PRIMAL

God, grant us the power to use the voices we have been given

Forgive us our trespasses

Om Namah Shivaya

Destroy to recreate our world

Allah-u-Akbar

Praise be to Allah

God is great

Dear lord, give me the courage

To stand with, and for my brothers and sisters

Jai Ma Durga, Goddess Kali

Ride the tiger and roar

Give me the wisdom to take action

 

It matters not where you were the day this chapter began

It matters what you did when the time came 

No more memory mutations

Dressing up history into what lets us sleep at night

Be uncomfortable get busy

It’s time to clean up the messes of mass hurt and hatred

No more you first after me

No more gag order, silence and strangling

Mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers wailing

 

Primal is my rage

Primal is the stage

We find ourselves in

This time and age

 

Primal is my fear

Primal is my love

For you, he/him,

They/them, she and her

 

Enough of the white noises

Of the white voices of supremacy

The oppression and repr...

Present Moment Awareness With Mary Gordon

How much are you moving around these days? Do you have an exercise, yoga or workout routine? Do you have something in place that integrates movement in your day to day lifestyle, especially right now?

I met Mary Gordon around 6 months ago at an event in Malibu, CA. She guided us in gentle movement and I never forgot the experience. I knew there would come a time when I would call on her to collaborate and share her guidance with you, and the time is here – now.

Present Moment Awareness with Mary Gordon

Mary has worked in the field of addiction, recovery and counseling for 30 years and has served as the Director of the Betty Ford Centre for 16 of those years.

Yoga Nidra with Craig Villani

Richa Badami
Yoga Nidra with Craig Villani
26:16
 

In Sanskrit, "Nidra" means Sleep, and "Yoga" means Unite. "Yoga Nidra" is a conscious and awakened way to fall asleep.

Yoga Nidra is an ancient and well known meditation and body-mind therapy. With step-by-step calming, vocal guidance, the instructor gently guides you to consciously experience unity with your physical body, gently allowing your body to embrace rest, then sleep.

If you have never experienced Yoga Nidra, I invite you to have the direct experience yourself with my friend, Yoga teacher to Yoga teachers, transformational life coach and spiritual guide – Craig Villani. I have had the honor of being led by Craig in Yoga Nidra Meditation many times and rather than tell you how incredible the meditation is, I would like you to experience it for yourself.

This is my personal, favorite meditation for my family and I: Yoga Nidra with Craig Villani

Ever since we have had to shelter at home, there has been a distinct loss in the quality of my sleep. I find myself up late at nigh...

In a time when so much seems outside of our control, unmanageable and uncertain, let us take a collective breath and pause. Let's take a few moments in this meditation to learn how to chant the Universal Prayer or Gayatri Mantra in Sanskrit.

This mantra is from the ancient Indian texts called the Vedas. Vedic chanting has been recognized by the United Nations as the oldest unbroken oral tradition for over 5,000 years. In this meditation you will be guided to learn how to pronounce and recite the Universal Prayer or Gayatri Mantra Chant in the traditional way.

Tapping Innate Wisdom

Each and every one possesses the innate wisdom and inner technology – to heal and transform. These are stressful times and yet, when we pause we can find all we need to be self sufficient right here, within us. We sometimes fail to recognize just how whole and complete we are, just as we are.

I spoke with my friend and Certified EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) Practitioner,  Bev Nerenberg and experienced a session in tapping with her today. The technique is simple, it's effects are profound. I will be tapping everyday for the next 21 days and journaling the impacts of it for myself.

Here is a short meditation on tapping in, awakening and activating the innate wisdom and inner technology of our body. By physically tapping on the meridians, the channels of energy that move Chi, Ki, Prana or Universal Life Force Energy through our physical body, we encourage the restoration and renewal of our nerves, organs, glands, mental thoughts and emotional patterns.

Bev has shared the backgroun...

Liquid Gold Meditation

Liquid Gold Meditation
29:47
 

Get ready to deepen your breath, heighten your awareness and take a visualization journey. Activate your third eye chakra to connect with collective consciousness and assimilate the physical and cosmic planes of your being. If in the last meditation you entered the eye of the storm, now you can BE the eye itself and deepen your stillness and calm.

Prepare to access the portal of health and wellness for yourself and for all of our brothers and sisters on this planet – especially those who are sick and need it the most. We are grateful for all the caregivers, emergency care workers, doctors, nurses and physicians assistants. Each and every one in service of raising consciousness on the planet right now, we bow to you.

These are precarious and tender times, and a time to pause. I hope that you will take a few moments to listen to the Liquid Gold Meditation and share with your friends and family. I hope that you find it useful.

In service of your health and happiness,

Richa

Enter the Eye of the Storm

Richa Badami
Enter the Eye of the Storm
21:09
 

We are in the midst of a torrent of current events. Some of us find ourselves isolated and alone. Some of us are at home with our family and need to shelter in place. Wherever you are – whichever part of the world – there has never been a time like this before.

This is a time to remember that we are all connected. The veil has been lifted and we confront the nature of our collective consciousness. Just as millions and millions of tiny droplets make the ocean, so does each of our individual consciousness comprise the collective consciousness. This convergence now is visible and it is not what we expected.

Even so, this is an invitation for us to go within. Can we see this as an opportunity to get still and enter the eye of the storm? The eye of the storm is the quietest and calmest place, while still being part of it. The distinction is that it stays still – it watches – it remains the witness, without taking on the role of the rest of it.

Stillness is also required for health and he...
