๐ซ Guiding Humans in "Humaning" with Ease & "Pease" through this little bit of Life, and Rock & Glow in the Universe ๐โโ๏ธ
In serious words:
๐ Find grounding and serenity through the unknown, the overwhelm, and the uncertainty of life
๐ Navigate life's transitions
๐ Migrate from stuck to thrive (while enjoying the flight)
๐ Quit marinating in stress, self-doubt, self-loathing, not "enoughness", fe
IT'S TIME.
To let go of that idea that made you feel small and shrink into your shell.
It's time to shine like the motherf**kin' glorious bitch you are and unapologetically let your very own magic do its thing!
Do the world a bloody favor and let it see you! It needs YOU.
Deep breath... give yourself a big hug... whisper a little love into yourself... and go!
Whatever happened, you're amazing, you're worthy, you're fabulous, you're unique, and you have stuff no one else can deliver the way you do. You've got this.
PS: Shine can look very different from one person to another. Doesn't have to be all glitters and rainbows. You get to define!
***s
Time to take some altitude...
5 years apart... some things change, some don't!
What are your common denominators?
Which serve and which don't?
Season changes.
Whether literal or metaphorical, they're always a great opportunity to pause, take a breath, slow down, look around and reflect on a couple of things.
What was happening?
What was beautiful, what do you want to keep ?
What are you grateful for?
What's happening now?
Is it working?
What are you a hell yes to? A f**k no to?
Are you on purpose?
And what is that for you?
And if you're not sure, these season changes can be a great simmering time and opportunity to practice BEING.
Being with what is.
Being with the uncertainty. The grey.
Being with the discomfort.
Surrender and trust in the unfolding.
It will unfold. Trust me. 100% of the time. How long it will take depends on how much you resist.
What is it that you can't yet see this Season?
And if you still need clarity, I'm here ๐
WHAT DO THEY DO FOR YOU?
Here's a couple of observations I've had today about dropping expectations:
1. Little to no space for dissapointment. And it's easier to lean into curiosity, cause you're leaning out of this illusion of certainty for what you expect. And curiosity drives away from judgment, so yeayy!!
2. I feel so abundant when I got into something without expectations because if I didn't expect I'd get this or that, whatever comes feels like a freebie ! Like omg, all these things happened and I received this and that and all all things and it all feels like a surprise bonus. And if I'm able to see that, I feel abundant AF! So double yeayyy!!
How about you guys?! What do you notice when you let go of expectations?? โ๐
Yes, YOU.
You're that powerful.
The answer is always you.
That's where is starts and that's where is ends.
Not enoughness just got slightly sexier... ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
BONUS Day - WIRING THE NEW ERA
Real&Raw Challenge is a wrap!
But truly, it's just the beginning.
The kindergarten phase of it all, I get to play some more, AND, take you along for the ride!
Just like every relationship, everything Life is a dynamic process, like a river flowing along constantly moving and shifting, and slowing ๐ and raging and waterfalling and on and on!
Sometime we freeze and the river gets dry. The rain always return, the glacier eventually melt with the return of the sun ๐ and the stream comes back more pure and clear than ever!
The beauty is that we get to draw the river banks, the river bed, the contours, define and redefine the boundaries as we flow along on the unpredictable canoe of Life!
Looking forward to raft together โค

EMOTIONAL & PHYSICAL REGULATION
Whether we are conscious about it or not, we constantly pendulate in and out of our window of tolerance. Especially when we're NOT aware of any of it!
And that keeps us on a chronic more or less intense level of stress that affect us on all areas in ways we don't even suspect!
Regulation, as simple as it can sound, is a process that can honestly be the night and day difference in the way you are, feel and operate in the world, positively impacting every single aspect of your life as a ripple effect!
If you'd like to learn more about it or this sounds like something you might need, reach out!
Life as you dream it begins with a simple decisions to take responsability for your vision and make yourself your #1 priority !

