Walking the Spiral of Truth and Love — Daily Reflection

You’ve Gotta Have Faith:

There are seasons when faith feels effortless—
when life is flowing, the path is clear and your heart naturally trusts what comes next.

And then there are seasons when faith becomes a practice.

Not because you’ve done something wrong,
but because life has asked you to walk through fog.

In those moments, faith isn’t a bright certainty.
It’s a small, steady yes.

A yes to the next breath.
A yes to the next honest step.
A yes to staying tender even when the world feels loud.

You’ve got to have faith.

Not the kind that pretends everything is fine.
Not the kind that bypasses grief or pain.
Not the kind that forces optimism.

But the kind that can sit beside uncertainty and whisper: “I’m still here.”

In the SVMT Method, faith isn’t an idea in the mind. It’s a regulation in the body.

It’s what happens when the nervous system softens enough to stop bracing against the future.

Faith is what happens when you stop trying to control everything and start listening for what is true.

Because truth is not always convenient…
but it is stabilizing.

And love…real love…
is what keeps you walking the path
even when you can’t see the destination.

Sometimes faith is simply trusting that the spiral is still spiraling upward even when it feels like you’re circling the same lesson again.

Sometimes faith is believing that what is meant for you will not require you to abandon yourself.

Sometimes faith is the courage to keep your heart open after it has been disappointed.

And sometimes faith is this simple:

You don’t need the whole plan.
You need the next step.

You don’t need certainty.
You need presence.

You don’t need to force life to make sense.
You need to stay connected to the part of you that already does.

So if you’re in a moment where faith feels hard,
let it be gentle.

Let it be small.

Let it be one breath that says: “I’m willing.”

Let it be one honest choice that says: “I trust myself.”

Let it be one quiet return to the heart that says:
“Love is still here.”

Because faith isn’t what you hold when life is easy. Faith is what holds you when life is not.

Have faith my friends…

The Sound You Avoid Is the Doorway

Some sounds feel like warmth—instantly soothing, instantly safe.
And then there are other sounds… the ones that make the body tighten without explanation.

A tone that feels too sharp.
A gong wash that feels too vast.
A low frequency that stirs something ancient.
Even a silence that feels louder than sound.

We often assume discomfort means something is wrong.
But sometimes discomfort is simply a doorway.

In the SVMT Method, sound doesn’t just relax the nervous system—it reveals it.
It shows you where the body trusts… and where it braces.
And often, what we resist isn’t what’s unsafe—
it’s what’s unfamiliar.

Even peace can feel unfamiliar.
Even openness.
Even receiving.

So if a sound feels activating, it isn’t a failure.
It’s information.
It’s your body saying: “There’s something here.”

The practice isn’t pushing through.
It’s meeting the edge with respect.

Pause. Feel your feet. Lengthen the exhale.
Place a hand on the heart or belly and ask:
What is this sound touching in me?
What would help me stay present one degree more?

Over time, what you once avoided may become the very frequency that frees you—
not because you conquered it,
but because you met it with love.

Reflection: What do you tend to avoid—sound, silence, emotion, intensity—because your nervous system braces? What would it look like to meet that edge gently today?

Gong Therapies - A Practitioner Training in Sound, Vibration & Transformational Presence

This is not simply a course. It is an initiation into resonance.

The Gong Therapies Course is a deep, embodied training for practitioners, facilitators, and space-holders who feel called to work with the gong as a living instrument of transformation. Rooted in the SVMT Method of Transformation, this course weaves together somatic awareness, vibrational intelligence, mindfulness, and trance-informed practice.

You will learn not only how to play the gong—but how to listen, sense, and respond to the subtle language of the body, the nervous system, and the field itself. You’ll learn a perspective in gong use for nervous system regulation, fascia hydration, brainwave entrainment and so much more.


What You’ll Learn
• The gong as a therapeutic instrument, not a performance tool
• How sound and vibration influence the fascia, vagus nerve, and brainwave states
• Creating safety, containment, and coherence in individual and group sessions
• Guiding journeys through trance, bliss, release, and deep rest
• Skillful use of rhythm, pacing, silence, and restraint
• How to design and facilitate gong sessions with clarity, ethics, and presence


Who This Is For
• Sound healers ready to move beyond technique into mastery
• Yoga, meditation, and somatic practitioners
• Therapists and coaches integrating nervous system–aware tools
• Anyone called to work with sound as medicine, not spectacle


The Experience - 3-Day immersive in person

Expect immersive practice, subtle listening, and profound shifts—not just for those you will serve, but within your own body and awareness. This training is as much about who you are becoming as it is about what you are learning.

