Guy:
So here’s a question I ask myself every day. Am I truly living? And then the second question I ask is, how do I call forward into my life what my heart desires? So let’s look at this for a moment. I’m here. You might see there’s a shala behind me. I’m currently in Bali. In an hour’s time, we’re about to start our retreat, five days mastering your inner mystic, where there’s beautiful souls coming from all around the world to join us on a five-day inward journey.

And I pinch myself. I get to live a life that I bring my family here. I spend quality time with my family. Uh, if you look around here- It’s beautiful. And by the way, I’m not saying any of this to impress in any way. I really don’t care any of that stuff. Sometimes I struggle even sharing these videos with you. But at the end of the day, I want to pass on wisdom if I can, and inspiration to those that are ready to, to hear this, because my life that I live now is no accident. It’s by, uh, coming up against myself and many v- limiting versions of myself over and over again, over many years to get to the point where I live on purpose and I feel like I’m contributing, uh, I’m making the world a better place at the same time, and everyone wins.

I’ve had to learn business skill development. I’ve had to learn, obviously, the, the work that we teach and we do, but it’s all come from a place of heart, and we get very conditioned to, uh, uh, l- live in a certain way. And when we start coming up against ourselves that, uh, it can be feel very challenging to shift. And even, uh, where I was talking to a client yesterday, and she even said that she’s got to the point now where, “I’m more fearful of, uh, living in fear, stagnation, and not growing than actually leaning into the unknown and truly evolving and growing myself,” which is fantastic. And sometimes I think we have to get to the point where the pain is so great before we action it and take any steps.

So there’s– When, when you think about it, there’s something that we get conditioned to do. So, uh, is, have you heard of the have, do, be, and the be, do, have? So, in the, the have, do and be– So first of all, we have to have the things in our lives, have the qualifications. We have to have the money to feel, have, have to have the relationship. We have to have all these things that are com- uh, constantly bombarded at us or conditioned to us in a certain way to then do the things that we want to do. So once I have this and I have this amount, then I will go and do it, and then I can become the person that I want to be. And that is the way of the mind.

That is the old paradigm. That is the way of fear. And if you flip that, if you first be what it is that you want to be from a state of being, and then from a state of being, you then start to do, and then eventually you will have. That is the way of the heart. Now, another way to break this down, and this is, uh, my bugbear with, uh, certain ways of manifesting and things like that, because when I look, look around and look how I live in, it’s like, how do they- Get to this point. I mean, I’m 51. I remember when I was living in Surrey, England, waking up to, uh, snow on the car and my car wouldn’t start. It was 6:00 AM in the morning. It was freezing cold. It was a Monday morning. Every Monday morning, my heart felt so heavy. It was… I remember crying on the way to work once, I was so miserable.

I remember the cassette tapes that you used to have and of… Like, I would get a cassette tape cover, and I would scrape the ice off the windscreen of my car, and then I would jump on the M25, which is a big ring road around London, and it was awful. And I would sit in traffic every day, and that’s how people are living their lives, and still do this day. Now, I’m not saying there’s nothing wrong with that if you’re happy, but if you’re not, uh, it’s so easy, we can end up, uh… I heard the term the golden cage, where we are so caught up in earning money to do these things, to, to, to pay off the mortgage, to pay off… And even business owners. We’ve had multiple business owners that have come through our retreats over time as well, and quite often they’re, they’re, they’re, they’re trapped in their own abundance that they’ve been wanting to create due to the, the way everything is set up and operating.

And I’m thinking, “Well, that’s not a life either, is it, really?” And so it’s like, how did I get from that, to that guy that was, to this guy? That where things are just flowing and even opening up more and more for me on a, on a regular basis. And it’s then like, well, how can I even then help other people start to lean into that if they just so hear the call and have the courage to live the life that their heart desires? So when you think about this whole manifesting thing and, and that tends to spin round in spiritual circles as well, and so I’m, I’m kinda coming from a place where I’ve got a resume to a degree, right? Now, when you think about it, we’ve always, we’ve… And you, you only have to look out at, at the world right now.

