Living the Path of Surrender: What does it mean and how do we do it?

The Dance of Being and Doing to Rewire Survival Mode Into Heart-Led Living

This is an important teaching and exploration of the dance between ‘survival doing’, ‘being’, and ‘authentic doing’ energies. I explore unraveling from the worldly matrix of worth, well-being, success and safety that has conditioned all of us, and embarking on the path to living in greater heart-alignment, energy, and sustainability with your true essence. Topics explored include:  • being as the base state before action • 'survival doing' versus 'authentic doing' • childhood and lineage patterns that shape a sense of urgency within • body signals of burnout, and how to attune to them as guidance • small daily attunements to rewire safety • rebuilding trust through gentle, honest steps • letting grief open a portal to true movement The Sanctuary Membership is being revamped and you can now join for only $33/month!

Living the Path of Surrender: What does it mean and how do we do it?

In this episode I explore how to live the path of surrender without abandoning desire or Self, moving from upended expectations to a grounded practice of connecting with and honoring our deeper truth, while also processing emotions, thoughts and bodily sensations that are arising in the process. I share how a pregnancy twist reopened old grief for me, and how cultivating continuous connection with ourselves restores trust, presence, and agency in the unknown. Other nuggets we explore:  • Redefining surrender as inclusion, not bypass • Living in the dance between human will and Divine will • Allowing in support and mentorship to clear charge • Holding peace and greater knowing at the center while feeling everything • Resisting false reassurance and staying with the unknown • Honoring different timelines and processes in healing Apply to work with me 1:1 [https://www.ellieflow.com] Join The Sanctuary Membership [https://www.ellieflow.com/the-sanctuary-membership] My Substack [https://ellieflow.substack.com/] Join my newsletter [https://www.ellieflow.com/] Find me on instagram [https://www.instagram.com/ellie.flow/] I would love to hear what arises for you as you listen, and anything specific you'd like to hear on the show.

Pregnancy Alchemy with Pilar Lesko: The Medicine of the Bare Minimum, Entrepreneurship and Inviting More Spiritual Energy Into Your Work, & Navigating Death and Grief in Pregnancy

This episode has been years in the making and is an honor to share with you. Pilar has been one of my mentors for the last 6 years, and soon after I found out that she is also pregnant, I knew we had to sit down together to explore: • How the spirit of her baby waited for her to release the energy of working herself to death before dropping in • The medicine of the bare minimum and how pregnancy has forced a complete reorganization of our lives • How the physical limitations of early pregnancy revealed inauthentic doing energies that were ready to be transformed • Experiencing divine creation happening internally while facing very human challenges of not feeling well externally • Pilar's mother's death and how her pregnancy has created new understanding and healing • Altering our relationship to social media and creation • Pilar's father's recent death and the relief she felt in his release • The power of having the opportunity to face our greatest fears through losing our parents, and find more aliveness than ever on the other side.

Tea Ceremony, Slowing Down to Connect with Grief, and the Importance of Sacred and Ceremonial Spaces for Healing After Loss with Melina Charis

Join me in this episode as I chat with my dear friend Melina Charis, as we share our personal stories of losing our mothers and the profound impact it has had on our lives. Together, we created Sacred Ground, a virtual community event featuring a guided tea ceremony and embodied movement practice, designed to provide a sacred space for reflection, healing, and connection. Grief isn't a neatly organized series of steps; it is a deeply personal, non-linear experience. In our conversation, we challenge societal misconceptions about grief and explore its unpredictable nature. By sharing our own experiences, we highlight the importance of allowing emotions to flow naturally, embracing the full spectrum of feelings from joy to sadness. Through rituals like tea ceremonies, we can create intentional spaces to honor these emotions, providing a sanctuary for self-awareness and growth. Listen as we discuss how these sacred spaces can guide us toward a richer understanding of life and help us stay connected to our true selves. In this heartfelt episode, we invite you to explore the depth of your own grief journey, recognizing it as a sacred part of life. Through personal anecdotes and insightful discussions, we emphasize the transformative power of being truly present with your emotions. Whether through Sacred Ground or other supportive environments, we encourage you to find the courage to embrace the sacred space of grief, honoring its role in your life and allowing it to guide you toward healing and new beginnings.
