After more than 2 decades exploring both eastern and western methods of self cultivation, I started to reduce my body of knowledge to something more essential at its heart, and explorative in its application.I stopped focusing on the techniques, and started focusing on which qualities the techniques were igniting in me and how those qualities might be useful in other areas in my life and how I might apply them.
I broadly break my approach into 4 main categories: physical cultivation (all things to do with bodily development and care), internal cultivation (bringing the process of opening and releasing into the internal bodily landscapes), cultivation of the mind (including development of the imaginal spaces), and finally exploring the context within which all this development takes place: non-duality.
Join me as I dive into the many discoveries I have made along the way, as well as interviewing many of the super interesting people I have met in my travels and through various practice circles.

It's time for the non-dual episode! This week I am talking about this topic that is a rather tricky topic to talk about. When we start leaning into these principles, the mind can easily grab hold of it and use it to excuse a whole bunch of gnarly behaviour, and we obviously don't want to end up like that guy.
Nevertheless, it's a topic that needs to be broached, as it's talking about how we relate to reality itself. It's a reasonably deep/big episode, so strap yourself in!
