During meditation I was invited to the wise women’s GLOBAL GOOD council fire.
I’m Christel Arcucci. You’re listening to the Embody Wealthy Podcast. The lightning path for spiritual women and empaths to quit people-pleasing, reclaim power, and create a pleasure-led legacy of sensual and financial freedom..
The Global Good Council represents every race, age, religion, nationality and sexual preference. The council focuses on aligning humanity with the greatest potential of life on Earth.
The council embraced me with the power of ease, confidence and certainty that all voices will be heard, honored and integrated into the Global Good Vision we are co-creating.
Each woman welcomed & embraced me, calling me sister, mother, daughter, lover & friend. I wept, received and opened with each touch, word and connection.
They assured me, “all is well daughter, keep the faith.”
Let’s take a journey and sit around the council fire to align our energy, attention and focus onto the timeline for the Global Good of all life on Earth and humanity awakening soul purpose in who we are and what we do in all ways and always.

What is the most important skill to quit people-pleasing and reclaim your power? Learn to only say yes, when it’s a full heart opening yes and speak your true heart-centered no.

What is the most important skill to quit people-pleasing and reclaim your power? Learn to only say yes, when it’s a full heart opening yes and speak your heart-centered no.
Why is a real yes and heart opening?
How can a true no be heart-centered?
When you only share you authentic yes and no the person you’re connected with has a chance of actually connecting with you, not the person that you’ve been conditioned to be.
Healthy people want the real you and a heart-to-heart connection which includes conflict.
Unhealthy people want you to keep people-pleasing and over-giving, the hard news is your brains wants what is familiar…
So let’s take a journey and reset this pattern and clear the path for hear-centered and secure expression of your yes and no.

What if the heart of forgiveness is centered in self-forgiveness?
I’m Christel Arcucci. You’re listening to the Embody Wealthy Podcast. The lightning path for spiritual women over 40 to quit people-pleasing, reclaim power, and create a pleasure-led legacy without apology.
I’m not a huge fan of clickbait type titles like this one, “The most powerful forgiveness tool.” I resist this type of hype yet, this is the most authentic and true title for this episode because there is no other tool that is even in the category of power for forgiveness in my experience.
Being able to release events, trauma, and conflicts with people that remain locked and blocked in our mind, body and psyche.
The tool that I am speaking about is the Hawaiian prayer called Ho’Oponopono. It is a simple four sentence prayer that is repeated over and over and over. My understanding of the four lines can be used in any order.
I love you. I’m sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you.
Sometimes I also say: I’m sorry. Please forgive me. I love you. Thank you

WARNING: This episode contains explicit sexual language and heavy breathing = ENJOY! 😉
Let’s untangle loving and people-pleasing. Love at its core contains fierce truth. People-pleasing is accommodating and bending who you are to keep someone else comfortable. Empowered relationships seek the true power of unconditional love, which is a fire that burns and transforms our immature and limited selves into the highest version of yourself.
I’m Christel Arcucci. You’re listening to the Embody Wealthy Podcast. The lightning path for women and empaths to quit people-pleasing, reclaim power, and create a pleasure-led legacy without apology.
As we move into the state of tapping in to your desire, allow your body to move if that is delicious for you. Allow yourself to sound and breathe as we awaken your desire, moving more deeply into a deep, deep state of permission allowance. And celebration of who you are now.
Moving deep, deep, deep into the cauldron of your desire to the power of your fire. To clear the pathway for what you want and for your wanting.
There are so many wounds, especially for women around wanting and desire that it takes practice to allow yourself to want.
To discover your wanting, your desire, to ask for your desire, to receive what you want and to enjoy receiving it.
Permission is clearing the pathway as you give yourself permission, as you open, allow as you command and receive.
Your desire comes so easily.
Not without challenges, but with a deep clarity in your body of knowing your truth, unapologetically receiving.
Unapologetically standing in your power, you can see yourself in power.
Grounded, clear, confident, loving.
Oh yes. And let’s take a moment to untangle loving and people-pleasing.
Love at its core contains fierce truth. People-pleasing is accommodating. And bending who you are to keep someone else comfortable
In empowered relationships, everyone is seeking the true power of unconditional love, which is a fire that burns and transforms our immature and limited selves into the highest version.
Oh,feeling this clearing pathways in your body, in your mind. In your emotional body, your mental body. Clearing, clearing, clearing.
Allowing yourself to feel the turn on of evolutionary empowered style of relating with other humans and with yourself and with nature, animals, minerals, plants, and your soul.
Who you are as an infinite soul being loves with fierce truth, with deep kindness and compassion.
Fierce truth is the core of unconditional love, and you have the gift of deep compassion, empathy. Sensitivity.
Seeing yourself standing now in your power on the earth with the sword of fierce truth and with the deep loving of compassionate, understanding and connection.
This warrioress, like Durga, standing for truth and fighting for the highest good. She is within you.
She is You and each day you are building confidence in who you are now as a protector and guide of nature, regenerative and sustainable connection to Mother Earth.
Deep connection with humanity, shadow and light.
Oh, and your power, your ability to face the collective shadow, your own shadow, and to be a guide to integrate and weaves together the madness of humanity with the power and potential of awakening, greater love, greater alignment, deeper connection, beautiful expression and embodied creativity.
Oh, yes, yes. Yes, and you see and feel yourself moving upon the earth as this empowered woman weaving shadow and light everywhere you go.
Repairing the healing grid everywhere you are because your presence, your divine presence, and willingness to embrace your messy humanness, your divine presence, and your embodied human messiness are woven together, dancing together with every breath more powerfully.
When you release resistance, when you fully allow the great power of your emotional body, your emotional body has been made wrong by so many and by yourself.
The great waters of your humanity. Yes, they. Destroy. Yes, the power of water can destroy. Yet it is also the power that brings life, the power of water to bring life. You hold this great wisdom, this great power, and in this place and time, you can see and feel the beauty that you hold to create and destroy woven together.
Releasing fear, doubt, concern.
All of the elements, just like all of you. Everything you are, everything you have. Is beautiful even when it’s ugly.
Yes, yes, yes. This great paradox and challenge of being human, your divine self knows its beauty, chose the messiness of being. Delighted in coming here and wrestling, entangling and tumbling, and forgetting to be expressed.
Your divine self came here to be expressed as light, as shadow, as creation, as destruction, as dark, as light as night and day.
In your confidence, when you feel powerful and your devastation when you feel lost.
All of it, all of you your entire life path. Every single choice, ah, is power, pure power,
As often as you can release resistance. As much as you can be riding the currents of the elements, creating and dissolving, manifesting and releasing.
Wherever you find yourself, you are always connected to Mother Earth. Attending to her, serving her, learning her ways, learning how to support humanity and being human more gracefully with less resistance.
Inhaling And exhaling with the pulsation of life.
Receiving and releasing.
Inhaling and exhaling in each moment.
Supported by the power of mind. Noticing when the power of mind is trying to override
What is, what is. What is, what is, is the greatest access and gateway to your power.
Here and now. Inhale and exhale here and now inhale and exhale here and now.
Receiving, releasing. Receiving offering, untangling the tangle that humanity has perpetuated, that continues to struggle with being pulled into the past, pushed into the future, doubting.
Pulling you out of your power of her and Now.
Right now is the point of your creation. Recognizing when you are pushed into the past or pulled into the future and anchoring yourself back in your pleasure.
