The Sovereign Breath: Scraping Off the False Self

  The Sovereign Breath: Scraping Off the False Self https://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-sovereign-breath-scraping-off-the-false-self--71955071 Have you ever felt crushed by the weight of a story you didn't even write? So many of us are walking through life carrying luggage packed by other people. We let the world's definitions of our culture, our capabilities, and our future dictate how we move. But what if the secret to your ultimate power wasn't found in fighting those definitions, but in simply dropping the bags? Today on the podcast, we visit the ancient wisdom of the Akoban people and a young princess who was taught how to breathe past the ridicule of her peers. We explore the tension between who the world demands you to be and the quiet, sovereign power of who you choose to be. We aren't adding anything new to your plate today; we are taking the heavy things off. Call to Inaction: When the cup is empty, it can finally be filled. Stop pouring your energy into a c...

Game Changers- 1Hood

Image
Now, I knew that my brothers  +jasiri X  and  +Paradise Gray  were in Pittsburgh NationBuilding, but to see the video shines a long needed light on the work that they have been doing. These brothers have moved the concept of hood media to another level. By setting up an academy that arms young people with media and the skills to control their images, they have empowered a generation of thinkers that will definitely have a say in the direction are communities go in. I only hope other youth groups embrace the model and begin to use media to build the images that they want to see rather than be victims to the images that are being produced for them and the world to see. Media is the new front lines and I salute 1Hood for building our Special Forces. checkout the video: Watch "Game Changers: The One Hood Media Academy" on YouTube Nuff said Peace & 1hunidyears

Capoeria a model for new world

Image
Image via Wikipedia Play capoeria/ And with each Roda watch life/ Change before your eyes/ Being blessed to have been involved with capoeria, I have a model of life that works for me. Capoeria is an art that teaches you how to play rather than fight. Don't get me wrong you learn to defend yourself, but the vibe is different from other martial arts. In capoeria you view conflict differently, by you making it a game you are more willing to try new things. In trying new things the art becomes you as you develop your style of play. This feeling , this idea can't help but to come into your regular life. Your life begins to become your roda (ring were we play) and you are constantly in the game. Knowing the rules of the roda or life makes the game more spectacular as you do your moves, and take advantage of what is being given to you. i had to recently look at my life and remeber my training. Some time when life seems to become overwhelming I have to take advantage of the rules ...