Real & Raw - Day 6
Bonjour and bonsoir,
I wanted to share something that has been very much present for me today, and it might seem like not much but it really touched me deeply, in several levels.
At my work place, there is a beautiful big tree. On top of this tree is a gigantic eagle's nest. In the nest, was a baby, that I was lucky to see grow, take his first clumsy steps on the nearby branch, gradually and shyly adventuring few inches further and further from the nest every day, call his parents for food and encouragements, get his balance, explore its faculties, flap his wings over and over for weeks before taking his first flight, which I got to see the absolute joke of a landing, melted of adorbzness at the sight of his distress after that landing, calling around and immediately getting answered by one of the parent to come reinsure him. I named in Glen. I watched Glen through his insecurities and moments of glory, gain confidence, and take family trip above the ocean, drawing mesmerizing circles of this United trio. And one day, Glen was gone to his own destiny (to the salmons of the great North ๐๐คฃ). And that was beautiful.
Mom and dad come back every year when they've had success with their nest (they mate for life), and for the past few months, I've been witnessing the happy couple refurbishing, consolidating, redesigning, redecorating, bringing branches the length of a small human! And then, they started carrying back mosses and small sticks. That means, they are making a "cup" which will hold an egg (or several)!!
And then they started too take turns sitting in the nest, which translates..egg(s)!!! A coparenting set up that would make every human envious! They'd call each other early in the rounds at times for bathroom break and made sure to do their dirty dids on the other tree next door ๐คฃ (impressive! Better stay away from that tree I'll tell you that!).
And one day, pew pew pew... ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฒ babies!!!!! ๐ฃ were born and it was so exiting!!! Maybe it was a Glenda?? Mom and dad were bringing fresh fish (kid you not I saw one of them bring a whole LIVE fish still flapping around in his claws into the nest!). I even saw them unite into a powerful flight and fight off another intruder eagle teen to defend their catch and progeny.
Everybody was so exited. For the past 2/3 weeks, not much activity to report. Parents were sporadically hanging on nearby trees, both sitting on different branches few "floors" apart (we started joking that they has a argument, happens with kids around eh!?) and my excitement was growing, I thought.. this is the calm before the storm, these chicks are growing strong and independent and any day now, I'll see one of them taking its first leap to the branch!! I even saw a baby feather ๐ชถ on the driveway proving me that they were gettin' movin'!
But today, the Eagle lady specialist that is in touch with me for conservation purposes sent an email. She said the parents sitting only on the other trees means they've abandoned the nest. A neighbour confirmed my reports of no sightings of them in the nest. And the one and only reason a parent would ever do such thing... you guessed it... that little feather I saw wasn't them gettin' movin'. That little feather was very likely all there is left to remember little Glenda.
I did not see that coming. And that left me somewhat devastated. It's silly isn't it. ๐ฆ
Last year someone told me eagle was my spirit animal..
I feel reminded that, life keeps on doin' it's ting, with it's profound implacable neutrality and like these thoughtful dedicated parents, no matter how well you do, how much you try and how plenty heart and efforts you put into something, you never truly get control.
To stay humble in the face of Life. Nothing's ever granted.
I feel blessed for being given the magical opportunity to "Glen-ce" so closely into the charming adventure of these majestic creature's intimate dynamics.
Heart full of many things, but one of them is for sure these enchanted memories โจ
Thanks for reading, and remember to appreciate and cherish what you love most in every moment, and know that it is never yours. And it's ok. โค
Love and bisous.
See in the comments a couple moments into Glen's teen life.

Day - 2 / Online Raw Expression Challenge
Reflecting back, I keep finding more and more reasons and explanations behind this fear.
Some personal, some societal or cultural, even some generational or from the dawn of times!!
Children are to be seen not heard.
There were times people, woman even more so, would get beaten, hung, stoned, casted out, persecuted, deemed hysterical and all sorts of things for simply having an opinion of their own, let alone a "modern" or original one, and speaking it up!!
No wonder this fear is a damn big deal !!
In the end, it all comes down to safety love and belonging...
And that is where a good chunk of the works lies, finding just that within.
๐ What comes up for you on this topic? How does fear show up in your bodayyy ?!๐

Rawness on a platter ...
CONTEXT: on my training zoom call today with Elementum Coaching Institute (Class of 2021), my ninja teacher/coach Preston Smiles had me record this very video live and from scratch oit of the blue in front of 90 people!! Before making it a 7-day challenge.
The challenge is to show up and post a daily video sharing something more or less personal, present and alive, with the intent to break through this phobia of mine at last and step into my next life's chapter in my most natural and free fearless expression.
Side note, I raised my hand for Coaching on this, so however uncomfortable this is, it is what I need, and ultimately I DID ask for it haha!
So,
- proud of me
- didn't die
- excited and terrified
- stretching and growing
Elementum Coaching Institute is no freak'n joke I'll tell you that!!
๐Drop a ๐ฅ ๐ฅ ๐ฅ bellow if this resonates and tell me what comes up for you around this topic of fear speaking up in public spaces ๐

