Change is often a PROCESS of transition. Sometimes it begins as an internal whisper over time… Asking ourselves questions, reflecting, and experiencing epiphanies… are essential ingredients to sincere shifts, long lasting change, and orienting our life in completely new pathways over a duration of time 🌍
The seed blossoms from within 🌿
Full house 🌍 honored to be here with each and every one of you. Para el bien de todos 🌍🌺🌿🙏🏼

Please don’t let this hold you back from sharing or asking a meaningful question…
Who knows, you might be able to help someone in a different country by simply being you 🌺
Let’s get some good questions and answers going 🌍

Much love! 💗
Floating on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day has become an iconic way to transition through the new year over the years.
Each float is remarkably different, partially based on us being different people each time we step into the tank.
“No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it is not the same river, and he is not the same man.”
- Heraclitus
I have literally spent hundreds of hours in the tank over the last 12 years… and I can assure you… they get better and better.
One of the main pieces to floating, is just simply learning how and when to implement the tool into your routine.
And this can only be discovered by going on the journey.
How do floats feel before vs after a workout?
How do morning floats feel vs evening floats?
If you ever have questions about floating… sincerely feel free to ask 💗 this tool has changed many lives… myself included.
Recently had the opportunity to comfort someone in worries that have been personally felt before… and literally felt healing happen through my own being.
Perhaps, this is what they mean by the past, present, and future are all happening at the same time.
And the way we respond… is either helpful or harmful to these dimensions.
We don’t have to continue unfortunate ripples just because they are already in motion.
We hold the opportunity to slow down… respond… and better orient the momentum of our behavior and lives.
Sometimes YOU are the bridge of transition.
This is a huge FULL ON STONE HELMET 🌍 Nate Garcia and I started our New Year by hiking FOR HOURS in this rock forest… absolutely mesmerized.
These rock formations were on another level.
We saw animals, faces, heads, and sculptures clear as day embedded in the rocks. This place was absolutely magical… and literally continued throughout the entire canyon.
How did you spend your New Year? 🌍
How have you been transitioning into 2024? 💗

