"I've worked with Altruce an handful of times the past few years but have really dived in the past couple months. It's been transformative. My self awareness has increased and I've gotten to meet and converse with parts of myself that I've not yet given space to speak. This inner child and parts work is immensely powerful stuff and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Altruce's experience with breath and mindfulness brings calm in moments that can feel overwhelming. Good stuff 👍👍"

Healing from my own complex trauma has been one of the most challenging and rewarding experiences I could imagine. My healing path has moved me from being disconnected, isolated, insufficient, fearful and defensive into a space of deep connection with my Soul Tribe, feeling unconditionally supported with each step of my journey, feeling confident and free to be myself in each moment and a deep sense of purpose and fulfillment each day.
This is why I choose the path of helping others to heal from their trauma, release their limiting beliefs, and work through their self sabotaging behavior patterns.

Over the last 8 years I have studied and practiced many forms of healing work for both myself and others, and in the last 2 I have landed with clarity on how I truly wish to show up as an instrument of healing for others.

✨We will create a 𝐬𝐚𝐟𝐞 and 𝐬𝐚𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐝 container in which 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 of you are 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞

✨ We will work to Identify 𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐟𝐬 that hold you back from moving in the direction of your 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭

✨ We will open dialogue with the parts of you that hold those beliefs, and limiting behavior patterns in order to build new levels of self awareness and self-trust.

✨Use mindfulness, the breath, inquiry and conscious communication to 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞, 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐠𝐨 of the emotional energies which hold these beliefs in place

✨From here we will re-constellate these energy patterns so that they will 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞, instead of hinder, 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐭𝐡

This work is really intended for those who are 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐥𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐢𝐭. Maybe you have some practice with showing up in transparent vulnerability and are ready to take the 𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐬 on your 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡. Or maybe you are 𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩 and working one on one with someone in such a 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐥𝐲 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 way, and yet you feel called in that direction and are building the courage to take the next steps.

In any case... you feel a 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡 and towards a path of service to others... you are opening up to the 𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 that 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 and continuing to clamp down and 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐞 is quickly becoming 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐮𝐧𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞... in fact just thinking about that you might even feel like you are going to burst!

If any of this sounds like you, it would be my highest honor and privilege to walk this path with you. Reach out to set up a free discovery call to see how we may work with one another.

"At first I didn’t know what issue or topic I wanted to work on, but Altruce asked questions that helped to guide me. I found a core wound of not trusting my intuition. It was painful and raw. Altruce was kind and supportive and helped me to feel the feelings around this belief. It was so eye opening! I feel more at peace with this now than ever before. It isn’t as scary to visit this again for more healing. Thank you so much!"

Attachment Styles in Adults. Knowing your attachment style and how it developed can go a very long way in improving the quality of your relationships. When you begin to be aware of your own attachment patterns you can then consciously address them with your partner, friend or loved one so as to come to a deeper understanding of one another and with that, greater compassion and empathy.

Most people will oscillate between styles depending on what relationship it is, how much stress they are experiencing, and other external factors. Which of these resonates most with you? Do you notice yourself in different styles at different times? Like this post and Share in the comments!

Lacking healthy boundaries almost always paralells co-dependant relationship patterns. When one can not set and maintain boundaries in relationships it is most often an unconscoius mechanism that protects a wounded inner child who’s voice wasn’t honored, whose needs were not met and who was actively shamed simply for existing and having desires. This inner child may feel worthless, grief ridden, frightened and in dire need of attention.

Further it is an attempt to continue getting love, approval and connection with the other. The shadow of this surface level agreeable behavior is the building resentment which festers inside each time a person dishonors their own boundaries by not speaking up and self advocating i.e. feeling taken advantage of and projecting that onto the other when they simply act in their truth. To further compound that this continual lack of self advocation can breed another layer of shame “I should be able to take care of myself! Why do I keep doing this?! Haven’t I learned by now?” on top of the pain that is already present.

To develop healthy boundaries one must find a way to safely contact that wounded inner child so that they may be witnessed in all of their needs, desires and pain. One must let themselves feel this pain fully so that the inner child may be unburnded of it, and it’s protector energies may then transform into a role of asserting healthy boundaries rather than people pleasing.

Healing takes time, patience and persistence. It is not and never will be a one and done deal. You may gain insight on an issue you have and work with it for awhile and feel like you've gotten past it just to have that same issue crop up with a different mask on 6 months or a year later. Stay with it. A lot of this originated while you were still in the womb(or even before then!) and you've carried it your entire existence until now. Patience and self-compassion are the essential foundation on which this process is made possible and they are what make it possible to eventually land in surrender and actually begin to "trust the process". Be easy and keep going.

New Workshop Announcement!!

Register through link in Bio!

Michelle Elizabeth( )and I have been cooking up this workshop for the last month and we are super excited to finally get to announce it!

