Modern Life vs. Ancient Wisdom

In our young infant stage in life we are thrown into a structured system that boxes us in. I somehow remember vividly my very first day of 1st grade. I recall it like it was yesterday, my Dad dropped me off at the sidewalk of the Elementary school. I was nervous and scared because I knew I was entering into the building on my own now. I had my back pack on and Transformers lunch box in hand, wanting to cry because deep down I inherently knew my freedom as a kid will now belong to a fixed program.

For the next 12 years of my childhood and teenage years I will be in a system that will be extremely similar to employment. A structured time table of when to show up, when to eat and when to leave. My intelligence will now be measured by an A-F grading scale. My creativity as an individual will now be molded like a product on a conveyor belt and I will be forever limited to my true capabilities.

I started working my first real job with paid wages at the age of 15. I now have logged in 30 years of working. In my younger days there were phases of working part time between school and figuring out what to do with my life, but all in all being employed has been a astronomical percentage of my life.

Looking back at my 20’s, I was so young and ambitious trying to prove myself to my employer. Such big dreams in my heart hoping to get a raise by a couple dollars throughout the year. Alarm clock buzzing at 4:30am five times a week just to commute an hour to work before the Sun even rises. How incredibly backwards is it to be in your deepest sleep just to be jolted awake by a obnoxious ringing alarm right next to your bed? From that exact moment you are now in work mode for practically the next 12 hours of the day.

Our friends in the 5th dimension The Arcturians refer to this planet as the “Blue Jewel” because when you look at it from outer space it radiates blue from all the ocean waters. I joke to myself with my inner voice and say well you can call it the blue jewel or the blue planet if you want but, why don’t you call it what it really is….. the “Labor Planet”.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want to sit around all day and do nothing just to lay around and watch movies. We do need people working in a thriving economy. I flourish off working hard unlike anyone you’ve ever seen. I’m just really curious if I wasn’t institutionalized to the bone from the age of 6 to retirement at 65, what could I accomplish on a personal basis? The freedom of creativity that I have embraced as an adult now that the shackles are off to some degree, what if there was system that nurtured creativity from the start? I think that’s one advantage ancient cultures had over us because they had no governments, no pharmaceuticals, no internet, no 30 year mortgages, no American healthcare, no social security numbers, no alarm clocks. The knowledge that they had was so advanced, the only logical explanation we can come up with is “well extra terrestrials must have come down and shown them!” Maybe so? Or is it the result of humans actually getting to develop naturally? At 18 years old they want us get out off the house and choose a career or go to college. We are constantly under pressure to produce and fall in line to this system our whole lives. Credit scores, yearly incomes, income taxes engraved in our lifestyle as if we’re treated like labor machines. The ancients got to study and stare at the stars, we get to consume toxicity and stare at screens. How backwards can we get in this modern age?? Can we at least dial it down a bit and go to 4 day work weeks or 6 hour work days? Heck they want to raise the age of retirement! How ’bout lowering it!

The true measurement of success is not how much fake paper money you can make a year, it’s soul development, which you can really make leaps and bounds of progress specifically here in the 3rd dimension unlike anywhere in the Universe. I get it, the harder the lesson, the more potent the medicine. Your soul welcomes the range of emotions that you can only experience here on Earth. Think about how powerful a smile is, a laugh, a tear, being nervous, being angry, what a ride this is isn’t it? These emotions were specifically designed only for the 3rd dimension. The collection of memories you have is knowledge for the spirit and that’s what drew you here. The tests of life that you will face are more gratifying than anything the 5th dimension could offer in respect to how challenging it is for a ray of light to be now stuck in the heavy load that is the human body with every move you make having karmic ties.

What if we were raised with spiritual type teachings and shown how to engage in a healthy mindset instead of a society that glamorizes endless deadly poisons like alcohol and cancer causing diets? What levels of consciousness could be unlocked? That’s why we have to compare current cultures to ancient time periods. I’m just now discovering in my own body that it has technology we don’t even know about or understand. This point in particular I will touch more on in coming years. It’s unfortunate I’m not a Father in this lifetime, that would give me the opportunity to walk them through channels of enlightenment at a young age that I never got and would be a way for me to pay it forward.

