What is Sacred Self-Leadership?

Adora Winquist March 24, 2024

What comes to mind when you hear the term “sacred self-leadership”? Often, we consider leadership as a structured term along a scale of authority. It may be a top-ranking general for military operations or the boardroom hierarchy of business organizations like Oprah Winfrey. There are also leaders like Tony Robbins that are inspirational in nature offering innovative ways of thinking, behaving and reaching …

Are You a Modern Alchemist?

Adora Winquist March 2, 2024

Traditional Alchemy is considered to focus on transmuting base metals to gold, but true alchemy is the process of finding the gold that is held inside all of your life’s experiences to date. The path of the modern alchemist is a quest to find the master keys to your most fulfilling and vibrant life. It is the hero or heroine’s journey that focuses on transforming the world within you.

The Alchemy of Palo Santo: Purification

Adora Winquist December 31, 2023

This South American “holy wood” produces an essential oil of a deep, earthly, and woodsy aroma, with such potent depth it easily transcends space and time. It has been used for centuries in the sacred purification and energy cleansing practice through burning of the wood to dissolve negative energies and limiting beliefs.

Neroli to Awaken the Mystical Heart

Adora Winquist March 3, 2023

Neroli’s bright aroma lifts the spirit and speaks to the remembrance of joy and lightheartedness. Neroli is highly beneficial for those who tend to be harsh and critical of themselves and can assist in shifting this energy to that of self-love and compassion. This oil assists in dissolving extreme emotions like jealousy, anger, and self-hatred. It aids in settling shock and counterbalancing PTSD.

Forgiveness in Sacred Relationships

Adora Winquist February 28, 2023

In all relationships, our thoughts and language significantly affect how we feel about our significant other. Forgiveness is both a practice of mind and body, which allows us to create greater harmony in times of friction. When we look more closely at our sacred relationship, we start to see some breakdowns in intimacy, connection, and communication.

How to Maintain Sacred Relationships

Adora Winquist January 3, 2023

After spending time with family, friends, or enjoying peaceful solitude over the holidays, it's an inspiring time to reflect on relationships. Sacred relationships. Also, because I’m leading a retreat in late January, I’m spending the next few weeks writing and reflecting on the value each person plays in a relationship. Today, I want to focus on sacred relationships and partnerships. To me, that means unity for longevity.

The Pen of Liberation

Adora Winquist November 18, 2022

Once I've shifted my perspective, I know I can have a different response. I know I can have a different reaction—my reaction to all of the world of transformation. My reaction to the situation around me and how it has changed indicates my transformational journey. The more I become aware of my reaction and response, the more I can harness the power within me to modulate it in ways that honor and hold compassion, forgiveness, understanding, and love for every step along my journey.

Making Room for Greatness in Your Life

Adora Winquist November 4, 2022

What do you think of when you hear the word great? Is your first impression positive as It’s a great day, filled with benevolence? Do you sense the greatness of who you are and the magnificence of who you are becoming? Or do you think and feel first of the great chaos in the world, in your life, or the great to-do list on your fridge or desk?

The Invitation for Co-Creation

Adora Winquist October 27, 2022

There have been many times over the course of my journey where if I’m being honest with myself, didn't really know what I wanted out of my experience in this life. I may have had a few goals or desires which would drive my daily actions, but looking at it from a big-picture perspective, my intentions for my own path of self-mastery were somewhat vague.

The Alchemy of Release

Adora Winquist October 14, 2022

I'll share this piece from my journey when I went down my rabbit hole, which was excruciating. It brought an old pattern of being attacked. What I forgot to see was that it was time for something new to be burned. I didn't know what it was in those moments, which was incredibly painful because it was like, Who am I? What is my identity? Why am I here? That's when I had to take the time to integrate the experience of release.

SOS: The Adora Frequency: Open

Adora Winquist October 9, 2022

I thought I would share a little story with you that is germane to the Adora Frequency and how it relates to me as an individual, as well as the Brennan school. For those of you that have gone through the program, you know we go into the depth of our core wounding in the first year. In the very first experience, we were brought back into the state of infancy and core wounding of the schizoid characterology, which was quite a surprise.

SOS: High Vibrational Chakra Upgrade: Seeing Beyond the Illusion

Adora Winquist July 21, 2022

Welcome to the Seeds of the Spirit High Vibrational Chakra Upgrade Series. Our meditation journey today is on the third eye to see beyond the veil illusion and the collusion.

Often we do not make the connection of collusion being part of our family dynamics or early childhood constellations, but whenever there's a sense of collusion, either between one parent, another sibling, or even ourselves when we were younger and we allied with one parent over another, it always creates a split.

Psychic Development Series: Clairaudience

Adora Winquist April 13, 2022

Welcome to our continued Psychic Development Series, this meditation journey will focus on the HSP (High Sense Perception) of Clairaudience, which is being able to hear and truly listen from an intuitive perspective. We will invoke the cleansing and purifying energy of the water element to create new space for clarity to flow.

The evolution of clairaudience is communication in Divine flow also referred to as channeling. The throat chakra is the hub of this form of HSP and the back of the throat center is also known as the channeling chakra. For those of you that have explored this connection through automatic writing and various other expressions, our connection to Source, your higher self, your guardian angel and the like offers a wealth of insight and loving support in our day to day life.

Survive to Thrive: Excavation

Adora Winquist February 16, 2022

This is the fifth meditation in our Survive to Thrive series. This week we are going to be working with excavation, and we are going to be working with the throat chakra. The Sanskrit word for the throat chakra “Vishuddha,” means purification. The throat center invites us to excavate our soul path, and is all about liberation, self-expression, and feeling free to embody our most authentic truth and being able to articulate our highest truth with strength and grace.

Truth

Adora Winquist February 16, 2022

Once we realize that we are what we create, our focus begins to shift. We start to evaluate our words, actions and as importantly, our thought processes with the affirmation that to live life in love, non-judgment, healing and forgiveness is truth. This is the ALL. We are divinity and we are perfection. As co-creators and creators, the possibilities are endless. Limitation does not exist, unless you will it, after all free will does prevail. Do you choose to live your life in mastery or exist in a world of hopelessness and helplessness, as a perpetual victim? There is always a choice. Every time we berate and admonish a colleague, friend, family member or stranger, we are living in disempowerment. For it is only in our self-judgment that we stand, encountering our own reflection in those before us. By letting judgment and fear control us, we are denying that spark of divinity that is so brightly lit within.
