WHAT A YEAR OF FESTIVALS!

          Are you a festival goer? I AM. Do you love music, community, sharing, art, and high levels of energy? I DO.  I feel like I haven't been living properly before this last past year. My first festival I ever went to was in 2010 in Austin TX at an art outside festival. I had no clue what I was getting myself into. It was fun but I didn't go to another festival until November 2012 when I went to BEAR CREEK at the Spirit of the Suwannee. It was like a love bomb went off in my face at that festival.  As of today I have gone to 17 music festivals and 16 of those were within the past year since November '12.  I was asked to go there by a dear friend who said I would be volunteering at Hoola Monsters. I was like COOL I WOULD LOVE TO GO!! I am hired to work there every year now and I am so stoked because Bear Creek was one of my favorites. It is SUPER HARD to pick a favorite though!

            I have never felt this much love in my whole entire life from anyone, anything or any place.  It was truly a breakthrough for me. This I must say is the power of self love. The festivals have helped shape me and who I am as a human being living at this time right now. I am not just a human being but most importantly I am a spiritual being, and always will be. I am free of fear and I am free to live as this and share with others how to do so. This is why we learn something new everyday, this is why we have come here. It may be music festivals, dancing, art, or music but we are a community. Not only are we strong but we know how it feels to do something that helps ourselves for the higher good. I am so thankful for each and every festival I have been to because each one helped add self love in it's own way. 
         After Bear Creek- November 2012, I went off to HOME TEAM FESTIVAL in Lakeland Florida Dec-Jan 12-13. What an amazing community there is at that festival. I mean you will meet the some of the most heart-felt people there. I met some of my closest friends at this festival. They will definitely be life-long friends. Rising Light was introduced to me and that was huge for me! I love the messages and playshops we all give here. We are everyone's reminder. We are powerful beyond measure and forget sometimes. I love spending time with those caring people.  Free Range Roosters, Cope, Green Sunshine, omg I loved all the acts here. You really can not beat local musicians. 
           February I went back to the Spirit of Suwannee for the Aura Festival. WHHHOOOOAAAA WOO  HOOOO how fun!! I do not remember too much of this one if that tells you anything lol.... It was pretty earth shaking. I just remember seeing all the amazing GODDESSES that were there EVERYWHERE. 
           March was my year's first road trip to Austin Tx. I went by myself to most of these events. If you have read previous articles (especially the one about freeing your heart) you will know I am very picky about who I spend my personal time with for GREAT REASONS. Austin had a SXSW festival that had a bunch of artists worldwide come to preform. MY HIGHLIGHT was definitely hanging with BLACK TAXI, out of NY,NY

Black Taxi From NY, NY

after all the shows. We had a fun little party out at their ranch house with all their close friends. I love those guys. I stopped in at New Orleans, LA to get a quick tour! I got to see the whole town because my friend happened to be there and gave me a whole city tour in his convertible. SO BLESSED to know so many kick ass friends. I was headed home and stopped in Lake City FL to see a girlfriend and she was like come to SPRING FEST. I was like well what the hell why not?!! SPRING FEST WAS MUSICALLY THE BEST. I loved Elephant Revival, they were my favorite act here. I loved that after the music ended at night everyone camp fire had musicians there jamming.
       

WAY DOWN UPON THE SUWANNEE RIVER!

WANEE FESTIVAL WAS NEXT! Of course the highlight there was meeting Tyler and having the best time of my life with masculine energy. I fell in love and it was the highest feeling of love I have ever received from anyone my whole life. He really melts my knees every time and did a mighty fine job of it every day after this. Some way or another being in separate states did not matter after this festival! He was not letting go of me, lol. It is sad in my journey, I see how hard I tried to fight his love and push it away. It reminds me of how hard I fought myself from loving myself growing up. I see why hating myself and doing terrible things to myself had a hold of me still. I wanted to push away the love that was clearly strong there, not only from him but still from myself. Thank God for love- first comes self love then the rest falls into place. Wanee was a miracle festival and I tell you what; it was definitely up there with Bear Creek :) Dumpsta Funk and Michael Franti were my favorites acts here. 
         

Where the sun shines brought the Orange Blossom Jamboree and WOW. This festival was ONE OF A KIND.  May brought the perfect season to us on semi windy and free of wind days. The community in St. Petersburg/Tampa is one hard to beat. I am super HAPPY to be apart of this community, even if I do not reside there at the moment. I will always feel the love from this festival. I really opened up and started stepping into my creativity side and starting making flower headbands! I love making them and started selling them on etsy! THE COMMUNITY AT THIS FESTIVALS WINS IN MY BOOK!
        Brandi and I were about to leave to go on our road trip, and we decided to go to Disc Jam to start it right.  DISC JAM in JULY was at the SOSMP. (Spirit of Suwannee) It was really small and REALLY PASSIONATE! I loved seeing Cope and being with all the Waneetopian family members! 
       