Back in your power of now, back in your aliveness.
Aliveness includes pain, aliveness includes contraction. Aliveness is challenging.
Feeling the aliveness of now even the things you want to push out of now, breathe it. Feel it. Feel the desire to push or pull, to resist, to fight. Feel the tangle. The wrestling of your humanity, wanting everything to be perfect. That is stress. That is conditioning.
Your divinity knows.
Your divinity delights in being lost, being confused, fighting ‘what is.’
Divinity delights in it. The divine play of being.
How can you enjoy it? To laugh at your human struggles, to laugh at your resistance to pain, to breathe into your fight against what is.
What is.
What you are.
Who you are in this moment is your point of power.
The pain, the struggle, the confusion, the clarity. All of it.
Your power is not just when you are feeling good, your power rests in feeling the power of all of it. Feel it now in your belly. In your heart, in your fingertips, feel your aliveness, your willingness, your openness, your great sensitivity, your big emotions are your access point.
One of the ways that you can ride. The current of life force, and yes, sometimes it smashes you to the ground.
Letting that be, letting yourself be smashed, reorganizing yourself, breathing life force into when you have been smashed. Feeling how life force moves, then it’s still moving.
Life is breathing you. Your divine power is you breathing in, breathing out. You don’t even have to try to be aligned with life. It is you. It is moving you
Resistance to ‘what is’ thinking it should be something it’s not, is still part of it, yet it creates suffering.
You can surrender the suffering simply by feeling how life force is moving you, is moving through you, what the life force that is your desires in each moment.
Pleasure is always stalking, pain like a wildcat, circling, trying to seduce the pain and to breathing, trying to seduce the pain into allow. Trying to seduce the pain into failing the tightness, the resistance. Let it move you. Let life move you, even when somebody thinks you’re too loud, too noisy, too emotional, too crazy, too demanding.
Like you’ve lost your mind. Let life move you. Let life Force have you.
Yes, the divine Marriage is with life.
Not pleasing people, even yourself, letting life force have you have its way with you and sometimes yes, it fucks you. That too.
Hmm. Yes. Opening this body vessel, opening this mind, opening your emotions to your life force. Every moment life force has the answer to what do I desire?
You are a life force.
You are life.
Your desire is the access point to your power here and now letting it have you, letting it have its way with your life to create, to co-create, to receive, to gift you beyond. beyond, so far, beyond what you can imagine.
You are that powerful. Anything you can imagine, everything you can imagine, not without struggle, not without challenge, not without contraction, not without pain, not without confrontation. Yet, if you let the life force turn you on, you will navigate the heartbreak with clarity that it is chosen.
This is the point of this divine, human, messy gift you are.
And when people-pleasing comes and tries to strangle you or shut you down.
Allow yourself to have fun. “Oh, people-pleasing. Mm. I love it when you choke me. I love it when you fuck me. Oh, yes. Try to make me shut up. Put your hand over my mouth. Fuck me harder. Yes. Oh, people pleasing. Bend me over. Take me, take me. Oh, yes. I love it when you try to mold me into what you want. Yes. Yes, like that. Oh, it feels good. Oh, yes. Oh, yes. Mm Yes. People pleasing. Oh, you turned me on. You fucked me so well. I love it when you choke me. Oh, and I love the look on your face when I open my mouth and roar my desires. I love seeing how horrified you are when I stand up with my unapologetic truth. Yes, yes, yes. Oh dear. People-pleasing. I know. I know you’re trying to protect me. I know you’re trying to keep me safe and sometimes I will let you fuck me when it’s how I want. But now, now, no. Now, dear people, pleaser, you are going to become my protect. Helping me to see when something is out of alignment, helping me to see when I’m afraid of my own power, helping me to see when I’m afraid of speaking truth, the sword of truth, the sword of truth.
The sword of truth holds great compassion. It cuts away the way we lie to ourselves, the sword of truth. That is what you are. People-pleaser. You are the sword of truth. Learning to use the sword with compassion and the greatest love,the sword of truth is the greatest love embodied love.”
I allow myself to learn to skillfully, compassionately, use the sword of truth like Ma Durga, fighting for love and truth, knowing that sometimes. The sword of truth will destroy.
Destruction clears the way for new life. Breathe, breathing in, breathing out, receiving really. Creating, destroying, opening, letting go. Expansion and contraction is the pulsation of life. I trust the pulsation of life.
Life force energy, the divine gift of creation. I trust you. I trust me.
And gently beginning to move your fingers and toes.
Bringing yourself gently back into the room that you’re in, easily opening your eyes to notice the light, the colors weaving together. This journey with your life, with your eyes open, receiving, releasing, you are life force.
You are the divine power of creation.
You trust yourself more deeply. You are learning to wield the sword of truth more gracefully, creating, destroying, inhaling, exhaling, expanding, contracting. Life force moves you, is you and loves you in your human messiness.Can you learn to love all of you with the same kind, compassion and fierce truth.
It’s a pleasure to co-create and embody wealthy with you.

How do I want to express this channel of life force energy? Making that your practice will make your life your greatest masterpiece.
I’m Christel Arcucci. You’re listening to the Embody Wealthy Podcast. The lightning path for women and empaths to quit people, pleasing, reclaim power and create a pleasure-led legacy without apology
I am so delighted that you are here. Our work together today is a combination, embodiment practice sensual hypnosis and Akashic recode. Even if you don’t know what those words mean, ideally you will feel it in your body.
This session is an invitation for you to go deeper into your physical, mental, emotional experience. Allowing sound to move through your body, allowing your body to move, it can be in subtle ways, or it can be bigger movements.
Allow life force energy to move through you as. Each one of us holds incredible power in the movement of our body, in our being, in our sound, and in our breath.
This practice is meant to support you in feeling moving, sounding breathing, becoming more powerfully embodied in who you are, in your purpose and living your purpose.
You can keep your eyes closed or keep your eyes open. You can move in big ways or you can move in subtle ways. Tuning in and listening to the inspiration of how this work lands in your system.
We are recording this in January of 2023, we are in the third week of January, just past the Lunar New Year. Yet, this invitation applies to any day of the week, any part of the lunar cycle, any part of the year is feeling how the momentum of culture and of your life is moving in you and through you.
How can you land in your present moment experience to feel what you feel?
Notice sensations and to not resist what is happening.
There is so much momentum in the dominant culture. We can’t avoid that yet we can choose what we do with that energy, with that momentum, it can run us ragged. Or it can be fuel for building our purpose for aligning our souls with our human selves.
We’re gonna move through a series of sounds to help enliven your body to help settle your mind.
Again, as you sound and breathe, allow your body to move as you are inspired.
Then listening and feeling your breath. You can continue to sound or simply feel the sound as your breath moves in, as your breath moves out.
Present moment awareness. It sounds so simple. Yet is not easy to practice, and I find the gateways of breath, movement and sound help to integrate the mind into the heart, into the body, into the experience of the present moment and from the present moment.
Is our greatest power to create, to decide who am I in this moment?
What am I creating in this moment?
And so often when we get stuck in overwhelm or procrastination, it’s because the mind is on overdrive and is disconnected from our physical, mental, emotional experience.
These three practices of breath, movement and sound help to integrate because it’s not that the mind is bad, it is one of our superpowers.
Yet, how do we integrate the mind’s power into our physical experience? Then step into the flow of the momentum, the flow of the life force that is present in our life.
