Invoking our universal potential

As a collective, we have been gifted spaciousness in a way we have never seen before. A third of the world is on lockdown, and many of us in the west are privileged enough to get paid and compensated for staying home. How do we make the most of this time? I have been witnessing enormous amounts of creativity as people have been writing, painting, sharing workshops, and classes from the comfort of their own homes. This global crisis could become a very potent incubator for those of us who should choose to use it in this way. In this (more optimistic) podcast episode, I share some thoughts and ideas on how we can make the most of this time to create from a place of alignment and connection to our highest essence. There are two parts of this, first is making the decision we want to be part of this creative wave. The next is creating the right container for it.Too much spaciousness can be like a popped tire, allow the potency of great ideas to escape. This 28 min  podcast episode shares a few ideas on how to make the most of this time to truly discover the power of our essence and find ways of sharing it with the global community at a time when it needs it most. = Happy to hear comments and reflections as usual.  Stay in touch! Marc [email protected]

This is my third (and hopefully last) episode on the coronavirus.Recording this from my home in Spain, death tolls are soaring as we live under extreme lock down conditions. As death becomes so prominent around us, not only death of people, but of habits, jobs, relationships, etc... this situation has become a potent invitation to look at our relationship to death.For thousands of years, many traditions, religions and philosophies have considered death to be only part of a process which also includes rebirth.This episode explores how beneficial it can be to reconnect to philosophies which encompass ideas of rebirth in these times. The place where death and birth meet is also the place where we can connect to our highest and most limitless potential. From the mystery schools of ancient civilisations to Buddhism, christianity and quantum physics, the idea of death and rebirth has been an essential duality which is intrinsic to all of our beings and to everything in existence. the place where the two meet is the undifferentiated field, which transcends time and form, which connects us directly to the fields of higher power where we all can connect to our highest and fullest potential. This episode is 45 minutes including a 17 minute energetic and somatic practice.I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions. you can email  me at [email protected] I also announced in this episode that I am offering free distance healing sessions to people who have either contracted coronavirus or are exhibiting symptoms of the disease. If that is you or someone you know, contact me and we can organise the session. Lots of love your way. Marc www.marcperidis.com   

Since last week's episode in which I shared some views on the Coronavirus pandemic, the situation has escalated rapidly.As it all unfolds, the western world is facing a massive lock-down as well as the possibility for learning some valuable lessons at a very fast pace.This "forced" time at home becomes an invitation to explore certain part of ourselves we may not always have the time to explore, and in these times of economic crisis may call for us to look at our individual and collective shadow around money. For most of us, the financial consequences of this  crisis are inevitable and this is the perfect time for us to look at our issues around scarcity and self-worth.The answer and the antidote to all of these is found by connecting to our highest essence and recognise our intrinsic gift we are here to share with the world.This may be the perfect time for each of us to embody our magnificence. As live workshops are becoming casi-impossible to plan, I felt called to create a series of online  workshops to support those who want to engage on an journey to unlock their higher purpose and engage with deeper levels of creativity and abundance. Full details can be found here. https://marcperidis.com/eroticintelligenceonlineI am also happy and grateful when I receive your comments and views, even if they appear to conflict with mine, so don't be shy to reach out at [email protected].  

Coronavirus has overtaken our media, and even seeped into our politics.Yet there is a backlash from people questioning if things are really as bad as are being demonstrated.My "shamanic" take on the situation involves stripping away layers of illusion and looking at the potential gift behind this global situation. Is this the universe nudging us to slow down our consumption and be more respectful to our environment? Could it be a cosmic invitation for us to collectively slow down, make space in our lives and perhaps begin a much-needed global healing process? This episode is 30 minutes long and does not include a practice so if you would like a practice you can find many of them in previous recordings on my website at www.marcperidis.com/ptdsI would love to hear your thoughts on this virus, the crisis around it as well as the opinions I shared. You can email me at [email protected]. 

When it comes to groundbreaking creativity, where does inspiration truly come from?Were ancient temples really built by slaves who spent years pushing heavy stones up intelligently maneuvered cable systems? Or could these have been miraculously flung into place by the power of a single magician's words and intention?Even today, so many of us wrack our brains trying to figure out how we will create and produce the material we want to share with the world and call forth success. Then people like Adele and The Beatles come along and create hit singles effortlessly emerging from a breakup or channeled over breakfast.Are we trying too hard? When did we stop believing in our superpowers?This has been a big topic for me lately. Ever since I stopped using social media, I launched this podcast as a vehicle of expression of ideas that are pertinent for me, and that I feel will be relevant for others.Offering a new episode, every new moon and full moon felt right in terms of aligning to the cosmic system which runs our collective field. My delay in offering this latest episode (now 5 days overdue after Saturday's full moon) was indicative of my need to look into this whole process and to asses when useful ideas naturally arise vs. when I am trying to push them out of a box.This podcast is an invitation to look at the creative process in a different way to that of our current cultural system, which is often based on planning and doing.And the rockin' 15-minute practice at the end will take these concepts to a somatic level, offering us a process which creates a massive void, and then a rich and nurturing space for resourcing and harnessing our creative force.The results are (literally) magnetic!They may not appear in the way we imagine!PS: if you are in London or Barcelona and feel called to this work, check out my in-person workshops which can be found on my website www.marcperidis.com

The human being is a "species with amnesia" said Graham Hancock.Looking at ancient civilisations which preceded us by thousands of years, we can get a taste for the infinite and expansive nature of human potential.After diving inwards to harness our power in episode 4, episode 5 guides us into a dive which takes us to a place of accessing our highest power. This episode is 35 minutes, including a rockin' 15 minute guided dive process. These recordings scratch the surface of what is possible. To take this work deeper, look for workshops and more content on www.marcperidis.com

This 35 minute podcast episode supports us in harnessing the power of our inner wholeness, to overcome “unsettled” feelings and emotions as we emerge from an intense solstice/ holiday period.Deep resourcing is also supported with an 18 minute guided dive practice.

