THE REASON Interview with Susan Nichols

I am SO excited to share my latest interview for THE REASON, my collection of interviews with big hearted visionaries, leaders, teachers and healers about THE REASONS why they feel how they feel, love like they love and serve how they serve.

Susan Nichols is one of my dearest friends and greatest inspirations on the planet.
I love and appreciate her with my whole heart.
She shows us all how to vision a dream and create it with inspired devotion.
If you practice Yoga then you have probably used one of her inventions.
She is the inventor and creator of the Skidless Towel, the microfibre towel with silicon nubs that you place over your Yoga mat so that you don’t slip while you practice Yoga.
Her first company was the Yoga brand Yogi Toes which she sold 2 years ago.
If it were not for her clear Vision, her crystalline Mission and Purpose and her core Values, she might have let some of life’s challenges stop her from creating her Vision.
But she stayed in alignment with her highest potential and has manifested some incredible creations that the world deeply needs.
Her new creation is called New Hippie, a living brand that is raising the consciousness of the planet and it is so exciting and uplifting to watch her gifts continuously unfold.

A Cup of Tea with the General Manager of The Universe

GetFileAttachment

Today I had the great pleasure of experiencing the most beautiful and delicately refined traditional tea ceremony hostessed by my dear friend Sara, a Master of connecting with the Medicine of Plant Spirits.

Drinking Tea, she says is one of the most powerful ways of connecting with the wisdom of the land, people and spiritual energy of the place where the tea that we are drinking grows and has the effect of awakening higher states of consciousness.

We first smelled and then sipped about 5 little cups of Oolong Tea that she acquired from a Chinese friend who travels all over the world questing for the finest organic teas.

Then we smelled and sipped about 5 little cups of a Pu-erh tea from China that had been aged for over 40 years.

Each sip we sipped awakened the part of me that is awake, aware, alive and deeply appreciative of each moment and I found my vibration continuously rising and settling into an embodied realm of sweet happiness, peace and calm contentedness.

Before she poured the last little cup of tea she said,

This cup is for a part of you, a loved one or anyone or anything that you would like to connect with more deeply.

During the last week of leading the Vibration Transformation Cleanse I found myself intensely aware of the part of me that I like to call The General Manager of the Universe.

I first heard that cute, funny and true term for the part of me that thinks I have all the answers, knows what’s right for me and everyone else and wants to control everything internally and externally while doing an Emotional Freedom Technique tapping session with my friend Kate.

During the Cleanse I discovered how deeply exhausting it is to be the General Manager of The Universe.

So I gave my 2 weeks notice and am currently going through the process of passing the responsibility of micro-managing the Universe back to, well, The Universe.

During the Cleanse the gift of a book arrived in the mail from one of my clients.

The book is called The Surrender Experiment by Michael A. Singer and I have been listening to the book on tape and highlighting my favorite parts in the book every moment I can.

In the book he asks,

Am I better off making up an alternate reality in my mind and then fighting with reality to make it be my way?

Or am I better off letting go of what I want and serving the same forces of reality that has managed to shape the entire perfection of the Universe around me?

The answer to me is clear.

So when Sara went to pour the last cup of tea, I knew she was pouring it for the General Manager of the Universe.

I picked up the cup and before it even touched my lips, the General Manager of the Universe said:

I AM AFRAID.

I asked:

What are you afraid of?

The General Manager of the Universe said:

I am afraid that if I let go of control and do not micro-manage everything and everyone that everything and everyone will go out of control and chaos will reign.

I asked:

Is that True?

The General Manager of the Universe thought about it for a second and simply said:

NO.

And ever since then, the General Manager of the Universe inside of my head has had absolutely nothing to say about anything.

Make Peace with the Sea

dance2I AM IN AWE RIGHT NOW <3

I have all over body chills and tears in my eyes <3

This woman is one of my new superheroes and has tapped into a frequency that I vision myself fully embodying <3

Ever since some recent sightings of Great White Sharks in the glorious Santa Barbara ocean many people have been asking me:

“When you swim and surf in the ocean are you afraid of the sharks?”

And I say,

“I choose to LOVE all the creatures in the sea and know that the LOVE that I am keeps me harmoniously aligned with them all.”

When I was living in Indonesia my Dad took me on a 2 week trip around the Spice Islands and we lived on a beautiful boat and went diving 3 times a day.

In the days before our trip I dreamt of sharks every night and was feeling a lot of fear about seeing one.

Being the wise man that he is, he told me “There are a lot more sharks on dry land than there are in the sea.”

This message was delivered by the adventurous Soul who jumped into a swarm of thousands of mating hammerhead sharks and sank to the bottom of the sea where he watched the the aquatic love dance while breathing underwater.

Lo and behold on our first night dive on that diving in uncharetered Indonesian waters when all I had was a flashlight showing me what was only right in front of me, I spotted 3 giant sharks within the first minute.

Yes my heart quickened.
Yes I had a momentary holding my breath “OH MY GOD I AM WITH 3 GIANT SHARKS” all over body shivver.
And yes, I CHOSE LOVE and TRUST and SURRENDER.

And because I did I BECAME ONE with the sea and her wonders were revealed to me.