This great power of listening to first what you feel, what is happening outside of you in the dominant culture is going to impact you.
How can we, feel what we feel, feel the collective, yet consciously direct our power of creation. Because if there is incredible momentum because of a world event, this momentous happening, if I try to be like, no, it’s not happening. I’m not impacted, then I’m in resistance to the flow of life force.
If I can feel the impact of a life, of a cultural, of a world event, and I can feel it, move it, breathe it, be it, express it through my system, whether that be. Dancing, shouting, screaming, crying, moving the energy, allowing the life force to move me to be expressed through me. Once I have integrated the impact of the cultural momentum, then I personally get to consciously choose how I create with that power.
Learning to not resist is a challenge part of it is.
If I feel the resistance, no, I don’t want this. I had this plan today was the day I was supposed to be recording and this thing happened in the outside world and now everybody is freaking out and I’m freaking out and no, no, no, no. Part of it is to feel that, no, to express it, to throw a little temper tantrum.
Emotionally, physically, energetically move the energy and find what happens next.
Because most often what happens next, especially for women and empaths, is we get overloaded and we shut down, and then we don’t move. We feel paralyzed and unable to move. yet, if we create a container for ourselves, and it can be again, big and outrageous and loud if you’re in a private space, but it also can be humming inside.
It can be making fists and opening your hands under the table, uf you’re in a meeting, it can be more consciously breathing, which of course nobody’s gonna be upset that you’re doing.
Finding the way, giving yourself the permission to feel the momentum of the collective, to also learn to express it in a way that gives us access to the life force.
What is life inviting me to do with this energy?
Sometimes that is shut down and that’s okay. Lay under the covers and moan, “oh, don’t touch me.”
Allowing yourself to playfully express with your physical body, with your words, with your sound, with your breath.
It opens access to life force energy.
It opens access to momentum.
I like to think about performing artists that I admire that especially use their bodies, their breath, their sound. What I admire about them is how big their expression is, and that includes costumes and makeup and, and full expression. they’re really too much.
Giving ourselves permission to make our life our stage to make our bodies our masterpiece, to learn how to express how life force wants to move through you, as you, as your wisdom teachings, as your beautiful, powerful expression.
And that begins in safe and sacred spaces like this.
Even if you are listening to the recording, you can feel the energetic space I am making with my voice, with my sound, with my movement, and so practicing privately is the place where you build your muscles, you build your confidence of expression, of feeling life force energy, of feeling the dominant stream and deciding what you want to do with that energy, which is where great, incredible creative power lives.
What do I want to do with the invitation of what’s happening in the collective move, express, breathe feel?
In doing that, you feel the invitation from the inside out, but when the noise from the outside is so loud, is so great, is so overwhelming, and we’re used to just getting swept away by the current of dominant culture, yes, it will impact you.
Allow it to move you, allow it to inspire you, allow it to devastate you. That’s part of what we signed up for in being human. Yet when we don’t resist, when we allow, when we practice moving all kinds of flavors of life force energy, when we practice emotional alchemy, how does rage feel in my body?
Ooh, rage? That is so taboo, especially for women in empaths. Yet, when you practice this daily, what does anger feel like in my system right now?
How does it want to be expressed?
It gives us access to the other end of the spectrum, right?
Because if we don’t practice, we have a very narrow place to live, which is generally people pleasing, which is generally very small and acceptable.
If you think of your favorite performing artists, their range is enormous. Their expression is larger than life.
And that is what I want for you to gently play at the edges of your spectrum, to build your confidence, to build your expression, to build your ability to feel life.
To feel life, all of it. The amazing and the devastating.
See how it wants to move you, to allow it to move you through your breath, your sound, your movement, your writing, your speaking, your parenting, your friendships, right? In every way.
How does life want to move you?
And that practice of bringing purpose, which can be this enormous question of what is my purpose? Am I doing my purpose?
In my opinion, purpose is rooted in who am I being?
What am I doing today? T
hat it isn’t some far off distant experience of whenever I achieve whatever, blah, blah, blah, then I will be living my purpose.
To me, purpose is being and doing in the moment, who am I being?
What am I doing, and do I wanna keep doing that?
And giving ourselves permission to be expressive, to be moved by life, right?
This isn’t about shutting out what’s happening in the outside world. It’s about being moved by what is happening in the outside world, and deciding what to create going forward.
I cannot shut off what is happening in the world. And we all know this, especially because of the last three years, how deeply connected we are and how deeply impacted we are by what is happening on a global scale. So feeling that impact, yet not fighting it, allowing listening, tuning in, deciding.
To use the creative life force energy because that’s what it is.
Feeling devastated is a channel of life force energy, and in my experience and opinion, the more people who are authentically feeling being moved and consciously creating life, the better time we will have as humans because there is no way of avoiding the hard things that will happen to us as humans, to each of us individually, to our loved ones, and obviously to the collective.
So our ability to practice daily feeling, expressing, moving, movement, breath and sound as your practices in private, and then bringing them out into the world.
How can I be More of who I want to be in my everyday interactions?
How can I embody love and divine play in everyone I interact with?
For me, those are my intentions, embodied love and divine play.
How does embodied love and divine play interact with the plumber who’s fixing the plumbing or the postal worker?
Or the person on the freeway that’s annoying me.?And let me tell you that one is not easy for me, but allowing feeling if I’m driving and I feel the frustration is, feel the frustration, allow it to move me so it doesn’t stagnate in my system and slow me down.
We are allowed to feel rage. We are allowed to feel love, right?
If we limit feeling anger or devastation or sadness, we limit how much we can love our lives and each other and ourselves. So if you want to feel more of the good feelings, you have to cultivate your ability to feel the hard ones.
How did they move you?
How did they express you?
It’s moving outside of that narrow space that we’re allowed to feel and express. It’s pushing those edges, pushing those edges, and eventually setting the box down completely to be more fully expressed as you to be and do what you are here to do.
Each day being and doing, you, breathing, moving, sounding aligned with your soul, calling in small ways every day, and then bringing that to the world.
And as you do that, as you give yourself permission and push back those limitations that we have accepted cultural and globally.
As we push them back, you being and doing yourself more fully gives permission for other people to do the same. They will be inspired seeing you.
Will there be those people that try to confine and contain? Oh yes.
You get to decide life is moving me. I am alive. What a miracle.
How does life want to move through me, as me today in this challenge and in this ecstasy making more space?
And that starts with our private practices and the permission we give ourselves, because that’s where. It starts is me giving me permission to be a too much woman, too intense, too emotional, too loud, too bossy, too boisterous to this, to that, to whatever.
And at the same time, culture tells us you’re too much and not enough at the same time. That is the edges that were pushed in. noticing those places and times when the inner critic, the inner police is telling you you’re too much or not enough, and deciding hmm to play naughty.
To give yourself permission to push back the edges of the box to create your life consciously.
Through how you breathe, how you move, how you sound, how you dress, how you express, who you connect with, how you do it.
That is the momentum that we are fueling creative life force. How is it moving me? How is it inspiring me to be today to create the world that I want to live?
And it has to start from the inside out and working both from the inside out and the outside in. As we give ourselves permission, we give each other permission.
Cheering for others, right? That’s part of giving others permission when you see them dressed wildly or expressing fully, is to reach your hands up and cheer for them to say, yes, I see you. I celebrate you. I support your wildness.
