✨ Being multipassionate isn't a flaw. It's your magic. It's not your fault that you love so many things and you're good at them hehe. You're not scattered for wanting to weave together all the parts of you. You're not “unfocused” for dreaming in more than one direction. You're a mystic, a creative, an artist. You're here to live in layers.That means honoring the thread that ties it all together.

This eclipse season shadows are already fun because all the clarity you got around summer solstice is kinda...dissipating. All the excitement you felt around your decisions is now feeling more emotional. These delayed emotions might make you second guess your choices, or dysregulate your nervous system. But that's truly the test! You're being asked to backtrack and look at the wounds you overlooked and maybe acted out of integrity towards. We're there casualties in your moves? Think of this eclipse as a clearing. The Pisces energy says lets close chapter for real and virgo energy says step into this self-realized energy for real. The emotional and logically meet together.  ▲ Join Mystic Codes Immersion + Mastermind for Healers: https://alwaysplay.org/mystic _________________________________ Go Deeper: BREATHWORK ⭐ Study breathwork with me: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com SHADOW WORK ⭐ https://www.alwaysplay.org/shadow-work PERFECTIONISM RESOURCES: ⭐ Perfectionism Quiz: https://www.alwaysplay.org/perfection HEALING ARTS ⭐ Discover your healer archetype: https://www.alwaysplay.org/healerarchetype ⭐ Healing Arts Courses: https://alwaysplay.org/courses __________

Why are you in an uncommitted relationship with your dreams? The inconsistency! The avoidance! Poor communication habits! You will never do this with an actual person that you were building a relationship with, so why is it that you do this with your dreams and desires? Just like you would work towards your insecurities and triggers in a relationship with a person, your dream requires the same type of energy. When you look at the core of your habits, thoughts, and behaviors when it comes to the pursuit of your dreams and desires, are you a good partner or is it giving avoidance hot and cold behavior? Grab your tea and your blanket and let's get into it.

There comes a time in your healing journey when it's time for energy work. Healing happens in stages.  In the beginning, you want to talk about why you have dirty dishes in the sink. You want to analyze and understand.  Next, you figure out how to remove and clean said dishes.  Then, comes the invisible. Even when you cleared your sink, there's still a residue. There's a smell. You can't put your finger on it it but you know it's there.  There's something in the drain.  Time for energy work. Intentional energy work gets to the core of how your nervous system, your energetic body, and your emotions are all intertwined together.  When you understand everything mentally, but rarely work on the emotional intelligence required in your physical body to navigate the frequency and energetic shifts of your healing… you come to a standstill.  It feels like you're stuck. You know there's still something there, but it doesn't make sense logically anymore.  This is energetic.  You can't think you're way out of this.  You must feel and recalibrate your energy.  Are you ready? ▲ Join Mystic Codes Immersion + Mastermind for Healers: https://alwaysplay.org/mystic _____________________ ▲ Become a certified breathwork facilitator: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com/   ▲ Learn your Healer Archetype: www.alwaysplay.org/healerarchetype   ▲ Read my Breathwork book, Breathe: www.alwaysplay.org/orderbreathe    ▲ Free Playground for Mystics: https://tinyurl.com/playground222    ▲ Connect on social: @shanila.sattar ▲ YouTube: https://youtube.com/c/shanilasattar ▲ Healing Arts Practitioner Training Program Immersion: www.alwaysplay.org/immersion

There comes a time where you revisit your role in the collective. At some points, you're the bridge, and other points - you're the lighthouse, guiding folks towards the frequency you have learned to embody. Through your shadow work, clearing karmas, and breaking cycles, you reach a point where now you practice your healing. You practice the BEING. When you're on this energetic embodiment path, the way you show up in your purpose looks radically different.  In this episode, I break down: - the difference between the bridges and the lighthouse healers - how to embody each role - what the future holds with each ▲ Join Mystic Codes Immersion + Mastermind for Healers: https://alwaysplay.org/mystic _____________________ ▲ Become a certified breathwork facilitator: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com/   ▲ Learn your Healer Archetype: www.alwaysplay.org/healerarchetype   ▲ Read my Breathwork book, Breathe: www.alwaysplay.org/orderbreathe    ▲ Free Playground for Mystics: https://tinyurl.com/playground222    ▲ Connect on social: @shanila.sattar ▲ YouTube: https://youtube.com/c/shanilasattar ▲ Healing Arts Practitioner Training Program Immersion: www.alwaysplay.org/immersion

Maybe you're finding that it's really difficult to create an offer that feels aligned with you right now. Perhaps you're at the tail beginning of it, or you're outgrowing offers that previously made a lot of sense to you but no longer resonate. There's a reason why your soul blueprint changes and shifts overtime. In this episode we're talking about how to create soul offers that feel fully alive for you.  PS. Mystic Codes Immersion + Mastermind is open for healers ready to go to the next level.

