When we wake up, our brains are in the brainwave states of alpha and theta, the states of calm, receptivity and creative attunement. This is the time when intuition is heightened, and natural insight is at its most pure. It’s here in this subtle space where the bridge between you and your subconscious mind is most accessible.
Your brainwave states are operating at the optimal frequency for visualizing and actualizing what you most deeply desire in life first thing in the morning.
When we look at our calendars, emails, social media, and messages immediately after waking up, our minds quickly move into the more alert brainwave state of beta, bypassing the crucial time needed for your brain to be in a state of wakeful relaxation.
It can be so hard to resist the call of outward duties and responsibilities, but when we set aside even a few minutes each day to be in this powerful and subtle space, infinite magic can unfold.
The art of building a personal, daily morning ritual is a simple but profound tool in transforming our lives to create a deeper sense of creativity and personal power. Committing to devotion to self allows you to own your morning and ultimately the direction of your life.
Throughout my life I’ve felt the incredible benefits of daily practice in every aspect of my life, from my sensuality to my self confidence; but last year I was experiencing so much resistance to staying consistent. I was going through a deeply challenging time - a separation from a partner and the death of my father - and knew that grounding into the present moment each morning was imperative for healing. It was through a deep devotion to exploring my inner landscapes while being held accountable by a group of friends that Collective Practice was born.