That is how we create a dominant stream. A dominant culture that is celebrating soul expression, that is celebrating healing, that is aligning with nature and isn’t fighting it and only serving a few. That is how we create it, is as a community, supporting ourselves, supporting each other in feeling moving, breathing.
How intense it is to be human. It’s intense.
Oh, and as you allow yourself to be like it is hard and horrible and also incredibly hot, how can I be turned on? By the intensity, because honestly, I believe on a soul level, our souls are like, this is amazing. This place called Earth, this embodiment thing, this body that I’m in, like, wow, it’s incredible.
Ok. Some sad thing happened. Great. We get to cry. Wow. Really, that is why we came. Our infinite souls were like, I want to be expressed as a human, not just the happiness, but the hard stuff, the heartbreak, because that’s what living on Earth is.
That’s the invitation. Oh, hmm. Yes. So moving, breathing, sounding, noticing how the impact of my words, my sound feels in your system.
Do you feel alive?
Do you feel afraid?
Do you feel turned on?
Do you feel concerned?
Feel all of it. Feel as much as you can allowing it.
Feeling the many things cuz most often were thinking and feeling many things. Allowing that, how does it want to move through me as me?
How do I want to express this flavor, this channel of life force energy making that your practice little by little by little and then you’ll make your life your masterpiece.
Feeling how life is moving you, allowing it to move through you as you, and creating, co-creating the life that you desire, the world that you desire. Hmm.
Give yourself permission to breathe, move and sound, to allow life to move through you and to choose how you are creating who you are co-creating with and tuning in to the momentum of Life Force Energy.
It’s a pleasure to co-create and embody wealthy with you.

You’re listening to the Embody Wealthy Podcast. The lightning path for women and empaths to quit people-pleasing, reclaim power, and create a pleasure-led legacy without apology.
by Christel | Jan 25, 2023 | Podcast
I received a Wisdom bomb in meditation this morning that I want to share with you about Embodied Presence.
I’m Christel Arcucci. You’re listening to the Embody Wealthy Podcast. The lightning path for women and empaths to quit people-pleasing, reclaim power, and create a pleasure-led legacy without apology.
I am turning 50 in a few days and part of my mind thinks that I’m late and I’m not where I should be based on whatever external blah blah blah.
2022 my focus was to be in the present as much as possible and to live my legacy everyday so that if it was my last day on Earth I would feel good about who I was, how I spent my time and the impact I made each day.
The lighting bolt in meditation distilled what I learned into 8 words.
A calm and confident voice said, “You cannot be late for the present moment.”
The thought and feeling that I am late is a stress response which means I am in my head and not in my body or likely breathing fully.
Thinking I am late and not where I “should be” or that I should be somewhere that I’m not means I’m stressed and NOT IN THE PRESENT.
Deep and relaxed belly breath, feel your hips, toes, crown and finger tips and fill inside-outside with a full gentle breath.
“You cannot be late for the present moment.”
In an instant I felt that I’m in the right spot and I’m being me and doing my life journey perfectly.
That lightning bolt of recognition that my mind is the one, the wounding or the trauma patterns, or the emotional addiction habit is the one that says that I’m late and it’s a signal that I am not here, right here, right now.
You cannot be late for the present moment.
This simple and powerful revelation. I hope it lands for you in the way that it landed for me.
So let’s explore this even deeper with some sound, breath and hypnotrance. Letting you drop even deeper into your body. Feel your breath moving.
Notice the thoughts in your mind are most often what takes you out of the present moment. A state of feeling stressed, pulled into the past or pushed into the future. Either way is not anchored in the sensations of your body.
So let this breath be a sensual experience.
Oh, letting sound move out with your breath. Allow gentle movement of your spine, without forcing, moving your fingers, toes, wrists, ankles, allowing your breath to move your body.
Then moving into sounds, continue to allow your body to move gently without forcing.
Sound and notice the movement that is inspired by this sound.
Noticing any thoughts, notice any resistance.
Notice what your mind thinks.
Notice if your mind wonders if anybody can hear.
Notice if your mind has judgment about my sounds and my breath.
The present moment is alive with expression, and when we are fully anchored in the present moment, the mind is so focused on experiencing it doesn’t care about what happened or what might happen.
Yet our minds have been conditioned, trained to hook into the past or the future, and to avoid the present yet when we can move the mind into the body, into the breath, into the free expression of sound movement and breath the mind moves into alignment and in service to your soul expression.
You are welcome to sound like I sound or let my sound be an inspiration for you, let yourself explore the freedom of sound knowing that the freedom of sound, breath, and movement sounds so simple. It seems so easy. It seems natural. Mm. Yet it’s been conditioned into us to self monitor, to self-police ourselves and others.
Letting yourself explore the sounds. Mm. Oh, ah, sssss, rrrrrrrr
Notice how each sound feels, what movement each sound inspires, and where you bump up against resistance.
Resistance can look like distraction. Resistance can look like discomfort in your body, in your throat,
or in your mind.
The inner protector. Mmm. Also called the inner critic. The inner saboteur. It is designed to keep you safe, and what is safe is what is familiar, gentle practices at your edge, at the edge of your comfort zone. Allowing yourself to sound and breathe and move. Mm, whenever and wherever you can.
I am currently living in a home that has the most psychic and sound freedom of anywhere I have ever lived. The person that lives nearest to me is minimum 50 yards away, and she’s also mostly deaf. So even if she was standing outside my door, it’s unlikely she could hear me sounding yet my mind is so used to limiting me, my sound, my breath, my movement that I have to consciously choose expression to consciously work at the edge of my comfort zone, expanding the sound, the volume, the texture.
Oh, and especially pleasure sounds, are so taboo. Why?
Why are pleasure sounds so taboo coming from my lips? Oh, oh, oh.
Because our culture is so uncomfortable with my pleasure. A woman in her pleasure owns her power and her presence is unstoppable. Hmm and that disrupts the status quo. That yes, that is what you’re up against. Thousands of years of control and confinement.
So allowing a pleasure sound to escape your lips is an act of rebellion.
How much can you allow yourself?
How much can you allow yourself to rebel against your own mind, against the culture that tells you that you’re too much, that you should be quiet and tone it down, but why? But why?
I think of the performing artists that I most admire, especially the artists that use their body, their breath, their voice as their main vehicle of art.
They are celebrated for not being confined or contained. I mean, of course there are people that don’t like them, but in general, they are celebrated for their soul expression.
You are learning to use the medium of your body, your breath, your movement, your sound as your main vehicle of your soul expression.
Yes, yes, yes. And it starts with little ways and little places where you allow yourself to play, to play in your body, to play with your pleasure, to play with your sound, to play with your breath, and see what happens. Hmm.
I invite you to be gentle. To play in spaces that you feel safe pushing your comfort zone, ah, and to go to places where you can allow your voice to ROAR in your car.
Driving alone is a fantastic place, on a windy day, high on a ridge or a cliff where only the wind can hear you. Hmm.
In your shower, while you’re using your products to cleanse and clean your body, can you allow yourself to Hmm hmm?
Even with your lips, closed, allowing the sound to vibrate within your body.
Oh yes, yes, yes. In little ways, small steps. Little actions each day help you grow in confidence to anchor yourself in what your life force, what the creative power that is moving through you right now wants to say.