It’s all built on the mind, the mental, uh, this, this paradigm that’s clearly not working, right? And the mind, so we, we tend to think from, and create from the mind. That’s the challenge. And then from the mind, let me see if I get this correct, we then have to go into logic. So, so then there’s a logical process that we put to it. And then from that logic is then where we place our attention, and our attention is what we’re then zeroing in on to what we want to start to bring in in our life. And then from our attention, we then place our intention behind that. And then from the intention- That is our intent. This is what we intend to have happen.

I intend to run a workshop. I intend to, you know, make a million dollars. I intend… Whatever your intention is. Then from that intention, we then go into the mental body, so the visualization of it. Oh, I’m gonna see this into my life. I want these materialistic things. I want this to happen in my life. Then we go into the emotional body. That starts to evoke emotions, and of course, the physical body as well then, which from that aspect, the physical body, you know, how we posture. What, what’s showing up in our body? How is that being held? There, there’s so much wisdom that is held in the body as well. So then we, we look to create our life from that vantage point, and that’s what’s getting taught a lot out here.

But the problem is it’s all stemming from a mind, a mind-based paradigm. The mind is extremely limited and has to be in this linear, logical way of how we do things. Don’t get me wrong, I use my mind. We need a mind. We function in the mind. But what’s devoid from that really is the wisdom of the heart, and the wisdom of the heart is not just a metaphorical f- airy-fairy thing. It really is a mega-brain that is connected to the universe. Like, it is… We are plugged into the universe. We are the universe. We’re, we’re like, you know, a, a drop in a cup from the ocean, and we just don’t know it, and we don’t, uh, we don’t really lean into these concepts at a deep level. So when my life really…

Once I started to understand that at a deep level, then everything changed. Because when you go into the heart first, when you literally take your awareness, when you close your eyes and you go beyond your five senses, and you move your awareness into your heart, and you breathe through your heart, you can then start to connect to the heart space. And if the heart is connected to The eternal now, which I believe it is, the eternal now is beyond space and time and logic. It then, uh, doesn’t have language. We were born into this world, we didn’t know English, Spanish, or French, or anything. We were just these pure beings of joy, peace, and heart. And then our environment starts to co- uh, condition us very quickly into becoming who we, who we think we should be, not what our heart desires, right?

So then when you start to connect to the heart and start to have proper, beautiful practices that e- evolve… Now, my heart has opened up in ways I cannot even put into words, that I didn’t even know what is possible energetically and connecting to the non-physical. I- I… And it just keeps opening up, and it’s beautiful. And the only way it can do that is by going beyond the mind. It’s like you gotta let the mind go. Let It Go. It’s, it’s a protective mechanism. It, it wants to define logic, otherwise, you know, if you go and do something out in the streets or you’re gonna do this that has no logic, people are just gonna say, “You batshit crazy,” most of them, right?

That’s not logical sense. How could that happen? How could that be? And straightaway you’re, you’re severing the connection to source. You’re going into judgment. Judgment is the handbrake to the divine. If we’re in that space of mind and judgment and imposing what we think somebody else is or doing, uh, you, no idea, that is just keeping us stuck, right? So when we relinquish that and go to the heart, when we started going to practices in the heart, what starts to happen is dreams, images, insights, sensations, feelings are then starting to communicate through the grand Wi-Fi of the universal intelligence. We’re hooking up to the big database, right? But then, only then, do we come from that space.

It doesn’t even have to make sense. There’s no logic to it, but it’s coming from the soul self, the soul solution. That’s what we hammer home all the time. Even when we run our businesses and our, our companies, it’s coming from a soul solution. It is entwined in everything we do. It is an essence and representation of us through everything. And if you’re a business owner or you’re, own a company or you’re, you’re out there doing these things, if you’re coming from the mind and the logic of first bat, that’s why there’s something lacking I promise you. Well, I’ve made these mistakes. So anyway, where am I going with this? So then once we’ve got the heart and we’re starting to see, feel into what that’s coming, it evokes an emotion.

