When you feel triggers, emotional, or uncomfortable with something you’re experiencing and you immediately need to share with others or project onto someone else, you’re missing an opportunity.

I’m not an “elder”, but I want to be one.

If you crave the peace of “Spirit”, becoming an elder is a necessity.

To walk the path of the elder, we must digest the pain we experience.

What I do is I have a 2-3 day refractory period anytime I’m upset where I don’t share or say anything to anyone.

I let my body run through the full emotional cycle of what it’s experiencing.

At the end of the cycle, 95% of the time, I realize that my discomfort and pain was about me, not about the other person.

And I don’t say anything to the person who irritated me anyway.

This allows me to gain the wisdom of I why I was upset and cleanup karma as I develop my emotional and spiritual bodies to receive the discomfort of life.

Because when we don’t digest the pain and we immediately project, we miss the opportunity to develop these bodies.

And someone else gets the opportunity to digest the pain.

Sharing without projection can be helpful if someone needs support processing what’s going on, if the truly don’t have an intent to leave their “stuff” in someone else’s burden basket.

We then need to share very mindfully if at all.

My conditioning makes it easy for me to process alone, internally, because this is what I always did.

When you’re able to go into the darkness of your psyche alone knowing no one else is coming to save you, you’ll find a level of sovereignty and heart-centeredness that is impossible to find when you lean too much on others.

The more pain we digest and wisdom we accumulate, the more elders we will create in the next 30-50 years.

What greater gift is there for our younger generations?

You might not be conscious of it, but chronic pain sufferers’ subconscious knows who they can trust.

Who the pain doctors and therapists are that are:

⭐️ very skilled at fixing chronic pain.
❤️ have a huge heart.
🔥 who can give them their lives back.

Our people are suffering, immensely.

Chronic musculoskeletal pain continues to become a worsening epidemic with no real end in sight.

seeks to be the solution people are desperate for.

There seems to be a common pattern so far.

Our ARM providers REALLY CARE about people.

They want to make a difference.

And they have their own stores of suffering…

Like you, in your darkest hour.

Maybe thinking of leaving this earth.

Maybe, raging with fists flying.

Or maybe, a river of tears that just wouldn’t seem to stop.

How did you get through?

Somehow, you did.

And now, you have an opportunity to help others …

My life is so blessed.

Sometimes, I forget how much I suffered.

How I fantasized about dying for a decade as an adolescent.

Trying to destroy myself with football, alcohol, people on the street who just might shoot me.

Thankfully, I have marks on my body to remember.

Scars from self mutilation.

Yes, definitely to get other people’s attention.

Even to sexualize myself.

All so that I could feel something.

Because I didn’t know how to get the years of torment to stop.

Physical pain to take away the emotional & spiritual pain at least for a few hours. Or in the case of burns, for a few months.

This scar is on my chest.

You can see the old scars dying off & the newer ones still raised.

I must’ve burned this one over my heart 6-7 times.

🔥 Evidence of why this mission of revolutionizing chronic pain matters so fu***ng much to me.

Because you, yes you reading this, can do something about someone’s suffering.

And I will do anything in my power to help one more person suffer less & experience the peace, joy, & love that I continue to discover.

But I can’t do it without you. Because not everyone can fly to New Jersey for treatment.

❤️❤️If you’re a manual therapist who resonates, comment “train” and let’s talk about saving lives.

On Easter, kids do Easter egg hunts.

Why eggs?

Eggs symbolize “life coming from the lifeless.”

Winter is a season of death or dormancy.

But with Spring, we start to see new life bloom.

The trees bud, the flowers sprout, and the birds become more active.

We start seeing more life as the days become longer and warmer.

Im reminded that while an egg may look dead or dormant, there’s still life inside.

While parts of me may feel like I’m failing, making mistakes, or dying, Spirit reminds me that there are still glowing embers burning.

What do I need to breathe life into to rekindle the life of that ancient fire in my chest?

For me, it’s remaining vigilant of who I am, a spiritual being inside of a physical meat suit.

Surrendering to Great Spirit’s will, not my own.

👉 How about you this Easter or Spring?

I wish beautiful golden eggs for you, leave the diarrhea eggs to my boys. 🤮

The more I open myself up to and look for synchronicities and signs that I’m being communicated with from the spiritual, quantum world, the more messages I seem to get.

At ceremony last weekend, Lauren picked the card.

She intuitively said to herself, “This isn’t for me.”

At the end of ceremony, she gave it to me and said, “This is for you.”

At the surface level, she said she saw shapeshifting.

After all, that’s one of the attributes of “bear medicine”.

But I remember seeing “mitragynia” before.