Check out THIS INCREDIBLE VIDEO of these magical human beings dancing with the marine beings.

Their mission is to END THE WAR on sharks, whales, dolphins and other marine animals.

Let’s remember that the ocean was our original home.

We are all water beings here to embody and share LOVE with all of existence.

Haystack Rock

image

I am here now.

At Cannon Beach on the Oregon Coast.

I am loungerlating in an old school leather chair kicking back with my feet criss crossed on this matching ottoman and rocking with a cup of hot tea in my hands.

I am perched in a wood house that is filled with memorabilia from fishermen and a lifetime of ocean lovers on a hill top gazing out to Haystack Rock which is one of the most sacred natural displays of beauty that I have ever seen.

There are thousands of white seagulls flying around and resting upon Haystack Rock.

Just in front of my view of Haystack Rock there is copious amounts of Queen Anne’s Lace flowers wildly growing with dollops of pink roses here and there.

The surf is flowing in constantly…wave after wave of deep aqua blue power & the soundtrack of the sea is lulling me into what feels like an alpha wave inner state of calm and centered beingness.

To the left of Haystack Rock there are 2 surfers in the ocean in head to toe super thick wetsuits and they must be truly stoked because they are catching wave after perfect wave.
Up here on the hill I can’t see the expression on their faces but I would guess they are smiling ear to ear.
And I am truly hoping that they are staying warm out there in that frigid water.
And I kinda wish I had my surfboard here.

There is a big white fishing boat slowly trolling by in the distance and my wish is that they are catching lots of fish.

There are droves of people and dogs on the beach.

Some are walking.
Some are running.
Some are skipping.
Some are biking.
Some are sitting.
Some are happy.
Some are in deep contemplation.

I have a feeling we all feel really lucky to be here.

I feel really lucky.

Last night we took a long walk down the beach at sunset until we couldn’t walk any further.

This beach is gargantuan.

Super long and super broad.

I took so many photographs and will share them with you accompanied with inspirational messages for years to come.

The scale of Nature’s majesty here makes me feel incredibly tiny.

And this littleness feels really good.

There is one lone man who is sitting in a chair very close to the waterline with his giant camera set up on a tripod.
My fantasy is that he is doing a time lapsed photography session.
He has a big pair of binoculars and he is probably looking at everything I am looking at but up close and in detail.
Hey, here’s a telescope.
I can get in on that up close and personal detail should I choose to…or I can just stay in this perspective with the bird’s eye view.
Now there is a small group of 4 people talking to him and he has leant them his binoculars. They are pointing at something in the direction of Haystack Rock.

As I tune into their frequency I now find myself with tears rolling down my face for no particular reason.

And now it’s not just tears.

Its a big deep cry.

It’s one of those “God I am so blessed to be alive” cries.

Really cathartic.

And it is really quite simple why this is happening right now…

I am deeply touched by this place.

We all are.

How could you not be?

It is familiar to me and it feels like one of my homes on the planet.

I feel deeply held by Mother Earth here.

The energy is so huge here that I feel like a child in her arms.

I feel tiny and it’s a relief to remember this Universal Truth.

I am here in this home and in this sacred place because my dear friend, who is my soul sister has an amazing family who is part of my soul familia here on beautiful planet Earth.

I just naturally and easily love them and I am grateful to receive the love that they naturally flow to me.

And I am so blessed that they graciously invited me into their mystical world here in Cannon Beach and into their super sweet world back in Portland.

Like me, they are all beauty givers and nature lovers and artists and lovers of life.

They are sensitive and kind and gracious and generous souls.

And I can palpably feel the love and attention to every detail that has gone into emulating the pure perfection of nature’s majesty in this home temple on the hill that is giving me shelter and a cozy spot to rest and relax.

This place is part of their family’s legacy passed down from 4 generations back.

My soul sister’s grandparents have passed away but I can feel their Spirits here and I deeply appreciate everything they have created here.

And I am feeling so much Love and Gratitude for my parents and grandparents and their never ending love for the sea and all of nature and for always creating dwellings that bring the outside in and have always helped remind me that WE ARE NATURE.

I am doing my best to keep these traditions alive.

And I feel their spirits here with me now (especially my dear ole Dad) and know how deeply they would appreciate this awe inspiring place too.

It always amazes me that the deepest tears I cry are the ones evoked by Love and Gratitude.

The waves of tears have now subsided but I know they will come again and I invite them to visit me anytime.

Wave after wave will continue to flow throughout the tides of time during this miraculous life.

What will always remain amidst the ebbs and flows is this Heart centered Spiritual Soul presence that is as strong and powerful as Haystack Rock❤️

Life Long Dream Come True

unnamedMEGA LIFELONG DREAM SUPREME COME TRUE DAY

After a back to back morning of sauna, meditation, Yoga practice and several clients I took a mid-day break to head down to the beach and jump into the ocean.

I came back up to my house and did my last Skype coaching session of the day in my bikini with ocean water dripping wet hair :-))

Just as my session ended my friend texted me:

Ocean dip?

YES! It’s friggin hot and I want to get back in that cool dream scene!
It’s time for round 2 dippety doo.

