The EMERGENT FIELD

12/22/2025

What if someone telling you how uncomfortable they felt, or intimidated by you, was the EXACT medicine you needed in order to grow?
To break out of an old pattern.
To look in the mirror and see something different.

And it's not the words per se. But the truth in those words. The bravery in knowing that the speaker is actually craving connection, but choosing authenticity over plattitudes. Even though the latter may have stood the test of time of creating an apparition of connection.

This apparition of plattitudes and niceties we use to 'get along'. Maybe even to feel some fleeting sense of belonging. And yet it is just that.
Fleeting.
Look from behind the glass and it's gone. 

There are machines now that can measure the vibrations of feeling states. 
Authenticity has been repeatedly measured as the highest vibration feeling state. When we are being authentic we not only feel great, we emit a particular frequency that attracts others to us, You feel good, and those around you feel good in your precence. They also begin to reveal their truths, even painful ones, knowing that you won't try and heal and fix them. You won't tell them they're broken.

Because they're just like you. And you, my dear, are just like them.

So what happens when a dozen people get together and step through the apparition into the wilder waters of radical authenticiy?

An incredible field emerges, where we can rest in our imperfection, our non-conformity; our unlovable pieces can be held in tenderness and acceptance. Sometimes there's tears, sometimes rage, sometimes sweet, sweet silence. 

Whatever emerges is perfect. And imperfect.
It just IS.

After two powerful 3-month containers in 2025, I will be holding more Emergent Fields in 2026. Get in touch for tickets and more info.

    The INVITATION

    A Poem by Oriah Mountain Dreamer
    ​
    It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living.

    I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing. It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive.

    It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon. I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life’s betrayals or have become shrivelled and closed from fear of further pain.

    I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it, or fade it, or fix it. I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own; if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, be realistic, remember the limitations of being human.

    It doesn’t interest me if the story you are telling me is true I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself. If you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. If you can be faithless and therefore trustworthy. I want to know if you can see Beauty even when it is not pretty every day. And if you can source your own life from its presence.

    I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine, and still stand at the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, ‘Yes.’
    It doesn’t interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair, weary and bruised to the bone and do what needs to be done to feed the children.

    ​It doesn’t interest me who you know or how you came to be here.
    I want to know if you will stand in the centre of the fire with me and not shrink back. It doesn’t interest me where or what or with whom you have studied.

    I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away. I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.
