Conducting Reiki attunements recently has opened up contemplation on the process and power of Invocation.

Invocation is the practice of expanding our consciousness to meet the divine so our intention is directed under the guidance and through the power of Spirit.

It can be used to manifest a life goal, set your daily intentions, facilitate your gratitude practice or attune someone to Reiki. The list goes on.

Once upon a time Invocation was practiced only by Shamans and Holy people but today it is a way for anyone to connect with Spirit, explore the human potential and engage in and with life.

Two fundamental pillars of invocation (and intuitive development) are, “Stillness” and “Awareness”. They are a great starting point to explore the fullness of who you are and your ability create the life that you want to live.

Some of my wonderful mentors and guides have shared their truth around growth.
“Find comfort in the discomfort”
“There is no growth without focus, effort and sacrifice”
All are wonderful pearls of wisdom and truth. For me, growth is about finding your outer edge or recognising it when life is steering you in a new direction. When you orient and centre yourself, then you can lean into the unknown which may come with fear, doubt or excitement. This is where we learn about ourselves, who we truely are and what we are made of.

Does any one else feel as though the new year is only beginning now? Maybe it’s because I’ve kicked off the year with some much needed surgery followed up by testing positive to “That which shall not be mentioned”. It’s needless to say that I am so ready to be feeling well.
I’ve had plenty of time to sit with myself in reflection, sitting with “Who I am”, “Who I am not” and my relationship to everything and everyone in my life. I must say it has been confronting and liberating at the same time. What is truth is that I love offering what I do. I love the connection to Spirit, the constant learning, the creativity, the challenge to refine (no it’s not always rainbows and butterflies) and the honour of taking the path with my clients.

So this is a little belated, but wishing you all a magical 2023 full of growth, discovery and connection.

Blessings,
Matt

Rewatching GOT recently has got me thinking about one of the key themes in the show - “Duty and Service”
Each of the main characters takes us on a journey in their pursuit of power with some characters “Duty and Service” anchored in honour and truth and others invested in survival and self interest.

I believe we humans are wired up to seek out experiences that have meaning. In yesteryear that may have come in the form of “Duty and Service” but now this has evolved to “Purpose and Service”.

Purpose, an inner world experience, is the fuel that drives focus, commitment and resilience. When Purpose and Service (to family, community, humanity, ourselves) combine it brings meaning to what we are doing. We have the power to move mountains, creativity to bring vision to form and a drive to offer our gifts wherever and whenever we can.

After a short social media detox I’m stepping back in refreshed and ready to roll

Super excited about the launch of my new website

28/06/2022

During a visit to a dear friend navigating a very difficult path my heart was unexpectedly cracked wide opened.
Though the conversation had every right to go there, there was no victimisation or sadness as we talked through life’s seemingly unfair challenges. It was my friends strength, her resilience and connection to Self that opened my heart up to a life force beyond words. The funny thing was that she had no idea of the impact our time together was having on me. In the presence of a Spirit guided and filled conversation she was reminded of her bravery, an awareness that forgiveness lived in her heart and a belief that much more life was yet to come. The uplift in her voice and energy that stepped in was so vibrant. Now the “Healer” was looking at the “True Healer”

What a gift

This Solstice (Winter for Southern Hemisphere) takes us on a dive into our deepest and darkest places of Self. It provides opportunity to confirm or awaken what is truth and bring forward the gift to live and be it. It’s a time to tune into our senses, our intuition, to check where we have consciously or unconsciously placed energy into our illusions so we can learn and move beyond them free of fear and judgment. Observe the reflections of yourself being mirrored back to you. Sit with them them so you can observe what is Truth and what is not? This can at times trigger resistance. Breathe through it, feel through it, trust yourself to find your lane through to the other side. For those “Empaths” out there (like myself) it is a time of heightened sensitivity so be gentle with yourself. Make time and space each day for reflection so clarity presents and connection can take form.

