Many of us are truly feeling, maybe for the first time, areas in our own selves where life has been suppressed lifting off. We are metamorphosing into our next evolution, past what we knew as the butterfly and moving into something different. We have a choice right now, and choice is our human superpower. We are able to choose to flow or become the flow-er. Flowering into more of ourselves.

This episode is an invitation to notice where LIFE has been suppressed in you. That can show up in a thousand ways. Paying attention to anywhere in your physical, mental, emotional or spiritual body you are receiving a message that you are stifled or suppressed. You inner-stand you are ready to choose to open to let this move through. You can acknowledge the leaving without becoming entangled with what needs to be released. You know now you are the flow(er) and you are meant to flow life through your whole being.

As the year comes to a close, this episode also invites you to notice AND celebrate where you have shifted already. What is it you have released. Acknowledging that also without entanglement. 

May all that has suppressed life for humanity — be lifted from your shoulders, be also lifted from all living beings. May they be happy, healthy, and living in harmony with their own source of pure love. So it is. 

~Beloved, allow what is leaving to be undisturbed in its departure

So much is falling away from what has been considered normal, YOU are not here for normal

You are here to embody your brilliance Let everything that isn’t fall away

Shed the tears which lubricate their leaving

Throw your arms open and welcome in more of YOU, flowing from your inner spring of purity

There’s no room for anything else on this journey now

The bells of purity are ringing out across the cosmos The Earth has answered You have answered More are joining every day

Sounding across the lands Raising your hand Raising your voice to sing once more the fullness of your love

Weaving the notes of Oneness together for all living beings~

(poem by Christine Pensa)

The metaphor of the caterpillar and the butterfly has always been a powerful one for our own evolution - the trust and knowing the caterpillar embodies in order to let go of every single cell she was in order to metamorphosize into the butterfly inspires. 

Now, there is an invitation to open to what comes after the butterfly. These next steps are not written in stone, but they are written on our hearts and in the trust we have for our own connection to pure love. 

What is it exactly that we are being invited to move into? It’s the to move into more of who each of us is. Consider that we already are/have everything inside us to become what is beyond the butterfly. Just as the caterpillar trusts she is already the butterfly, we too can trust in order to expand beyond the limitations we have known. We are welcoming an evolution for ourselves and for everyone around us. There is no need for saving others, there is simply allowing the release of what we were to BE-come more of who we are ready to be. Moving through the world, focused, powerful, free, fully ourselves, that is what clears a path for others to become more of themselves. 

This episode is an invitation to see, feel, and know what is next for you. 

Noticing as you let go of so much that is not you, what echoes are returning and how little substance much of what was has for you. Moving forward solidly standing in your own source of pure love. It’s why we’re here at this powerful time on the planet. 

~Oh that moment 

When you realize  The suffering is the nonsense that you chose to believe was you

When you innerstand You can Let it lift off 

Leaves  floating through the sky Landing softly  at your feet 

Then blown away on the winds Of the change  You are Here Now~

Welcome to the next season of the Awakened Woman Self Care podcast. I’m beginning season 7 with an updated introduction and a reprise of episode 135 which was inspired by the phrase full of yourself, the episode explored the question, “If you’re not full of yourself, who else and what else are you full of?” I was prompted to re-listen myself this morning and it has triggered an even deeper excavation in me. I trust it will invite many of you to do the same. 

The episode is an invitation to explore how much self you are full of, and noticing the programs, patterns and habits you are ready to release?

We continue to journey through terrain that is unfamiliar. Ensuring we cultivate more of our true selves is ever more important to navigate these times. As we are finding our new footing in this moment, many of us are watering the new ground with our tears. Those tears can be the emptying out of what is not us and stepping back into filling ourselves up with the truth of who we are and have always been beneath the clutter.

It’s an invitation to expand into more of yourself through the lens of adventure and wonder. An invitation to allow any tears shed to water the ground of you.

My deepest wish for you is to become completely and utterly FULL of yourself - here - now because that is what this world needs. 

As I mentioned, this reprise episode was prompted by Kaya Usher. You can find out more about Kaya Usher’s gifted Daily Frequency Activations on Mighty Networks and you can sign up here; https://www.thesimplicityplatform.com/

This episode is an invitation to move into more of yourself through self witnessing and witnessing of others in the purest sense. It’s an invitation to enter into your own deep wisdom — that part of you that knows that you are no longer interested in living in polarity and not only the very visible and evident polarity — but also the more subtle energy of polarity that keeps you from being in resonance with your own authentic self.

It's a call to reclaim the true essence of your divine and infinite nature, and to release, like a set of heavy clothes that no longer fit, the false programs you have been wearing.

When you become adept at truly witnessing yourself, you are able to deepen into the medicine of love that you are, you are better able to express the language of love that comes from connecting to your own Source without the interference of outside programs of polarity and division. It is a powerful act of self love, which naturally becomes universal love on this planet. 