It takes an incredible amount of courage and bravery to express the power of your soul. Yet it’s what the world most needs from you, and it can be scary.
Yes, yes, yes. And even naming that, saying that I feel scared. What if somebody hears me?
And allowing yourself to make those small sound.
“I think I need to hide.
What if somebody hears me?
It’s so forbidden.
I’m so scared.?
That too.
Gives you more room to play. To play. To play. Be curious. Explore your innocence. Allow yourself space to be to be in the present moment.
What is the present moment inviting you to be?
To do, to explore, to express, oh yes.
Each small action makes a difference.
Each little exploration gives you strength to explore your soul and yourself in the present.
The present moment is where your greatest power of creation lives.
Oh, yes.
And when your mind tells you that you are late, that you’re not where you should be. You’re not who you should be.
Recognize the breath, the sound, the gentle movement can bring you into present moment awareness to recognize the mind is the one that says you’re late.
The mind is the one that keeps you out of your present moment power.
Yes, yes, yes. Hmm. And gently breathing, more rhythmically, humming inside. Allowing the movement of your breath hmm, to awaken your body and open your eyes if they’re closed. Begin to take notice what’s around in the room that you’re in.
The light, the colors, the textures, anchoring yourself in present moment awareness.
And see how much you can play today with your movement, your breath, and your sound.
How does this wisdom land in your body?
It’s a pleasure to co-create and embody wealthy with you.

You’re listening to the Embody Wealthy Podcast. The lightning path for women and empaths to quit people-pleasing, reclaim power, and create a pleasure-led legacy without apology.
by Christel | Dec 31, 2022 | Podcast
Do you believe a fear or a vow from a past life can slow you down of stop you from living your purpose is this life?
I’m Christel Arcucci. You’re listening to the Embody Wealthy Podcast. The lightning path for women and empaths to quit people-pleasing, reclaim power, and create a pleasure-led legacy without apology.
It’s 2013 and I stand with quiet strength in a room full of heart-centered women entrepreneurs. We have gathered for a two-day transformational business mastermind. I am at the front of the room in the “hot seat,” while my colleagues sit comfortably on couches in an elegant, comfortable setting.
“What will happen if you are visible? What will happen if the world sees your full power? Don’t think ― just answer,” my mentor commands.
“I will be killed.”
I stand between worlds with one foot in present time and the other in a past life. A woman in the room gasps and tears stream down my cheeks. I speak of being burned at the stake as empowered woman and healer.
“I am no longer afraid of being killed because I know that my essence, my soul cannot be destroyed. They tortured and killed the community of women healers that I led. They made me watch as each one of my soul sisters died. I begged for them to spare my sisters and just kill me. I died with every woman before they destroyed my body. I made a vow that I would never again put the lives of my sisters in jeopardy. I committed to traveling alone: When they find and kill me the next time, no one else will die because of me.”
My heart breaks open as the scene unfolds in vivid detail. Both my present reality and my past life as revolutionary leader are so tangible, and powerfully connected. I don’t have proof that I have lived other lives, yet this vision forces me to resolve this past-life saga in this very lucid moment of now.
I want to crumble, to give up and disappear. My shadow, that part of me I have been unwilling ― unable ― to embrace, is demanding that I recognize its power. I have spent years hiding and suppressing the magnitude of the love, fear, and power inside me. I am keenly aware of the great potential that lies in alchemizing these emotions. I see my self-imposed shackles with crystal clarity.
For the past 32 years, I have been a professional healer and artist. But until that auspicious day, I had been playing small and staying safe, allowing fear of persecution to stop me. I justified my circumstances and convinced myself that the level of service I was providing in my healing arts business was enough – that I could fulfill my soul purpose without stepping too far outside my comfort zone.
A few years ago, I was called to awaken greater potential as not only a healer but as a revolutionary leader of healers. I resisted that inner voice, because I did not feel ready to step into this role of empowering women. I would tell myself that someday I would be ready, someday …
In late 2008, I made the commitment to get the mentoring and business training necessary to take my business to the next level. Out of that commitment came a series of synchronicities that eventually brought me to that gathering, where, steeped in a cauldron of sisterly support, the story continues …
I am being confronted by my mentor in present time, and I can feel the strength of the invisible field that keeps me from stepping into the leadership role I know I was born to fill. Although I want to support women to claim their power as fully activated healers, that outdated “never again” promise keeps me stagnant.
She stands before me, extending a deeply compassionate yet unwavering invitation: “The women from that life are looking for you lead them now. Will you show up for them?”
I feel the strength of her call, beckoning me to unleash the potency of my mission, to serve as a beacon of light that others will follow.
In a flash I see that my persistent refusal to show up in my full splendor (cloaked as valiant loyalty to a sacred vow) is the most destructive and selfish choice I could make. My resistance to lead dissolves in an instant. The old victim story of fear and persecution literally vanishes as I stand in my power: “Yes, I will show up for them.”
The victim story is only part of the truth. In other lives I have perpetrated hunting and kill*ng. An unacknowledged aspect of my soul is capable of destruction. I know in every moment we are free to choose to create or destroy life. In order to break the cycle of victim > rescuer > perpetrator, I must face the aspects inside me that are capable of such darkness.
The room dissolves and my mentor and I are dressed in priestess robes in a forest clearing where the past is completed and the present moment merges with a future time.
She says, “now is the first time in thousands of years that you are safe to reclaim your place of power. It is time to take on your sacred role as a leader in the sisterhood. You are protected and guided. Will you reclaim your place of power?”
“Yes, I will. Thank you.”
My mentor reminds me of my mother, this potent moment of her inviting me into my power heals my mother’s betrayal while activating a mystical path into my future. I know in my bones that my ability to create and destroy will be used in service to love and life. In the moment I claimed my power and released the old beliefs, I ended the victim cycle that had undermined my power as a woman and leader. I integrate the light and the dark to embrace all of me and activate my full power.
My life purpose of guiding women to reach their highest potential is unfolding with ease. I empower heart-centered women entrepreneurs to activate their healing gifts and make money while making a positive difference.
Together we create magic, beauty, financial abundance, and healing for ourselves and our communities.
We are activating soul-centered prosperity in life, love, and business, while reestablishing the sisterhood in present time.

How to transform pain into power. This episode is my perspective and tools that I have found helpful in my journey of physical, mental, and emotional pain.
I’m Christel Arcucci. You’re listening to the Embody Wealthy Podcast. The lightning path for women and empaths to quit people-pleasing, reclaim power, and create a pleasure-led legacy without apology.
Being human is a full spectrum experience. We will experience moments of incredible happiness, connection, love, joy, peace. We will also experience intense times of distress, struggle, darkness, illness, death of a loved one or a family.
I focus my work on your pleasure-led legacy, learning to navigate physical, mental, and emotional pain is essential in this exploration. While there are many teachings out there to think positive thoughts or be happy, that can bypass pain.
My approach is to acknowledge there is great pain and suffering in the world, and then choose what we do with the pain, struggle, suffering.
By embracing that struggle, the first thing to do is to breathe and come into the present moment as much as possible.
Expand your breath gently, without forcing. Anchor yourself in the environment that you are in.
Notice the sights, sounds, smells, textures, and tastes. It helps bring your attention more fully into the moment. In times of intensity, often the mind can hijack your experience and pull in extreme stress, distress, or trauma from the past.
While stressful things happened, the past and most important thing is to come into the moment, to breathe, to feel your body, even if it’s in pain.
