"It is said that what gets your attention gets you... as in, you know, it's what you become. That's pretty radical So what's your focus, where does your attention go... your thoughts, words, energies and actions?
Anyway that's what's got my attention this day and I'm aiming at an upgraded version of how I am currently operating. Prioritizing my goals and responsibilities and doing the things that will liberate me of my self made burdens that I may fulfill the dreams I am dreaming. I have big ones! I know we all do!
I know I can be and can do better in so many facets of my thinking and doing. Anyone else feeling the call for an upgrade in focus, and attention... in the spirit of what you're becoming?"

Nectar Medicinal Bass Drip

This Ecstatic Dance soundscape is a water medicine ceremony for dancing your prayers to.  Meant to evoke the energy of bioluminescence.  Something that really resonates with me about it, is that the magic of it is that it can only be revealed in the darkness.  So jump in, swim, float, go with the flow, go deep, and find solace in the return to the shores where the water meets the earth.

Bioluminescence Ecstatic Dance Night Swim

🔥 Shadow Dance 🔥

Another deep, dark, and delicious journey at my signature event, Shadow Dance, at the Yoga Barn, in Ubud, Bali. ❤️

I've been hosting Shadow dance for over 2.5 years, and somehow it sill keeps getting better every time. 🥰

131 incredible souls came out last night, to dance with their shadows. To express. To connect. To feel. To be free. 🔥

I'm so deeply humbled and honoured to hold this space. It's truly incredible what happens on this dance floor. The tears. The screams. The bliss. The connection. The magic... ✨

I'm so grateful for the love and support I receive from this community. Thank you for seeing me. Thank you for showing up. Thank you for dancing. 💃

And thank you so much to Meghan and the incredible team at the Yoga Barn. 🙏

See you at the next Shadow Dance... February 10! 🔥

Love,
-Toltech-

Temple Of Love 🛕 House of Eros · Thornton, Colorado · 2/10/24

Recorded live for Ecstatic Dance Portland at The Den, 2/14/24

Loving other's and receiving love from them is amazing and wonderful, but it's important to love ourselves, first! Visualize opening the back of your heart chakra and receiving the golden light of love from the universe. Let it fill your entire being until you are overflowing! Then you can give all the love you want without ever depleting yourself first, and you're so used to receiving love that you won't reject it from another. Fill your own cup to overflowing then you can give freely from the saucer...

Ecsstatic Dance - Self Love Valentine - Portland, OR - 2/14/24

Recorded live at a private camp out event in Puna, Big Island Hawai'i .... amidst wild humans and domesticated ferals, the Year of the Dragon was officially slayed with beats and heat.

Live at PZ 24' mix by djCatnip

"how to train a dragon" is inspired by the wood dragon Chinese/Lunar New Year energies.

the wood dragon is unique as far as dragons go, because wood represents the energy of spring/renewal/child-like newness. this wood dragon stomps, plays, dances their rainbow body into the through the world & beyond, discovering boundaries & wisdom through direct experience. the energy can be impulsive, clumsy, and destructive in a way that is not malevolent. the mother of wood is water, so self-reflection can support conscious self-possession/sovereignty/liberation for the benefit of all.

everything i learned about wood dragon energies, i learned from Gregory David Done of Tigers Play Astrology & Chinese Medicine. His blog post is a helpful read for navigating the energies at large in 2024 [link below]. 

"Wood Dragon is the moment of mind, clear perception, just before thought arises." ...what a beautiful sentiment to dance with; to return to an always-new moment where anything is possible.

http://www.tigersplayastrology.com/tigers-play/the-laughter-of-the-universe-qi-in-the-year-of-the-yang-wood-dragon-jia-chen-year-20244722#comments?fbclid=PAAabx8AGuwbmPZoghKXO30CB0uIZaLkcSLrA03xYgr2jQUIzJbj4hdVJ3bTE_aem_AdRK2TlRqxUGljQ5XxPMrXn6-OjTPa8feaT1azbSuJ04foWyuGiN2cwzxf-l1YBNwkM 

the following is paraphrased from Gregory David Done’s articulate skillful musings...

The Yáng Wood Dragon is called the “Laughing Dragon,” for Yáng Wood represents impulsivity, birth, youth, spontaneity, playfulness, innocence, flexibility, humility, gentleness, and creativity.  It is the baby dragon, hatching from the primordial egg.  

Yáng Wood is the energy of the chick breaking through the shell, the sprout bursting out of the seed.

The baby Dragon must break its shell to fly into space.  It flies to discover its own edges, its own limitations, its own boundaries. 

Dragon Qì is a paradox that cannot be defined other than to say it has unlimited creative potential.

Dragon Characters infinite potential is meaningless without a path. Above all, Dragons need training; and they must follow their own way and never be controlled. 

one of the greatest spiritual lessons we can learn this year is to just let go. And, laugh; laugh at everything because it is all absurd.