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐩 is to provide a safe container in which participants may feel empowered to take ownership of their shadow aspects and begin to befriend, embody and discover the medicine powers within them. You can expect to learn a variety of tools that can be utilized to heal the nervous system and develop awareness of your mental, emotional and spiritual aspects that may not be working in alignment with your highest good. Through group and individual exercises, guided meditations, journaling prompts, a dedicated Facebook Group, open hearted shares and live facilitation, we will support one another in the work of re-integrating those parts into a state of harmony with the whole system.
𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐩 𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐢𝐟…
~You are a sincere, growth oriented spiritual seeker who is looking to take the next steps in deepening your relationship with yourself and the world around you
~You are tired to trying to vision board, affirm and manifest your way to healing and wholeness
~You are craving community support and a safe space in which you can be your most vulnerable and authentic self
~You are ready to make peace with the parts of you that seem to work against you, and discover the wisdom and power with which they can serve your highest growth.
We are incredibly excited to bring you this workshop stacked with the tools and practices necessary to deepen your relationship with yourself, expand your capacity for presence and compassion for all beings, and integrate the self sabotaging aspects that hold you back from Soul Integration and Embodiment.

Whenever I notice myself feeling EXCITEMENT about an idea there are a few things that I know about that idea... 1. I know that I can trust that Idea as something that will lead me closer to living a full and fufilling life of Love and Impact.
2. That thing is intrinsically tied to my soul's purpose.
3. That thing is TOTALLY possible. Excitement is an emotion that emmanates from the deepest depths of our soul and our Soul is the single most powerful point of attraction and manifestation we have. The more we learn to put our faith in it the more it will guide us to our highest callings and the less anything outside of us is able to get in the way.
4.Any fear based thinking of not having/being/doing enough in this current present moment that acts as "reasoning" why that thing is impossible, out of reach, or otherwise "not for me" is exactly that, fear based thinking, and NOTHING more. It is old belief systems and parental/societal conditioning and when I put my faith in my soul's EXCITEMENT rather than these old thought patterns, I create new pathways through which these limiting beliefs can be burned away.
5. I know that ultimately the thing might not turn out how my mind imagined it would and my very willingness to follow my excitement has brought me closer to an embodied experience of my own innate wholeness, completeness and INNER fufillment.
6. What I'm really trying to say is that NOTHING can stand in the way of my power to manifest reality according to the blueprint of my soul.
So with that. I am commited to always following my excitement, to remain steady with the faith that this excitement is the way shower which reveals the thread I am to follow to the fufillment of my highest calling. I am commited to this internal compass above all outside distractions and attempts to derail me from my center point.
Today I am grateful for all beings, light and dark, faith and doubt. I am grateful for the full spectrum which shows me exactly where the center line is and is always pointing me back inwards to myself. My eyes, my ears my heart, my mind and my body are all open, receptive and willing to be vessels of Divine Will. I am here. A'ho. 🌈💫⭐🦋💚🙏

DAY FORTY

Well. I did it. 40 consecutive days of yoga practice either asana or meditation or both.

I have experienced a lot of growth in this time. I've learned what it means to stay commited. I stepped away from purely social activities so that I could focus on myself and what I want to create. I have tapped into a much deeper space of surrender and acceptance. My sense of personal boundaries has solidified and my "No" and "yes" have truthified. I notice that I am much more present and attentive to myself and those around me. I am speaking more transparently, vulnerably and authentically. I ask for what I want. I know my value. I attract other people who know their value, have boundaries and are consciously creating their lives. I know myself and what I offer. I feel alive, awake and aware.

Surely my practice will continue and I am super happy to not feel like I HAVE to post to IG about it anymore. I hope the content I put out when I do will be of a higher quality and intention.

Thanks for all the support and encouragement alony the way! I had to start over at 19 days and I am super happy that didn't happen again. I am grateful to those who came to practice with me and those who expressed being inspired by my dedication to this challenge.

Basically,
I am Love and so are you. Bless you🧘‍♂️🕉💚🙌🙏

Tara has been making her way into my life recently. A female bodhisattva, Tara appears in Buddhism, Jainism, and particularly, Tibetan Lamaism, as a complex array of manifestations: goddess of ascetism and mysticism, mother creator, protectress of all humans as they cross the sea of life.

She is showing up for me right now during a time of deep listening and receptivity. I am choosing to do far less and as such I have been receiving far more. I am humbled by this feminine archetype who knows each step I am to take and who lovingly guides me with strength and grace along my path.

I pray that I will always be willing to follow her guidance above any doubt or confusion that the mind may have in response. I pray that her wisdom may fill me up and spill over to affect those around me in the highest way. I give thanks for how far she has brought me and for all of the beauty and wonder she has yet to reveal to me. 🧘‍♂️💚🙏

So dig deep inside
And unearth your light
We'd all love to see you shine

Your heart is the key
Look in there and you'll see
That which keeps you feeling high

Let it all out
Stand tall stand proud
It is your divine birth rite

Find your voice
Through the white noise
Spread your wings and fly
