    The Art of Being - I AM as a lifestyle

    I Am as a Lifestyle: Moving from Doing to Being This conversation explores the spiritual and practical power of the phrase “I am” as a way to return to presence, calm the nervous system, and shift out of overthinking. Maya and Sandy discuss how this simple practice can become a micro practice for daily life, especially when paired with a fascia-informed, trauma-aware, body-led approach. In this episode, they unpack how “I am” supports self-sovereignty, reduces resistance, and helps create space for clearer choices when life gets disrupted. Key topics “I am” as a lifestyle, framing it as a move away from constant doing and toward grounded being. “I am” as a full sentence and a feeling of home, a centered state where “all is well” and the body leads rather than the mind. The phrase “I am” is presented as a present-tense anchor, helping interrupt overwhelm, second-guessing, and the “I am not” patterns shaped by conditioning. Connecting the practice to body wisdom and fascia-informed living, emphasizing that presence can be sensed in the body before the mind steps in. Staying with “I am” keeps the brain from taking charge too quickly, offering a pause to ask the body what is needed instead of spiraling into mental chatter. Focus on choosing not changing,  “I am” supports sovereignty and identity shifts without forcing self-fixing. Resistance creates suffering, while presence opens up options, flexibility, and more appropriate responses to unexpected changes. Real-life examples of the practice, showing how a disrupted plan can become an opportunity instead of a source of frustration. Explores how injury, retirement, and major life transitions can all invite a return to “I am”, especially when old routines fall away and identity needs refreshing. The conversation closes with a short guided micro practice, followed by reflection on how even a few breaths of “I am” can feel like a reset or a tiny nap. Action items Try repeating “I am” silently for a few breaths when you notice overwhelm. Attach the practice to an existing habit like brushing your teeth or after a meal. Notice whether your body feels more present when you stay with the phrase instead of completing it with a thought. Use “I am” as a pause before making a decision, especially when plans change. Pay attention to where movement, rest, and choice can become more natural in your daily routine.

    Showing up for yourself - part two

    In this episode, Maya and Sandy continue their exploration of micro practices inspired by the Reiki tradition of Hatsurei-ho and they focus on how small, consistent daily rituals can support nervous system regulation, energetic sovereignty, and lasting personal change. They begin by grounding the conversation in the idea that transformation happens through repetition, not force. Rather than trying to “fix” ourselves, they explore how breath, presence, and embodied awareness can help us expand, integrate, and respond more skillfully to life’s challenges. A central theme of the episode is the power of micro practices to help us notice what is ours, what needs attention, and how to care for ourselves before reacting to the world around us. Through guided breath and visualization practices, listeners are invited to connect with their body, cultivate inner steadiness, and experience the ripple effect of self-regulation in daily life.  The conversation also highlights: The role of breath in supporting presence and vitality How energetic sovereignty impacts personal well-being and relationships Why small, regular practices are more sustainable than big, intense efforts The importance of befriending emotions instead of resisting them How integration creates resilience, clarity, and ease This episode is an invitation to start small, stay consistent, and return to yourself with compassion. Key Takeaway: Small practices, done regularly, can help you feel more grounded, more expansive, and more at home in yourself. Topics Covered: Hatsurei-ho as Reiki-inspired micro practices Breath, fascia, and nervous system support Energetic sovereignty and self-regulation Integration versus overwhelm Building sustainable daily rituals Call to Action: Try one small practice from this and our previous episode and repeat it daily for a few days. Notice what changes when you show up for yourself consistently.  Website:⁠⁠ ⁠https://lotzofpossibilities.com/⁠⁠⁠ Micro-practices: https://lotzofpossibilities.com/micro-practices Reiki Precepts playlist  Cultivate Presence podcast episode about Gassho, bringing two hands together as micro-practice Buy us a coffee and support the show

    Showing up for yourself - part one

    In this episode, Maya and Sandy explore the power of showing up for yourself through short, consistent micro practices. Inspired by Hatsurei-ho, a Japanese Reiki method, they share how small daily rituals can help cultivate presence, reduce overwhelm, and support long-term well-being. Together, they unpack the first four stages of Hatsurei-ho, including relaxation, focused attention, dry bathing, and connecting to something greater than yourself. Along the way, they discuss how these practices can be adapted for real life — whether you’re at your desk, in transition between tasks, or simply trying to reset during a busy day. Rather than waiting for a crisis to begin caring for yourself, this conversation invites you to make self-tending a regular part of life. If you’ve ever wanted a gentler, more sustainable way to build mindfulness into your day, this episode offers an accessible place to start. Key Topics Showing up for yourself consistently Hatsureho and its nine stages Micro practices for presence and grounding Why daily rituals support resilience Making practices accessible in everyday life Takeaway Well-being isn’t just about fixing what’s wrong — it’s about building a steady practice that helps you return to yourself again and again.