I cruised down the hill and met her and we caravanned back down to the beach.

As we drove I was oodling at how much fun I was having.

I am following one of my best friends as she revs through the twists and turns of Montecito in her new super foxy black Porsche and I am wearing nothing but my leopard print Brazilian bikini, freshly made green juice in hand singing along with Pharrell as he raises the vibration of the planet with HAPPY.

I was blissing.

We parked down at the same beach where I had just been swimming hours before, walked down to the seashore and the first thing I see is a dolphin leaping out of the ocean.

I looked at my girl and said:

I am going to go swimming with those lil pippins.

I threw down my towel, kicked off my sandals, flung off my sunglasses and ran into the sea and swam as fast as I could out towards a small pod of about 6-8 dolphins who were leaping and playing.

I have been swimming with wild dolphins many times in the Bahamas but this was the first time that I have ever been this close to our lil Pacific babies

Whenever I swim with the dolphins I talk to them in a high pitched tongue enhanced squeal that they seem to love.

People have always called me the Dolphin Girl when I am around the dolphins because they are always drawn to me and swirl their love mojo all around my everything.

Shortly after getting into the Sea I started my lil dolphin call and a stand up paddle boarder who could see the birds eye view of what was happening said:

They like you and they love that sound you are making and they are coming to play with you.

And then they were right there with me…jumping and frolicking and sparkling their high frequency LOVELIGHTBLISS all around me.

I played in their aquamarine playground with them for awhile and then they cruised up the coast and I started to swim in.

And when I was about half way in they came back and did a few more flips around me.

When I came back to shore and was laying out in the Sun a few people came up to me and said:

We were watching you play with the dolphins…we have never seen anything like that before!

And I said I have never had that experience before.
It’s a lifelong dream come true for me to play with dolphins in my home town.

As the crow flies, that beach, my beach, that I go to all the time is about 1/2 mile from where I grew up in Montecito.

Right here in the bay where I grew up swimming out the raft and hanging out at my God Parent’s beach house and sneaking into the Miramar Pool and getting chased out by Jacques the Miramar bicycle guardman and kayaking in the ocean with my dear ole dad.

Right here.
Right smack dab in a regular day doing what I do all the time when I am here.
Magic.
Pure magic.
Today a big ole dream came true that I have dreamed about my entire life.
It happened right here.
Right where I am.

So remember to dive into this moment.
Swim after your dreams.
And don’t give up.
There is so much LOVELIGHTBLISS for you here

(This photo was taken of me swimming with one of my fearless radical lover dolphin friends in the deep blue sea off the coast of Bimini.)

Earth Angels of the Sky

sunburstHunted down by our stewardess who was eagerly yearning to give us free upgrades to the best seats in the house…

Graciously greeted by our Captain in line for tea who told us that we are on a very special new plane that is going to wow us with all it’s bells & whistles…

And just now he came to visit us to tell us that all of our beverages of choice are on him today…

Apparently we are being blessed with yet another super high vibration adventure & the Universe is conspiring to make our dreams come true & enlisting everyone as our Earth angels as we collectively co-create Heaven on Earth.

May we all be riding these waves of sublime blessings all day long & always on all levels, planes & dimensions of reality in the friendly skies & on our stunningly beautiful planet.

Calling in the Condors

Calling in the CondorsA rare of wondrous blessing from the Condors of Big Sur who circled around us flying just above our heads over and over for over 10 minutes. Feeling deeply connected to, loved and supported by Great Spirit ♥

Rare and Wondrous

CondorsWe are in total awe after a rare & wondrous sighting of the condors of Big Sur…

We considered stopping the journey up the coast to check them out but decided to carry on…

And lo & behold they decided to chase after us!

Such an incredible metaphor that we do not need to turn around so that we don’t leave anything behind…if anyone or anything wants to soar to the highest heights, they will rush to find us & rise up to meet us ;-))

As they flew right by our chariot we pulled over & they circled back around soaring right above our heads… not once but 3 times…encircling us over & over again.

We knew that we were being blessed with a supreme blessing & when we read the symbology of the Condor our Spirits truly soared:

Condors prefer to live in the high mountains, to fly in the skies above the cordilleras. They symbolise the highest elevation, above limitations and obstacles. They are, above all, the symbol of the transpersonal; they integrate the wisdom of those who have died, those who have no ego. They are the symbol of spiritual ascension, of communication with the spirits, with what is subtle.

The condor is the symbol of creative power, the incarnation of timeless philosophy; his majestic flight suggests the process of life itself, of creative eternity, whose ever-living works are made up of births and deaths.

The eagle is the symbol of the sun, but the eye of the condor is the sun; it symbolises the hidden light of the great emptiness. It is the master of weather, of thunder and lightning, of wisdom, of new vision, of prophecy, of illumination.

The condor is without doubt the king of the skies, but ultimately he is a servant, a simple gardener, the instrument of the art of renovation, of cleanliness and purification; new productions need new spaces, which are fertilised from the disintegration of the old, of the spirits of the dead. Wisdom, prudence, calm, reflection, discretion, intuition, vision, prophecy, messenger of the divine – these are the attributes of the bird.
