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 ...
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!
Another live episode here without ads for Locals! We touch on a BUNCH of stuff, including Trump's transition, possible FDA appointments, RFK Jr., letters we've gotten about reproductive rights, was Harris or her team afraid to have her go on Rogan, a deep dive into COVID infection fatality rate and what to do about vaccines, and MUCH more. As always, audio version can be found wherever you get your podcasts!
And when the world tells you to lower your head
and submit in silence to how things are, and always will be, lift your voice instead and sing bravely of how things can and should and will be ..
Because that song is why you are here ..

+Would like to know in advance when these are going to happen. Especially helpful since I'm in a different time zone. 😁
So I was inspired after today's supporter Roundz to see what I could do with this - a parody of awakening. What the heck: Sung to the tune of "Breaking Up is Hard to Do" by Neil Sedaka (link below)
Waking up is Hard to Do
Mu Mu Mu
Down, dooby-doo, down-down, Crown chakra
Down, dooby-doo, down-down, Heart charkra
Down, dooby-doo, down-down
Waking up is hard to do
I search for truth, Enlightenment
Eternal peace that’s Heaven sent
I chant my mantra ‘til my face is blue
But waking up is hard to do
I try so hard to see the light
Meditating all through the night
No visions nothing, so it must be true
That waking up is hard to do
Chorus:
They tell me what I seek is already here
If I surrender it all will be clear
I see my guru and then
Instead of waking up I find myself just watching porn again
My ego sings a lonely song
What the f*** am I doing wrong
But every morning I just start anew
'Cause waking up is hard to do
Chorus:
I’m looking for the real me behind my eyes
Consciousness...
