Messy, Luminous, Being Podcast

There is something I think we're all looking for...and that is a life that elevates us beyond the small self and into the most true and beautiful version of who we really are. A life where this connection to our deeper self is woven into every day. A life where we create and accumulate moments of illumination. This episode shares the method behind my own spiritual practice in messy real life. Moments of Illumination is a navigation system with three aspects of practice gleaned out of years of struggle to find space and time for myself. This way of practicing has shown me that most of our spiritual connection practice stands outside time and can be woven into life through sacred moments.  Join our lovely Moments of Illumination monthly membership to come practice creating moments of illumination for yourself. You'll get a drip-feed of guidance, inspiration, short meditations and breathing practices and so much more.  TAP HERE TO FIND OUT MORE --> https://mailchi.mp/sarahbhunt/moments-of-illumination

Our bodies are the holders of ancestral knowledge, ancestral feelings, ancestral wounds. In this episode, Tara Wild shares her journey with feminine ancestral teachings from Ireland and Britain, how we can heal our lineage and ways we all embody a place in the lineage. We are also ancestors. Tara's journey began living in London when she felt a deep call of the land and a desire to come back into felt connection with the cycles, seasons and wisdom of the earth. I loved this conversation about women's wisdom, stories of the goddess from these traditions and so much more. You can connect with Tara on IG @tarawild.

Come take a few minutes to remember yourself, to come back home. To remind yourself of what you've always known. This is where your energy really comes from, this place inside of you. This is where your true power is.

There are so many inner practices to choose from and work with.  In this episode, Sarah shares her reflections on a through-line which feels like the foundation of them all. Self-love has become a complex word and we all have different associations with it. Yet the reality is, we're still not very good at *doing* it. It feels like this through-line is also the basis of deep and true self-love. May this episode inspire you to see the deep truth and luminosity of who you are. xx s   Give yourself the gift of weekly Messy Luminous inspiration. It's free and comes straight to you.

In this episode, Sarah shares her reflections on the importance of stepping away and finding space for just ourselves. Integrating practice into messy real life is such a journey. But there are times we can also take ourselves on pilgrimage...for a walk, for a day, or for a bit longer...and rediscover ourselves in solitude.

When we are surrounded by man-made environments, it can be hard to remember that we ourselves are not man-made. We are beautifully wild. And that's why stepping out into nature, whether on a walk you do everyday, into your back garden, or into the wilds of the 'loneliest glen in scotland' (where I recorded this episode) can be a powerful reminder of the incredible living force inside of us and who we really are. Come with me into Glen Lyon and reorient your inner world back to your deep wild nature.

My son told me recently that the reason he likes to climb mountains is because at the top, you can really hear 'the great nothing'. My whole being stopped when he said that, because I know exactly what he means. The deep, expansive space. The great quiet that also lies within us. This is a fertile space. A stillness that speaks. And when we learn to quiet the noise of our mind, we can find it.   This March 2023 I am running my 4 week Messy Luminous Meditation Course online.

Challenges in our life are inevitable. We have been taught to wish for calm seas and smooth sailing in life, but the truth is, it is often the challenges that bring us the opportunity for deeper transformation.

Presence alone is healing. No one tells us this. We are taught that in order to heal our bodies, our minds, our relationship, we have to 'do' something more. Yet so often, the most powerful medicine we can give ourselves is Attentive Stillness. In this episode, Sarah talks about the meaning of effortless effort (wu wei), the power of our attention and how we can use simple attention or observation to heal ourselves.   To join the Awaken yoga morning challenge week, Feb 6-10 head to https://mailchi.mp/sarahbhunt/awaken-spring-2023 To stay connected, come hang out with me in your inbox... https://mailchi.mp/sarahbhunt/messyluminousbeing And to get your hands on the most delicious Cacao, head to www.cacaoamor.com, use promo code MESSYLUMINOUS for 10% off