All things are relative in the earth plane. Darkness and chaos on the same spectrum as light and balance. On the same spectrum and in equal parts. Tune in, move beyond the chaos and feel into the space where all things are possible

Do you feel restlessness or on edge? Feeling that you are not quite in flow, not quite hitting the mark in life?
If the answer is no to all of these, I’m glad to hear it! Keep on doing you. For those who can’t say the same, let’s explore this a little more.
In the collective of humanity, the push to break free or break through has never been stronger. This is having a direct impact on individuals which can be invigorating OR triggering. The key to breaking new ground, pushing new boundaries and experiencing new levels of life’s richness begins with deeper connection to Self.
Without this we can stretch ourselves too far, stretching our life force across too much space. The absence of this strong anchor point can put our life force on life support and increase restlessness. Meditation is a practice that can support a deeper connection to our life force and life itself (regardless of your starting point). It can help us find the outer edge of our comfort zone and beyond. Meditation can help us on our journey to break free or break through with flow and free ourselves of unnecessary stress. I am thinking of running live online healing meditations in the coming months.

What’s your fix?
What do gravitate to when you need to re-centre, relax or when you need to unplug?
What does your fix give you? Where does it take you and your energy? And what would happen if you chose differently?
These are some of my reflections this week. An insightful exercise, diving into my conscious and unconscious habits linked to how I balance life and nurture myself. Thankfully most of my “Go to’s” align to the things I love (exercise, meditation, all things spiritual) and refuel me. What this process has opened is a call to explore the creativity of music so I am going to learn guitar 😀

Take a dive into your conscious and unconscious habits to see what they reveal about how you nurture and refuel yourself.

Similar to the blood flow through the physical heart, the heart chakra requires an inflow and outflow of life force. This means that we must “learn” how to "give” and "receive" the life force of love to and from the self and others. This is not romantic love, rather universal. The life force that helps us to remember our true nature and recognise this in others and all living things.

Destiny is one of life’s great mysteries! It’s the interplay of Choice (application of our will) and Self mastery /development which we directly influence. Feeding into this is our Soul history (Karma) and Divine timing which we have some to no direct influence. Like a set of cogs and gears they are all connected and feed into and off each other.

Mindful living and development of our intuition and Self awareness is a good start, providing tools to tune into and act on life’s knowns. They also wonderful tools to access our souls history, experience the lenses that we see and live life through and feel into the great unknown of “Divine Timing” This provides opportunity to direct our life on more levels.

All we have is the present moment. All things evolve from here.

This and more will be explored in our spiritual mentoring program due to land mid 2022.

“Soul Recognition” is when the deeper aspect of Self recognises the other and triggers a knowing that you have “History” together. Unlike the notion of “Soul Mate”, which is over romanticised, “Soul Recognition” can occur in any type of relationship and trigger an “Electrical Response” bringing on a spectrum of emotions from overwhelm (uplifting) and intrigue to resistance and fear. Regardless of the response it’s always worth sitting with and feeling the emotion to understand the deeper meaning of the connection. These connections often stick in our energy field until we surrender to it or learn, grow and move on.
Am sending ✨✨🌟that you have the opportunity to recognise and celebrate “Soul Recognition” on the nicer end of the spectrum.

Whether we are taking a leap into the new or stepping away from the old, Surrender is often required. Surrender is not giving up or giving in. It is an engaged process requiring trust (in Self, Spirit, process) to navigate the unknown. It requires courage, commitment and calm.

Have you ever set a plan for change but failed to implement? So many people do, despite having clear intentions and commitment.

What awareness do you have around your “Script” (plan, intent and purpose) versus your “Content” (choices, behaviours, beliefs, actions).

Typically, change begins with initial focus and adjustment in one of these areas. Either can be your starting point but getting it correct is crucial to aligning them and achieving the change.

The beginning of any new year is a great time to set or reset priorities. Where are you at with your Script and Content? Maybe you are where you need to be (awesome if that’s the case), and maybe you need to tweak a few things so that you feel more connected to you and what you do. Either way happy reflections.

Blessings,
Matt
