Here's a little spontaneous live show I did earlier this morning from our family trip to The Sea Ranch (Northern California)...miss you guys, more soon!

From Sunday Zen on YouTube! Enjoy ❤️
Let's dive deep into the themes of trust, surrender, and the Threads of Awakening model introduced by Dr. Pierce Salguero in this live episode of Sunday Zen.

My 10 year old went to look at the Chinese Lantern Plant - "It's not gone Mum, it's changed into a tiny green lantern" 👀😲👀 I felt like the sun had just come out. Or more like it had always been out it was just I didn't see it ☀️
