You are the most powerful force in your life.
Recall your purpose. Embody your power. Live your truth.
This is the path of remembering.
We Have Forgotten...
We live within a system that is designed to have us forget. We are taught to wake up and rush - to produce, produce, produce so we can consume, consume, consume. We have programming from our family to meet certain ideals, layered on with those of our schooling and society. We are told to think more and feel less, do more and rest less, become more, appreciate less... until perhaps there is some intelligence system in our body that becomes numb just to survive - that we actively shut down. We begin to forget. We are guided more to external technology - iphones, computers and gadgets - than we are to our own internal technology - our own subconscious, unconscious and conscious programming; how interconnected we are with all life that surrounds us. And often times, we fall out of balance. We have trouble sleeping, our eating patterns become off, our stress levels sky rocket, we feel isolated and alone, and we forget why we are actually here. To forget is to feel a bit lost or uninspired - in your self, on your journey and in your life.
We Are Here to Remember...
Please take a moment... to appreciate how truly magnificent you are. You have a tongue covered in buds that allows you to experience taste. You breathe in air, and without even having to think about it, oxygen is delivered throughout your bloodstream. You have a mind that can generate thoughts and ideas and dreams. And some sensory system that allows you to feel... the wind on your skin, the warmth of a hug. Perhaps you can even in some way feel the laughter of a baby. You are made of intelligence - infinite, whole intelligence. To do this work is to remember who you are and what you are beneath all of the stories and constructs and layers. The parts of you that respond to the moonlight and the rippling of the sea. That can experience the power of a slow, long, deep breath. To remember is to come back to your essence, and bring to life again the intricate intelligence that you have been made of all along. No matter where you are at in your journey, you are loved, whole and supported - and you were never meant to carry any of it alone.
Hi, I'm Nicole Eva
My path was illuminated in 2012. It was that year that I left finance in New York to venture to India for six months, where I got my first yoga certification. It was that same year that I first met Ayahuasca and the Shipibo, and subsequently moved to the Peruvian Amazon for four years for deeper learning and experiencing.
And it has been since then that yoga and sacred medicine have been the two strongest guiding forces in my life. I have come to see their influences over the past decade plus like the two interconnected strands of DNA, or serpents wrapped around the sword. They work together, and in harmony, guiding and reminding me. They help define my dharma, and I am forever humbled to be a student of these paths, and to help guide others with what I have learned so far.
If I am being honest, there is a part of me that wishes this abrupt change in life from trading floor to tambo (hut) was triggered by some life event - there is some part of me that feels like it would make it more relatable. That’s not my story, though. In truth - I had an inclination towards mysticism and spirituality since I was a young girl. And in truth, I didn’t realize all of the patterning and pain I was carrying until I started to work through it.
This work is for the ones who are living, what seems on the surface, to be a wholly fulfilling life but have something inside telling them that there’s more…
For the ones that have a lot to wake up for, but still feel uninspired to meet the day. Who have been filling their cup in the best way they know how, but are still wondering where their ‘best self’ actually is.
Those yearning to show up a more energized and enlivened version of themselves for the world and the people around them - at work, with family and amongst friends.
It is for the ones who have experienced trauma in their life and never quite found a means to fully release and rewire it. Perhaps you have never even shared your story, and all it is has been buried deep inside. This work is for the ones that still see past trauma impacting their day-to-day lives, and most importantly, are ready to let some of that go.
It is for the ones walking the path of self-realization, and something inside is telling you this is the next step.
This work is for the ones who are looking for an honest reflection and are ready to face uncomfortable truths. This work is not easy, but it is profoundly tranformational.
