Good morning Reader Two days ago I had my first ever “womb massage.” (Correct, I don’t technically have a womb. The intention was to connect to the feminine within myself, ancestrally, genetically and archetypically.) It was really special. And painful. The session included deep, long-hold presses into my abdominal organs — stomach, liver, spleen. And it concluded with being wrapped in a faja (see picture), curling into fetal position, and being sung to. Faja wrap, post-session I walked away…

Last Sunday I had a huge breakdown in front of the community I just met in Boulder, CO.
Huge, sweeping sobs. Loud cries and breaths. Uncontrollable trembling.
I felt extremely embarrassed. These were basically strangers and I didn’t want their first impressions of me to be “negative”.
I spent the last week in sincere meditation analyzing and releasing these deep patterns of guilt and shame.
I’m not fully on the other side yet, but spending those hours in silence cleared out a lot of chronic…

Happy Sunday, Reader ☀️
Do you also feel like things are speeding up? I mean what planet are we even on anymore!? Personally, I’m being confronted with an enormous number of my egoic tendencies relating to money, food and romance.
Plenty of opportunities to shed old attachments.
In gentler news, I’ve been really enjoying my time here in Boulder. In fact, I’m already planning to come back in April to stay for a few months. The community is really incredible, and I have already landed multiple…

Happy Sunday, Reader ☀️
I just completed hiking Acatenango Volcano in Antigua, Guatemala. It was a bruiser, but so worth it!
Spending time in nature always gives me perspective of how precious this planet is. I feel truly blessed to live here and experience all that it has to offer.
Epic views. Check out my Instagram for more pictures.

My time in Guatemala is coming to a close next week. It’s been an incredible two months, but it’s time to head to my next destination…
And where is my next destination? Drum roll, please!! 🥁
I’ll be heading to the beautiful Boulder, CO for the month of February! There, I’ll be able to hunker down release all the yoga content I’ve been working diligently on.
I hope you enjoy this week’s Body • Mind • Spirit Newsletter and have a beautiful Sunday,​- Ethan

Good morning Reader ☀️
I tried “freediving” this week, and let me tell you…I was humbled!
In order to hold your breath underwater for a long time, you need to keep your body perfectly relaxed.
Why? Because the harder you try, the more oxygen you burn, and the more you need to breathe.
Needless to say, relaxing is very difficult when you are constantly being pummeled by waves and cannot breathe through your nose.
Anyways…I had a lot of fun, and learned a ton about my body and mind. I will…

I’m writing this on a beautiful, crisp day in Lake Atitlan, Guatemala while eating ripe papaya.
Life is good here, but it doesn’t come without the “inner work”. I’ve had incredible transformations, both personally and professionally.
Personally, I’ve had a breakthrough in terms of accepting love from others. Although I always enjoyed giving touch, accepting it was a bit like an electric fence — I jolted and contracted away. Not anymore! I can now dance and hug and be…