It evokes a feeling, and from that emotion and feeling, we can then start to become the resonator. That is then we are starting to shift our frequency. And of course, we butt up against ourself. Of course, we butt up against our limited condition traumas and past lives and ancestral heritage, whatever you wanna name it. They’ve all got labels, and the mind can hook into that, but it’s all just energy. It’s just energy that’s ready to flow, and that’s where the surrender starts to come in, and you start to allow that to happen. And if this is becoming your default way of doing, and it… Only then once we evoke that emotion and feeling that’s coming from a space that’s beyond the mind, are we then leaning into where we place our attention, if we choose to, because we’re placing it from a place of a state of being, not from a state of having, “I want.”

What if we are only perceiving less than 1% of reality at any given time when we go through our five senses? And when we’re in a stress response, when our nervous systems are hardwired f- for str- stress as well, we then even narrow our focus even more, and then we tend to end up focusing on everything that’s mirroring our conditioned nervous system from a stress place. And the universe could be showing you 100, dozens of different things. “Over here, over here, over here.” But we’re so busy in our lives, drifting along, doing the same thing every single day, that we then miss it. And it’s been there the whole time. We just haven’t developed the level of awareness to lean into that in the first place.

Tell ya, when I g- started that, then the game’s changing because, because when you start to really condition from the heart and then you start to place your awareness, if you choose to, and then your intention, if you choose to, from that space, it’s a d- it’s a different ballgame because then you’re, you’re actually focusing on all the, the, the amazing things the world can have to offer, and you’re beyond the, the fear-based, mind-based, logic-based paradigm that they’re constantly perpetuating all the time that’s keeping us stuck and locked in our, in our life. And that is the difference. And then there’s an allowance of that that comes through. So we start to call off, it starts calling forward and then we’re coming from a place of inspired action. We’re actually actioning the place that makes the whole difference from here as well. I hope that makes sense. So then the question really comes back to, am I truly living?

And I assure you when I don’t know what Monday is, I don’t know what Friday is. I had to think really hard to what day it was today. That’s how I live my life. I get to spend quality time with my family. I get to do the things on my terms. And it’s a beautiful place to be in. And I wish nothing else than for anyone to really lean into and have the courage to go in that direction. It doesn’t mean you have to blow up your life overnight. It doesn’t mean that you, you know, do anything wild or crazy or stupid or because I’m living life, all that nonsense. It just simply means that you make a declaration to yourself. You make a declaration to, I want to be living in my truth. I want to honor what my heart and soul is craving.

Because there’s a point where materialism doesn’t meet our needs anymore. Yes, it’s nice to have all the nice things and the comforts and everything else. But there comes a point where it’s like my heart and my soul is craving more. And I want the courage to lean in. Anyway, I hope that helps. I can see people are starting to come. And then we will be there the next five days off and on with, of course, some swimming pool and some nice sun as well. Let me know if that helps, that resonates. I just spoke from the heart and shared. I thought, oh, wouldn’t it be nice to try and get a podcast in? Anyway, if you want to find out more about us, where we are in the world, what we apparently might be coming to the USA as well.

Yeah, in end of October 2026, we shall see. But we’ll obviously we come to Bali, we come to many places and there’s lots on offer with what we do. Links below. Much love from me. See you soon. I’m standing here right now in Lake Taupo in a beautiful retreat space, and there’s a vast difference between an intellectual experience and passive listening to a fully embodied lived experience, ’cause that’s what retreats can do. They can help you land, start to truly reconnect to yourself, to others, to nature, and to spirit as well. There’s so much in it. That’s why we created Live in Flow, and that’s why we are so passionate about getting this work out there and bringing people together. If you wanna find out more when our next retreat or event is coming up, just check out the link below.
