[01:45] Honoring Mothers
Today, I would love to be able to go into the depths of motherhood. Now I'm not a mom and I never will be. And by the way, never will anyone with an XY chromosome. It just won't exist.
Men are biologically different and different because we're here to serve a purpose that we can honor in other episodes. Of course, I'm here to honor fathers. I'm a father. But today I really wanted to give grace and respect and homage to mothers.
This world that we live in, Mar, there is so much propaganda and so much really conditioning from the media and let's just call it out for what it is, the woke mind virus that Paul Levy described as Wetiko or the mind virus that native Americans as a projection of the darkness of self, either individually or collectively.
And I feel like what we're experiencing with RFK coming to the helm and the health awareness that's gonna sweep our nation at least, and that's gonna trickle over into Europe, is just this ownership of nature and an ownership of self. That just feels so good to say out loud.
The fact that mothers are going to have even more spaciousness to be real mothers in America and in Europe and everywhere. But it starts with narrative, it starts with belief…
[05:10] Tap Into The Motherly Love
Yes, this is a podcast for mothers. This is also a podcast for women who have mothers. And by the way, if you're here, you have one. They're either with us or, you know, they've transitioned to another dimension, another life.
And so I just want to honor my mom to start this. And so wherever you're listening, just put your hand on your heart and just feel the warmth of your heart in your hand.
And just, if you're driving, just pull over or if you're walking in the park or whatever you're doing, and just close your eyes for a moment and just feel the warmth of your hand on your heart.
And I want you to go on an imaginary timeline way back to when your mom first put her hand on your heart. And just feel how loved you were then. Because she loves you the exact same way now.
She loved you before you were born. She loved you when you were just an emanation of a star seed. She's loved you since the time you took your first breath.
And you are loved in the exact same way by your mother, whether she's here in physical form or not, you are so deeply loved by her. And just trust that that's real.
And just take a cold breath with your hand in your heart just feel the warmth of your mother's hand on your chest, penetrating through your skin, going all the way down to your heart.
And just be grateful that you are here, that you've had a mother who loved you enough to birth you into this world that didn't get caught up in the propaganda that my body, my choice means reckless sex and hedonism and multiple abortions.
Just be grateful that you're here. And also just have compassion in this moment your mom. My mom struggled with bipolar the majority of her life. It still does. And medications are really just for energy and expression that couldn't come out, that didn't have the space or the courage or the safe place to come out.
And a lot of moms that deal with bipolar or emotional issues or choosing abusive husbands or choosing dads that choose to leave, all of this, all of this, all of this has nothing to do with the fact that your mom loves you so much that she into this world.
She carried you in her body for so many months so that you could draw your first breath. And just let that for a moment, just let that be enough that you're loved so much that you were gifted life through a woman.
And just how special that is, how incredibly sacred and beautiful that is, and just hold that in your heart and take a big deep breath and breathe it out.
And maybe this is just the one piece of gratitude you could have today, the fact that you were born and your mother loved you enough that she'd carry you in her body and bring you into the world. And now just send that love to your mom wherever she is.
Maybe she's with you, maybe she's still here, maybe she's left the planet. And just say thank you, mom. Thank you, mom, for doing everything that you've done so that I could eat, so that I could nurse from your breast, so that I could be nourished by you.
And just feel how special it of a mother and that your mother has always done the best she can with the level of consciousness and awareness that she's been brought. Because this is the ultimate truth.
You don't need a strategy, you don't need a PDF, you don't need the top 5 ways to love your mom. Just connect with the same heat in your hand that rests on your heart mom touched you for the first time when you were born. And just let that be enough for a moment.
And just let the power and the love of that wash over your entire nervous system and just say thank you mom, thank you for being there for me, for taking care of me when I was sick, for loving me when I didn't know how to love myself, for showing me all the ways that I could express myself with joy, or for teaching me by its opposition because I always wanted to experience joy and you showed me the way that I could not experience it.
So thank you for its opposite. Because regardless of the trials and the tribulations that we have with our mothers, the fact is that they loved us enough to bring us here.
And so, when we have attacks on motherhood and when we have gender dysphoria and vocabulary and nomenclature that are supposed to be for everyone. Well, I'm here to tell you if you stand for everything and everyone, then you fall for anything.
And I think what's most important when we talk about this conversation of truly honoring mothers, it is to just give homage and respect and reverence for what it really means to be a mother. This selfless, caring, nurturing, beautiful being with her own imperfections that were gifted to her by her mother. It's just so beautiful.
So instead of fighting against gender dysphoria or fighting against this narrative, which really is you feeding it, Stand for motherhood and stand for women instead. Because if we keep fighting what words can you use to describe breastfeeding?
What words can you use to describe a mother? A mother is a mother. That's it. There's nothing else. Yes, it's biological, but it's also God-given. It's also from nature…
[20:10] Let Go of The Story You're Telling Yourself
When we're young, we have such an underdeveloped ego that we think there's something wrong with us. We think that our parents loving us in the best way they know how, which by the way, most of them weren't loved by their parents either. And I say most because it's most.
That we create stories to cope that were not lovable, that were not accepting or worthy of love. And it's all a lie. It's a complete fabrication that the ego creates to make sure that we can tough it out as a lone wolf and make it alone. This is why the hashtag boss babe, boss bitch exists.
And this is why all the men that have millions of dollars in their bank account still have an empty heart. It's because in their core, they don't actually feel worthy of love and they don't know how to give that love because don't have it to give.
So it's these small exercises today where we just honor mothers, just let go of all the fucking story for like 1 minute and just love her and forget all the projections and all the trauma and all the wounding and just imagine what it's gonna be like if God gives you a child that you can hold against your breast and how special it'll be for you to put your hand on that child and how much done as a woman to be able to show up for that child so loving and so imperfect yourself, which is probably the same thought your mom had.
When she brought you into the world, she probably said, Mary Padileno, my mom, probably said, I'm gonna love this child, I'm gonna be the best mother, I'm gonna do anything I can for this baby. And then their stuff came in. But see, the difference between us and them is that we are empowered with such radical knowledge that they never had access to.
This podcast brings that, our conversation brings that. So if anything, call your mom. Call your mom today and tell your lover, you don't even have to get into the stories because they're there, right? And you'll get to them.
But call your mom, send your mom a text, send your mom a card, connect with her, love her because society only wins this narrative of society where mothers are chest feeders and mothers don't exist and gender doesn't exist. That narrative only wins if we feed it, if we fight against it.
It's like Paul Levy says, the seed of Wetiko has encapsulated within it the solution to the very virus itself. Always, always, always, encapsulated in every question is the answer. So when we say, how do I love my mom? I've been through so much trauma, she didn't love me the way that I wanted.
How do I love my mom? You just love your mom. It's in the question itself. So how do I do the work on myself so that I can pierce through all the generational bullshit that's gotten the way that she put on to me from her mother and then from my great great and then from my great because all that stuff lives in our body.
A really great teaching from this is the Paul Chek episode that's coming next week, where he said that Carl Jung states that the unfinished business of parents will be finished by their children.
And it's true on a cellular level, on an energetic level. So yeah, I mean, it would be great if our moms could hang out in a shop and just laugh and hug each other, and we could hug them, and just having these moments of healing, having these moments of somatic connection without story, Without all the stuff that's there, because we know it's there. It's there.
But can we just honor mothers?…