Being in a classroom as a kid stuck sitting at desk felt like a penalty. I struggled to concentrate because it felt dehumanizing, I was literally suffocating. I was the most active student during recess because being outside felt like I can finally breathe! We are told to get good grades then get a good job to dominate 60 years of our life, but it’s really your interactions with people that holds the true profit. I listen to many Near Death Experiences, there are YouTube channels that cover people telling their personal stories. You get a glimpse of what is showcased and highlighted when you enter directly into 5th dimensional fields. People come back into their incarnation after a near death experience with a burst of more light flaring from the heart and they are relaying to people in so many words how earth life focuses on all the most meaningless things. Parts of their life flashed in front of them and they see the influence of every action they take, how it directly effects a person or a animal. This is what Akashic is recording. Most times it takes an out-of-body experience for people to grasp this. What humans deem as successful, the spirits see as insignificant when comparing how worthless paper money is to the value of a positive helping gesture.

Have you ever had co workers that you don’t like or get along with? Well I’m sure we all do. However, when you see this person outside of employment and off the clock they are completely different. Their whole demeanor is now calming and welcoming, there’s no tension between the two of you and you say to yourself “I can be friends with them outside of work”. It’s because working brings out certain qualities in us that is way out of our true nature. Work is stressful, you’re under the gun constantly having to get results for the company. Doing it everyday and year around eats away at our souls and it turns you into somebody that is out of your own character.

The house that I live at is on the same property of where the landlord also lives at. It’s just us two, he lives in the main house and I live next door in a separate unit. One year ago he retired. I saw first hand how the shift in him drastically changed from a working man, then transitioning to a retiree. He used to be so distant and uptight while working full time 6 days a week. He’s so calm now, literally transformed into a whole new person. He looks so healthy and happier. Go figure right? The change in personality is no coincidence. I want to outline to you the potential humans can reach here in the 3rd dimension when we are more in our natural habitat. At our core we all are spiritual, but our environments deconstruct us of our purest essence. Now that he’s fully retired he went out and purchased an RV, travels around the country with his boat and leaves for weeks on end. When he’s at home he’ll spend time in the garden or he’ll do some light volunteer work for the city cleaning up graffiti or helping out in the parks. He carries zero stress and overall is just vibrant and healthier on every single level. After all these years his spirit is now activated.

Between the internet and institutions controlling our lives when you find free time outside of work it feels like you escaped prison. A Facebook post I had a few years ago I said “you know, life on this planet isn’t all that bad when you think about it, it’s actually amazing and beautiful outside of those 8 hours of work!”. Think about that. So here we are with access to unlimited information in the palm of our hands, but it’s the information that’s stored inside of you that’s far greater than any Google search. I strongly think that if the internet age never came along and we just smoothly continued from the 90’s that our spiritual knowledge and mental health would be insanely advanced right now. It would be so state of the art that if someone from 3000 years ago time traveled to present time they would look around and say “extra terrestrials must have flown down and shown you!”

It’s real difficult to accomplish spiritual growth on this planet because all we do is labor for worthless paper money. Our whole lives down here revolves 100% around our careers. I had a hard time finding time to balance everything in the beginning, but I do understand the attraction of the 3rd dimension in how it can catapult our souls into a higher awakening because earth challenges are so rewarding. I get it now though, spiritual advancement comes in many forms. Something as simple as lending a helping hand to someone who needs it or listening to a person with a open heart or sending a thank you message out of the blue to a person you know is worth more than any amount of money. Earth is so powerful because of the emotions felt that only can be experienced in a human body. We just don’t get that up there in the 5th, loving energy oh yes we do! Love comes easy up there because there’s no egos, there’s no jealousy, there’s no sadness. But it’s the challenge to feel love, to smile, to listen and to laugh when encountering Earth’s adversities. That’s the test. It’s one heck of a playground down here, but my God you have to enjoy the ride because you’re here by choice with a whole team of pure loving spirits supporting your every move.

If you can thrive here on Earth, you can make it anywhere. If you can grow as an individual and try to be of service to animals, people and nature in between a full time career that will consume just about your whole life, then you’ll get the real passing grade on the test of life, not a test on paper judged by a teacher.


Time Traveling with no Clocks

Picture your life without any clocks, completely subtract the concept of time.
Imagine the planet everything exactly how it is now in 2025, no changes except that numerical time does not exist. The Earth still spins, the sun still rises, and the birds still sing.

Now what if I told you “time is moving faster” and I don’t mean the hands on the clock are moving at a quicker speed than before. Because remember time does not exist. What I mean by saying that is (life is moving faster) not time.

