A Yellowstone bear from Aug 2020. Strong, clear Qi! Ever just sit and listen to the amazing intricacies of sounds there are in a flowing river? How about the sensation of a crackling fire, or the creak and groan of an old growth forest from high within the branches? What about the feeling as you observe the gradient of color change move across the sky during a vibrant sunset? Can you directly experience the curiosity and gentle wisdom when you lock eyes with a deer across the forest floor? Life is vibrational energy. Different sounds, colors and creatures have different vibrations. Differen ..read more

Root, Connect, Respond

Full moon Oct 2020 near Lake Augusta, WA   What if the Coronavirus 19 is a teacher of Mystery? A teacher of the Earth, by the Earth, from the depths of Mystery and darkness deep in the Earth showing up as an instructor, as Earth medicine requiring us to root, connect and respond in a new way? The complement to darkness is light. The counterbalance to shadow is a glow. A shadow is an absence of light. A reflection is light returning to source from an object. What if Coronavirus has arrived on Earth at this time as a strong teacher from the darkness requiring us to root deeply into our on ..read more

                                                                              The Initiation   The wheel of time turns in ever-widening, kaleidoscopic prisms involuting, convoluting, and enfolding through minuscule slivers of cascading emergence. Co-creating new life never experienced by the forms that parented it’s novelty coming into existence. Morphed and shaped into being through endless scou ..read more

Wash Your Hands

Wash Your Hands   We are humans relearning to wash our hands. Washing our hands is an act of love Washing our hands is an act of care Washing our hands is an act that puts the hypervigilant body at ease Washing our hands helps us return to ourselves by washing away what does not serve. Wash your hands like you are washing the only teacup left that your great grandmother carried across the ocean, like you are washing the hair of a beloved who is dying, like you are washing the feet of Grace Lee Boggs, Beyonce, Jesus, your auntie, Audre Lorde, Mary Oliver- you get the picture. Like this water is ..read more

The Ultimate Community Teaching
Movement From Within Blog
by Carrie Lafferty
4y ago
    In all of the Earth-based shamanic systems I have been exposed to and studied within, there has been a common question that I have heard the shaman or an elder on the path bring forth at a moment when the Universe was providing the conditions for a teaching. The teaching was always a moment for learning or evolution of a higher creation of consciousness to come into form. That question is, “What is the medicine in this moment?” What is your medicine? What is my medicine? What is our collective’s medicine in the face of the conditions of Covid-19? I’ve been taking in and embracing the cond ..read more

What If Gravity and Love are the Same Force?
Movement From Within Blog

Wikipedia defines gravity as “a natural phenomenon by which all physical bodies attract each other.” It defines love as “a deep, tender ineffable feeling of affection and solicitude toward something or someone.” From where I sit, I could describe them both as the glue of interconnection between all things. They can be measured, formulated, studied and many other things. However, they are nearly impossible to describe in words. Scientists don’t really know what they are. They are ineffable. They can only be sensed. Gravity pulls all matter towards the center of Mother Earth. Just like any anim ..read more

The Rub Of Change

As I sat at the edge of Spirit Lake at Mt. St. Helen’s last month, I had a deep visceral wondering arise. I was sitting at the edge of the lake, right in the center of the blast zone from nearly 40 years ago, gazing out upon the still thousands of sun-bleached white tree snags floating near the shore of the lake in front of me. They were floating in such a way they made a pattern just inviting one to walk across them out toward the center of the lake. They looked like a beautiful large net with the sun glinting off the tiny spaces where the water of the lake could be seen between their mesmeri ..read more

The Truth Mandala

It was in the late 90’s/early 2000’s I made the conscious decision not to have children. It was complex and based on many things. One of which was feeling like the uncertainty of the future seven generations was something I did not want to add more population to. It was at that same time I began to grieve the substantial changes I could see happening to our one home, Mother Earth. This coincided with also being the time period where all of my deeper study into awareness practices began. I was able to see, feel, and understand that at the core of our challenges was humanity’s misunderstanding o ..read more
