grace & peace, and that frequency is rewiring your being, can you invite in grace as things occur. Even if they feel harsh?

For those that have only ever know stress love, reactive love, showy love, exuberant proving love, hard love, drama based love, painful love… allowing grace to be upon you while you experience life can feel foreign, unknown and subtle.

But once the inkling is there, the opening is too.

Grace does not mean suppressing, or quiet, or boring. It means your soul & the deeper layers of your system get to integrate & feel at rest, safer & an experience of knowing & faith undercurrents external experiences.

You can take a breath in that, slow down & respond or not, from THAT space.

Not all people will allow themselves to receive grace, or feel the healing of grace, yet they still get to feel you allowing it for yourself if you let yourself.

Grace & inviting yourself to be in & experience more grace might lead you to radical action.
Different choices, ways of moving in the world, relating & expressing. It’s all perfect. Enjoy the grace. May we all experience it.

Some of the faces of Joy from my Poetry evenings.
I’m a big advocate for joy. It’s one of the reasons I hold poetry evenings. A gathering of people can come, and sometimes life has been hard or heavy prior, and the topics may not be ‘joy’ themed, but the alchemical change that occurs when we share from our hearts, no matter the theme, and see that we are safe in that witnessing… well.. it’s a blueprint game changer.

From new shares, from people that have never stood in front of others before to be witnessed in such a way, to those still practicing or seasoned. The smiling face & tears of joy of poetry has no common dominator, except for choosing to be there on the night.

I hope you get to feel the magic too.

P1: For me it’s about the choice for the journey. I had a client that’s been with me for awhile now, request a year program.

I felt so full & met. To have a client that is devoted to their journey, is what nourishes and excites me as a practitioner.

I’m not here for the 1 off sessions that make a buck. It’s not what my goal or desire is.

I CARE. I CARE about people’s life experience, what they could get and know, by choosing the journey.

I’ve been asked, “what does it feel like to receive X amount of money” when I’ve set a longer program or container. That’s not really my focus whatsoever. Yes. There is the exchange that fits the energy & time for my work, but for me it’s really about HOW IT FEELS to witness & be a champion for the journey someone is about to embark on to meet themselves, life & a fulfilling experience.
What excites & nourished me, is watching someone’s beatific evolution & discovery.

Today deeply solidified how important it is for me to be working with individuals that are showing up for the journey.

Whilst I’ve shared that I do mostly container work, there can be a ‘fall-off’ point when someone feels better than they did, and so they put off their next appointment, prioritise work or something that Is suddenly more important than their connection to self. Then when they do make it back… well there is a back log to work through. They’ve missed an opportunity that was waiting within themselves!

I know from experience & seeing their energetic field the LEAPS & BOUNDS & AMAZEMENT someone can experience when they REALLY show up continuously, deeply honouring their internal world through this action, even when it doesn’t logically make sense.

PENNY’S POETRY
What are you waiting for..
What tendrils hold you back from the expression in life…
Is it safety that you look to find?
If so, this is a place where your expression can be in the safety of becoming.

These poetry nights are not typical…
They involve a present welcoming, a cleansing 💨
A place for you to revel in the beauty shared, revived, reclaimed & the unfolds to be cleared of shame.
You are fed, nourished, LOVED.
These nights wynd as they suit the collective, and you are welcome to join.

This Friday, at 6pm, I hope to see you. I hope to see you in what you need.

With love & devotion to the night, Penny

Beautiful photography by whom we deeply appreciate 🙏♥️♥️

You cannot engage with people that are looking for a fight, or looking to win, or control on any level.
You will always lose (if you’re trying to win). It’s a hollow reckoning.
You cannot engage with YOURSELF from this space & truly win.

I’ve had some big lessons in people pleasing.

And the people pleasing part is on me.
I want harmony. I want peace.

But I had let it override my truth & intuition in moments. I let it serve unhealthy dynamics. I’d make myself wrong or take blame that didn’t feel true, to have ‘peace’, to have ‘love’.

So what can I do, or we do, as people, when conversations or interactions put us in a space of subservience or being unseen?

No matter how nicely something is said, if underlying it there is an energetic current of a pushed desired reaction, result or effort in the way that suits mentally ‘boxing it in’, we are in… power play.

It’s like if the debate team in high school all chose to afterwards stick deeply & rigidly to the perspective of the team they were on, instead of zooming out & opening to integrating both realities.

We do that. It’s not wrong. But it definitely doesn’t support unity or understanding.

Or that reality that we could even be wrong. (That’s an Ouch).

That there are two sides, hence the debate, & both are existing at the same time. Wild huh!

I’ve always been big on communication. The nuance I’ve known & re-learned, is that communication is not just TALKING.

There are times of my life where choosing talking when my intuition or higher guidance (not the fear/avoidance part) said no, generally always ended up in with a) confusion, or b) power play.

One of my favourite practitioners Steve Katz (Infinite Potential Centre), who works a lot of energetic dynamics, touches on this. ‘When a wound is triggered, step right back, be with yourself, process, then come back together once both have been with the deeper wound & gotten to clarity. Otherwise you’ll just keep cycling & playing parts. You’ll get nowhere.’ *paraphrasing
Short version: We play out the wounds we need to heal until we address, process or move through them. (They CAN be layered. That’s ok.)

I’m loving the reflections that are coming up to be loved & healed, because they have hurt the life I do desire for myself, my partnership, home, family, experience, connection to life, God. Everything.

I grew up trusting that everyone would like me. Knowing I was a good human being and showed up for people. My life reflected this belief over and over until the last 16 ish months in moments.

Well… what do we do when no matter how you act or what you do, that isn’t good enough for someone?
Ohh!! That’s uncomfortable.

You cannot be beaten into love.
Physically or energetically.
You can be ground into subservience, people pleasing or fear. You cannot be pushed into love. You can give up your power. You can lose yourself to someone else opinion.

(Cue *existential kinks, & sub-dom intimate play contradictions. *I actually love a bit of strong physical safe play)

You, I, we are beautiful humans, not robots to technically explain ourselves away to appease and make sense, when bigger things are at play.

If you know in your heart, in your SOUL, you’re acting in the best interests of a situation, trust your heart. No matter how uncomfortable it makes you or someone else because it might not ‘look’ how you or someone wants.

But watch out… you may be THE BAD GUY in someone else story, and you’ll have to be ok with that.

I’ve been the good guy long enough, I guess it’s time I experience being the bad guy in someone else’s reality, & I’m getting fu***ng ok with being that.

What are the fears that come up? Gossip about me, misconceptions. What are the pains? Not being seen for my service. Ok. That’s life. It’s not perfect. But moving into being ok with it, feels kinda perfect. Feels opening.

I don’t want to get to the end of my life, & know I didn’t deeply serve, that instead I appeased. I love life enough for that.
