Aloha Friends,

Some of you may know that my Instagram account has been controlled by someone who has been sending messages to my community asking for investment in crypto. Please do not reply to any messages. Please help me report immediately .

Visit the Instagram account, , click the 3 dots at the upper right, and click 'Report'. Click 'Report Account', then click 'It's pretending to be somebody else, someone I know'.

I appreciate everyone who has already reported it and reached out to me personally. One of you even wrote a letter to IG on my behalf…wow, I appreciate it so much!! It’s so nice to feel supported and like there’s some Good Energy behind this process of recovering my account.

Once I got over the shock of how violated I felt, I’ve been doing my best to self-regulate. Inside this experience, I’m prioritizing calmness, taking the right actions, and letting go of things I can’t control.

Nature (as always) has been essential for me to unplug. Patience is necessary, as it could take days or weeks to recover my account. This one’s never come easy for me, but I’m getting better.

Thank you for your continued love and support so much, it truly means so much.

While my Instagram is inaccessible, you will continue to receive inspiration, nourishment, and education through a newsletter and inside our SOMA Collective for Mind-Body Healing Private Group 🙏🏽

A white owl flew over my head at the Tunnels the other day. 🦉

A white owl represents change, transformation, and inner wisdom.
They are associated with magic and witchcraft because of the nature of supernatural transformation, which includes the cycles of birth and death that leads to spiritual evolution.

Feels exactly right where I’m at.
I feel I’m in a bit of a free fall.

A free fall into…
…trust 🙏
…the unknown 🌌
…vast open space and possibility🦋

And instead of feeling scared, I feel held.
Instead of feeling resistant, I feel curious.

The veils are thinner than ever.
More Light coming onto the planet and into our bodies.✨
Can you feel it?

Meditation has felt richer and deeper.
Every time I close my eyes, I feel my awareness go really WIDE, then down and in.🧘🏻

Feels like energy releases from my back body, all of my muscles soften and my mind goes into a place of deep listening. 👂

Feeling a massive shift from a lot of doing to a season of being.

I feel more relaxed and more Present than ever before.
It feels like slowing down and expanding to receive more. ✨

Are you giving yourself space to just be?
What does receiving and expanding look like for you?

Sharing the Mana from this beautiful island.

This is my afternoon reset after computer time.

So necessary and balancing.

She holds and resets me so beautifully.

Mahalo ke Akua for this land and my Life🧜🏻‍♀️🌹🙏

I Surrender to the Great Mystery

What if.....we can open ourselves to receive more?..we can expand bigger than any contraction?..when grasping, we loosen our grip?..when trying to hold one, we let go instead and trust Divine timing?

✨✨✨Would it help you relax?✨✨✨

What if.....we could let go with ease and Grace?..we knew there was a Divine Order to our life and everything in it?..the timing of all things has a Purpose?..every trigger has its Medicine?..we could see it all as good information and take none of it personally?

✨✨✨Would you then feel relief?✨✨✨

What if.....people are there teaching us to know ourselves more deeply?..you are meant to be exactly where you are?..delays have a Higher Purpose?..everything in your life is a gift in some way, shape or form?..your challenges are Purposeful?

✨✨✨Would this help you find meaning in the Darkness and in the Light?✨✨✨

What if.......NOW is the the time to let go and Trust?..What if the path ahead is better than you’d ever imagine?..Life is acting in your favor?

✨✨✨Would you believe me?✨✨✨

05/16/2022

A question I'm pondering regularly lately....

If timing is the only reason two people are separating and there's nothing actually "wrong" with the relationship, can two people lovingly hold each other through the transition of the relationship?

I'll be honest, it's nothing I've ever seen or known.
But I do think it's possible.
And man, I would REALLY appreciate this new imprint.

As the transition of a beautifully healing and loving relationship gets closer and closer for me, all of my own relational trauma is surfacing.

It looks like:
- my inner child fearing that this will be abandonment (ghosting, avoidance, bypassing).
- anxiety surfacing in my body, as I'm reconditioning my nervous system that this isn't "impending doom".
- taking of a lot of space because the emotional part of me thinks I'll be too much for him to be around

Sounds dramatic right?
Yea, it feels dramatic too.

So I do my best to hold the little girl inside who is scared and doesn't really understand why something so beautiful could possibly be ending.

I stay connected to the true needs and authentic desires of my Woman.

And I keep affirming, just because the form of the relationship is changing does not mean the love goes anywhere.

I'm in a full-on practice of unconditional love.....
Love of these wounded parts.
Love of this beautiful man and his Soul's path.
Love for my Woman who has come so far.

At the same time, I'm practicing full Trust of my Soul's path.
I'm choosing to Trust the unfolding of my life, even when it looks different than what I imagined.

Although it somehow seems easier to push someone away, I feel super committed to co-creating a loving transition and that feels good.

The biggest Truth I can see is that when it comes down to it, all we can do is Love, Trust and Surrender.

Current mood after 3 months of launch mode and finally having the first class of Foundations of Healing today.

I felt overwhelmed with the Divine energy that is inside and carrying this group.

