It's my last few hours in SF. The tour is over. I'm sitting in one of my favorite cafes thinking about the trip. Taking in what I have accomplished. Letting what I have learned about myself during this time settle. After a month away, it will be nice to sleep in my own bed, laugh with my housemates, and have a home cooked meal. More to share soon. But for now, it feels like a time to sit with everything with gratitude.

There is a study by Santa Cruz University that compared historical views of looking out across an ocean or lake versus looking out across land. The study said that looking across these large bodies of water instilled hope, and that you could see and feel infinite possibility. Having the opportunity to do that this weekend did just that. It alleviated some fear I had over how this crowdfunding campaign would go. (Link in bio) Made me think about what success is for me, and to me. It's was the reset I needed to put a few things in perspective. Little bit of caffeine before I set out on the road back to the Bay. I hope you join me tomorrow in San Rafael for a beautiful Sound + Breath gathering under the stars with Faye Wilder, and then on Thursday in SF at StudioMix SF for a Heart Opening Vinyasa Flow followed by an integrative Sound Experience. Then! Sunday in LA for a sound immersion at JAM .

Lots of opportunities to hug it out!

Asking for help is hard. Especially when that help has a dollar sign attached to it! I think that’s the hardest part of running this crowd funding campaign. Limiting thoughts come in about my own worth like: If I don’t make my goal, what are people going to think about me? If they don’t donate, does it mean they don’t believe in me? 
Then, I think about all the traveling I am currently doing to promote the campaign. The limiting thoughts come crawling in again: Man.. what if they cant see donating because I am traveling? I wish I could tell everyone that these trips actually pay for themselves and would not be coming out of the fundraising money. 
The way I combat these limiting thoughts so they don’t paralyze me is to actually acknowledge them and allow them to have a voice for a VERY brief period of time. It’s not easy. Mostly because it forces me to witness my own insecurities, and who really wants to do that! Ha! But if I didn’t, it would fester and grow, and I probably would have given up on the project a long time ago! But I’m not! And I am not giving up on you! Consider donating $1, $2, or $5 to my campaign to help people relieve chronic disease caused by stress. Sound Healing is a non invasive way to empower people to relieve stress and take control of their health story.

Thank you!
