Introduction
Hello everybody. My name is Noah. I am here to connect with this community of likeminded people and grow in my authenticity, leadership and capacity to serve humanity during these prophetic times of transition and awakening.
Since 16 years of age (currently 29 - turning 30 this year) I have been on a spiritual path for awakening, understanding myself and why the world we live in is the way it is -- in its challenges and goodness. Two happenings set me off on the path. The first was the ending of my first relationship. I was shocked to find out that love didn't work the way I was taught. Growing up, I had no one to model healthy relationships, so I did my best, but it didn't work out. The second things was that, even though me, my family, and people I knew in Stockholm, Sweden, had "the good life" in terms of material possessions, people were going through burnout, divorces, and generally seeming stressed and unhappy despite villas, cars, summerhouses, computers and more... Something didn't seem right and that's when I started asking questions. Eventually, a book on buddhism landed in my lap and after reading it I made the conclusion that I was unhappy because I had desires and wasn't enlightened. The next logical step was to meditate a whole lot.
After a decade into the journey and a lot of solo meditation practice, I had many profound experiences in meditation, learning a lot about spirituality from teachers, books and videos, and I even had a kundalini awakening at age 20 that catapulted me into a profound experience of non-dual, awake, and loving awareness being the source and truth of reality under the illusion of separation. However, none of the peaks lasted and I was struggling with depression, anxiety, fear and low self esteem during most waking hours of my day apart from when I was meditating.
I was about to give up on my path, but that's when I learned about human developmental needs, the nervous system, the attachment system, and generational trauma. Before knowing about this I believed the only reason why I was suffering to be that I wasn't enlightened and had desires. I wanted to transcend and leave this human life behind, because I believed there wasn't anything but suffering here. Needless to say, that belief faded away quickly and the roots of my many personal challenges outside of the meditation cushion became clear.
It's been 4 years since and after doing deep healing work in tandem with the practices for awakening to higher consciousness and psychological growth and maturation, my understanding, experience and vision for myself and how I serve the world has radically changed. Today, my mission is to serve the world with maps and direct experience of non-dual awareness and energy on a foundation of regulated nervous systems, healthy attachment systems, psychological wholeness, maturity and real world engagement in community and service to the whole. I deeply believe in a model / system for healing and transformation that addresses our developmental needs from conception into our age 7-9, includes the psychological process of maturation and growth during our teens and adult age, and includes the higher / spiritual capacities of our beings and souls. Without it all, it seems fragmented.
That sounds like a lot (and it is) and that's also why I am here with you guys. I am here to find my voice, my message, and most of all an authentic clarity in all that I have learned and experienced.
I have had the privilege to study and grow under the guidance of some amazing teachers and mentors over the last 4 years and I am incredibly thankful for that. I stand on the back of giants. During this time I have also had the privilege to combine this work with plant medicine (Ayahuasca / Yagé).
The 8 ayahuasca ceremonies I have been part of and the deep containers I have worked in for healing and awakening have shown me the magic of humanity, our the natural meaning and purpose we have in community and the love, compassion and spirituality we have the potential to embody when our nervous systems are regulated, when we feel connected with each other, and when we feel connected with nature and the universe at large.
I have a sense that this is part of the foundation of the New Earth we're all longing for. I'm here to grow with you all. Thank you everybody for making this space a reality. I look forward to connecting with more of you and growing here together.
-- Noah
