    S3E4: Running as a Spiritual Practice

    On episode 4 of the new season, I dive into 'Running as a Spiritual Practice', what that means to me, and how this way of relating to endurance sport has evolved over the last few years, and continues to with each session.

    Contemplation: I AM vs i am

    A contemplation on I AM and i am, the differentiation and importance of understanding these in the human experience. Within the I AM is every “i am” that has ever been uttered because no thing exists beyond the absolute I AM state. A contemplation in a true sense as I don’t suspect this share has a lot of practical use, however it can be one of the most profound things to realize within ourselves and connect to. The more we can anchor into our true nature of I AM and embody this awareness, everything around us begins to change 👁️✨

    S3E3: Gene Key 25 and The Art of Contemplation

    On this episode I dive into my experience with the Gene Keys over the last 22 months, how it's been helpful and some insights into how best to work with your profile. Gene Key 25 goes from Constriction to Acceptance to Universal Love and Richard Rudd refers to it as THE "hub" Gene Key. While I don't have it in my own profile, it has been one of the most potent and consistently helpful keys in the whole canon. I am eternally grateful for Richard and the Gene Keys, and I am excited to begin sharing some of my insights with this work on the podcast.
