INNER ALCHEMY
About The Process
Two core universal truths of every spiritual and religious tradition and preserved in the cosmologies and practices of indigenous lineages are that everything in the universe is interconnected and that all sentient beings are encoded with the essence of Source consciousness (alternatively referred to as the Divine, Creator, Great Spirit, God, and many other names).
The essence of Source within us is the energetic frequency embedded in our DNA that resonates with universal, quantum or celestial frequencies of unconditional love, compassion, and forgiveness.
Our felt-sense experience of connection with Source is tangible and embodied, yet words are inadequate to describe it. To me, the frequencies feel like a continual soft light flowing into the crown of my head and traveling into the layers of my body, a soft and open heart-space, deep calm in my solar plexus, a quiet and spacious mind, and a sturdy connection to the Earth through the soles of my feet.
The Taoist alchemists teach that when we enter earthside as babies, we remain connected to Source through the soft and open fontanel on the crown of our head. As our fontanels close and we are influenced by various traumas, ancestral wounds and conditioning that reinforces the primary human wound of separation, we lose our connection to Source.
As all of humanity’s spiritual traditions teach, our human journey is about returning home to an embodied knowing of ourselves and all other sentient beings as interconnected vessels of Source consciousness.
Inner alchemy is one of the core pathways for returning home. Inner alchemical teachings and practices from an array of diverse Tantric, Hermetic, Buddhist and Taoist traditions are designed to transmute the physical, mental, and emotional patterns that reinforce separation and block our path home.
Woven through all of my offerings, inner alchemy tools and practices include any and all of the following: meditation, breathwork, somatic and movement practices, hands-on bodywork, compassionate guidance into deeper attunement to one’s own core essence, cosmological wisdom teachings, and use of plant medicine and other Earth-based practices.
While inner alchemy may seem like an esoteric or even far-fetched concept, it is, in fact, a very practical stream of universal wisdom. Its practices are beneficial whether you wish to heal from a longstanding physical symptom, improve mental and emotional clarity, deepen in relationship with yourself and others, and/or seek support on your spiritual awakening journey.