Feel your emotions, even if they’re challenging.
I’m going to move forward with the remainder of this podcast from the perspective that you are in a safe environment, physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually,
Come into the present moment by feeling more can amplify the intensity, of intense thoughts, emotions, or physical pain. Yet by breathing we can move out of a stress response.
The stress response is a natural response to stress, it is built in.
You don’t get to decide whether or not you have one. What you get to decide is how you respond to the stress.
My teaching helps you to come into the present to be with what is happening. If it is emotional distress, acknowledge the feeling. I feel sad. I feel depressed. I feel anxiety, I feel helpless. I feel powerless.
As you notice, I included, “I feel,” which is very important.
Instead of saying, I am hopeless, powerless or…
This is one fundamental way of shifting the experience of being able to turn pain into reclaiming a sense of power by feeling your feelings and noticing what is happening in your mind.
The power of the mind is extraordinary. It has created so much of the incredible things that we experience in humanity on earth right now. Yet also, the power of the mind can make things so much harder. It can make an experience of struggle a thousand times harder, depending upon what your mind is saying.
So it’s important to acknowledge the feelings, acknowledge the mental dialogue that’s happening in your mind. What is your mind telling you?
In times of intensity without training, the mind can go into what I would call the perpetrator or the bully, some people would call the villain.
It is part of the trauma triangle, which I have done many other episodes about the trauma triangle. There are 3 roles to play on the trauma triangle, victim, perpetrator, or rescuer.
In times of intensity, our own minds can become the perpetrator, being mean to ourselves. It can be self-attack, blaming, shaming, making wrong. It can be this incredible intensity that feels inescapable, right?
It’s coming from the inside and one way of turning this mental, emotional pain into power to change is by recognizing the emotions and mental dialogue by getting it out of your head and saying it out loud or writing it down.
I know that can seem challenging to do. You don’t want to give any energy to it. But, it’s like fighting a ghost.
The more that you can understand what your mind is saying to you, the more you can understand that loop that the mind gets stuck in when it’s feeling trapped or helpless or under intense stress.
The more we can understand what the story is that the mind is stuck in, then we can find ways of changing that story slowly and.
These practices are. Long-term strategies that absolutely work in support with whatever other support you are getting.
These are support tools to help you shift your experience to move out of feeling like a victim to your mental, emotional, or physical struggles and to support you to reclaim your power so you can shift your experience.
So getting clear on “I feel” and “the story I’m telling myself.” Again, it gives you some distance between the mind. When it’s in the perpetrator place, the bully, it can just declare things to be true.
As we move into physical sensations of pain all of these practices being able to see, feel, experience, the pain, whatever level it’s on, but also to be able to recognize there are other aspects of you.
So if there is a place in your physical body that feels pain to go into the pain. Feel it to gently breathe life energy into that part of your body.
Gently open the edges of where the physical pain lives, with the breath and with the power of attention. By moving your mind to a place where there’s physical pain in the body, it helps increase circulation, which moves more life force and oxygen to the area. It also can help reduce inflammation by moving out of a contracted state.
The physical aspect is breathing gently and moving gently, and being mindful of how your body is responding.
We talked about the perpetrator with the mental aspect, and the same is true for all levels of this is approaching yourself with kindness, care, compassion.
If you are with somebody who is deeply struggling, there can be this desire to save them from their suffering to rescue them. The R on VPR Triangle.
From my experience as both someone who has been through incredible intense tragedies in my life, but also someone who works with people and their struggles for a living the best thing that I can do in being with someone who’s struggling is to be with them, be beep present without trying to fix anything unless there is something that they’re specifically asking for that would help them.
You’re doing the same thing when it’s inside yourself, bringing your presence.
What I like to think of as my CEO self, the one who is in charge of everything, keeping that part in charge. Just like the CEO of a company understands what’s happening in the company, understands the employees are gonna have struggles, but the CEO stays in charge rather than letting a wounded part run the company or stop momentum moving forward.
The same thing is happening in your life. Okay, I’m really struggling right now, this is really hard and this wounded part of me is trying to hijack this whole situation and get me stuck in an emotional feedback loop or a downward mental spiral, or creating more physical pain by making choices that don’t support healing.
it’s important to recognize that your CEO self stays in charge. You could call that your infinite self, your higher self, whatever most resonates with you, and being open to the experience of all the parts.
The CEO self is never the perpetrator saying, “I don’t want to hear about your struggle. Just get back to work.”
Right? That’s a wounded or immature part. Staying in the CEO self, the CEO is able to hold the big picture and to also support in navigating the metaphorical ship of yourself through a storm, through the intensity.
If you were in a storm and the captain of a ship, if there was a crew member that was ill and down with a fever and hallucinating, you wouldn’t be like, “Hey, you should come steer the ship through this storm.”
But that’s often what happens when we give the power to direct and guide our life to a part that it is in deep pain and suffering mentally, emotionally, physically, spiritually, that is where things can go from bad to worse.
It is important to acknowledge the challenge, the suffering, the pain, yet keeping the CEO. In charge the executive function of your brain, which is a practice, right? Because when you go into fight or flight into a stress response even of please or freeze the survival part of your brain takes over.
Doing this practice of being able to feel pain in any way yet to keep your CEO self in charge, to acknowledge the pain, to validate the feelings, yet to make the best possible choices to navigate them.
Do these practices on a daily basis when it isn’t an extreme situation is the easiest way to make it a habit.
When you’re facing an incredibly stressful time that these practices are built, on acknowledging the emotions, validating the feelings, recognizing the story that the wounded mind is running, feeling physical pain, feeling spiritual pain, yet being able to stay in a, an empowered place to make the best possible choices.
This practice, doing this with yourself supports you in then being able to be with someone else who is struggling to be with them, and simply being with somebody in their pain, breathing with them.
Being with pain and suffering can make such a huge difference.
The last few years have amplified the mental health crisis, the health crisis in the US, which is where I’m based.
Learning to tend to ourselves first and be with each other when we’re in pain. Learning to move out of a stress response into an empowered place to make the best possible choices.
So much of what I see in the collective. Is V P R is the trauma triangle. It’s glorified on television, in media, this victim, perpetrator, or rescuer.
As we individually can step off of the trauma triangle to learn, to navigate our own intensity, our own pain, the things within ourselves that we don’t want to look, it makes us better able to look at what we see in other people that we’re not thrilled about, and to better be able to come together to make the world a better place for everyone.
A sustainable, loving, supportive environment for all people.
Take a gentle breath, if it feels good for you to let out a sigh or a sound with your exhale if you feel stressed in your body, gently moving, turning your head, rotating your wrists, moving your fingers, moving your hips, side to side, enlivening. your body with your breath.
As we learn to be with our own pain, whether it is pain from the past pain we are currently experiencing or fear of future pain, we become better able to be with and support others who are struggling.
As you are breathing, envision golden light in your heart center, swirling in your heart, enlivening your body, able to hold any human experience.
You’re able to love any human struggle.
Gently breathing in, gently breathing out.
Notice emotions. Notice mental thoughts. Notice physical sensations
As we move into deeper practice. I invite you to keep breathing gently, yet as deeply as you can. And moving into or closer to places that are challenging and then moving away into an area that feels more neutral or maybe even good.
