In this episode @SriMati reflects on time spent as the student of gurus in order to explore how we see ourselves in relation to others. We are all seeking love, connection and meaning and we are all informed by our individual experience. So why are we so quick to cancel a person when their belief systems differ from our own?  How do we manage disagreements with loved ones and spiritual teachers in a space of loving neutrality? How do we stay in a frequency of respect and compassion, able...

In this episode @SriMati offers tips, tools and a guided meditation to help us become radiant and positive lights in these tender, challenging times. How can we show up for the people who matter most to us and how can we summon the courage to face our own mortality, understanding that doing so will vastly expand our experience of this lifetime? In modern western society we deny death and are therefore ill equipped to process it when it comes. But rather than treat this transition as a...

In this post-election episode @SriMati reflects on the times in our lives when we get fixated on outcomes and offers a different perspective on how we can adapt to change, creating space for evolution and expansion.

Each life form created in perfection, no life form better or worse than any other. This is a process that is way beyond any...

In this special episode for the opening of election season @SriMati speaks of the beauty and power of not knowing. In these tense, tumultuous times, as the world holds its breath for a result, we have an opportunity to tune into the vibrations of our taught, held and imprinted beliefs and move through them into expansion. Human egos look for absolutes. Having something to cling onto gives us a notion of certainty, but these are false mental constructs that become energy blockages and...

Do you have the courage to step into all that you are? In these trying and uncertain times @SriMati speaks on the vital truth of what it takes to own your own power.  We have been programmed to believe that systems (financial, political, educational, correctional, medical) have the answers, and that some other being (political or otherwise) is going to arrive with the full awareness of how to solve personal, political and global issues? But these systems are failing and we, as individuals,...

What is going on, from a spiritual perspective, when people throw stones from glass houses? Without personal judgement, Julie muses on what it is that gives us a sense of entitlement or superiority that leads us to act upon our judgements in the on-line realm and on social media? There is an agenda that is seeking to divide us right now and Julie reminds us that we are multidimensional beings. Each of us has been many things in many places! This is why the spiritual truth of treating others...
