WITH LOVE, DANIELLE

I’ve been wondering how we could each collectively wake the f*ck up to the basics of Love. You too?  So, I have a little story about a monk and a sandwich to share. But first, I’m going to unpack the definition of Common Sense and rant for a minute—because humanity’s Common Sense tank is running on empty, and our collective shadow is louder than ever.  In this episode: What Common Sense really means—and why Common Sense isn’t common The difference between wisdom and opinion (hint: wisdom includes everyone in the solution) Why we’re stuck in polarization—and how to move beyond “us vs. them” thinking The collective shadow is OURS, not theirs. We all scoop from the same pool. MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: 🧘 INNER SUN Spring Equinox Meditation. Thursday, March 20 at 7am PT | 10am ET.

The Prayer of St. Francis is a magnificent prayer for becoming the Divine counterbalance. You can speak this to your Soul or the God of your understanding.  Bear in mind the universal law: “For it is in giving that we receive.” So we are taught by Saint Francis: “And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.” This isn’t necessarily literal death. It’s a dying of the old ways and our illusions of separateness. It’s the awareness that our oneness is eternal life.