For example, in this moment in my left sit bone, left hip, there is discomfort, physical discomfort. There is also a mental story attached to it from when I was injured. There are also emotions attached to this physical discomfort that I’m experiencing.
The tendency without practice is to get consumed by contraction, by the pain, by the mental, emotion, fear, or physical pain.
The practice is to be able to identify and notice the experience from the CEO self, from your higher self, from the observer.
There’s physical pain there. There’s a mental story connected and emotions, and as I move deeper into the contraction, it gets bigger. Then it moves up into my heart, all the way up into the left side of my head. My heart feels heavy. So instead of letting the contracted experience, the pain body take over, I move towards it but not too deep. I move closer to it. I breathe gently at the edges of it.
I hold the vision for healing life force to return to this physical, mental, emotional experience that I’m having.
Gentle breathing, awareness, noticing I’m breathing gently, yet as deeply as possible.
I’m allowing movement in my body so that I don’t get stuck in the contraction.
eExpansion, contraction, light, and dark, day and night, winter and summer. They are an expression of nature.
The parts of my experience that I don’t like aren’t bad or wrong. They are part of the experience that we chose in becoming human.
Shifting perception that pain is a problem, pain is an experience, gives you more power to make better choices, and to not collapse into pain or contraction.
Being able to breathe gently to notice, acknowledge, validate my experience without giving all my power to it, is where incredible transformation can happen.
Breathing gently and choosing what I want to experience. Breathing at the edges of the discomfort, bringing light and life into the contraction in my physical, mental, emotional.
Inhaling gently, exhaling softly.
If the practice gets too intense, then you are regulating yourself. You are choosing to move to a different area, whether that’s physical, mental, emotional.
I focus on the right side of my body where there’s greater freedom and ease. As I tune in energetically, it feels lighter.
My left hip, where I was focusing my attention feels heavier, denser, more solid, so I’m moving my awareness into and out of pain, contraction, tightness, heaviness to not make that wrong.
Making the experience of pain wrong fuels the power to stay stuck there.
Develop your ability to notice, acknowledge, validate your experience, shift your awareness to different parts of your experience and to use your power to choose.
What emotions do I feel now?
What emotions do I want to feel now in the intensity of a very difficult emotional experience?
it’s important not to gaslight yourself in saying, I feel fabulous if you don’t.
What do you want to feel?
I want to feel lighter. I want to feel greater freedom in my body, mind, heart, and a lot of people will say in speaking, wanting creates more wanting.
Listen to Ep 19 The Creative Power of your Desire for my perspective.
Movie from the deep contraction of pain and redirect your attention, your focus, your mental, emotional, physical power to shift towards what you want is an incredible transformation that happens little by little.
The ability to be with intensity, the ability to create a path in the present and into the future that is different than the automatic override of past pain or trauma.
Gentle practice of being with your own experience.
The more you can practice doing this with yourself, the easier it becomes to be with other people who are in an intense experience to be with rather than. Going back into the trauma triangle of trying to rescue someone.
Gentle breath, gentle awareness of your emotional experience, your emotional body, gentle awareness of your mental experience. And the way the patterns of the mind can hijack you into the past.
This practice is a pathway to create a different experience in the present and moving forward.
It is generally not going to be a quick fix. Where, poof, while your troubles are gone.
it is an invitation to shift the way you work with stress, pain, struggle, any of the less desirable or totally undesirable experiences that are part of being. When you’re able to see these experiences that we would rather not experience as part of being human, then we can use that experience to transform the present and the future.
Learn to use the experience of challenge to fuel creative projects in whatever form turns you on, whether that is through writing, speaking, touch, through connecting with family members or friends or in your business or your career.
When we take pain from being a problem and to acknowledge that it’s simply part of our experience and what can we do with.
With the challenging side of being human, how can that inform the present you are creating and the future you want to create?
If you are unfamiliar with my story, my work came out of iIntense physical, mental, emotional pain, and a desire to first heal myself, transform my own experience and my life, and to then be able to help others.
When I am struggling in an intense experience the most powerful thing that I do is ask myself how does this flavor of life force want to move in and through and as me?
As a creative, as an artist, as a healer a a human on the path of awakening my greatest potential t is essential, to acknowledge that pain is part of our experience.
What can I do with pain/challenge/struggle when it happens?
I deeply desire that it transforms my life and transforms the lives of the people close to me, and it transforms the future of humanity on earth.
Simple practices of being with your emotional experience, being with the mental story that you’re experiencing, NS being with your physical experience.
Find the invitation into greater expression of who you are and what you’re here to do.
This has been the most intense podcast episode I have created, and it’s so important because we’re in this intense time in the US in the middle of the winter holidays and so many people are struggling.
These practices of being with our own experience, being better able to be with others, to acknowledge the ways in which our culture is so dysfunctional and so many systems are hyper dysfunctional and bringing it back to how do I feel about pain?
How do I transform my experience in service to the greater good?
First acknowledging that it’s part of our human experience and then choosing how I handle it within myself and interact with others.
Transform pain into power by seeing it as life force energy that wants to move through me with a particular flavor to inspire certain actions in my life.
Life challenges can be incredibly healing to myself, those around me and all of humanity.
It’s a pleasure to co-create and embody wealthy with you.

You’re listening to the Embody Wealthy Podcast. The lightning path for women and empaths to quit people-pleasing, reclaim power, and create a pleasure-led legacy without apology.

Desire is a taboo topic in our culture, especially for women and the focus of this episode is to unlock your access to the power of the life force energy that is your desire.
I’m Christel Arcucci. You’re listening to the Embody Wealthy Podcast. The lightning path for women and empaths to quit people-pleasing, reclaim power, and create a pleasure-led legacy without apology.
Desire and wanting are forbidden. Especially for women in a religious context, but then also in many of the new age spirituality and in some law of attraction teachings, desire and wanting have been hijacked and made into something to be avoided at all cost.
I want to speak about the trauma triangle for a moment because it plays into the dysfunctional power dynamics that make this possible for people to believe that desire and wanting are bad.
The very simplified version of the trauma triangle is there are three points in the triangle, three roles that you play in all dysfunctional relationships. You can be the victim, the perpetrator, or the rescuer. When you are engaging with somebody in this framework, those are the only three possibilities, and if somebody is playing a certain role, you can only choose from one of the other roles.
I call this VPR for short, victim, perpetrator, rescuer.
There are many people that use this framework and they use different words, but the meaning is the same in essence. So if you are wanting from a place of holding victim energy that you will never receive what you’re wanting. If you hold the belief t’s impossible for you, or wanting is bad, or desire is bad.
If you’re holding this place of being powerless, being the victim, then you can stay stuck in just wanting, in just holding desire without receiving what you are wanting.
The focus of this episode is to support you to move out of powerlessness in whatever form into a place of clear, empowered desire or wanting.
Some people say it’s one word or the other that’s okay to use and my perspective is it’s more the energetics of your desire or your wanting.
If you are approaching what you want or desire from a place of powerlessness, from believing that the only way you can receive this is if somebody saves you from the victim position on the triangle. You are likely to stay stuck.
When you step off of the trauma triangle and start engaging in relationships with yourself with other people and with your life in general, from an empowered place, empowered desire, empowered wanting, then you are tapping into the power to create.
You are tapping in to the energy of your life force.
To be able to create and receive what you desire. That is the focus that we’re looking at, is how do you step off of the trauma triangle into a place of power of believing that you can create what you desire.