What you are experiencing is 20 years of life now packed into 2 years. Three lifetimes condensed into one. More experiences means more soul development. Everything has been accelerated. The pace of life that our grandparents lived at does not translate in this era. That’s old technology. You can’t put a car engine from the 1960’s into a 2025 hybrid model. Newer technology always becomes lighter, faster and more efficient.

The stakes are much higher, but we can handle it because we are also healthier and more developed than people of 70 years ago so we have the capacity to handle the acceleration of life. This is why “time” feels faster.

You can also apply this logic to spiritual technology. Never has there been a better time in the 3rd dimension than this current period for individuals to grow spiritually. If you take in consideration what I outlined in the paragraphs above with time acceleration, combined with healthy outlets in every neighborhood worldwide for people to have access to natural resources, meditation and wellness activities you will see this is our time for humans to really kick into gear.

This was ignited in 2012. The Mayans somehow knew this thousands of years ago. Humans got caught up in translating Mayan predictions into end-of-the-world paranoia. That might make for a good Hollywood movie or a catchy news headline. The truth of it is, is that the Mayans predicted not the “end of the world” but the end to the old way of living.


The Weight of Your Own Aura

There have been some intriguing times in my life that I have felt the weight of my own Aura. These days we use terminology like “raising your vibration” when it relates to feeling lighter after a cleansing of some sort. You moved or shifted energy so there was a release, hence feeling lighter. “Lowering your vibration” relates to stuck energy which could result in feeling tired, dragged down or uninspired. So even though we can’t see the Aura with our limited human eye vision, there are ways we can feel it through personal moments that life hands to us.

When I was in my early 20’s I was working for a contractor in the trades. One of my coworkers was a couple years older than me and we spent those early years working together on different job sites. After some time he moved on to a better job opportunity in the same field while I stayed with same company. In the contracting trades you tend to work on ladders a lot, scaffolding, booms, scissor lifts and steep hillsides so everyday brings you a new challenge. My fellow coworker was a on job site that had 5 levels of scaffolding, he was on the the highest level when he slipped and fell to his death. He was 25 years old, just married and had 2 daughters. He was from a small town in my area, played football in high school and was very well known around town so it struck the community quite hard.

I attended his funeral that was held in the biggest church the town had. The whole church was crowded with people standing up due to there not being any open spots to sit. There were about 100 people in that church and with this tragic passing of the young man every single person in the building was sad, crying and had a heavy heart. I was in the mix of the crowd sitting on one of the benches. I was young myself back then, I didn’t quite know how to articulate my thoughts as to what I was sensing like I do now, but I was still able to feel and see maybe a bit more deeply than others. What I felt that day has always stuck with me. As people went up to the church podium to speak and honor the passing, I began to feel something. I felt so much pressure on my shoulders that it startled me. I kept looking over to my left and then to my right and behind me because it seriously felt like someone in back of me was placing their hands on my shoulders. The thing is nobody was there touching me. I understood what was going on when I thought about it on the drive home. With a room filled with 100 people all in sadness the weight of the room got thick and heavy due to so much sadness lowing the vibration. I felt it in my Aura that day, with Auras it’s more of a magnetic sensation rather than the actual physical touch that we normally feel.

10 years after this incident something like it happened again that was similar but in a totally different scenario. I use to have a 50 minute commute to work driving into the neighboring county. On my drive home I would start to notice that I was nodding off. It was extremely frustrating because I kept asking myself what’s wrong? Can I really be that tired? The feeling of nodding off for split second and then catching myself and shaking my head to wake up is scary. I wouldn’t say I was tired, if I can put into words I felt heavy. It felt almost exactly like it did that day in church at my friends funeral years ago. The Aura was worn out and quite possibly clogged. This heavy feeling during this particular time period in my life along with a few other happenings catapulted me into a life altering diet change. My energetic field was heavy due to my awful eating habits creating a low vibration. Again when I say heavy, I’m not talking in weight I’m describing energy. I felt the pressure of my own Aura and the pressure was draining my energy so much it was making me fall asleep during the day, a signal of some sorts for me to make a change? When I look back on it I think I was lucky enough to acknowledge my own personal senses and realize something was seriously off. This was in my construction days, way before my spiritual and meditation path. If I didn’t make the diet change I would not have gone down the road of becoming a sound healer. My body would not have been tuned up and ready for this type of work. That’s why I say something was trying to send me a message and give me a wake up call. Always fascinating how life events can line up for you when you analyze it later in life, but you can see by these examples how vibrations, energy and frequencies are so much more than new age terms if you closely pay attention.