You will leave with:
• A refined relationship to sound
• Confidence in holding transformational space
• A grounded, heart-centered approach to gong therapies
• Alignment with a lineage-based, integrity-driven method


This Is the Invitation To slow down.
To listen beneath the sound.
To let vibration do what it has always known how to do.

Sound is not something you use.
It is something you enter.

Boundaries are essential in both personal and professional settings, acting as the invisible lines that define our comfort zones and protect our well-being, mentally, physically, emotionally and energetically.

Yet for many of us we struggle to communicate them, fearful of conflict, rejection, judgement and more, resulting in people pleasing and self abandonment.

For others they are too guarded, determined to control, whether that be the narrative or the whole relationship.

In one of the many transformational modules in The SVMT Method, is the concept of Boundary Bliss! Educating and empowering students to truly understand themselves and their boundaries, which may be needed or may be outdated.

Life is often complicated, but communication shouldn’t be, especially with ourselves….

This episode reveals why stress, and suppression can dehydrate the fascial matrix, why emotional “weather” affects the body’s inner waters, and how movement, breath, and sound help restore fluidity and coherence.

Includes a gentle somatic inquiry and guided meditation to help you sense where your inner river flows freely—and where it longs to return.

Walking the Spiral of Truth and Love — Love is the way. Truth is the path.

Fascia doesn’t respond to force, it responds to safety, rhythm and presence.

So the approach shouldn’t be “How do I release it?” Rather reframed as “What does this system need in this moment?”

Sometimes the answer is heard in subtle vibration.
Sometimes it’s breath.
Sometimes it’s movement.

And sometimes, the most skillful choice, is to wait…

Our Practitioner of Fascia Therapies

Where the Pillars Meet

There was a moment when we stopped teaching techniques
and started listening for what wanted to flow together.

Somatics.
Vibration.
Mindfulness.
Trance-informed awareness.

Each one powerful on its own.
Each one incomplete in isolation.

SVMT was born where these streams meet —
not as a system to follow,
but as a river of methodology.

Somatics brings us home to the body.
Vibration reminds us that everything is movement.
Mindfulness anchors us in presence.
Trance opens the doorway to change that doesn’t require force.

Together, they form something living.

Not rigid.
Not linear.
Not prescriptive.

A river doesn’t tell the water where to go.
It provides a path — and trusts the flow.

This is the heart of the SVMT Method.
Not fixing.
Not forcing.
Not bypassing.

But learning how to walk with the current of transformation
instead of swimming against it.

If this language feels familiar,
if something in your body softens as you read,
you may already know this river.

You don’t need to become someone else.
You’re learning how to return.

Love is the way.
Truth is the path.

Daily Reflection

Grief may visit today as weight, or as absence, or as a tenderness that catches you by surprise. Rather than orienting toward what is missing, sense what is here: the quiet aliveness that has not left.

Allow grief to be felt without reference. No past, no future—just sensation, tone, and breath unfolding now. When experience is met this way, grief is freed from isolation. It becomes part of the living movement of being, not a problem to carry.

Notice how presence does not strain to include sorrow. It simply does. In this natural inclusion, something essential is revealed: nothing real has been broken, even though something beloved has changed form.

Let grief pass through openness.
Let awareness remain unmoved.
Let today be held gently, exactly as it is.

Daily Reflection: Practicing the Pause

There is a small moment where everything can change.

The pause.

Not avoidance—presence.
The breath between stimulus and response.
The space where the nervous system is given a choice.

When life feels fast or overwhelming, the body does what it was designed to do—it protects. This isn’t weakness. It’s survival.

In those moments, the brain isn’t asking What is true?
It’s asking Am I safe?

The pause becomes medicine.

When we slow the breath, soften the body, or lengthen the exhale, we send a message through the nervous system: You are safe enough right now.

That’s when clarity returns.
Not by force—but gently.

The pause doesn’t remove emotion.
It creates space around it.

And practiced over time, these small pauses rewire the brain—teaching the body that not every sensation is an emergency, and choice is always possible.

The pause isn’t wasted time.
It’s where balance is remembered.

Reflection:
Where could a small pause support your nervous system today?

What changes when you treat the pause as care, not delay?

Love is the way. Truth is the path.

Listening to What Is Already Here

There is a wisdom that lives beneath striving— a gentle knowing that doesn’t need to be earned. Breath arrives on its own, faithful, untrained, complete.

The body speaks in seasons and skies,
clear one moment, gathering the next,
never wrong for changing.
Nothing to fix. Nothing to force.

Between one sound and the next,
there is a spaciousness waiting.
Let it speak first.
Let language arrive softly,
like a ripple answering still water.
