REAL magic on Firedance!

I do NOT expect or even want people to throw away their own models and philosophies and adopt mine.  What I do want is for YOU to have a philosophy of life you test daily, and are prepared to defend at any time and to any depth.  Your entire life is, in this sense, an experiment and an example to others.

To this end,  I expect students to empty their cups, CONSIDER what I'm saying and try the basic exercises.  NOT to sit back and "think about it."   Action is what reveals truth.   The mind is mostly good for helping you decide which actions to take to experience Truth.

So the "buy in" to understand what I'm saying is the action of the "Five Minute Miracle": stopping every 1-3 hours for sixty seconds of deep, slow, diaphragmatic breathing.  Do this, and you have grounds for evaluating my position and models.

One model is the Hero's Journey.  Not the best or only model of story, but it is closer to universal than any other I've seen or heard of (the way I teach it), and is also applicable to any life event or journey. Because of that, once you understand it you can actually fake WISDOM.   Its fun.

But the other basic chunk of the "Lifewriting" approach to life and story is the Yogic Chakras.  Any issue in your life can be connected to one or more of the Seven Levels, and as a structure, they again provide a perspective that is not just wise, but more complete than any psychological model I know of, while still being squarely in the middle of that "Seven Plus or Minus Two" range of human memory.  Again, once you understand it, it has INFINITE uses.

In some ways, you can't understand the Hero's Journey unless you ask "what is a Hero?"  In a way, a hero is someone who takes risks to fulfil needs or obligations, or in growing from one level of the game to the next.   The Chakras point the way to endless motivation, healing, energy, growth, and that "self-directed human evolution" thing that has fascinated me all my life.

And the FIREDANCE LIVE this Saturday will examine this from a unique and powerful perspective: linking the Three Centers to human motion.  Lock that stuff in TIGHT!