Feeling quite blessed to be where I am and hold this container of healing and transformation.🦋

Thank you to the beautiful Souls who joined for trusting me to be your Guide…I don’t take it lightly and I’m here for it🌹

BIG exhale for me 💨

When each one of us gets out of survival mode, we all win.

05/11/2022

Welcoming 12 beautiful women and 2 men into Foundations of Healing feels so sweet. 🙌💜

Now that I know how much work goes on behind the scenes to launch a program, I’m excited for the actual start of it tomorrow!🥳

It helps that I believe in this work 1000% and truly feel it’s my Soul’s Purpose to serve in this way.😇

Enjoying the energetic preparation inside myself to hold this container, as well as intuitive downloads that stream through now that the group is gathered. 👁

I’m so ready to guide this vortex of healing and transformation.🦋

Thank you Mama Kaua’i for holding me the way you do, so I can hold others.🙏

I'm not stranger to emotional intensity.
In fact, navigating what has felt like overwhelming emotions most of life has shaped what I teach others now.

Some of us are BIG feelers.
Highly sensitive beings.
We feel the pain of others, of our ancestral line and for the Planet.
Most of all we feel our tender Hearts.

What do you do with yourself when your emotions feel HUGE?
Do you distract?
Numb?
Drugs or alcohol?
Turn to s*x?

Most of us were never taught...
1) how to feel our feelings
2) how to communicate what we feel
3) how to transmute the energy through our bodies

These should be the basics we learn in middle school in my opinion, as well as practically how our nervous systems work and how we bring ourselves back to calm and centered when we go into fight, flight or freeze.

Most of the time when we are triggered, it's a much younger part of us reacting and that needs attention and love.

How did your parents react to you when you were upset?
If you were met with frustration, annoyance or impatience, that's probably how you have been or will meet your inner child when he/she needs you.

No one is a perfect parent.
We are reaching for a more evolved way of parenting we probably weren't shown.

So when we start reparenting, it can be a bit of trial and error to learn how to truly reach your inner child.
What I know to be true is that it has to be:
1) authentic
2) honest
3) consistent

If you aren't authentically meeting your inner child where they are at, they won't listen.
If you aren't being honest with what you are saying or your actions don't match your words, they won't trust you.
If you aren't consistent, they won't know that you're going to be reliable and may think you'll just abandon them again.

Feeling grateful for my life on this little island, the experience of BIG love, opening all the time to higher levels of receiving. 🥰🌹🦋

So often we get fused with our wounded inner child.

The voice inside that's shaming and sounds like a harsh inner critic can be intense.

What I know to be true is that we all have this capacity to access the part of us that knows how to hold us through anything.
Heartbreak & loss.
Emotional intensity.
Intense confusion or grief.

It's always there.
If you can't feel it, get quiet and still.
Ask for your Higher Self to connect with you.

You'll know its your Higher Self because it sounds loving, more neutral and patient with you.
Rest in this knowing that you always have access to this part, even when the emotions of the wounded inner child are consuming you.

Be with inner child that needs attention.
Acknowledge him or her and let them know it makes sense why they feel the way they do, given their experience.
Then it's possible to update them on what's true now.

Interested in...
- meeting the unmet needs of your inner child?
- stopping the cycles of people pleasing, being the fixer, having sh*tty boundaries and unraveling codependency?
- learning the ins and outs of your nervous system and how to regulate it?
- receiving new imprints of safe connection with others doing the work?

Application for 4-month course, Foundations of Healing: Reparenting & Your Return to power is now open, join us as we start on May 17!

It's 4-month immersive experience of monumental healing to completely rewire your nervous system, transform trauma in community and create safety from within by becoming the secure parent of your inner child.

My 20+ years of being in the healing and therapy worlds, searching for the root cause and what will make the most practical, tangible difference has led me into Nervous System Regulation and Somatic Reparenting.

Easter 🌹

What if we could resurrect the inner, most authentic parts of our Soul?✨

What would it look like to embody and express your True Self in this lifetime?🤔

For me it would be…
🦋Attuning to inner peace on a regular basis
🦋Truly receiving the Present Moment
🦋Honoring the pace of my body
🦋Trusting the unfolding of my life
🦋Accepting the direction of others people’s life path
🦋Seeing myself in others
🦋Accessing compassion for myself and others

☝️No one do the resurrecting for us.
We have to choose it.

At the same time, we have to:
🦉see the old stories and hold the magnitude of our Soul’s potential
🦉update the old programs by giving ourselves difference experiences
🦉lean into our discomfort to receive new imprints
🦉use our imagination to dream bigger than our limiting beliefs

💜This work is not for the faint of Heart.
I see you.
You’re doing a great job.
Give yourself credit for how far you’ve come and celebrate your wins.🥳

I’m no stranger to big emotions.
I feel my body go into freeze.🥶
I feel like crawling in bed.
I feel like isolating. 🙅🏽‍♀️

My energy feels heavy and low.
I watch the negative thoughts go by like an old story. 🤯

Then I remember I’m not doing this anymore.
I pick myself up.
It feels like overcoming inertia.
I get out and move my body.🤸🏻‍♀️

I absorb the colors of nature. ⛰
I let the sound of the ocean be my soothing companion. 🌊
I gather my energy from the sun. 🌞

And I remember I am safe here and now.🙏
I am Divinely supported and almost nothing is ever what it seems.😇

03/24/2022

I believe in the healing power of the human body. More often than not, conventional medicine hyper-focuses on symptoms and overlooks the whole person. If we want to create true, lasting health transformations, we have to address the underlying root cause of illness. No more bandaids. No more shellacked-over-sh*t.

