We surf the inbetween waves, as we get super expanded in this out of body meditation. We surf the cosmos and the quantum entanglements that surround Earth.

Today on Sense of Soul we have Wonder Bob. He has quested for awareness his entire life. He grew up in a mystery school based on the Knights Templar and became its International President.  After self-financing his engineering degree, he continued as a community leader in neighborhood associations and created a historic district to protect the homes in his Denver neighborhood. As a world peace embassador he traveled the world staying in peoples homes to learn culture and establish international friends. He visited the Soviet Union in 1981 under the Brezhnev administration. After establishing career, marriage, and property, he received a wake up call in 2000.  When asked “What will it take to become conscious?” The universe responded: EVERYTHING.  So he sold all his possessions and donned a backpack allowing universal intelligence to have its way with him.  Surfing the Synchronicity brought him to the Himalayas, the ancient pathways of the Ascended Masters, teaching english in Vietnam, and rediscovering the divine feminine in Asia. On his return to the Untied States Wonder Bob sequestered himself in a 10-year meditation in the wilderness with no running water, electricity, or cell phone service. By letting the earth, nature, and cosmos have its way with him, he accessed his ancient memories and woke up. Wonder Bob shares what he's learned through online classes, personal sessions, music and retreats, at his Mystik Mountain Retreat House in Crestone, Colorado.

Everyone Says “Just Trust the Process”—But THIS Is What That Really MeansThere is a sensation that everything is unfolding simultaneously — because it is, and yet it isn't.There's a butterfly effect occurring between all dimensions and timelines.I caution that the EGO of being the constant "Guardian at the Gate" getting self worth by being the "SHOUTER from the roof top" can actually make you stuck......dense and less able to sense the next phase occurring.This time feels like we are teetering on the edge of collapse, like a fragile house of cards ready to unravel at a moment's notice — and yet, somehow, it remains standing.This tension exists because two timelines are pulling apart, two streams of consciousness diverging in ways we've only just begun to feel.Up until now, many of us have been balancing precariously between these timelines, trying to remain grounded in the ascending timeline — a space of higher consciousness —while still holding enough presence in the denser, lower timeline to relate to those around us.This is NOT about hierarchy, its about awareness.BUT.....this balancing act is exhausting.It asks you to straddle worlds that are drifting further apart, making the stretch feel impossible.You cannot live in both forever.One timeline is moving toward revelation: disclosure about what has long been hidden — extraterrestrials among us, political corruption, the unraveling of monetary systems.These truths promise liberation, but liberation of the mind is a heavy burden.The other timeline is dense with confusion, denial, and a refusal to acknowledge what is on the horizon.This duality creates a turbulent inner landscape — moments of bliss followed by moments of unraveling.It is no coincidence. You have been surfing two currents of reality, but soon the split will demand a choice.Each timeline is moving toward a bottleneck — a narrowing point where commitment becomes unavoidable.For those deeply rooted in density, this bottleneck asks: Are you certain this is your path?To commit to this path means embracing your identity as someone grounded in a denser reality. It is not a failure, but a conscious decision to walk a slower, more grounded and see the BEAUTY of bridging the ancient and the future.Provide a caption (optional)Relinquishment is inevitable here — a letting go of the possibility to ascend into higher consciousness.Yet, even then, the door is not closed forever. Opportunities to shift will arise but will become progressively harder to grasp.The bottleneck refines your frequency, crystallizing you more deeply into your chosen reality.For those moving into higher consciousness, the bottleneck asks a similar question: Are you sure you want to devote yourself to this elevation?This path asks for the courage to let go of illusions, of ego, of identities that no longer serve you.It asks for trust — trust not in external validation, but in the infinite, eternal nature of love and in your own inner guidance.This journey inward is both terrifying and liberating.To walk through this bottleneck is to become the center of your own light — to hold your power without surrendering it to the chaos around you.The higher timeline calls with visible signs — energies of allowing, acceptance, and surrender.It invites you to trust life itself, not as a blind submission, but as an alignment with an order far greater than what the mind can comprehend.Beyond this bottleneck lies a new realm of consciousness — a crystalline clarity and expansive freedom where choice is restored, and limitations dissolve.There is no permanent limbo between these timelines. The in-between is a brief moment of transition, a sacred space for lightworkers to anchor and guide others through.On the other side, the ancient light codes of Lemuria await.These codes — embedded deep in the fabric of our consciousness by ancestors who remember the true nature of existence — are a beacon calling us into higher densities.Your ancestors knew this moment would come — the moment of pressure, of revelation, of choice.They left a support system woven into the very Earth, a lighthouse guiding us through the constriction of timelines.Disclosure is not the salvation we seek. It is a milestone, but not the destination.True liberation arises when you stand as the center of your own world — when external events no longer dictate your peace or your power.Each of us is invited now to awaken to this truth.You are not alone in this.We are flowing through this bottleneck together, called to a deeper remembrance of who we truly are.You may wonder which timeline you are on, or if you might get stuck.There is a kind of willful ignorance involved in choosing the dense path — a knowing yet denial that lets one continue unconscious.But the invitation now is to embrace the unknown — to surrender control and dance with life's unfolding.This new world is open to you.Step into it.The support is here.Allow yourself to feel the light codes, to trust the process, and to know with certainty that you are enough exactly as you are.Seven Insights to Guide You Through the Timeline Bottleneck* When two realities pull apart, the tension you feel is not confusion — it is the universe asking you to choose where your soul will stand.* Surfing two timelines is a temporary grace; eventually, the split requires commitment and clarity of intention.* The bottleneck is not a punishment but a doorway — it refines your essence and crystallizes your truth.* True ascension is not about external proof or disclosure; it is about becoming the unwavering center of your own light.* Fear of loss — of loved ones, identity, comfort — is natural, but love itself is infinite and transcends all timelines.* The ancient light codes embedded in the Earth and your DNA are waiting to awaken you to a higher reality.* To move forward, surrender control, trust the process of life, and remember that you are never truly alone in this journey.Ask yourself:My dear soul...... What would it feel like to no longer depend on external validation?How might your life change if you fully embraced the unknown?What part of your identity are you ready to release in order to ascend?If you'd like to deepen your commitment to stepping out of the noise and into your deepest and highest timeline and what your higher soul has to share with you -IntroducingThe Light Between Oracle – your personal Clarity Engine.This Journey helps you cut through the noise and embrace your journey with confidence.This Journey helps you cut through the noise and embrace your journey with confidence.Here's how it reduces everyday overwhelm.* Daily Insights: Sharpen focus and align actions with your truth.* A 5-Layer Path to get clear in times of stress or a daily self inquiry for growth and expansion.NEXT STEPS: 1.

