Hey friends! Welcome to Season Two of the New Age Tour Guide podcast! This season I’m intentional about one thing, connecting with those who have a goal of living with more lightness, more peace and more joy.
Main episode starts at the 5:30 marker.

I’m not HOLDING and of the upper frequencies consistently, all the time yet, but I will speak to what I’ve noticed as I practice.
I’ve noticed myself debating if I’m living from JOY or ACCEPTANCE.
I think the confusion comes from the picture that has been painted by The Matrix—the media, marketing and especially the high-profile messengers—about what JOY looks like.
While I studied Yoga/Yoga Therapy, we spent time with the Vedas and the Bhagavad Gita (sacred texts from the Hindu spiritual tradition), and in the Gita there is a strong distinction between joy and happiness that I feels serves us very well as we are raising our consciousness.

In this episode:
Exploring the distinction between happiness and joy.
Inspiration from the movie Inside Out on how “Surface Joy” differs from “Soul Joy”.
Two resources exploring the connection between emotions that may be creating barriers to holding the frequency of JOY!
.
Depending on where you are in your awakening journey, the last five years on planet earth have given us PLENTY of reasons to not consistently be living from Joy, and in my personal experience it’s because we haven’t appropriately mourned.
Reconnecting with JOY has become a top priority for me, which means I am visiting the frequency of grief, sorrow and sadness, temporarily, to see where energy (emotion) has gotten stuck because I’ve haven’t mourned.
There have been moments, periods or situations where I was too caught up in the anger, fear, pride or on holding the frequency of COURAGE to give myself the space I needed to FEEL the heavy emotion (energy in motion) the sorrow and I need to let it go, to put myself into motion to get this energy moving through and out of me.
I’ve found that the process of mourning can take on so many different forms, sometimes I write it out, paint it out, bike it out, sometimes it’s yoga or reiki and sometimes I am working with a dedicated energy healer for things I can’t clear on my own.
I’ve even been layering in projects that pay me to move the energy! I teach yoga on a casual basis at my local studio, I have part-time seasonal gigs with a local RV resort as their gardener and I’ve been spending the spring months working in a local garden center/greenhouse.
And, as I write and record this season, I can see that more capacity opening up to hold the frequency of JOY as I talk it out.
The things I grieve, mourn and feel sadness about might be similar for you, or they might be different.
Wherever you are, I hope you to find ways to get THE ENERGY MOVING through you and out of you, in order to hold the frequency of joy more consistently.
