Hi, this is Hans-Eirik Hanifl for E-Commerce Gorilla and in this video, we're going to
be discussing ransomware and what you need to know about it.
So what is ransomware?
It's a term used to describe a growing group of malware scripts, which deny you access
to your computer or system by encrypting the data held there.
The malware then holds the key to decrypt that data hostage until a ransom is paid,
either in cash or crypto-currency, such as bitcoin.
Generally these scripts, once locking you out of the system, threaten to delete the
data or permanently prevent access to the data if the ransom is unpaid in a short period
of time.
Once the computer is infected, ransomware will generally try to infect other systems
on the same network.
Ransomware has been around for well over a decade, but it was mainly limited to Europe.
However, in the last couple of years, it has been making itself prevalent in the United
States.
There are dozens of distinct variations of ransomware, but some of the most prevalent
in the U.S. have been CryptoWall, TeslaCrypt, and Locky.
While most ransomware targets Windows systems and specific server types, there are also
ransomware variants for Android, iOS and Linux.
Although there is a large range in ransom demands, the average is between three hundred
and a thousand dollars.
This amount is generally selected because it's an easy amount for most individuals
to pay, or businesses.
But, there has been specific institutions that have been targeted in the millions.
In our next video, we are going to be going over how you, as an individual or business
owner, can avoid being infected by ransomware.
Then, in the last video, we'll be covering what to do if you do get infected.
Thank you for watching.
Please make sure you subscribe to the channel and if you liked this video, give us a thumbs
up.
This is Hans-Eirik Hanifl for E-Commerce Gorilla and we'll see you next time.

Best & Worst Nintendo Switch Games So Far | All 28 new Switch games - Duration: 15:35.
28 games have already been released on the new Nintendo Switch.
11 of these games have received PlayScores.
But first, let's take a look at 17 titles that haven't received a PlayScore yet.
Here they are arranged from A to Z.
Play as 16 brave fighters across the pages of history, and fight for the greatest honor.
This Switch version gives it more traditional fighting mechanics to make for an enjoyable
arcade fighting experience.
ACA NEOGEO Metal Slug 3.
The arcade run-and-gun shooter heads for the Switch with challenge modes, control options,
and online leaderboards.
Defeat the monsters that stand in your way and stop General Morden in pixel visuals that
stood the test of time.
ACA NEOGEO Nam-1975.
Another SNK action game.
Dive into the battlefields of vietnam as the one US Special Forces.
Brave the elements and survive the fierce gunfires with evasive rolls, and helpful powerups.
ACA NEOGEO Shock Troopers.
Sticking with the formula that Commando created, this top-down run-and-gun shooter will let
you face off enemies as a suave Lonely Wolf, or as an alternating trio of soldiers.
It's not an original premise, but it's an enjoyable co-op shooter for the Switch.
ACA NeoGeo: The King of Fighters '94.
You've seen the King of Fighters in 3D, and now you can enjoy them in their original
forms.
It's the debut of one the fighting franchises that defined a generation.
With its straightforward mechanics, determine the pros from amateurs.
ACA NEOGEO THE KING OF FIGHTERS '98.
The definitive King of Fighters title among SNK's iconic fighting franchise.
Jump into the ring with the three characters of your choice and eliminate each of your
opponents.
With expansive roster and refined combat, it's the King of Fighters at its finest.
ACA NEOGEO NEO Turf Masters.
Twist and turn until you get that perfect stance, and make sure to check the wind.
Choose from six eagle eyed golfers from around the world and aim for that elusive hole-in-one.
Play with a friend, or compete with players online.
ACA NEOGEO Waku Waku 7.
Among Neo Geo's fighting titles, this one stands out.
Sunsoft takes a slightly different approach to the genre with its vibrant yet limited
cast of characters and upbeat gameplay.
Gather the remaining waku waku balls and gain the highest scores!
Has-Been Heroes.
Fulfilling their King's final request, a band of once great heroes work together to
embark on their final grueling adventure: taking the beloved Princess to Princess school.
A deceptively charming enough premise that's topped with frustrating permadeath.
Little Inferno.
In this game, fighting fire with fire is the only way to go.
It's a pyromaniac's dream.
With little to no gameplay, just burn things down.
Pick up coins from the ashes of your burnt furniture, buy more stuff, and just burn them
all again.
New Frontier Days.
In this town-building sim, live out the days of the American Frontier and help the villagers
settle into their new town.
There's plenty of dangers that await, so build your town wisely to live another day.
Othello.
A less dramatic battle of light and dark, and definitely not the Shakespearean tragedy.
It's a boardgame classic where you convert your opponent's tiles into your own color.
Reach the edges first and make sure to secure those corners!
Snake Pass.
Think like a snake to traverse the obstacles in this colorful platformer.
With its impressive snake physics, curl around poles and slither onto rocks along with your
trusty avian sidekick.
Ressstore the city of Haven Tor to its glorious state!
The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+.
Use your cowardly tears to eliminate nightmarish monsters in randomly generated dungeons and
rooms.
In a quest to escape death by his mother's hands, Isaac will have to face his inner demons.
Help him gather the courage and strength go face to face with his deadly fate.
VOEZ.
An elegant looking rhythm game that showcases the Switch's touch-screen capabilities.
Touch the falling notes as they reach the hitbar, and help the six high school students
achieve their dreams of international fame.
Vroom in the Night Sky.
