I made you something đ
The School opens soon, and I've created a free membership tier where you can: attend all the free classes I'm teaching, easily access replays, join private discussion forums and meet other members.
Dear friends,
We can do this.
With sufficient courage, we can face our pain and our health challenges; we can heal our social wounds; we can carve a path through the looming economic crisis. Working together, we can arrive at practical solutions for healing and freedom that meet the needs of our time.
To achieve our goals, we need - to begin with - to understand human nature. OUR nature: what weâre made of and how we function, both physically and spiritually. This is the focus of the Core Curriculum I will be offering inside the School for Living Science.
Knowledge of the whole human organism - made of body, soul and spirit, and understood in the context of its whole environment: society, planet and cosmos - allows us to become tuning forks for truth and beacons of healing and freedom.
As a launchpad for this mission, Iâve created a free membership tier inside the School (which is opening soon) and you are warmly invited to join today. The only âcostâ is that you will have to create a member profile with log in details.
Benefits of joining:
Youâll be able to view all of the free classes I'm offering right now in an organized fashion and in YOUR time zone, and easily add them to your calendar.
Youâll be able to RSVP to events, get notifications when replays are published, and join a PRIVATE discussion forum with other members.
No more searching through your emails to find replay links, either! Everything will be easily accessible to you.
If the following questions inspire you to embark on the great adventure of seeking the truth about human nature - YOUR nature - then I hope you will accept my invitation so we can explore these topics together in earnest.
What is the true nature of the human being? We are clearly more than the merely material elements of our physical body.
What are we to make of human consciousness, and the intelligence permeating all living phenomena, including us?
And how can a deep understanding of the material and spiritual realities of our nature help us catalyze new healing impulses that can effectively guide us through our current health crises?
I donât believe I have all the answers, but I do know that together we can discover them. After 16 years in private practice and 7 years teaching online, I am being called to open a new kind of School.
A school where:
We forge our own path through the current health crisis, inspired to seek true knowledge of the whole human organism directly from the source - ourselves - instead of blindly following âexpertsâ or âtrusting the scienceâ of academic institutions that have been captured by state and corporate powers.
Governments donât get to tell us what we can learn, how we can learn, who we can work with or what we can do with the knowledge we acquire.
We learn how to think with reality so our efforts to heal effect real change.
Motivated individuals are given practices and processes to develop the self knowledge needed to thrive through life without needing to rely on âexperts.â
Practitioners learn how to address each unique client as an individual, instead of treating disease labels and symptoms.
Free classes and Open House Zooms coming up.
Over the next two weeks I will be offering some Open House zooms for those of you interested in possibly joining the School so you can get clear about your learning options and ask me any questions you have.
Upcoming free classes include Secrets of Fascia (May 28th) Pain and Its Transformation (May 29th), and Mysteries of Blood (May 30th).
In this last class we will explore the connection between blood and the human "I" or ego, disease and degeneration patterns associated with poor blood circulation, and how this knowledge can help us "think with" the human organism in order to see a path to healing and regeneration that's just as spiritual as it is physical.
This class on blood - more than all the others - will help you understand what "living science" is and how this knowledge can help us to become co-creators with our bodies for healing and freedom.
I'm also hosting a "State of the Union" on June 4th to ask - and attempt to answer - three critical questions with you:
âś What is the chronic pain and disease epidemic trying to teach us?
âś What is the role and responsibility of practitioners today?
âś What is the role and responsibility of the individual?
As you probably know if you've been hanging out with me for even a little while - I call myself a pain advocate. I donât mean this in any kind of sadistic sense, obviously. I'm a pain advocate because pain avoidance and fear of pain are, I believe, one ROOT cause of our current health crisis.
Underneath most of our attempts to heal are the impulses for pain avoidance and symptom suppression - including all of the âhealthyâ things we try, like fascia release, cold plunging, breath work and eating well.
When pain and illness visit us - it is an invitation to listen more deeply to the needs of our soul and spirit; and of our physical body; and also, to each other and to this planet; to become even more present; and most importantly, to wake up to something critical before we find ourselves in a pit that is so deep and dark we canât see a way out.
Pain and illness are the call to responsibility; and to courageous truth seeking - as individuals, but also as a society.
We can do this.
We can do this for ourselves, for each other, and for humanity as a whole.
If we remain open minded, devoted to the truth and receptive to the teachings of Life herself...we can do this.
I will publish the class replays here on my Substack, and let you know when the School opens - but I do encourage you to join the free membership.
I believe it will be a much better experience than relying on my emails if youâre inspired to join any of the free classes.
See you inside!
