BEING is better than perfect 🌕

By Lian Brook-Tyler

People often ask me how I manage to fit it ALL in… the ceremonies, the circles, the rituals, the reading, the creating, the learning, the dancing… given I’m also a mother, wife, teacher, rescuer of ginger animals and much more.

It’s because I focus moment to moment on who I’m being.

Tonight for example, despite being completely aware that it was full moon earlier (hence this photo through the branches of our dear horse chestnut this afternoon), by the time I’d been to Kung Fu, it had slipped my mind.

I walked through the gate at 11pm, saw the moon and thought “Oh yes, it’s full moon… I haven’t done a ritual.”

So despite the fact it was late, cold, and I was tired from my first Kung fu session back after Christmas and Covid, I dropped everything. Literally… my car keys, my bag, my clothes, my trainers.

I stood naked under the moon’s beam, soaking up her numinosity, asking her to witness and bless my devotion, intentions and decree.

After a few minutes, I was complete, so I picked everything up and sauntered back into the house like I’d just driven home naked. By now, my family don’t bat an eye at the things I do.

It was far from a perfect full moon ritual but it was me being every last drop of who my soul came here to be.

Living from soul since 2017🌳✨♥️

By Lian Brook-Tyler

There was a point, five years ago, when I consciously devoted myself to living from soul.

I declared it aloud to my coach.

It was one of the scariest choices I’ve made, not least because I didn’t really know what it meant or what it would require of me.

As it’s turned out, it’s made so many decisions since crystal clear and typically easy (but not always, sometimes soul requires real sacrifice).

You’ll know if you’re being called to this choice too… if you are then I want you to know that for me, despite it being a scary choice, it was the only choice, and it turns out… it was one of the best choices I’ve ever made.

This has truly been the most meaningful, liberated and abundant five years of my life.

Living from soul since 2017… come on in, the woodland’s fine!

A wish for the year ahead…

By Lian Brook-Tyler

I resolve, on this eve of the new year,

to love

me.

To love my less good side,

the awkward way I say things like “How are you?”

…twice,

the places I’m still hiding my greatness

for fear you’ll turn me away,

the way I snap when I’m focusing and someone asks me what’s for dinner,

and the times I breathe and don’t.

I resolve to love

you.

To love the ways you judge me,

misunderstand me

saying I mean one thing,

when I mean another,

and the ways you see me more clearly than

I see myself.

But most of all, I resolve to love the part of me who struggles to love all of this and more.

And yet, it’s not my resolution, because I gave up making resolutions in 2012, when my father died and the Divine kept showing me I was loved and all I needed to do was love.

Ten years on, I can tell you that my part of the deal has proved harder than it sounded then! It’s a deal I make over and over again every day of my life. Some days, like today, happen to fall on New Year’s Eve, and so it sounds like a resolution but it’s really a decision.

A decision to let Love be the change I want to see in the world.

So on this New Year’s Eve, I make no resolutions, but I’ll take this opportunity to make a wish for the year ahead… I hope you get to see what a gift you are, I hope you get to be the gift you are, and most of all, I hope you get to feel how loved you are.

Oh and I love you.

That’ll do it for another day…

Kung Fu: An Embodiment of what I teach ❤️

By Lian Brook-Tyler

“Embody what you teach, and teach only what you have embodied” -Dan Millman

As hard as it is (and it’s *really* hard at times for this neurodivergent who struggles to tell left from right), I’m SO grateful that I have the opportunity to more deeply embody what I teach everywhere else in life in my weekly Kung Fu class.

I know that being willing to be terrible at Kung Fu strangely, magically, paradoxically makes me a much better guide and teacher of spirit, soul and sovereignty.

Huge appreciation to my sifus for guiding me through another grading despite my struggles and injuries – they’re truly wonderful, all of them.

P.S. it’s like Where’s Wally spotting me amongst the sea of men!

P.P.S. If you’re feeling the call to do life your way and want me as your guide back to yourself, Waking The Wild Medicine, beginning early 2022, could be for you. Register your interest here and we will reach out to arrange a conversation with me or Jonathan soon.

Also if you haven’t watched last year’s Wild Medicine webinar, that could be a good place for you to start.

The deepest, darkest journey into the Feminine yet…

By Lian Brook-Tyler

🖤 I wrote the words below almost three months ago as we begun the first circle of Waking The Wild Feminine… today, as I prepare for our closing ceremony I can see it was indeed the deepest, darkest one yet.

All of us are coming out of this initiation as very different women to the ones who entered it… we emerge into the world with wild hair, bloodied knees, and broken wide open to Love and Truth.

She would have it no other way. 🖤

“To discover who she is, a woman must trust the places of darkness where she can meet her own deepest nature and give it voice… sharing it with the women around her as she comes to a true and certain sense of herself.” Judith Duerk

This morning we begin Waking The Wild Feminine… it will be the deepest, darkest one yet.

SHE desires it… I submit.
