This is my first post in over a month, and perhaps you’ve been wondering where I have been during this time?
I am right now on the remote Indonesian island of Sumbawa, and its 3:00am in the morning and I am sitting outside under the stars hearing the waves of the ocean meeting the beach that is a few minutes from my room.
During the last months, I’ve been feeling a strong silent pull to disconnect from social media and give myself a personal retreat of solitude, seclusion and isolation from the world at large.
Today we flew from Bali to Lombok and then took a fast boat to this ancient island full of spirit, wilderness and untouched pristine beauty.
Jonas and I are here to check out a project that is happening, that we felt strongly called to see the project in person and meet the people from around the world that are fostering this vision and manifesting it into form.
In these last weeks, my soul has needed a space of solitude and withdrawal, in order to attune myself deeper to a new path that is opening and emerging; and a season of transition that is ripe within my being.
I was hearing this calling for some time, yet stayed active in posting and sharing my life with you all. Then last month when I had this divine intervention of experiencing my first ice bath by the ocean in Thailand, under extraordinary circumstances (see my post I shared with the ice bath video for more details on the event)—something woke up strongly within me.
I no longer could ignore this urgent need and yearning to withdrawal into my metaphorical cave of modern day seclusion, and realized that in my own life I don’t need to attend a meditation retreat to withdrawal from the world (or travel anywhere for that matter!), but I simply need to get off the computer and disconnect from all social media interactions in order to give my innermost being the introspection and deepening in essential wisdom it was thirsting and longing for.
And I did just that—for the last 4 weeks exactly.
As many of you already know, I have been getting ready to publish my first book which is entitled, “Soul on Fire: Divine Reminders on the Path of Awakening”. I had originally planned to release it at the end of December, yet had some delays and last minute changes that needed to be implemented in order to stay true to the soul and vision of this book.
In worldly terms, that meant choosing to get it printed by a high quality printing company in Europe, as opposed to it being printed generically and cheaply in the USA.
Choosing to have the book in hard cover, and not soft cover—in order to stay true to the original vision and essence of the soul of this living breathing work of art. It’s a - SOUL LUXE - gift book for the soul for women (and also men) that is living transmission of light, 412 pages of full colour, infused with golden emblems and sacred geometry, sacred writings, prayers, invocation, articles, photos, and every piece included in the book is crafted with intention, presence and concentrated awareness.
And lastly, choosing to self publish my book instead of publishing with the company I was originally intending to because of a lack of resonance, alignment and energetic dissonance that I was experiencing.
It has been a major initiation and learning to stay true to myself, not compromise and allow the grace and intelligence of life to lead and guide the way....and most importantly, to get my personal will out of the way.
This is why there has been a slight delay with releasing my book, because I had to to do some modifications and refinements, and now I am excited to share with you all that the books have been printed, and a big box of 200 kilos just arrived yesterday in Germany from England! To start out, I've printed a limited edition set of books, of only 50, as each book weighs around 3 kilos and its a special limited edition for those soul's its meant for—and probably you if you are reading this now....you'll know in your heart.
Next week, I will officially launch it into the world and it will be available to be ordered. You have no idea how happy it makes me to be able to say that now with complete unshakeable confidence, with having the books physically printed and ready to be shipped out globally to all my soul sisters, friends, clients, and family around the world. ❤️
Right now as I write this post today, I can feel that I am writing from silence. These words that are appearing on the page are coming from presence, spaciousness and silence of my own being.
The world at large is fast, quick, attention seeking, loud and obnoxious most of the time—and I resolutely choose to be what I am, and not be influenced by how the mainstream society operates—to be committed to depth, truth, essential wisdom, presence, and true rich soul nourishment for every fibre of our being.
There is a resting in my words, and I sincerely hope that my sharing today may be a source of richness for your own path, in whatever way it may spark or kindle a deeper knowing within yourself.
Whether its to be true to yourself fiercely, along with really listening to the soul of your creations and embodied creativity; or simply refusing to confirm to the loud attention seeking energy that much of Facebook is populated by—my wish from my heart to you is that you allow yourself space and presence to breath, slow down, return to the throne of your soul’s immaculate essence and give yourself the permission to stop.
...For a few seconds, hours, days or weeks or as long as you need to return to the deep inner substance in which you are sourced from.
Our power comes from within, and comes from the unbridled knowing of our soul’s ancient inner voice. And like a sacred temple, it requires our silence to truly communion with the holy presence of knowing within each of our hearts. 🙏🏻
With a deep open heart, I send my love to you all into your day whenever it is you receive this message.
Thank you for taking the time as always to read my sharing. I love and appreciate you all 💜
Your friend and soul star sister,
Nicole ✨✨