I googled it. It’s Kratom.

The substance I’ve been abusing for the past 2 years before stopping 4-6 weeks ago.

I laughed out loud due to face slap Great Spirit gave me.

Reminding me, “we are always held.”

I read about this medicine — The shadow side of this plan is addiction, self-abandonment, and failure to grow.

Which is why I’ve disrespected this medicine and have experienced these things over the past 2 years.

I’m curious if in the future, I can have a proper relationship and experience the light side of this plant medicine: subconscious healing, synchronizing Spirit and earth, time travel, and transcending illusion.

But I was told not to explore that light side right now.

So I’ll see if I can develop the relationship without consumption.

👉 Do you pay attention to signs? What’s the last one you’ve had?

When we don’t live in community, we don’t know how our people are doing.

We need to be seeing and feeling each other all day, every day, to truly be there for our tribe.

Most people in today’s day and age are good at hiding things if they feel they need to.

I’ll take myself.

When I’ve been really depressed, most people around me didn’t know.

Or if they did know, they didn’t say anything to me.

Through no fault of their own.

If we don’t live cultivating presence, then we are missing signals from our environments.

When one of my best friends, Rice, killed himself, his friend who he lived with from the time his parents did at age 14 till college had no idea he was suicidal.

And he had spoken to Rice the day before he did it.

Until we can live as a tribe again, it’s vitally important you check on the people you care about.

You never know when you won’t have a chance to tell them you love them.

❤️✊🐻

The earth is one of the most natural expressions of God or Creator.

I defined “the land” as the expression of Earth in our immediate vicinity, losing connection in a growing radius outside of our location on her surface.

Wherever we are, the land has specific qualities with specific wisdom to it.

Near the oceans, people have relations with the seagulls, fish, whales, dolphins, wind, and sand.

In the mountains, people have relations with the trees, wolves, bears, ticks, and rivers.

In the Amazon, primitive healers know exactly which plants heal which conditions.

Most of us have lost this connection to the land.

Evidence is observed in our lack of respect for the seasons.

We don’t get enough sunlight. Get too much blue light.

Don’t put our feet in the soil.

Can’t hear the birds during the day or the crickets at night, despite science proving that these sounds regulate our brain waves.

And we wonder why we are so depressed and sick?

Seems to me that if we truly wanted to be at peace, connect with Creator, be healthy and happy, we would resume that relationship with a consciousness that is literally always reaching out to us.

All you have to do is go outside and become present to the sun on your skin and the birds whistling in your ear.

And say “thank you.”

She’s not going anywhere.

Unless we create NYC on all land masses or kill her.

Then, she will be gone.

They’re always watching.

Your kids … and everyone else.

The First Nations raised their children very hands-off.

Because their lifestyle was aligned with nature, all the little ones had to do was watch and mirror.

I don’t know about you, but I was told, “Do as I say, not as I do.”

But that’s not the way our tiny brains were programmed.

Mirror neuron exist for a reason.

Katie and my strategy is to be who we were meant to be and act accordingly.

Then, let Bear and Koa watch and learn by making their own mistakes.

Because I do cold plunges all winter and go outside in the frigid cold in my underwear and bear feet, Katie told me that teachers at school find Bear and Koa outside without jackets and with no socks or shoes on, playing.

(I want them to be conditioned to liking and tolerating the cold because so many people have negative conditioning towards the weather.)

They all recently went to Mexico.

The boys were excited to send me these pictures of their tattoos.

Katie and I have tattoos.

I like using my body for creative expression and maybe, because they see them on us, they’ll want to do the same when they’re over 18. Not that I care either way.

Kids do this naturally.

Most of us adults have to remind ourselves to pay attention to what others around us are learning by our way of being.

And, to keep our brains plastic and moldable, to remember to observe others.

What’s working for others that might work for us?

What’s not working for others that we are also doing that isn’t working for us?

Then, modify accordingly.

We all have successes and failures all around us.

We just need to pay attention.

❤️🙏🏼🐻

Show your cards.

When you do, you will live in integrity with yourself and will walk the path of healing.

Most importantly, you find the depths of self-love and connection to your higher power that is our birth right.

When I share the sh*tty things I’ve done or the things I’m ashamed of …

🤮 Treating my partner poorly as a covert narcissist, telling her I want to sleep with other people, having an emotional affair, etc

🤮 Shoving my son Bear on more than one occasion

🤮 My various addictions, with the last one being a 2 year stint with Kratom

… these “card showings” have given me and the people who claim to care about me a real opportunity at healing.

When you enter the darkness with your people, you get to do what humans have been doing some the beginning of time.

