Bonus Video: ASMR Chakra Healing and Acupressure (Patreon)

Hello friends!

Please enjoy the first take of our chakra healing video that didn't make it to YouTube 🧡. It is quite a bit different, and we didn't get to finish the video that first night as it was getting too late. 

Thank you all for your generosity in supporting this channel. These past months, I've been able to purchase a gimbal and a drone which have been delightful. It really helps my work reach a higher level.

Marika and I are back from our east coast trip to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. It was incredibly refreshing to see folks in this eco village harmonizing with Mother Earth beautifully. We absorbed as much information as we could, and we are so hungry for more. As a city dweller, I am grateful for the conveniences and comforts I enjoy, but I also feel deprived of essential skills that bring life and nourish the soul. I've only just learned how to work a wood stove, use a composting toilet, use basic hand tools for building, etc. I don't believe I could survive if I were left to fend for myself...

I dream of living a more self sufficient lifestyle the way my recent ancestors have. My grandparents were farmers and pastoral nomads in Central Asia, living in either clay homes or felt yurts, deeply connected to the land. All of us here are descended from peoples who knew the land, the sky, the water and the wind. Many knew how to manage resources in a responsible way and had deep respect for the land. I long to foster a deeper connection with the land too.

Every day in New Brunswick I would trek to the peak of a mountain of the Appalachian range and look out at the horizon. The views were breathtaking, especially at sunset or under the full moon. 

I've never lived in Central Asia where my parents come from, and having been displaced I never truly fit in anywhere. Everywhere I go, I'm viewed as other, and I've struggled to establish a connection with my ancestor spirits. Yet, on this mountain, in an intimate connection with Mother Earth and Father Sky, I've never felt more at home. And I've never felt more embraced by my ancestor spirits. On that mountain, I wept on my knees as I released the deep sadness of disconnection and loneliness. Then I wept again tears of gratitude for being found by my Mother and Father. I danced with my ancestor spirits and laughed as I twirled in the air and tumbled on the ground. I was not alone. I was never alone.

Having left New Brunswick, I feel changed in many ways. I still experience times of anxiety and depression, but it is markedly lighter and there is more awareness and less despair. I am devoted to becoming a steward of the Earth and helping others do so as well. I am trying to move slower in all aspects of my life, so that I could enjoy each moment to the fullest. And I'm resting a lot. My career is changing, too, as I navigate the best way to serve the planet and all its lifeforms. 

Thank you for being here. Thank you for listening and watching. I love you all dearly 🧡.