Here is the poem I wrote when I first taught my Witnessing classes years ago, which I think expresses the deep joy that true witnessing can bring to our lives;

Show me who you are and I will celebrate that beauty with you

Show me how you are here expressing Show me the beauty of your authentic voice witnessed  I long to hear it, as much as I long to hear my own

Show me who you are and my ears will drink in that beauty in you

As I open to see the beauty in myself and allow myself to be witnessed in all the ways I move in this world I can see more of the dance of love expressing and moving through you

Show me who you are and we will dance barefoot on the Earth with joy

I will give you all the space you need to show me who you are I will witness your grace as you show me that note being sung through you to all of creation Those notes we sing together with our love as we bring medicine to this Earth

Show me who you are—truly and we will sing with that beauty in us

(Christine Pensa)

When you begin to know that aspect of yourself that is divine, that is infinite, that is pure love, and is here now to anchor that on this earth - you don’t need to judge, give advice, etc. when someone else is expressing. You honour the divinity of others and celebrate with joy as both of you move into deeper and deeper creative expressions of your embodied light.

As always, I love to explore the evolution of sacred self care for humans in this time - we keep choosing to become more of who we truly are and it keeps shifting. It’s challenging and exciting and sometimes frustrating.

This episode is a fine tuning of our capacity for change, presence, and focus as pure love beings in this time. We all have a role in this symphony of light, one that is being heard and played throughout the cosmos.

The metaphor of riding the wild horses was inspired by my friend Erin’s vision, and the poem below came forward in me;

“Ride

The English language lists just 127 synonyms for love 

Beloved, let’s ride the wild horses into the infinite ways you know we can taste it

Your hair streaming wild, your eyes bright with wonder  as you lead the world into that freedom

So it is”

We’re the riders of these horses and we are riding into more of ourselves, feeling exhilarated, maybe scared, full of wonder and yet we are also holding the reins because we DO have the instructions in our own hearts. That makes it even more important than ever to trust your heart, pay attention and be fully present with yourself first. The invitation is to become ever more impeccable with yourself and become aware of how the outside information (bafflegab) makes you feel. Does your heart open and soar or are you left being intrigued entirely by your mind which is subject to programs, distraction and diversions?

A loving reminder to take the reins and choose the horse you are riding into the next evolution for yourself, and, for what you truly want to see in this world.

This episode is a hybrid of the last episode, “Let the Waters Settle Beloved” and Episode 157 “Releasing caterpillar ways to embody the butterfly.” 

Continuing with the powerful metaphor of the evolution of caterpillar into butterfly and how it relates to where we are right now as humanity.

Exploring how we invite in the new when we really don’t know what that will look like or how we will be without all the old modalities, practices, people and places that have populated our reality to date. 

Our caterpillar style living was perfect for us in the past, but many of us are hearing the call to move and evolve by creating the personal alchemy necessary to evolve. Just like the caterpillar, we need to release what we have been, the ways we have known in order to be-come, to expand into what is next for ourselves, and for humanity. It’s time.

It’s time to listen to our heart’s instructions even though our minds don’t know what will happen next. Beginning by noticing what is feeling depleting and static in our lives, moving into the stillness of our own hearts to take stock of what needs to release, and finally, choosing to embody less of the old (caterpillar), and more of what is next (butterfly). 

This is an invitation to listen to your own heart and ask, show me the beauty beyond the beauty I thought I knew.

In this episode host Christine Pensa explores how we can move through the polarity of solution and problem with more ease and grace. It’s been a trope that we don’t truly change until a problem, a dis-comfort or a dis-ease comes up in our lives. Then we set out to “solve” it. That’s not necessarily where we get tripped up, but we often use the energy of “trying” or “solving” something, which puts us on the same frequency (and in direct polarity) with what we originally perceived as a difficulty in our lives. 

If we continue to loop with a “problem” in polarity, then we get trapped on a disempowering frequency, where the solution we crave continues to evade us. 

Rather than walking a never-ending loop, we are called to sit in the stillness of ourselves to find the clarity that our own source medicine holds. “Let the waters settle beloved, for it is then you will find the clarity you crave.” In that space we begin to recognize the limitations we have taken on as though it is our own story and even believe it is written in stone. It is time to free ourselves from thought forms we perceived as solid and release them from our beautiful bodies by embodying the medicine we are here to be. Igniting our superpower of choosing to take whatever action is needed in a more efficient and streamlined way. 

When we align with that sweet spot within and let the waters settle, when we allow our own source medicine, we invite ourselves to become something organic, new, and at the same time, infinitely more of who we have always been.

This episode sprung from the poem Observer Status (see below). It’s an invitation to move from an unhealthy observer role to a more healthy discernment of where external “authorities” make sense for us and where it is simply a program being run on a loop. As always, sacred self care means we are willing to take responsibility for ourselves. 

