Best of Spiritual Grit “We don't know what we don't know so be open to possibilities”-Leslieann Hobayan For today's episode, I invite you to be open to possibilities. Back in the day, I worked (temporarily) at a corporate law firm in Manhattan. We all make assumptions what that was like. What I discovered was that it was possible to be creative, thrive, and enjoy that space. These days, what's coming forward for me now is tarot. I didn't expect it to become such a big presence in my life and in what I do to connect people with their divine knowing. (Of course, now that I say it out loud, it makes sense!) We don't know what we don't know. We don't know what possibilities lie beyond our bubble of what we do know.. Ask yourself what you want right now and tune in to that. Learn and discern between your ego voice and your heart's desire by how your body feels. What if this day turned into everything you hoped for and more? Here's a challenge: begin the day with a sense of possibility, with a beginner's mind. Approach this day as if you were trying something new: be open, be flexible and be ready for anything. Now go play and step into the mystery! Take a listen as I invite you to have fun. Think about what you can create in your life to have more fun and play for yourself. * Follow me on Instagram for Maverick Mondays, Free Verse Fridays, and some real talk about healing, poetry, AND play: @leslieannhobayan or email me at leslieann@suryagian.com * Today's poems/ Books / Oracle / Tarot Reading mentioned: Tarot Card: The Dragonfly “Track Black Wing Bird Emm Gryner 2006” From the book “Letters To Young Brown Girl” by Barbara Jane Reyes

People tend to come to poetry when they're at their lowest points, but it's possible for poetry to become more than that. // Poetry is always a perfect place to notice the highs and lows more acutely rather than just moving through grief, loss, and deprivation unconsciously. // Art happens in our lives as a way of being in ourselves. Everyone's feeling that they're in darkness and struggling so they end up returning to poetry to look for the light. // Let go and trust. You have to acknowledge that there is something supernatural or something unseen that is more powerful than us. // Our right to pass through this place, this planet has everything to do with how properly we are regarding and treating these spaces well. // The importance of awareness of being in a relationship with nature, with the Land and being in a relationship with the things that are unseen that instead of dominating one over the other, it's about being in collaboration with them.In considering Barbara Jane's new poetry collection, how do we frame our experiences as active resistance? How can poetry mirror what is happening so that we can find another way to witness it? // Consider the roles of our elders and our ancestors and our relationships with them when thinking about how we are being in the world. // We also talk a bit about superstitions, ghosts, and our ancestral inheritance. // Today's poems: “Unanimous” by Hafiz , "Acquainted with lightning" by Marjorie Evasco

In this episode, I explore a few questions that come up for those of us on a healing jounery. Are we being our true selves or are we playing roles that people expect us to take on? Who are we? Who are we really? And who are we being? Why is it important to we heal our traumas? And how can we do this when talk therapy doesn't quite complete the job? // Meditation isn't always the answer. (gasp! Don't worry, Ani Pema said it, so it's okay! Haha!) // Can you create warmth for yourself? Can you be gentle with yourself? // Get to the root of the things holding you back, the things no longer serving you. // Today's poems: Hafiz's “Two Bears” and Barbara Jane Reyes's “Track: ‘My Life,' Mary J. Blige (1994).” // Join me on IG Live Tues 9/22-Thurs 9/24 for a free 3-day pop-up training on healing from the inside out.

Two women who emigrated to the US from Asia and both became writers talk to guest presenter Lauren Schiller in San Francisco about their 'messy' relationship with language, their rejection of the American Dream, and how they're trying to break free from labels. Barbara Jane Reyes is a poet, whose work explores language, culture and identity. She was born in Manila in the Philippines, and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. She started writing seriously as a student - when there were very few writers who were voicing her own immigrant experience. She now teaches Philippine Studies at the University of San Francisco and is the author of four books of poetry. She is due to publish her fifth collection, Invocation to Daughters, later this year. Yiyun Li is an award-winning writer. She grew up in Beijing, and moved to the US when she was in her early 20s to study immunology. It was after she had arrived in Iowa and adopted English as her own language that she decided to make the leap from science to creative writing. She has published four works of fiction, and numerous essays. Her latest book is called 'Dear Friend, from My Life I Write to You in Your Life' and it was written while she grappled with depression and was finding solace in other writers. Yiyun teaches creative writing at UC Davis. Image: Barbara Jane Reyes (left) (credit: Oscar Bermeo) and Yiyun Li (right) (credit: Roger Turesson)
