Beloved Oneness Community,

Tonight, we begin something sacred together: a 40-day journey called Your Ears Are the Womb.

Before you had a name, you knew sound.

You floated in a world of heartbeat, rhythm, vibration, and voice; receiving what reached you before you had the ability to choose it.

You did not choose those first voices.

But now, you can.

For the next 40 days, we will explore a simple and powerful truth:

What you listen to, what you repeatedly give your attention to, and what you allow to enter you can become something you carry. And what you carry eventually finds expression through your words, choices, relationships, and actions.

This journey is an invitation to become more conscious of what you are allowing your ears, and therefore your inner world to receive.

Our Opening Ceremony is tonight at 9:00 PM on Zoom.

Please bring:

• A journal and blue ink pen; your companions for the next 40 days

• A candle

• A glass of water

• A blanket or shawl for comfort

Each day, I will share a short practice and a focus for contemplation.

There is nothing to perfect and nowhere to rush.

If you miss a day, simply return the next day.

There is no falling behind on this path. There is only returning.

Over these 40 days, we will listen more consciously, notice the voices we have internalized, release what no longer belongs within us, and become more intentional about the words we allow to take root.

And when our journey is complete, we will gather again for our Birth Celebration on Friday, November 13—honoring what has been nurtured, transformed, and brought forth through you.

Come exactly as you are.

If you have ears and a heart, you are ready.

In Sacred Service,

April Russell