You charge the way you do not because of “accessibility”, but because you haven't healed your wealth consciousness. Money in the hands of spiritually inclined folks does the world so much better. We're the ones closing Wellness gaps, creating accessible tools for well-being, putting efforts towards environmental conservation, social justice, and activism work. We can't do this if we are stressed, drained, and in constant survival mode. You will get ill if you're not already. This is not a cute trauma to wear as a badge. ✨How would I have able to facilitate Breathwork for over 20,000 people since 2018 for free inside The Breathwork Club if I was barely surviving myself? ✨How would we give $300,000 in scholarships to healers if we didn't have the resources built to do so? ✨How could we implement free programming in our communities if we weren't taken care of ourselves? 2. You don't hate sales and marketing; you have a visibility issue. You have a fear of being seen that's deeply rooted in wounds that you've bypassed for years. Showing up authentically dysregulates your nervous system. You value people's perceptions of you more than you care about pursuing things you love. You fear being visible will highlight your perceived flaws, mistakes, or “imperfections.” The fear you carry about not being “good enough” makes you want to hide rather than show up authentically.

In 2017 and 2018 I was one of the first in Southern California to receive grant funding from the state of California to implement holistic healing art programs in clinical populations. I was able to put in programming at women's shelters, veterans legions, low income schools, and recovery centers. This work was a pivotal moment where breathwork, Sound healing, and meditation practices were just seeing their ways into a non-aesthetic wellness space. And when I founded The Healing Arts Academy, often referred to as the graduate school for healing arts by my students

New codes are coming online.  https://alwaysplay.org/mystic

Healers, visionaries, and creatives are emerging from a six month death portal! Sounds cute! If you've been feeling the heaviness of letting go of identities, shapes, and ways of being… you're emerging into a new timeline. In this episode let's talk about what it's going to look and feel like coming out of the death portal, and why you are better prepared than ever to be in your mission.

Do you ever feel like somebody is reading your mind? Like whatever you're going through they are directly tapped into your experience. How did they know? Are they inside your mind? In this episode I talk about this phenomenon and how certain people seem to know exactly what you're experiencing in such great details. It's like we have met before. ___________________

Mercury is in Gatorade again and with it, brings a few exciting energies. This retrograde is based in Leo, where you're learning to express how you love, how you want your love to be perceived, and who is the real you? Mercury is the planet of communication, asking you to bring focus on how you are communicating your needs and also being in communication with others. It is the difference between evolution into your new chapter or settling for the comfort.  

Welcome to your July 2025 Mid-Year Energy Forecast. Theme: Your inner child needs attention! This energy is all about acknowledging the inner child within you, and a different type of attention they're seeking right now. As you go into the rest of 2025, you'll feel their voice get more apparent, their wounds louder, and the need for you to face some emotions you didn't know you were ignoring.

Lessons from the Summer Solstice 2025 Theme: Closing karmic cycles It's time to end karmic cycles. You might notice obvious endings where past patterns are have been coming to a close. Sometimes these endings are a long time coming and other times it's sudden. But these endings are low key… a RELIEF.  Karmic circles represent lessons to be learned. The same things keep showing up in different fonts until you finally choose YOURSELF with love and compassion. Understand that others can only meet you as deeply as they can meet themselves. Instead of falling in love with somebody else's potential, choose to heal this timeline by choosing differently (even if challenging) for yourself. You'll be presented with many new doors and you'll have to build your own courage to believe that you worthy enough to walk through them. If you're generally sensing a narrative about your worthiness, especially questioning if YOU are a vibrational match for what you seek and desire, this solstice portal will help you break the cords and reveal even clearly the strings that were already at play.

I did 100 days of breathwork and here's what happened… On Jan 1, I invited my online community to practice 77 Flow, where we did 7 mins of breathwork for 77 days to create ease and flow from within instead of the rigid goals that come with the calendar new year. On the spring equinox, we wrapped up our 77 days, but many of us kept going! What we found about ourselves through a consistent daily (only 7 mins) practice was humbling, tender, and powerful. We kept connected through group channel, recognize what this very personal practice was showing for each of us.