And my favorite way to support people is to guide them through the work that's typically been left out of their personal growth journey. This is through Somatic Therapy, Reparenting and Nervous System Regulation.

And I love seeing other practitioners with that same passion, supporting their own clients in freeing themselves from chronic suffering.

If you feel that same spark, and if you want to discover new ways to increase your impact and capacity to help others – or even heal yourself! – I invite you to join The Purpose of Healing Summit, hosted by my friend/fellow practitioner

It’s a completely FREE 10-day inspiration party for practitioners celebrating the metamorphosis of pain and struggle into fulfilling work, money, and miracles.

I will be in conversation with Laura about the future of healing and would love to have you there.

Whether you’re a practitioner in search of inspiration or a health advocate and self-healer who wants to plug into the solution-based science wellness scene, we’ve got you covered.

Each day, you’ll experience:

✨ Daily speaker panels with experts speaking on topics like Trusting the Body's Messages, Healing the "Unhealable", Becoming the Practitioner you Needed, and Co-Creating Health, Wealth, and Happiness.

✨ Daily Holistic Business Sessions with practical exercises to help you more fully tap into your prosperity potential calling in more fulfilling work, lots more money, and an infinite abundance of miracles.

✨ A private Facebook group where you can interact with other attendees, as well as your host Laura Bautista, Board Certified Holistic Health Coach and Trauma Informed Business Educator.

The party starts March 28! Click the link in my bio to register!

I’ve been storing 2 big boxes of photo albums in my friend’s garage for the last 7 years. Thanks Monica!
She couldn’t store them any longer, so I started going through them.
I knew I’d throw a lot of them away.

As I looked through albums and albums of high school and college,
I noticed I started to feel….this disappointment.

I stared right into the face of the most unhealthy parts of me.
When I partied WAY too much and didn’t know how to take care of myself yet.

I could see the girl who didn’t know how to meet her needs yet.
The girl that was mostly sarcastic and had a lot of suppressed anger.
The one that didn’t acknowledge how she really felt.
Said yes when she was a no.

Seeing my chubby face from all the alcohol made me feel sad towards these parts of myself.

Like I could’ve done better.
Like my past was supposed to be any different than it was.

Of course, it wasn’t.
Or it would have been.

Every single poor choice, mistake or perceived failure was exactly as it should have been.
Every single part has led me to where I am now…the healthiest, most honest and True version of myself.

And I wouldn’t change it.
☝️Except I would like to know one thing….where in the world is Alaina Box? 🌍

This is a big part of what I’m teaching in my free Masterclass series for Recovering the Nervous System….

When I didn’t put into practice that “where my attention goes, my energy goes”, I ended up exhausted and energetically depleted.

This is especially true for anyone with codependent tendencies!
When we are “the fixer”, lack healthy boundaries, the “people pleaser” or tend to obsess over relationships or people, we are leaking energy.
This tendency to have an extreme focus outside the self usually comes our early years as a child where we learned to be hypervigilant of our caregivers and environment.

This is especially true for those of us that have tendencies of anxious attachment (catch next Wednesday’s class about this).
There are remedies for this and we can learn to bring all of energy back inside our bodies.
We can identify the childhood pattern and begin to choose the response of the Healthy Adult.

We can catch the tendencies of anxiousness or avoidance and choose to something different to rewire ourselves, instead of feeding the trauma response.

Never underestimate speaking and meeting your needs, taking space when needed and using your life force energy for your own healing.

Masterclass topics next 2 Wed:
3/23: avoidant/anxious trap
3/30: developing a felt sense of boundaries

I had a client today whose whole intention for the session was to be more soft.
When we went into the Somatic Reparenting session around it....
I had her tune into the feelings of not being soft & the emotional experience she described was one of feeling powerless and alone.
Eventually what came to the surface was her 5 y/o little girl who wanted to feel seen and understood.
A little girl whose advice to her Adult was to "stop trying to control things so much, let go more and chill out!"

I love working with the inner child, they are so wise, innocent and bring us back to simplicity.

Adult humans are really strong.
I see so much resilience on a daily basis.
It's instilled in most of us to be strong and keep getting back up again and again.

What perhaps isn't so instilled is this idea of softness and genteless.
It's often a subtle energetic shift that can happen within where we can approach things with more spaciousness and relaxation, which would mean we are doing things from a relaxed nervous system.

There are signs all over Kauai that say "TRY SLOWER."
It's been my message ever since living on the island and I'm consistently trying to be softer and slower.
Not an easy thing when you grew up around people that go 90 mph, but as each day passes I continue to attempt to go ....even.....slooooower.
