Trust, Surrender, and the Threads of Awakening

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.

I've been reflecting on how traditional spiritual models can leave us feeling lost, stuck, or even scared, and how Pierce's approach offers a more inclusive framework that resonates with my own experiences.

We share insights on the different threads—emptiness, energy, unity, and psyche—and how they manifest in our lives. We discuss the challenges of spiritual ego, which I've grappled with myself, and discuss the role of psychedelics in opening new pathways of understanding. And we touch on the importance of embracing the unknown as the true entry point to the nature of reality.

Topics covered include:
The Threads of Awakening model and its impact
Trust and surrender in the spiritual journey
Navigating spiritual ego and its pitfalls
Psychedelics as tools
Embracing the unknown and the nature of reality
The integration and release of spiritual threads
Personal reflections on my own spiritual path
Practices to open the heart and simply BE

Let's do it y'all

July 05, 2026

I came home from work the other afternoon to find this precious trio (with mom) standing to the right of my driveway. They were so tiny! So cute!

In the middle of the night when your past misdeeds come back to berate you, you should do two things:

1. Honor the lessons and realize that it is because you're a better person now and be thankful of that!

2. See that persons who do harms against you and others are harming themselves more. Others are as yourself in the need compassion. Just as you needed compassion when you were in dark times, everyone needs compassion.

We are all a moment. We are not :that" moment, or a "future" moment. We are "this" moment!