Grateful. Grateful. Grateful.
Wishing everybody a beautiful and wholesome transition into 2024.
This concept continues to show deeper and deeper layers through this journey. The amount in which we are blended through our environments - both nature and nurture, internal and external - is truly astonishing.
The amount in which we are able to FEEL what is happening in the environment AROUND us.
Is astonishing.
The amount in which OUR internal state is able to INFLUENCE the environment we are in - for better or worse.
Is astonishing.
Becoming more mindful - and mindfulness in general - is the ability that allows us to slow down and recognize these influences, respond in a way that minimizes suffering for everybody involved, and guides us in a more wholesome direction.
The mystics say, one of the ways you can gauge your station of spiritual excellence… is to examine your level of gratefulness. Today - like any day - is a time to practice the depth of our gratefulness 🌍🌺🌿🙏🏼
Often times people get concerned with what they will get in return from giving… When the act of giving is a gift in itself if it’s coming from a beautiful place with meaningful intentions.
One move or gesture that benefits both our internal world and the external world we are in.
Holding selfish intentions may not necessarily change the act of giving itself, but it is able to shift the ripples, resonance, how the gift is perceived, and even the way the gift is received - whether with hesitation or caution… or wholeheartedly with warmth and appreciation.
Our intentions can behave like undercurrents guiding or pushing moves into motion beneath the surface of seemingly normal or calm waters.
Be mindful in the ways you are guiding (or pushing) the emotional world around you… and within you.
And remember… you are also feeling the intentions you are moving with… and quite possibly picking up on the intentions of the people around you.
Meditation, mindfulness, composure, and stillness are helpful when knowing which would be which 💗
Come from the heart… move with care… hold compassion dearly…
And remember… The giving IS the gift.
Especially, when coming from beautiful and nutritious soil… planting seeds of beauty wherever they land.
What a journey 🌍 grateful and honored to learn from people and elders like Roger along the way 🌿 mucho respeto por usted, familia. Thank you for helping pave the way for a more beautiful world… and guiding others to the best of your ability through the process. Para el bien de todos.
Sharing some wisdom and guidance from a dear friend and Native American Elder 🌍 “Stay humble. And give service to others the best you can.” Much love, brother.
Another sacred sweat lodge ceremony in the books 🌍🌺🌿🙏🏼 Grateful. Grateful. Grateful. Grateful.
Nurture your soil. Share your fruits. Plant seeds. Grow orchards. Rinse and repeat 🌍
Sometimes the noise around us - both internal and external - can block out our internal whisper and compass.
Sometimes we can become discombobulated based on what we are simply LISTENING to…
This could be:
Society
Opinions
Memories
Belief systems
Outside influences
Internal thought patterns
And so much more…
Be mindful of what you are listening to… and do your absolute best to reroute your compass and overall orientation with a much more wholesome purpose…
One that you know holds meaning far beyond your personal world or gain.
6 years ago*** Digging DEEP with Viking Ninja Training in Chicago 🌍 Grateful for the many different coaches and opportunities along the way 🙏🏼
The next time you feel stuck in your head… Ask yourself “Is kindness present?”
Expressions of kindness, both within our internal world AND with our external environments, may play a massive role in building the bridge from our head to our heart.
Quick drawing / concept that came through a discussion today. If there are moves that will ONLY benefit our internal environment… and there are moves that will ONLY benefit the external environment… then wouldn’t there have to be moves that will benefit both at the same time?
And the more moves we are able to align with that will benefit both the internal and external, the better.
Para el bien de todos.
Producing more harmony and purpose in both the short term and long term… while also nurturing the ecosystems we both share.
People know the difference… people can FEEL the difference 💗
Our relationships ripple into EVERY OTHER LIFE around us 🌍 The benefits from grounding, emotional regulation, and responding better literally impact the entire environment around us…
Therefore…
Naturally impacting the ENTIRE environment around those WE IMPACT.
Internal harmony… para el bien de todos.
It has been a WILD week of flow and production… 🌍 (info scribbled out for privacy) 🔥
Officially meeting this little homie for the first time 🌍
It’s one thing to ask more questions… it’s another to genuinely and sincerely ask more questions from the bottom of our heart.
The ACT of asking questions is only a portion of the equation… the intentions BEHIND the questions, and where the questions are even coming from are often times overlooked and hold an enormous amount of weight in this equation… 💗
"The undisturbed mind is like the calm body water reflecting the brilliance of the moon. Empty the mind and you will realize the undisturbed mind."

What is the Self Care Sunday Community Event? 🤔 NEXT SUNDAY 🌍
“How do you change your mindset?” 🤔 There are MANY ways to approach this question that can vary based on the context and scenario at hand.
BUT… here is some perspective that can be helpful as a base response.
Wishing you the best on your journey ahead, within, and beyond 🌍
You don't need to understand what someone else is going through to be able to genuinely support them 🌍

✨ GRATITUDE PRACTICE ✨ Journal Prompt: Write down 10 things you are grateful for that HAVE NOT happened yet. This prompt has been an absolute game changer for me personally, as well as every single person I’ve shared it with over the last 2-3 years. Deeply grateful for @aubreymarcus and @maya.stojan for this planted seed almost 3 years ago in @fitforservice. This concept has completely rerouted how people have approached their practice of gratefulness, myself included. Another beautiful method to add to the medicine bag of development 🌿 🌿 courses.xpandyourself.com 🌿
Watching other people grow, evolve, and thrive is an incredibly underrated part of our own healing journey. Our nervous systems pick up on the subtle changes in our environment, and when we are surrounded by people undergoing genuine transformations… This will inherently build an operating system that perceives more opportunity and potential possible. When we feel supported and support other people through this process… it helps produce a web that our collective growth can be supported by. And each new moment, each new person, each new recognition added to the thread only makes the web stronger. Gaining durability. Building wholesomeness. Generating depth. Enhancing our soul journey. Producing more beauty. And improving our collective experience on the planet we share. What position will you hold in the web of the collective? ☀️ Feel Supported 👉🏼 courses.xpandyourself.com 🌍🌍🌍🌍
