We talk about "sovereignty" all the time... we hear it all the time... and then we witness words and action in disalignment. But why? From a science perspective, our brains and nervous system LOVE routine. The nervous system does not care of it is healthy or not, because we use routine to gauge change, and in the primal brain (brain stem) change means danger. We often confuse the brain and the mind, and there are two distinct classes of people: Dualists believe that the brain and mind are separate. Monists believe they are one. True, it is a bit more complicated, but we are stripping this down to its bones in order to see the roots. I digress... Sovereignty is easy when we apply it to the outside world, but are we truly sovereign if we are slaves to our conditioning? So... what do you believe and why? Are the brain and mind the same? Are they separate?

As we begin to explore what the word "sovereignty" means to each of us, id like to bring something up... It's incredibly easy to look at someone else and judge them for not walking the same way you do. Are you able to honor, truly honor, someone else's sovereignty? Are you able to sit in the discomfort of knowing you know nothing about someone else's path, or the path of society as a whole?

How we start our day sets us up for how we move. What morning rituals or practices do you have? Don't think too hard on it.... I'm an energy person, so I focus on fixing my own energy before I leave to deal with people. For me, this create ease of discernment and an ability to respond rather than react.

It's been a minute, everyone, but we are back! The timing is perfect, as usual. Tell me the most impactful lesson you have learned in the last month.... How has that shaped how you view yourself?