In a world obsessed with control, success, and self-determination, the words “Your will be done” can feel risky counterintuitive. In this message, Pastor Dan Belshaw unpacks the radical invitation at the heart of this prayer: to surrender, trust, and align our lives with God's purposes. Whether you're facing uncertainty, wrestling with decisions, or just tired of trying to hold it all together, this message is a reminder that God's will isn't just right - it's good. If you're looking for clarity, peace, and direction that lasts beyond the moment, this message is for you.

In this week's episode of The Temple of Surf Podcast, we welcome a special guest whose name carries deep resonance in the world of surfboard shaping: Joshua Martin. Son of legendary shaper Terry Martin, Joshua has not only inherited a profound legacy, he's forged his own path with authenticity, humility, and a deep respect for the craft. Our conversation begins by tracing his early years growing up in Capistrano Beach, California, where the shaping bay was his playground and the scent of resin and foam filled the air. Joshua reflects on his father's influence, not just in terms of technical knowledge, but in the values Terry instilled, integrity, patience, and a relentless dedication to quality. He shares beautiful memories of watching his dad shape thousands of boards for Hobie Surfboards, and how shaping wasn't just a job in the Martin household, it was a way of life. But this episode is far from a nostalgic glance backward. Joshua brings us into the present, offering insight into his own shaping philosophy. He speaks passionately about handcrafting each board with intention, ensuring that every rail, rocker, and line serves both performance and personal expression. For Joshua, a surfboard isn't just equipment, it's a functional piece of art, a tool for joy, and sometimes even a spiritual object. His deep respect for the natural elements — from sustainably sourced wood to the rhythm of the waves,guides his approach to design. We also explore the evolving role of craftsmanship in the era of machine-made boards and mass production. Joshua doesn't shy away from technology, but he stands firm in the belief that hand shaping offers something irreplaceable, a human connection. Whether he's creating a custom single fin or a modern fish, each of his boards is infused with the soul of the craftsman. It's a process he describes as “listening to the blank,” allowing the shape to emerge through collaboration with the material and the surfer. Throughout the episode, Joshua also touches on his collaborations with other artists, his love for woodwork, and the deep cultural history that shapes his work, from Hawaiian traditions to California counterculture. He opens up about the challenges of carrying a family name with such weight, and how he's learned to honor it without being confined by it. For anyone passionate about surf culture, this episode is a reminder of the values that ground the sport,,authenticity, community, respect for nature, and the enduring power of craft. Joshua Martin is not just continuing a legacy; he's shaping a meaningful future for surfing, one board at a time. Tune in to this soulful and insightful episode — available now on all major podcast platforms.

