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! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Melekai and I arrived at the Hawai'i Wellness Retreat Center yesterday afternoon a little after 3:30PM, which is a beautiful two-story house on a hill overlooking the ocean, on a large property with a waterfall. Most of yesterday was unloading the cars, situating and organizing ourselves and the various things that we had brought.

The women who are attending the retreat started arriving a short time after Melekai and I did, most of whom I already know. One women who intended to come, Sally, got the date wrong, so ended up canceling. Even without her there are six women, aside from Melekai and myself.

It took me a while, definitely longer than I would have liked, to get my computer connected to a network, and my Qortal node back online. The connection on my phone is weak here, so it's definitely a challenge getting various things done on Hive, even when connected to the wifi. It took me what seemed like ages to upload the 13 photos for this post, but after many attempts, I finally succeeded.

I will say that it does feel very strange to be in a a very upscale house with rooms, walls, windows, and a solid roof, as I've grown very accustomed to our open structures at GaiaYoga. I'm such a jungle creature now...lol!

I have a full day of session, or rather mini-sessions, planned for today, with all six women here, so I've got to get all my Hive tasks, including writing and publishing this post, as early as possible. Even though I'd love to spend some time in the hot tub, the dry sauna, and go to see the waterfall, I don't know where in today's busy schedule that would be, however. As soon as I get all my Hive stuff done, I've got to go make my superfood fire coffee (which I'll be sharing), set up my massage table, and prepare the space for sessions. I hope it all flows easefully!

Yesterday, Tuesday, after finishing up my Hive tasks, I spent the rest of the time getting everything together for the trip, and thankfully everything went smoothly, with Melekai and I leaving on schedule by 1:30PM. After getting my Qortal node back online, and eating dinner, I focused the rest of my night on my Hive tasks, and catching up on my notifications, a little later than usual. I had a lot of notifications, and combined with slower internet, I wasn't able to get through them all before I had to stop at 12PM to go to bed, after some very quick token management. While my bed is super comfy, sadly I did not sleep well, waking up around 4:30AM, doing a round of token management, and starting on this post (which took forever with the slow photo uploads). It's now just before 8:30AM, so a very good time to end this post, so that I may get to my other few important Hive tasks, before going to make my superfood fire coffee, set up my massage, and begin sessions. I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's expression of this post! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

2024 Life Goals

1.) Heal my broken heart, reignite my heart sun, and embody a solid, healthy masculine, allowing my electric fire to shine bright, no matter what others, especially women, say or do. 

2.) Bring myself and my life back into balance, integration, and wholeness. 

3.) Do regular (naked) integral practices again, alone or with others. 

4.) Dance regularly again.

5.) Work with natural entheogens (mushrooms, ganja, ayahuasca), with punctuated regularity, as a part of my healing process again. 

 6.) Get, and keep, regular deep, integral energy-body-tantric work healing sessions for women flowing again.

7.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again. 

8.) Make my plant nursery beautiful again.

9.) Live as an integral part of a juicy heart-resonant soul tribe community, with deep, coherent mutual and shared passion, purpose, mission, love, warmth, care, sweetness, reverence, respect, aliveness, admiration, excitement, enjoyment, playfulness, work, fun, laughter, attraction, and all-level connections and relationships. 

10.) Make love with the woman, or the women, that I love, every day, as a sacred devotional practice. 

11.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
