Happy October, beautiful Earth 2.0 family. I wanted to take a moment to connect with you, share a little of what’s been happening in our world, and hear what’s happening in yours. There is so much I’m grateful for right now, and so much of it comes back to the people here. Thank you for being part of this community and for continuing to show up for yourselves and one another. We have just finished the most beautiful eight-week cohort with people literally from all over the world, pretty much on every continent. I’m still taking it all in. Getting to spend those weeks together, witnessing what everyone was moving through, and having a space where we could bring our whole selves—it means so much to me. For those who were with us, I would love to hear what stayed with you. What shifted? What are you bringing into your life now? We’re getting ready to release the next one, and I’m excited to share it with you. If you feel a calling to join us, just comment “RSVP” below. Everything is personally curated, so we’ll have a call together first to connect, hear where you are, and see whether this is the right next step for you. You can take a look here: https://www.upperaeon.com/pages/cohort2?r=5#top Tonight, we come back together. Our next State of Cohesion experience is tonight, October 7, from 7–8 PM Chicago time. We’ll move through our System Reset practices, breathe, move, and come back to iEssence meditation. We’ll also make space for what’s happening in our lives—the latest discoveries, the wins, and the places where we’re being asked to grow. This is something I love about coming together in Unity Cohesion. We get to learn from one another, reflect together, and bring what we’re experiencing into the way we actually live. Come as you are. I’m looking forward to being with you. Here’s our link for tonight: https://zoom.us/j/98796638618 Later this month, we have a conversation I’ve been waiting to bring to you.

I’ve always struggled with this (it’s held me back as a singer all my life 😅), and I recently learned that non-diaphragmatic breathing can play a role in my chronic cervicogenic headaches due to breathing improperly resulting in my head moving forward slightly (the cause of the issue) so I’m trying to learn. My current issue is that when I breathe in while sitting in a wall-sit position (hips to head against wall), there seems to be a lot of stretching sensation around my shoulders, especially around my collarbones. While my shoulders aren’t moving, the tension makes me think that they want to, which leads me to believe I may not be doing it correctly since I was always told that if your shoulders raise when you breathe, it’s not from the diaphragm, but it could also just be a result of my tight shoulder and neck muscles (a result of my condition). Please let me know if I can provide any more info, and thanks in advance!

As best I understand it, I've been thawing for the last 9 months and have been doing SE by myself almost daily during that time. But I am tired now. I want to take a break from feeling and just enjoy life without paying attention to my body. Problem is, the feelings are just there and bubble up and suppressing them creates pressure and discomfort inside me. How do I take a break? Is it even possible or do I have work through everything until the end now that I've opened pandora's box?

Earth 2.0 family, Our session with Sarah Grace was one of those calls that is difficult to summarize because so much of the teaching wasn’t simply intellectual. It was something we experienced. “One of the most beautiful teachings from the evening was Sarah’s concept of layers of support from Somatic Pioneer, Dr. Ray Castellino.” We explored a question that sits underneath so much of the work we do here: What if some of the patterns we keep trying to “fix” in adulthood began before we even had words to describe them? Sarah took us into the world of prenatal and early developmental somatics — exploring how our earliest experiences of safety, belonging, support, birth, family and relationship can become patterns held within the nervous system. And one of my biggest takeaways was this: Healing isn’t always about understanding more. Sometimes the body needs a NEW EXPERIENCE. A new experience of being supported. A new experience of being witnessed. A new experience of expressing without being rejected. A new experience of feeling safe while someone else is present. A new experience of being able to soften and actually LAND inside the body. Sarah described this as returning to the “blueprint” — the part of us that remains whole beneath everything we have experienced. And this is where the conversation became incredibly practical. WHY DO WE KEEP REPEATING CERTAIN PATTERNS? Sarah shared how unfinished experiences in the nervous system can sometimes appear later as repeating relational or behavioral patterns. We may intellectually know: “I am safe.” “I deserve love.” “I don’t need to rush.” “I can receive support.” Yet the body may still be operating from an older reference point. This is why insight alone doesn’t always create transformation. The nervous system needs an embodied reference for something different. THE POWER OF “LAYERS OF SUPPORT” One of the most beautiful teachings from the evening was Sarah’s concept of layers of support. The child is held by the mother.