Summer Jam was a JAM! Although it was really rainy, and muddy this intimate festivals was really fun! I remember working really hard to whole time with Rising Light and selling my head bands to raise money up for the road trip tour Brandi and I went on. Which we made just enough to get us up there in OH for All Good! ALL GOOD was kind of shitty for me. I worked the festival picking up trash and they pretty much slaved us. I WILL ALWAYS PICK UP MY OWN TRASH, please do the same.... DUH. Anyways had to get that out since I am reliving everything again lol. I got to hug Nahko when he was walking through the crowd and that was one of my highlights! I missed Yonder because I was so tired from working so that was totally LAME. Although I really REALLY enjoyed my special night with Brandi and Buddha during Furthur. 
       

NEXT WAS Gratifly ! That was a fly FLY FLY FLY AWAY beautiful festival. I enjoyed this one greatly. The play shops with reiki, yoga, Entheogens, and RISING APPALACHIA ! I loved the tulip forest with the fairy land and the creek was perfect because it was so hot. I will definitely love to come back to this one. 
          Unitus was GREAT! I felt the love from this one for sure. RISING LIGHT was here as well with Tribal Council and NEON JESUS! I love that man, he is a highlight for me at this one. I loved that I got to meet dear new friends. I also remember talking to John from Copius Jones and actually asking him what he does with his time. HAHAH he just got done drumming but I was not paying attention.... I knew that was to happen at one time or another. I never pay too much attention to the band members and knew one day I would talk to a band member and not have any idea. ;) silly girl.... Anyways Thank you for putting this festival on. Will go back next year. 
          I went to Qi Activation, which actually wasn't a music festival but it was a highlight of this year for me. I received a lot of good vibes from this event. Practice of Qi Gong, Breath empowerment, foot reflexology, and energy healing. Check it out! 
         GRAND FINALLY OF OUR road trip was Interlocken. It was probably one of my least favorites. Terrible entry, long walks, dusty, but the music was AMAZING !  String Cheese was my favorite. 

                                                                     

  HULAWEEN! STRING CHEESE!!!!! HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JELLY DOME!!!!! FERRIS WHEEL! COSTUMES! SCI! HUGS! LIVE OAK! HUGS! DANCING! SCI! THE BEST BIRTHDAY PRESENT EVER!
      

Bear Creek this year was breath taking. I got to hug Zach Deputy. I did not think I was going to make it but I did. Universe was like yeah, um SHAWNEE, why aren't you there? GO!! lol :-) 
      Got miracled two tickets for XMAS Jam. Got to boogie to some Phil Lesh and Widespread so that was fun ! <3 
         IF you made it this far reading my adventures I congratulate you! :) it was quite an experience and I feel like a new person with receiving all that love. Bear Creek last year help influence me to start writing. I have a years worth of blogging and I love to reread what I write. Most of my writing is not only to share it with the world but to share it with myself. When we allow ourselves to open up and receive love, we do. When we ask ourselves "What would someone that love themselves do?", doors open up. When we believe in those doors opening up, they do. Don't ask how, why, where, when.... Just ask for it, believe in it and receive it. <3 Thank you for writing and thank you for reading. With much love.

Peace. Be Calm in Your Heart.

Sometimes we get caught in these episodes of life and feel like we become those things that brings us down. We notice ourselves talking down about someone, or we notice we are eating too much, or we are not exercising, or we are being mean to someone. All of this stuff easily comes in and tries to control us. We have to remember that we are not a victim of karma and we cause these episodes to come to teach us. To give us what we have been asking for some reason. We have to own our actions, trust ourselves and see our thoughts. Replacing thoughts that are causing the episodes with whole, complete and powerful thoughts. This happens for greater reason in which your heart tells you presently.  It is not for us to beat ourselves up and cause more havoc, but to realize we are much more powerful than silly gossip, we are much worthy of doing yoga, or being so wealthy of love we remember how important self or group meditation is, and to do it daily.

Free handing it-Shawnee Faye Hunter 

Perfected imperfections within lives duties,
Synchronized harmonized melodies of saintly truths,that enfold our lights of holy grail fragments of pure white substance,we sings and dance and choose to let go of the emptiness,the stagnations of troubles lost in the midst of servant's cries. Shanti and singing the most we are able to squeeze all the love and grace into the atmosphere. Oh Namah Shivaya, we remember lullabies that told us space, and remember we are much capable of the moving mountains mentioned, in the samba lamba previous sanction of crystallined wealths that most can love, we are peace, the calmness in the hearts that sings golden bridges together.Sarva Mangala can tell you that this is part of the imperfection which is perfect moving into perfect within oneself. Breathe Deep, Breathe In Nature, Breathe Deep. Breathe In your self Love. Breathe in The Love of Others. Breathe In for others who can not Breathe. Breathe In! Be Calm in your Heart, Peace is.