🐻 Healing as a collective

But when you hide your cards, you’ll:

❌ have superficial relationships
❌ lower self love
❌ push your higher power away
❌ lose integrity, and one small lie leads to an eventual bigger lie
❌ fragment your psyche and push your wounds further into the shadow

If you’re human, you’re worthy of love and connection to Great Spirit.

But you have to be naked to have that.

Like Rumi said, “If you’re not naked, go back to sleep.”

The Grandmothers and Grandfathers of this land are all around us.

Our First Nations and the ancestors of all of our individual lineages had a spirituality and worldview that was animistic.

All things were (and still are) conscious.

“Original Thinking” by Glenn Aparacio Parry (one of the top 5 books that changed my life) is a dialogue between quantum physicists and First Nations elders.

What the elders believe, quantum physicists confirmed to be true.

Due to the popularity of Abrahamic religions and our country’s forefathers being primarily Christian, many of us have lost the ability to hear the Spirits of our magical land.

That doesn’t mean that they’re not trying to communicate.

When people ask me what this tattoo by is about, I tell them, “He’s Grandfather”, a spirit who came to me for the first time on Jan 1, 2018, during a Grandfather mushroom ceremony.

He’s been with me in my meditations when I visit the Grandfather fire in my psyche for years.

I realize he doesn’t want me sharing.

My hope is that he’ll forgive me and continue to be present for me since my intentions are to rekindle belief in the people of this land so that the Grandmothers and Grandfathers are present to support us through life the way they used to be across our world.

If there’s a small part of you, even 1%, that is in agreement, you can resume this relationship by reaching out through prayer, in meditation, in the stillness of nature, or in the whispering sizzle of your next fire. ❤️🐻🦅🔥

Whatever you’re going through, and this too, shall pass.

If it’s good, it’ll pass.

If it’s bad, it’ll pass.

That’s Nature.

The Buddhists remind us not to get attached or cling to anything.

Because it’s all temporary.

You’re guaranteed not to suffer forever.

And while, the good will pass, there will be more good in the future as we continue to surrender and let go.

If you’re struggling right now, remember:

❤️ your breath

❤️ the ground underneath your feet

❤️ your prayer and connection to the intelligence that created you

I promise, the suffering will end.

I’m sending you love. ❤️🙏🏼

I don’t claim to know what’s going on or have any answers for the world we are inhabiting.

I can imagine someone who knows more telling me that there’s a smaller cost to pay to prevent a larger cost of more human lives being lost.

But it feels to me like the country I’m in will proceed by whatever means to pursue its agenda.

I’m not ok with that.

We are better than this.

I don’t know the path forward.

But seems to me like we can open our collective hearts.

Those schoolgirls were someone’s kids.

Imagine if they were yours?

The world, our reality, is as we perceive it.

I had two conversations yesterday with people who were telling me how bad and scary the world is right now as we bombed Iran just a week ago.

While I don’t disagree that there are scary things happening, there is also a LOT OF GOOD happening too.

Note: Since the beginning of time, bad and scary things have always happened and will always happen.

That’s the balance of yin and yang, sun and moon, warm and cold.

I digress.

Here are good things my meat suit’s visual orbs have observed in the past 24 hours.

1️⃣ You and I both woke up, which means, we are alive.

Does anything else even matter? LOL — a million bonus points for GOOD.

2️⃣ You and I both are on social medial on a phone.

Tell a human 100 years ago, or better yet, a caveman, that we have this technology to observe EVERYTHING going on in the world and I imagine their heads would explode.

The First Nations would probably trade 1000 horses for 1 phone.

3️⃣ In my little clinic alone, a bunch of people had a significant halt to their chronic pain yesterday.

One woman’s husband hugged me and thanked me 7x during a 15 min visit for helping his wife turn her head again and stop complaining to him.

4️⃣ In a few weeks, a couple of women with PTSD will have an opportunity to release their trauma in ceremony and with community.

5️⃣ I am privileged to be texting and speaking with a friend going through a divorce every day.

He struggles with addiction, self hatred, and suicidal ideation.

His suffering reminds me how desperately we all need community and gives me an opportunity to serve another human. Great Spirit’s will, not mine.

That’s just one person’s observations.

I bet that you can find some things to feel good about.

Don’t be sucked in by the pull of TV and social media.

This is a reminder to myself too.

Our genetics have a pessimistic bias.

We must work to stay positive.

If enough of us do, then, we can move ⛰️ mountains.

Much love ❤️🙏🏼🐻🦅

“If you’re not naked, go back to sleep.”

Rumi said that.

It’s wise.

Why is it wise?

Most of us go through our days dealing with negative emotions such as anxiety, depression, anger, guilt, shame, and sadness.
