I Am #AliveAndThriving Today! || #IAmAliveChallenge || Daily Off-Grid Jungle Journal Entry: Day #576 - A Great Session, Shifts Continue, and Time Reorganization - GaiaYoga Gardens, Lower Puna, Far East Big Island, Hawai'i - Saturday, February 24, 2024

I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 5 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙

Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

In my post yesterday I mentioned that I was scheduled to give a session to Harmony, after publishing that post, and getting a few important Hive tasks done. We were originally going to begin the session at 1PM, but because I got all my Hive tasks done so early, before 9AM, we were able to start a bit earlier as well, around 11:30AM. Working with Harmony is always an enjoyable experience, as we share excellent conversations, there is solid trust, and we have great rapport, so this session was another really beautiful one. We ended the session around 5:30PM, so quite a long session. She left very happy, grateful, and relaxed. She'll be at GaiaYoga Gardens this time around for six weeks, and she says that she wants to get as many sessions with me as she can fit into her shedule, maybe another 2-3, which is wondeful, both for her and for me. After I had just finished my session with Harmony, Nivah also asked me about getting a session, so that will likely happen soon too. My next scheduled session is with Kula on Wednesday. I think I'm going to be quite busy indeed!

As I've been mentioning, my healing sessions with women (deep, integral energy-body-tantric healing work) have really started to flow again. Actually, I'd even say that they are starting to explode! To me, this is part of the greater shifts that I've been experiencing within myself and in my life, since I set my 2024 Life Goals, and put them at the bottom of all of my daily posts (these). I am very definitely shifting in a good direction, bit by bit, little by little! I still feel like I'm in an in-between place, with some conflicting perspective, beliefs, and experiences, but it feels like the life-affirming, healthful, and vitalizing ones are slowing gaining more dominance, and winning out. This a process, so it seems that it will take a little time, but from the looks of it now, I'd say that I'm on a good path!

More people have been asking and inviting me to go out for Sunday Funday with them, Harmony and Sarah being the most recent (the past few days and today). As of now I still thank them and decline, partly because I haven't been off property for a Sunday Funday in...a long time, almost a year, and that last time was only once last year after another long period of not going. The other challenge around this idea of going out with people to do fun things, dance, the nude beach (Kehena), and the Lawn, is that since my breakup and my return to GaiaYoga, I've taken all the time that I used to use to spend with people and to go out to do fun things, and I reallocated it to what I do on Hive. As a part of that, I made Sunday my absolute busiest Hive day, with two posts to write, along with my usual daily Hive takes and catching up on notifications, as well as a more-thorough round of token management, in preparation to compile all the token data for my Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Updates. In other words I filled and made my time quite tight, which means that if I were to decide to go out with people on some Sundays, that I would need to move things around a little, somehow. I'm not sure how that would work yet, however.

My first thought is that I might move my Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Updates (again, as they used to be on Mondays) to another day, perhaps Saturdays. I would still have my Daily-Jungle-Journal posts to write, but I could just do my best to get them written and published much earlier in the morning, like I did in my preparation for Harmony's session yesterday morning. Moving those posts to Saturday would certainly truncate my time to do other things, like land work or to schedule sessions. I'll think and feel into it this week, to see what solutions come to me. I just have to make certain that I am able to get what I need to do on Hive done in the time it needs to be done. Going out with people for the sole purpose of doing fun things is something that I have not done in quite a long time, so it's a big step.

After my session with Harmony yesterday, Saturday, I helped Ano unload his truck after his Friday cocoing trip, and then load it for Sunday market. Once I was done with that, I strained out kefir for my kefir-honey-cinnamon-cacao blend. By then it was already getting dark, so I grabbed my leftover superfood fire coffee from the Landing fridge, then I headed back to the Flow House for my evening round of Hive tasks and catching up on notifications. Since I didn't sleep very much the night before, I was pretty tired and sleepy the later it got, so I was not able to finish catching up on my notifications unfortunately, only getting to within 10 hours of being up to date. I did a quick round of token management, then I went to bed around 10:45PM. I did thankfully sleep well, waking up just before 7AM, doing a round of token management, completing @benthomaswwd's @heartbeatonhive contest, and then getting out of bed just after 8:30AM to go make my superfood fire coffee.

It's now almost 1PM, so it's a very good time to end this post, so that I can get to my long, very Hive-focused Sunday. I have my usual daily Hive tasks to finish, lots of notifications to go through, a thorough round of token management to do, and then of course my 90th Sunday Weekly Hive Goals and Progress Update to compile and write, which I'll publish later tonight. I will take time in my day to take photos for tomorrow's version of this post, and to strain out and blend kefir, as well. I deeply appreciate you all so very much! Until that post tonight, and the next iteration of this post tomorrow! Forward, onward, and upward, joyfully together! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