You can create what you want, and most likely when you begin doing this, practice regularly and tapping into the fire of desire.
Desire is the fire of life force energy.
The desire to create something new in your life and maybe something new for the world and often what happens, especially with women, empaths and healers, is we have become afraid of our own power, perhaps even conditioned to shy away from our fire, from our power to create change for a variety of reasons.
There’s a lot of dysfunctional religious programming, programming in the spirituality, new age world law of attraction, and especially for what is traditionally seen as feminine arts, creativity, healing, intuition, connection with nature.
These things in our culture are seen as bad and wrong, so what we are focusing on today in order to giving you the key to unlock your ability to trust, your desire, to trust your power, to trust your wanting, your intuition. One small action and one. Step at a time.
I think the dominant narrative has intentionally shaped this fear to keep the majority of people feeling disempowered from being able to create the experience in our own lives and the collective that we desire.
I am here to change that, to give you the key so that you trust your fire, you trust your desire to make the world a better place, starting with your own life, believing that you being taken care of you, having the money, the support, the resources, the connections that you need, to have your needs more than taken care of so that then you can contribute to the greater good in whatever way lights you up.
From my experience, each one of us has a different focus, slightly different, sometimes radically different, but from my perspective and experience in this field for over 30 years, that everything will be taken care of.
If each one of us stands in our power, claims our desires, utilizes the life force energy of our fire to create change, that the world can be transformed in a short amount of time.
It begins with you. It begins with you who are listening to this right now.
You restoring your trust in yourself, you tapping into your desire to have a better life for yourself, for your family, and for the world.
I invite you to make yourself as comfortable as possible so that you can soften your body and move into a state of deeper relaxation.
Breathing into your heart center.
Fueling love, love inside of your own heart.
As the rest of your body relaxes, you are following my voice into a deeper state of consciousness, a deeper state of divine mind that gives you access to the truth of your soul.
And the truth of your soul is always looking for what is best for you and for the greater good.
Gentle breaths support you in going deeper and deeper into relaxation. Settling, settling. Settling and you find yourself in a cave deep in the earth and there is a fire burning in the cave, Creating the perfect temperature.
The flames and sparks weaving up into the air. You find yourself mesmerized and you hear from deep within the belly of the Earth, I trust you. I trust your power. I trust how life force moves through you and inspires you is completely unique to you.
What you want, what you desire is your gift to the world. That includes the things that seem beautiful and yes, also there is work to be done with your shadow desires.
The desires that you feel ashamed of. What do you want that you think is terrible? It is the movement of life force. It doesn’t necessarily need to be expressed as you see it or feel it. What you are beginning to understand now is the flow of life force.
When your mind grabs on to a desire, tries to control, contain, confine it, shape it into something that will be pleasing to others.
That reaction is part of what has gotten humanity to the point you are at. What you fear most if you dominate it, control it, contain it, confine it, use it for only your benefit somehow that will lead to awakening.
That is misguided life force energy.
Your practice with your desire. Is to sit at the fire with your desire, looking into the flames, looking into the flow of life force.
What do you have to teach me?
What is. That you are showing me about myself or humanity.
Desire isn’t always practical and linear.
Sometimes it is a beautiful metaphor and mind bending practice of going deeper. Desire can help you to process stress from this life and past lives. It can help you unlock the way that trauma and pain has become constricted in your body Mind. In your collective experience, life force energy, what if everything is an expression of life force energy when a desire arises that you feel resistant to or afraid of.
Look directly into the fire, look into it, and look deeper, feel deeper, look deeper than what you see on the surface.
Humanity is captivated by the superficial, by the stress response fight, flight, please or freeze.
Go deeper. Find the flow of life force.
Find the truth of your desire. When you go deep enough into desire, you will find your truth. You will find your core values. You will find what your soul came to earth to do.
So much time is spent not trusting, not believing, of only looking at the superficial surface and being afraid of that and turning away when the deeper layers, when the deepest truth is underneath a facade, go deeper.
What is your desire?
What is your wanting?
The bulk of humanity has bought into the belief that pleasure is bad. We won’t talk about why that is, because it is obvious where that belief is rooted. Who perpetuated that belief?
What if pleasure, what if the flow of life force, what if delight, enjoyment, full expression is the point?
What if pleasure is the point?
What if embodied experience of life on earth is the reason that you are here to find what delights you, excites you?
And lights your fire and oh yes.
There can easily be the discussion of addiction. What? About when the pursuit of pleasure goes too far. Ah, so much of what humanity is struggling with is a dysfunctional relationship with power is rooted in the trauma triangle. Victim, perpetrator, or rescuer, choose your role. These are the only three that are available. This is the dominant narrative on planet Earth, right?
Step off the trauma triangle, find what lights you up, what excites you, what fills you up, and gives you such great abundance that you can then do what’s most important to.
What if that is your gift to humanity?
What fuels your body, mind, heart, and aligns you with your soul Truth.
The place that humanity is struggling right now is with dysfunctional power dynamics.
Yyou only get to be the victim, the perpetrator, or the rescuer.
The way off the triangle, the trauma triangle of victim, perpetrator, or rescuer is to step off and create a new relationship with power.
Begin being aware of and mindful how you play out VPR by yourself, with yourself, and with those closest to you, and even with your desire.
“Desire is bad. Desire is forbidden. I can’t do that.”
What if you make room for the life force energy that moves through you, that is you.
What would you create if you weren’t limited by time or money?
You could create anything and everything you want. I believe that if you are here and listening to me, you will create a better world for humanity
I want you to be able to receive abundance, more abundance, wealth support than you can imagine to create a life of fullness of health, creativity, doing the projects that your soul longs to express.
Your life force energy is guiding you towards it, nudging you towards it. Perhaps you’re already in alignment and doing it in a way.
Ah, and in this moment, can you open more to the life force that is pulsing through you as.
I want to create a world of incredible collaboration and co-creation that is in service to embodied love and aligned with nature.
All humans are supported. With their health, mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, which creates more life, more health, more beauty, and the ability to embrace and express the shadow. Yes. Yes, yes.
This can be challenging to see what will happen when humanity embraces the light and the shadow life and death part of embracing your life force energy.
Your desire is the lifecycle. Creation, maintenance and dissolution. There cannot only be creation. There is a time to maintain and a time for things to return back to life force. This is part of the fear of desire is the dissolution, the death part of the cycle, the letting go. It is an essential part of the cycle of nature and you are part of nature.
Hmm, and your desire is pure fire.
Practice with your desire, befriend your wanting.
Sit with your shadow, your fears, what holds you back.
Breathe, move, embody your humanity, which is both light and shadow, sun and moon, creation and destruction. You are a powerful creator and at some point this expression of your body mind will dissolve and return source life force energy.
How will you use your life force energy to create?
What will you create?
How gracefully can you let go?
Gently and slowly begin to take a deeper breath and liven your body with gentle movements, wiggling your fingers, your toes, your ankles, knees. Mm. Rocking your hips side to side.
Enlivening your body with your breath, bringing your awareness back into the physical room or space you are in.
Another fuller, deeper breath and slowly open your eyes, taking in the light, the color in your room, and weaving together the power of this session into your waking life.
You have the power to bring together your unconscious mind and your conscious mind to fuel the power of your desire to create what you want in your life and in the world.
It’s a pleasure to co-create and embody wealthy with you.