GREMLINS ๐บ & FAIRIES ๐งโโ๏ธ
๐งAs I'm diving deeper and deeper in the meanders of the mind body and soul, some stuff take their chances to pop to the foreground, and I get to point the flashlight of awareness on those things I've been doing somewhat mindlessly, melted in the motions of life without a second guess, and today this is now very clear to me:
๐กI get to choose.
I get to pause before I rush into doing and creating and operating.
I get to check-in with all the inhabitants inside this human suit and see how everyone is doing and feeling and from what place we're gettin' ready to roll!
๐ฆ๐งฎAnd if that place isn't quite the pretty space of peace, perspective, love, authenticity, integrity and tutti quanti, but rather looks like a cranky fearful gremlin tantruming around for attention, bathing in its own irrationality and stress, well whatever comes out of that is sure as hell not going to look very masterful, is it now?!
๐ Good news is, I've got some favorite regulating tools in that kit of mine, that can greatly help in taming that grumpy grem' and recenter in the core of me, full of rainbows ๐ and unicorns ๐ฆ! Isn't that beautiful?!
๐I'd love to know, where do you default to and operate from and what are some tools that help you come back to yourself ? ๐
There is no one nothing no where to be but with what is. Even if it's s**t.

The AHA that keeps on Aha-ing...
AHA 1:
True-self-expression:
- Is not this ideal version of us we made up based on the highest/bestest moments of our (or others) life
- Happens & evolves with each moment in the +/- following sequence
1. Awareness = Recognise what is & what's needed/wanted/most aligned.
--> What does this moment call for? Who do I want to be & what do I want to do about it?
2. Do that!
3. Be cool ๐ with it. Accept & assume it. BE it & with it.
4. Move onto the next moment & repeat. That is the essence of you and it evolves with the moment.
AHA 2:
Letting go - Meaning - Purpose
- Why is it so damn hard to let go of all the things & the to-do-list and doing doing?!
--> Cause they are meaningful!! Which connects with purpose & we all need a sense of purpose! So how f**king scary to let go of anything remotely linked to your purpose?!
- But then..what IS my purpose?!
The answer lies in the result of AHA 1 & AHA 2 having an in*******se โค and boom --> AHA 3 was born! Mazelt tov!
- My ultimate SOLE primary purpose IS simply being in my truest expression, in my essence & who I am meant to be as I landed on this planet!
Than.. big AHAs orgie & they all started reproducing like stray chickens: ๐
AHA 4:
- Based on AHA 3, I need more "nothing-time", sit with me myself & I, and the entirety of everything, listen to the silence, listen to the world, be in stillness & with the breath.
- Create space, the space that holds Everything & all possibilities. Connect, receive, create, integrate, align..
- Open within a greater capacity for ALL THE THINGS that are so meaningful!!
AHA 5:
- This, is where I naturally, effortlessly flow into all the secondary purposes, they come find me.
- Cause I no longer am in resistance, rather flowing through life as it flow through me.
- Letting go of rigidity, the doing achieving ticking boxes, moving forward & fast, ending up riding life as if dragged by a car tied to a rope VS comfortably sitting at the window, enjoying the scenery with a cocktail & a cigar! ๐น
AHA 6:
- Bring the being into the doing. Be the Life I create. Celebrate & THANK the beauty of it all ๐พ without rush.
Now, embody the s**t out this knowing ๐คฃ
๐How is this landing for you?! ๐ Let me know!! ๐
Are You Truly "Self-Expressed ?!
That is a big topic amongst humans!
"I want to be fully expressed"
"I want to be more myself"
"I am not feeling like myself"
"I want to be the bestest highest version of myself!"
"I want to find my truth or be in my truth"
All this is beautiful, and..
What IS yourself?!
Do you even know?
How do you define your truest self?!
Is it always the same?
Does every moment call for you to be one specific immuable version of yourself regardless of the circumstances?
Or is it possible that part of being truly yourself starts with being fine tuned to what is within, right here right now, listening to your intuition and needs in this very moment, and be/do just that?
I believe true expression evolves with your experience of life, moment after moment.
And when you allow yourself to just sit with yourself for a hot minute, unapologetically be with what is present for you and what you truly want or need in each and every moment, WHATEVER that is!! you are truly FREE, and truly YOURSELF.
So, here to your truth and my raw, unedited, unrefined self IN this very moment, imperfect as I am, practicing articulating my thoughts, and pressing publish in full acceptance and alignment, trusting that sharing myself as is with y'all is what is best, because that is what feels most alive for me in this moment!
And before you go, tell me, what is this moment calling for ?

