Had a beauty of a float last weekend. It was the first in a while where I was really able to surrender and feel myself dissolve into the void. It's useless tryin to communicate the paradox of how this emptiness and this nothingness is actually so full and filled with such bliss and love. But others who have had this experience underatand without words. For a while my mind was so busy and my body so tense I couldn't totally get what I remembered having from previous floats. This is why its so important to never have expectations about hows its gonna be in there. Just let go and let the experince be what ever it is. Without judgment.

The path to liberation is effortless for those without prefrences. Roofing too has its beauty.

This book has really been givin it to me. An Ayahuasca Shaman once told me "Sometimes, the only way to cure brainwashing is with more brainwashing." Thats all words can ever be. But this book points to a state of being that we can all achieve with practice. The world is full of division and anger. What we need now more than ever is love and unity. This book is a fantastic tool along the path and I've only read 2 chapters thus far. #belovenow #beherenow #ramdass #spiritual #spiritualpath #yoga #bhaktiyoga #mantras #india #guru #love #unity #compassion (at Halifax, Nova Scotia)

Hot dank fire sunset last night out in the Nish. Great way to end a day of hard work. I went through a phase of being quite adverse to working but now I just see it as another moment like any other, filled with oppritunities to learn and grow, to be present, and to love.

The view from the peak while roofin in Antigonish the other day. Enjoying life doesn't come from changing the outside circumstances into some sort of fairy tale world. Enjoyment comes from being totally and completely engaged with the present moment. It doesn't matter if its hard labour, doing the dishes, holding a loved one close, making music or driving a car, these moments are our life passing us by. Lets not miss a beat. It will all be over soon enough. #roofing #antigonish #peak #view #hills #ocean #lakes #novascotia #AtlanticCanada #eastcoastlifestyle #hardwork #work #enjoy #life #death #presence #beherenow #spirituality #meditation #love #maritimes (at Antigonish, Nova Scotia)

A shot from a beach in Antigonish. Had a really great trip last night with some friends in Hali, one of the biggest lessons I kept coming back to is the sheer futility of talking. Of course, talking and thinking have many valuble uses. But in terms of a complete and ultimate understanding of existence goes, the logic making mind will never come close. Trying to speak less and simply be present more is always a practice I can do better with. #ocean #Atlantic #canada #novascotia #eastcoast #antigonish #atlanticocean #eastcoastlifestyle #ice #iceclampers #iceburgs #winter #spring #speakless #bepresent #beherenow #belovenow (at Antigonish, Nova Scotia)

The sun shines just as bright regardless of if anyone is looking. Be the best version of yourself you can be. Do not be concerned with praise or blame. Keep your attention focused within. And become radiant like the sun. For no reason. #sunrise #novascotia #eastcoast #eastcoastliving #maritimes #Canada #lake #nature #wilderness #dawn #newday (at Halifax, Nova Scotia)

Had an wonderful float on Tuesday. My floats, latley, have been starting out adressing all the issues in my physical body. I have all kinds of wierd twiches and quick spasms. Sometimes a certain muscle will just vibrate for a few seconds. This goes on for a while as my body slowly lets go of all the tension. Most of the float there after was spend in a very pleasent state of emptiness. My mind was truely still and without activity. Just breathing, my blood pulsing, and vast empty space. Bliss. A thought did come eventually, it was all about the question; what is true love? It became obviouse that true love is so vast its totally non-personal. Has nothing to do with ownership. True love towards an individual is not a wanting to have them yourself, but a very real and present feeling of wanting only the highest good for that person, and basing ones actions toward them, or lack there of, upon that ideal. Furthermore, that loves highest point is wanting only that highest good for all beings. Every person, aminal, plant and grain of sand. Living this way can't lead to anything other than a fullfilled life filled with passion, devotion and purpose. I truly believe the float tanks, yoga, and other practices can and will eventually cultivate that same feeling I'm describing. We can all get it goin if we want it. But not without some effort.

Caught an eyefull of the sun headin down last night. It was a beautiful post float walk from @thefloatcentre. The float was very busy and it took a long time before my mind played itself out and was still. But none the less, regardless of what takes place in the tank, I always feel lighter and better off afterword everytime. Peace folks! 😄 #sunset #halifax #float #floatanks #thefloatationcentre #eastcoast #atlanticcanada #canada #novascotia #dusk #sun #redhotfire (at Halifax, Nova Scotia)

Just twooo brothers. Its just called two brothers!! 😂 Had a killer weekend a while back with these two, runnin around an chasin after waterfalls. Cant really put into words the absolute necessity of being out in nature as often as possible. Our true home. Where we all came from. The games we play as humans hold no water out there. These waterfalls will still be raging years after we are gone. #rickandmorty #twobrothers #nature #coast #novascotia #eastcoast #canada #canadianwilderness (at Parrsboro, Nova Scotia)

Was lucky enough to catch this sunrise on the way to work earlier in the week. Everyday the sun shows up ready to shine its brightest. We could learn a thing or two from that. The sun shines just as bright regardless of if anyone is looking. Peace! #Halifax #lake #nature #sunrise #maritime #eastcoast #novascotia #canada #earlymorning #dawn (at Halifax, Nova Scotia)