The mysterious power of external criticism (happy holidays)The past few months have been exciting for many of us. I have witnessed many people awaken their higher purpose, invoking their authentic essence, and harnessing the power of their unique gifts. The importance of this rich, inward exploration becomes apparent. Unlocking our hidden powers, and awakening and sharing our greatest gift affects every part of our life. It magnetizes love, abundance, helps heal family relationships, and even profoundly impacts health. Then the holidays happen... We find ourselves surrounded by family and friends and the reality of potential tensions. Today’s 35 min episode explores how we can use this potential holiday “jaggedness” as a way of deepening and strengthening this exploration. Three elements come into play: 1- Our essential gift As we unlock and embody our inner essence, we begin to find a sense of wholeness, which is incredibly transformative and magnetic. 2- Our codependent relationships The process of unlocking our true nature often involves bringing forth something unique and different from the cultural status quo. This can bring up fears, anxieties as well as many unresolved shadows as we need to make a decision of whether we choose to stay within the safety of the parameters of our tribe or take the plunge into the riskier waters of our unique essence. 3- External criticismAs we choose to share more and more of ourselves with others, we expose ourselves to potentially harsh criticism from those we love. We can either choose to avoid this at all costs, or decide to take it on as part of our exploration, eventually allowing our embodiment of this essence to reach even deeper levels. The premise of this work: Criticism received from others can be an invitation to explore what we honestly think about ourselves. I have personally found it most beneficial to take these criticisms as arrows pointing to the parts of our inner landscape, which may be unresolved. The more hurtful the criticism, the bigger the arrow. This podcast goes into this topic at greater length, followed, as usual, by a 15 min dive using awareness, energy, sound, and breath. As the dives allow us unrestricted and unlimited access to our infinite intelligence, they become the antidote to our codependent relationships. They provide us a potent force of pleasure so rich and intense that any benefit we think we get from our co-dependency patterns will pale by comparison. As the chords come undone, we can loosen our grip and become who we were really meant to be. Let me know about your explorations or any feedback and experiences by emailing me on [email protected] To take this work a step further, check out my website for workshops, retreats and online programmers on www.marcperidis.com

The 15-20 last minutes of every episode have guided listeners through a dive process.When done properly, a dive is a deeply transformative somatic practice to help us reach our highest potential by engaging with our infinite intelligence.This episode talks all about this transformative practice, how it benefits us and how to get the most out of our diving time.The 44 min episode includes a 15 min short dive process at the end. My workshops and retreats offer opportunities to take this process to its highest expression. View my website at www.marcperidis.com to find out more. 

Welcome to the 3rd season of the Mystery School Podcast. This November full moon edition kicks off our 3rd season together as well as a new name and a new format. Each episode will be dedicated to a specific question which I often get from clients, workshop participants, or podcast listeners.For this first episode of the series, it made sense to start from the beginning: How do we get started on a spiritual path? I had some real resistance to making this question a podcast topic, mainly because people who attend my workshops or listen to my podcast tend to be quite knowledgeable and “advanced” when it comes to spirituality. I felt this topic would bore them and wouldn’t fulfill their expectations. This led me to me realise the importance of this topic, not only for those who are beginners on this path but for anyone who might benefit from taking a step back and going back to the crucial basics. Expected answers might include exploring Buddhism, meditation, yoga, or Kaballah. Instead, my answer is as simple as it is complicated. GIVING OURSELVES SPACE. The first step towards a more spiritual life, in my eyes, is to give ourselves as little as 10 minutes per day, to sit in stillness and “beingness” perhaps with a notebook, creating to begin a process of discovery of the truth of who we are. Sometimes exploring the above-mentioned traditional starting points might be frustrating for some who find themselves creating expectations of what is required of them to be “spiritual” or frustrated when they feel like they are unable to “meditate properly.”Beginning to make space sounds simple but in a cultural landscape that values a “time is money” approach of doing and “making the most of life,” it can become easy to think of reasons why making time of ourselves is wasteful and redundant. I disagree. On my path, I have found that the more space I have allowed for stillness, introspection, and practice, the more I have found myself attracting money, love, purpose, and all the other delicious juicy things we run around looking for. For those of you who are more experienced and developed on this path: I know I can’t speak for all of you, but many will often admit they find it hard to make this kind of space for themselves. So what about all the Hay House books, Buddhist temples, Audiobooks, and Kabbalah centers? Those are great, and I can recommend a chunky list of them if required. But my explorations have shown me that making space in our lives allows for the right things to appear at just the right time. Making that time, slowing down, nourishing yourself with good food and enough sleep are the first steps. Trust that the right workshops, teachers, guides, podcasts, and retreats will arrive at just the right time. That is the magic of a world that is working for us rather than against us. I hope you enjoy this episode. It is approximately 35 minutes, including a 13 min dive/practise. I have to say this dive is probably the one I have enjoyed the most on this podcast, so it is worth listening just for this.Feel free to email me on [email protected] or visit my website on www.marcperidis.com for more content like this.
