Episode 17: Mysteries of a Rocky Mountain Alchemist Firefighter with Peter May

“I'll tell you the secret. The way [to talk to the fire] is to connect with your fire.” ~Peter May

Peter May is an architect, Grammy-winner, musician, firefighter, athlete, essential oil distiller, Buddhist practitioner and nature guide, among many other talents. He’s a master in his own right as a multi-realm alchemist who creatively partners with all elements of life -- and especially nature -- to support healing, balance, and peace.
As the chief of the Kundalini Fire Department in Crestone, CO, he was many times the only bridge between the clashing forces of urban human development and nature's way. He is currently the lead in the nature-fusion band The Sonic Apothecary, composed of human and plant musicians. He leads Pranacamps, an introduction to practical alchemy, and creates acoustically-tuned plant and mineral alchemies with essential oils, offering them in his Sound Journeys around the country.

“The simplest way to ask someone to be present is to actually just say, ‘Hello.’” ~ Peter May

In this episode you’ll hear about:

The Gateway to Being Present: A habit of saying “hello” to whatever is.
Saying “hello” to something outside of yourself has the potential of that “something” saying “hello” back to you. It means that you’ve chosen to be present in that moment and has the opportunity to reorganize the moment.

“It’s about acknowledgement and awareness.” ~ Peter May

And:

Four-step Practice of Saying “Hello”
1.The physical body.
2.The energy or emotion.
3.The flow of life force coming through you.
4.Emptiness of space.

“Put yourself in a place where things can arise.” ~ Peter May

Plus:

Conscious Allowing: The Zipper Effect
●Combine intention, presence and asking for assistance.
●Connect with silence and acknowledge things that give life and support you so they can acknowledge you back.
●Over time whatever pain you carry will dissolve and other pieces of you will re-integrate into your life.

“Be more open to see and discover who you actually are, not who you think you are”
~ Peter May

Until next time, be curious, be inspired and simplify the way…