Branching Out

This past weekend I attended the Sebastopol Health & Wellness fair in conjunction with their weekly Farmer’s Market, held in the downtown square area. These tandem events happen only once or twice a year so it was exciting for me to showcase sound healing for people who were interested. I brought seven of my singing bowls and a handful of eye-catching crystals. My demo sessions were at no charge – it’s more important for me to spread the word and promote what I do so I wanted to get as many people as possible in my booth and get them to walk away with a memorable experience. I enjoy giving people an exchange of energy rather than money in situations like this.

 

The next event I’m going to with a booth setup is the Sonoma County Yoga Festival at Somo Village in Rohnert Park, on July 8th and 9th. I will be there to represent Songbird Healing Center and Singing Bowl Healing. Songbird will have a couple of other healers joining me in the booth so this should be a great exhibition for us. Put this yoga event on your calendars and come check it out if you have time that weekend. It looks like it’s going to be a great festival for Sonoma County and the local community.

I also wanted to put out there that if your business, facility, spa/resort, festival, etc. has any events coming up and you would like me to do a showcase or demo of some type, email me or give me a call.


Hands of Gold

“Hands of Gold” is hosted by Songbird Community Healing Center in downtown Cotati on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of every month. I’m now a practitioner for Songbird and will be involved with these events along with other events throughout the year. If you can’t make a session at my office in Santa Rosa this is a great alternative to get a feel of how sound healing works.

There are also a nice variety of other healers there too. For a very small donation you can come in and get healings, advice, or readings done by outstanding practitioners who are eager to help you out in any way possible. The “Hands of Gold” sessions start at 7:30 PM and you can check out their website for more info on this and other events that are going on there daily. It’s fun, relaxing and a pleasant way to spend an evening.

Happy New Year!

2017 is here and I want to wish everybody a very Happy New Year! Let this year be the best year of your life. The past is nothing but a memory now and by putting ourselves in a good space physically and emotionally, getting older with each year that passes becomes such a gift and treasure to take in. I love getting older, life gets so much better as we gain wisdom and the appreciation for living and our surroundings becomes more valuable to our hearts.

I’ve been suggesting to people to write down your goals and what you want to accomplish this year on paper. Put the thoughts out there and release them so they don’t just stay bottled up in you. Keep that paper nearby and maybe read it every month and as a reminder to get everything you wish for in 2017. To me this simple exercise makes a big difference.

As far as what’s to come for Singing Bowl Healing this year, one thing that I want to do is have an open house for a weekend around March. This will allow people to come in and see the studio and get a taste of what all this great energy work is about. I will have food and drinks to serve and will be glad to answer all questions to explain and demonstrate what I do here at Singing Bowl Healing. I’m also in the process of getting T-shirts made, we are working on the design right now and will hopefully have the first batch ready in a month or so. I would also like to hook up with a farmer’s market so I can set a booth up for promotion this year and meet people face-to-face to tell them about sound healing.

I definitely need to advertise more this year, but it has to be the right advertising to serve me and I think meeting people one-on-one is so much more beneficial than just placing an ad in a magazine. The studio space is still getting better as I add more flavor of decorations and it’s gradually getting to where I want it. I want people to have the wow factor when they step in and I think it’s about 80% there. The plan is to have it at 100% by March. Other than that I’m going to continue to keep pushing forward with the energy work here to get you feeling in the best shape of your life. Thank you for visiting the website and reading this. Any questions? Feel free to call or email.


Getting Started

The Singing Bowl Healing Studio is complete and ready to raise the frequency! I have a lot of people to thank who have wholeheartedly put forth their efforts to get this going from the ground up. I want to thank my parents for all the support they have giving me. To have this project is my dream. Thank you for everything you helped me with to make this idea come to life.

I want to thank Rene Morales for the exceptional logo design and all the rest of the images that look sensational! A true friend for all the help through this process.

Thank you to Elvira Morales for taking the time to design and build the A-Frame street signs and for giving me ideas on room design. The signs are incredible, thank you so much for your time and effort.

Thanks to Zac Wheatcroft for the support, advice, and website design. I know there’s plenty more to come of those wise words.

Thank you to Jodi for having me at Sky Hawk Village. To think that I walked in there after a days work in my construction clothes, with no website, business cards, or any other proof of my business talking about how I’m starting sound healing with singing bowls must have been a bit unusual, lol.

Thank you for allowing me to have this at your shopping center which is the perfect place for me.

Lots of new crystals have been added to the room over the last week. More natural healing has been combined! I will talk more about this in the next blog.