As things in our external world become more visible, our role as passive observer becomes less palatable. We are being asked to consider ever more deeply, what are you choosing now? How can you turn up the volume on who and what you are here to bring to the world? 

Noticing, observing if and how you might be unknowingly be letting your divine expression remain untold. It’s time to get up off of your seat and express through your art of living. 

~Observer Status ~

Consider beloved 

All the ways we have been relegated to the role of observer 

Taught to be content, watching the dance of life unfold 

Narration by self appointed experts, few allowed onstage, a puppetry of anointed ones 

Consider beloved—who did this choosing—designating us as audience?

While the powerful stories moving through our divine expressions remain untold

Time to leave our seats

Time to remember how and what we are here to sing, to dance,  to paint in this, our unique, infinite, ongoing art of living 

Time to embody the cosmic song of life being sung through us 

~

We know it’s time to wake up from who we thought we were and begin to thrive, and to live in harmony with all living beings. In part four of a story series, host Christine Pensa considers the evolution of sacred story and what that means for us right now on this Earth. 

This episode explores these questions; What stories are we continuing to give our attention to in the external world? How do we notice the purposeful distraction and realign with what we know we are here to embody? How can we take the beauty and internal heart expansion that stories can bring and leave behind what doesn’t serve us? 

The new story we want to materialize now is one that we can choose to weave and spin into this world. Remembering we are these divine points of universal light capable of spinning and weaving together a blanket of golden threads across the world — all by more fully embodying the love that we are. 

It’s time to walk out of old stories, and recreate this world the way we know it should be. We can choose to become the new story of this Earth together, and it's more beautiful than anything we have been led to believe. 

Much love

Elaira Flow returns for what organically became part two to our original episode 151. You can find that episode in the show page archives (Episode 151 The Curren-sea of our new businesses with Elaira Flow).

Elaira brings over 20 years of experience as a trauma informed somatic business coach, a healer with extrasensory abilities and an architect of new business paradigm that is necessarily holistic, including all aspects of ourselves. Over the years she has observed trends and directions of business and what is thought possible through structure only, which often does not work. Her work is an invitation for us to approach business (and life) holistically. 

The spark that lit this joy-filled conversation was Elaira’s instagram post about the clarion call to move into being a leader in our own lives, rather than accepting everything outside ourselves. Self leadership capacity is one of the things she focuses on in her work. She shares that in the new business paradigm we are the leaders of our own lives, claiming both that freedom and responsibility for ourselves. 

This year opened with a powerful new frequency in which many of us are hearing. It is a call to step away from simply accepting what has been, and being filled with what we don’t want, into more of what we want to see on this Earth now. Elaira invites people to notice and compare how much of their day is spent accepting life, and how much time they spend per day “crafting life,” dreaming, choosing, paying attention to what they truly want. 

Elaira has crafted a model of 8 capacities, all of which are holistic, reaching into our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual bodies. She calls our businesses, the dress you put on these healed aspects of yourself—learning and recognizing your capacity covers it all. Aligning our energetics, our blockages, our nervous systems so the mind and the action steps can flow, rather than staying as Elaira says, “in familiar hell.” She says if we create from the brain only, we continue to create what we know and we do not step into the dreaming because we become sidetracked by the “greed of how.” 

Capacity work does not mean we will never encounter fear or doubt, Elaira says, the difference is that we will learn how to hold more, both the “good” and the “bad” so nothing stops us from moving through in alignment with ourselves, with flow and with ease. With pioneering work like what Elaira is offering, this is how, together, we change the world. So it is.

My guest in this (love) full episode is Jarmila, Transparent Crystal Spirit Guide, Blue printer, Soul master healer, and human issues energy healer. As Jarmila shares; “Through my work I have found that my soul originated from the Prime Creator, the Infinite Mother Goddess of All Creation. At the soul level my choosing has been of healing divine service through the physical representation of sacred feminine and  to participate in co-creating of new path-ways bringing freedom, higher consciousness through many healing modalities.” 

The episode begins with a be-moreing meditation. We continued this incredible, expansive conversation when I asked Jarmila to share her experience of the Coherent Field. It’s difficult to summarize, but in part Jarmila emphasized the need to remember our original genetic lineage. That it requires discernment, it requires being fully present, and it needs our own feedback and awareness of how our own brain and central nervous system functions, and where the interruptions come from. It is the intent everyday to exercise our “sovereign free will being-ness in accordance with Universal law and Mother Earth sentience.” It is the discovery of what it means to be you as a unique individuated creation. As Jarmila says, “That is your beautiful artistic opportunity and investigation to follow your call.” 

Love in Action was at the core of our discussion for me. I know that Jarmila approaches healing through love in action and as she says; “Healing is a process of an energetic and spiritual alignment at all levels. You are always looked after by beloved Prime Creator. This planet is a sacred planet.”