BEHIND THE DOOR...
As I step out of one diving journey quite literally ๐คฟ, here I am, diving right into the depth of another, finding myself at the doorstep ๐ช of the past, ready for some deep ass self-healing.
And though there sure is a bit of a terrifying aura โซ, a colorful omen ๐จ brings promise at dawn.
Such gratitude for the epic oh so special container ๐ฌ๐๐๐ฅand the humans that come with (or is it vice versa?!) ๐ซ
Feeling some freak'n momentum building up in the shadow... ๐ฅ

DAY 5 - LAST TOOTING TIME
Toot of the day: I'm colourful !! And Brave! And throughout these past 5 days, I learned something and grew a little more.
I made it! And I didn't die! And I even had a little bit of fun with it! Ain't that freak'n cool?!
So, here, like my good friend
Always says: เธเนเธฒเธเธธเธเนเธกเนเธฅเธญเธเธเธธเธเนเธกเนเธฃเธนเน
Which sound something like : [milang miru] (and forgive me for butchering that)
And means: if you don't try, you don't know
Knowledge VS Wisdom
DAY 4 - TIME TO TOOT ๐ฏ
๐ก๐คThis challenge has made me reflect on quite a few things, even lead me to a couple breakthroughs, and one take-away ๐ from this is that there is something truly FREEING ๐about just showing up with little to no expectations and letting go of what others will say, think, judge etc...
People judge๐ฉโโ๏ธ. We all do it at one point or another. It's human. But:
โWill that change who I am?
โWill hidding change that fact or empower me or you in any way?
โIs letting fear drive my actions bring any more happiness in myself?
โDoes that judgment say something about me...or about them?
๐กWell, my answers to these brought me to the following conclusion๐ง:
You are who you are. Whether you're happy with it or not, no damn external factor will ever do anything about it. First step is awereness ๐ and acceptance. And acceptance is freedom. From that place of love and compassion for yourself, you can access choice, make decisions and take actions aligned with how you want to show up for yourself and in the world. That's where you create your life. ๐จ
๐ฆธโโ๏ธ๐ฆธโโ๏ธ That's how powerful you are โ. So, celebrate ๐พ the s**t out of YOU and gift ๐ the world with your uniqueness and beauty, because just as you get and receive so much from others, they need your light in their life too! ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ๐ซ๐ญ๐ฌ
DAY 3 TOOT DA HORN LET'S ROLL !
Showing up for yourself conditionally is one thing, showing up for yourself unconditionally in a whole other rabbit whole. Making my way through it, one challenge at a time. One laugh at a time. One day at a time. It's a process, it takes patience, willingness, presence, courage, humour, hummus, compassion, self derision and many other things that grow with you along the way. It's a magical path. And some days, it's not. And that's OK.
Feeling blessed to curve my own within the fascinating meanders of all of yours. Together we rise & shine in babbles & bliss!
DAY 2 TOOT TOOT!!

The world isn't complete without you. Own your greatness because no-one else can do that for you, shine your light because you'd be surprised how many out there just need that very special and unique light of yours that no-one can ever replace!
Shout out to my badass coaches, fellow forever students of the work and great beings within the Elementum Master Coaches container for stepping forth, inspiring and challenging us to dig out our best essence and spread it like but'er๐ง๐โโ๏ธ!elyse1

Rasa Flow Yoga
When you feel like you suck at something, you might. But it doesn't mean you're bound to suck at it forever. You're not married to your sucking at stuff. You gotta work on it. So, next time you feel s**t about yourself that way, just replace "I suck at" with "I am currently working on".
Even if your one and only action is to comment below, it's a win and you're already a step closer to take your happiness into your own hands! (Cause no-one else can do that for you).
Today, I had an important difficult unfamiliar conversations with someone dear, that required a vast amount of exposure, vulnerability & courage. Crack open from the deepest of places, face bare overlooked truth, unshield in the open, allow in authentic acceptance.
This made me realise that the inner strength this type of situation takes, is far beyond that which is required to overcome our "common" blocks that prevent us to take a stand/speak our mind, do something you've never done before, speak in public, do or say something eventhough you know it won't win unanimous support, expose yourself on social, feel lazy/defeated/reluctant/uncomfortable/you name it about something & do it anyway cause you know the outcome is worth it, feel/think something nice about someone & appreciating them out loud for it eventhough it makes you feel awkward, take risks, let down the guard we constantly put on in our daily life, crack those chains that keep us from authentically embracing & accepting who we are as we are, under the masks(well, that's confusing nowadays!๐), same chains that keep us from taking action, to reach for what we really, secretly or shyly want (or to allow ourself to dream about it), that make us experience fear, shame, blame, embarrassment, awkwardness, cowardness, regrets.., that keep us small from ourself.
And though I don't have all the answers, I find it immensely valuable to reflect on this & take a moment to acknowledge, that despite how much we think we still have to figure out, how far we have to go, how hard this and that is to conquer, we are indeed far more brave, capable, strong & powerful than we allow ourself to know.
So I invite you to take a closer look at all the great overlooked challenges you've overcome in your life -nevermind, just even in the past year!-, give yourself a well deserved pat on the back, and let that add a brick to the wall of confidence and faith in yourself you are and can build everyday.
In short, if you are/have been breaking through even one of these moments (and you have!) well think for a min about where is what on the hindrance scale, & the true extend of your own potential.