Mighty I AM Presence, Take Out of Me The Feeling that Obstructs The Way

Say Yes To What Is and Learn How to Accept

Can we stop in our steps and just accept all that is presented to us at all times? Acceptance that we are infinite beyond all measures and can do anything we put our mind's to. We are fun-loving gladiators of the Universe with the power of our thoughts to help shape it. I am finding more in my life the meaning of acceptance. Learning that the most simplest thing to do is the hardest thing to accomplish because we are over thinkers. Why do we have to be so complex and over analyze everything that comes into our lives? Why don't we just accept the fact that self love is the only way to go and self acceptance is the most rewarding. Acceptance of everyone and their own paths is very challenging and once we overcome this we feel like a weight has been lifted off our shoulders. We think oh, what their doing is wrong and they should do this that way, etc. This is judgement and therefore we judge ourselves. We need to sweep around our own doors and start simple by remembering it's baby steps. Some ways that help me accept everything around me are the following reminders. It's a learning process; we must be open and allow our all knowing intuition in to help. 

• Notice our thinking pattern. Acknowledge all thoughts and be the true creator we are by choosing to feed the good ones. Don't discriminate if we have a negative thought just realize it and say YOU HAVE NO POWER. Replace with a better thought.  
  
• Hug yourself daily. It works and I am a walking living proof of it. Try it! HUG YOURSELF DAILY. IF you are here reading this right now that means you deserve this reminder. REWARD YOURSELF! <3 
• ACCEPT ACCEPT ACCEPT ACCEPT. Accept compliments by taking a deep breath in to accept this energy given to us. We obviously are well deserving of the compliment in the first place! Accept help when offered with true intentions. Accept other people for their flaws. Accept ourselves for our own flaws. Accept the grass being green or in some cases brown. Accept the Sky being rainy on a day we wanted sunshine. Accept our feelings are apart of the package. Accept that they are not always going to be roses and sunlight beach days. Accept our family with all their flaws.
  
  ACCEPT ACCEPT ACCEPT 
• BE HUMOROUS! Look at the life around us with a light soft touch. Let go of the weight we all want carry onto so badly! LET GO and just LAUGH A LITTLE BIT ! Not everything has to be all serious ALL the time ya know?
• Sing or hum while we're out shopping or anywhere in public please. People need light hearted people like us in their world. Hearing someone else hum brings so much joy into my own life it truly gets me high.
  
   
• REMEMBER TO BREATHE. Deep conscious rounding out lower belly breaths are the breadwinners. Bring that oxygen into our body all over so our red blood cells can separate and celebrate!!! Attract our heart's truest desires faster with these breaths meanwhile giving our body all the well deserve love it requires.  
• SAY AND AFFIRM affirmations all the time! This is what I replace my negative thoughts with. For example: Negative thought: "Everything I do is useless." Acknowledge the feeling from this thought. AFFIRM and REPLACE WITH- "YOU HAVE NO POWER. I AM with full meaning and everything I do is done for a reason. I trust myself with every choice I make." (check out Bella Healing's Affirmation page for more affirmations.)
• YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT. Enough said. All raw food has the most energy from it because it is still living. When we cook food we kill it and it give our body no nutrition. 
  
• Drink at least a gallon of good clean 100% spring water daily. 
• YOGA and MEDITATION will give our life meaning. Short and sweet; this is the bottom line. 

Do all we can in this life to help raise the vibrations we live in. Remember we are all energy so let's get to loving ourselves so other people can love themselves. Our bodies are all forgiving, so let us remember what our bodies need. We are no different from the waves in the ocean in the aspect of energy. One wave may be far away from another wave but they are still one ocean. Let us meditate on compassion, patience, and loving kindness to help stop the suffering everywhere. It starts with changing our own perception and not pointing fingers to really make the difference.

I see us all holding hands and dancing again like we did once before and now is the time to buckle up and come along with us to do that. Unification will happen and is happening as I type this and as we read this. It is happening with the energy of all our brothers and sisters. We are going through so much hardship we are realizing we do not want to live this way. Meditate on human compassion, patience, and loving kindness. Only good can come from it which will accelerate the process and be of assistance. With great honor I want to thank everyone who reads and applies these simple reminders in their everyday life. Let's appreciate all the small things and accept all that is presented each and every moment.

LEARN HOW TO: Bathe Your Emotional Body

Emotionally, some of us are bruised, battered and beaten! Doesn't matter how we got there because pointing fingers never solved anything. Even pointing fingers at ourselves will not pamper that emotional body, who is crying out for some love. We get into the rat race of life, forget about our feelings, how to tender, love, and care for them when needed. Create Balance!!