In this episode of the Postural Respiration podcast I am joined by Cody Gillis, DPT, PRC, CSCS. Cody grew up in Boston, MA and earned his DPT from Northeastern University in 2017. It was during his time at Northeastern that he was introduced to PRI by the Strength and Performance staff their who had utilized various positional activities with their athletes. During this explorative track as a 3rd year DPT student Cody was pursuing his Strength & Conditioning certification and spending time with the performance team there. Cody admits to being skeptical at first regarding what he saw but wanted to learn more. During his two required 6 months clinicals Cody gained experience in a local orthopedic setting, but it was during his second rotation that he truly immersed himself. Moving to Hawaii and spending time learning from Randy Fukuji and the clinical cases at Fukuji & Lum in Honolulu produced a desire to dig even deeper. Cody recalls a specific patient that impacted him early on, who had tried everything and been everywhere, but was coming to the clinic solely to work through the Right Sidelying - Left Adductor Pullback technique because that one technique did more for the patient than anything else had. Once Cody heard this he knew it was time to take his first course.Almost immediately Cody was on a flight from Hawaii to New York for his first course, Postural Respiration. Over the following years Cody completed his additional coursework and became certified as part of the 2021 PRC Class. Out of all the coursework he has completed, Cody credits Impingement & Instability and the concepts therein, for providing him the link to a more neurological mindset which has shaped his practice ever since. After spending many years learning and treating at Fukuji & Lum in Hawaii, Cody's desire to spend more one on one time with individual clients, led him to create Respire, initially as a personal training and coaching opportunity in his spare time. After getting married and moving back to the mainland Cody opened his Respire Physiotherapy doors, offering all encompassing care in Santa Barbara and Monterey California.Cody has a strong interest in interdisciplinary care and has attended numerous conferences with other disciplines including joining the PRI community at past AAPMD meetings among others. Most recently Cody's desire to understand and communicate with other disciplines, led him to undergo a PRI Mini Residency at the Hruska Clinic.  We discuss his time here and what offering an integrative treatment plan looks like for him as he navigates building relationships with other professionals and offering patients holistic care via those relationships. Cody has a passion for being on, in, or near the water and he looks forward to working with more individuals in the surfing community as well as pursuing more knowledge and the autonomic regulation required of the sport of Free Diving and those who do it.

“It feels like we were out at sea. We got washed overboard by a big wave and we're floating around in life vests, and wave after wave of transformation is washing over us.” Those were the words of a corporate finance leader a few years back to Tom Hood, CPA/CITP, CGMA, executive vice president–Business Growth & Engagement for the Association of International Certified Professional Accountants.

Saxon Baltzer, from Huntington Beach California, is a surfer, musician, and skateboarder. And Saxon recently won the National Scholastic Surfing Association Championship. In this episode we discuss the following: I'm truly inspired by Saxon's drive and commitment. Though he started to surf at age two, it was his commitment in high school that set him up for his national championship. Waking up early each weekday to first attend seminary, and then get to the beach, Saxon refined his skill while also learning to surf all kinds of waves. And he was also flexible, willing to focus on long boarding to get on his high school team. And what a wild story about his national competition: forgetting his board, borrowing his coach's, nailing a buzzer beater on Saturday, saying a prayer to find his board, finding it with Dimitri, and then landing another clutch buzzer beater on Sunday for the national championship. And most remarkably, Saxon is now giving up surfing for two years and moving across the country to share a gospel message in hopes of helping others. As Saxon so perfectly demonstrates, sacrifice, persistence, and passion are key to success.   Connect on Social Media: X: https://twitter.com/nate_meikle LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/natemeikle/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nate_meikle/ Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@nate.meikle

Ever tried surfing and ended up just swallowing seawater? That's what life feels like when you're glued to the problem and forget to look up. In this episode, I share how learning to surf taught me more about perspective than any self-help book ever could. We'll break down why your brain loves to panic, how focusing on the wrong thing can make you fall (literally and metaphorically), and the simple hacks that help you zoom out when you're stuck in the weeds. Think of it as a manual for getting out of your own way—using surfboards, driving lessons, and a dash of Bob Marley. Takeaways: Use physical cues or mantras to trigger perspective shifts. Schedule regular “look up” moments—weekly reviews, coaching, or just a walk. Reframe panic as a signal to check your focus, not a reason to double down.