Here is a few EASY ways to help bathe and balance our own emotions during our everyday life. I say bathe simply being, our emotional body subconsciously connects with water. We are made out of mostly molecules of water and so is Mother Earth. Lets give back to our selves and to our Mother, for now is the time to do so! 

Are you living your life in a state of bliss and happy to be alive? Do you wake up in the morning with intention to do something great to contribute to the world we live in? 

Are you living your life lost, confused, unhappy, and mad you are alive? Do you wake up in the morning not knowing why you are going to work doing the same old thing day in day out?

When you live your life in a state of bliss, you are fulfilling your god-given right to do so. This is challenging to do so because when emotionally bruised we attract that emotionally bruised situation. To break the ongoing pattern of situations arising, we must be very diligent, never giving up! 

• Ask yourself, "What would Someone that loved themselves do?" 
• Forgive yourself for past situations. Let go of feelings that no longer serve your highest good.
• Understand we are in this together.
• Filter your thoughts and eliminate negative ones about yourself and others.
• Notice when you have a negative thought about yourself or others. Replace it with something more powerful. For instance, thought- "I can never do that right every time I try" Then ouch, you notice you said something negative toward yourself. Your replacement thought is, " I am getting better and better each time I try this" 
• Give yourself baths, light candles, listen to soothing music at least once a week! 
• HUG YOURSELF! You are worthy of this action!!!!
• Do not condemn or judge others for their actions. Everyone has their own path and that is not yours! When you condemn others, you are condemning yourself. Take a look inside when you notice yourself always gossiping. 
• Write down all the things you are thankful for in your life. Keep a journal of gratitude. 
• Create a God-Box. Any box or container you can put pieces of affirmations, goals, prayers, or anything you wish into it. Our angels are always waiting to help, we only need to give them permission to do so! 
• Create a dream board. A corkboard that you can put all your aspirations and dreams on. THIS IS A GREAT TOOL!!! 
• Bella Healing  Click on this link to Bella Healing Facebook. This is an affirmations page I've created to help myself and others. The photos have the affirmation. Pick one a day and set your intention each morning. Affirmations help connect to your mental body which helps with the diligent work needed to be done to heal your emotional body. For example some great affirmations are below.
• Turn off the television and go outside for a nature walk. 
• Dance your heart out when you go out to party. Who cares what people think about you?
• Sing or hum in public, being happy is contagious! 
• Create time to be with yourself, and meditate! People say they don't have time to meditate- GET REAL- You have time to watch an episode of True Blood, you have time to meditate! PLUS when you meditate, you gain more time anyways. YOU WILL SEE.
• Join a yoga class. Yoga is easy, beneficial for all, and it's best friends with your emotions!
• LAUGH!!!!!!! Laughing is an all around medicine that works for all diseases! Even if you have to turn on some Family Guy, just LAUGH!
• When drinking water, THINK/VISUALIZE "THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS NUTRITION-I LOVE YOU!" The water will move through your body with this vibration which will make you feel uplifted, satisfied, and happy. According to Dr Masaru Emoto, Author and Entrepreneur, water carries a molecule structure of higher or lower vibration when the human consciousness visualizes or thinks that frequency into the water.  For instance, when visualizing or feeling hate the water will separate causing it to look confused or disoriented under the microscope. If the water has positive intention like, gratitude or self love, it will reflect that in the molecule, causing the molecule to be full, beautiful, whole and connected. Everytime I drink water I think I love you and thank you so much for this nutrition. It make the world of difference. TRY IT! 

Essential Oils can help alleviate some emotion burdens you may have as well. Grapefruit, mandarin, and tangerine quell the anxiety and stimulate productivity. Healing with Essential Oils Click here for a whole page of essential oils to help with emotional healing.

The chinese medicine says that the liver is connect to the emotional expressions. Here are some herbs that help protect and heal the liver. Dandelion cleanses the liver and helps support healthy emotional expression.  Milk thistle protects and restores the liver. Schisandra berry protects the liver from toxins and emotional anxiety. Chrysanthemum flower cleanses the liver and clears toxins. White peony root soothes the liver and balances moods.

It is important to accept yourself as you are, this means with all the emotions. We are human, so it is inevitable we will feel sad, mad, angry, happy, excited, and so on. Balance is key and I want everyone to know, it does not help for you to beat yourself up for feeling any of these emotions. Our emotions talk to us so that we may adjust certain areas of our life. This simply means we need to do less of one thing and more of another. Go over the list I created and see what areas of your life you can adjust accordingly to create that balance. 

If you or anybody you know needs to talk to someone for emotional support, please contact me. ShawneeHunter@gmail.com - I am very happy to help in any way that I possibly can. Thank you for reading!