One of the first indies to launch on the Switch.
Released in Japan, get on a magical bike and sail across the night skies.
Gather stardust as the magical girl Luna, collect keystars, and open a magical Gate.
That's a lot of magic!
World of Goo.
Control a village of goos and create gooey architecture to solve the different puzzles.
Construct platforms, bridges, and high-rises to transport other goos, or let its gigantic
citizens to pass through.
Like most Tomorrow Corporation games, it's deceptively simple.
A little creativity won't hurt.
11 Nintendo Switch games have just received their PlayScore.
The PlayScore is a unique rating that averages critic reviews and gamer reviews.
Here they are arranged from the lowest to highest.
Opening our list of Switch titles is Nintendo's very own 1-2-Switch
This collection of odd games is meant to showcase the Switch's technologically advanced Joy-Controllers.
With its motion controls, and haptic feedback mechanic called the HD rumble, you can take
on a variety of challenges using reflexes and sheer skill.
Compete in tennis matches, milking competitions, wild west duels and more.
They're a fun set of party games for all ages...at least for a little while.
While it shows off its impeccable technology, there's really not much to do.
For every minute you wiggle and waggle through its mini-games, you'll have to wait through
each of its long tutorials.
And, with no single player option and a focus on social interaction, it's probably gonna
keep gathering dust unless you have parties every week...if only they bundled it with
the Switch.
It has a PlayScore of 5.74.
9.
Just Dance 2017
Ubisoft ushered in its infectious dancing craze to the newest platform on the block.
Using Switch's motion controls, dance to rhythm and make sure to keep up with the beats.
Copy your virtual dance instructor's moves to earn points and probably a few laughs from
your friends.
Like many of the Switch's titles, this game is more fun when you have friends to enjoy
it with.
Or you could play it alone as your cardio substitute.
Swing your honest pelvises to Shakira's Hips Don't Lie, and flail your arms to Queen's
Bohemian Rhapsody.
It doesn't always work though.
With the JoyCon only tracking one hand, scoring can be inaccurate and sometimes a little too
patronizing.
It pales in comparison to the Xbox One version that scans your whole body.
Plus it hides many of their songs under the premium Just Dance Unlimited.
That's a high price to pay for a portable party game.
It has a PlayScore of 6.69.
8.
Super Bomberman R
One of the best multiplayer franchises made its way to the Switch, but it didn't really
impress players quite as the classics did.
It stayed true to the familiar mechanics, placing bombs on the screen, collecting powerups
from destroyed bricks, and eliminating opponents.
Play with up to eight of your friends, and relive the tense battles and sweet victories.
Everything is in a fresh 3D look, making its maps look more dazzling and explosions much
more satisfying.
This Switch version also adds a fun story mode to solve puzzles and take on ferocious
bosses.
Using its co-op mode, your friends can jump in anytime to lend you that needed helping
hand.
But, despite all its good points, it's an underwhelming package, especially considering
its expensive pricetag.
With only eight multiplayer maps, and a forgettable story mode, it receives a PlayScore of 6.77.
7.
Skylanders: Imaginators
The toy-to-life franchise has done almost everything, adding in new features to their
games every step of the way.
Now, things are beginning to look even better for Skyland citizens with their recent move
to the Nintendo's newest console.
Save Skyland anew as Kaos discovers the power of Mind Magic, creating an army of evil villains
called Doomlanders.
Defeat them using the deep recesses of your imaginations.
Create your very own hero and customize clothes, catchphrases, and powers to your heart's
content.
And, with the Switch's new functionalities, you won't need to lug around your whole
collection every time.
You can take out heroes from your digital library at anytime.
Access it from the comfort of your own home, or change it up on the move.
Evil never sleeps, and with the Switch's portability, saving Skyland will be a button
away.
It has a PlayScore of 7.07.
6.
I Am Setsuna
The makers of I Am Setsuna sought to create a quintessential JRPG that's reminiscent
of golden era titles like Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy.
Walk along the endless winters with Endir, a mercenary sent to assassinate the titular
Setsuna.
Protect yourselves from the demons that haunt the land, and complete the maiden sacrifice.
It succeeds in bringing in the nostalgia for the RPGs of old, but it doesn't do much
other than that.
As demons haunt Setsuna's land, the game itself is haunted by one-dimensional characters,
predictable storylines, and all-too-easy monster encounters.
What it lacks in story and challenge, however, is quietly alleviated by formidable bosses,
captivating soundtracks, and lush graphics that almost matches the PS4.
So, if all you want is a classic JRPG experience, then this game is worth a look with a PlayScore
of 7.32.
5.
Snipperclips - Cut It Out Together
Developed especially for the Switch, this cute puzzle game proves that two heads, or
four, is definitely better than one.
Play as Snip and Clip, two adorable paper cut outs who need to work together to solve
the puzzles in every stage.
Crouch, spin, and cut-out overlapping parts.
In its many stages, you'll have to fit the desired shapes, shoot balls into their respective
hoops, and transport fireflies to their cages.
And it only gets harder from there.
There's no one way to complete the missions, so you'll have to think of creative ways
to solve them, which only adds excitement to the game.
Get more players into the mix, and explore all the different modes.
Solve even more puzzles in Party Mode, or compete for the highest scores in Blitz Mode.
While it's a pretty short game, it's still a cut above the rest with a PlayScore of 7.64.
4.
Fast RMX
If you need a game to fill that F-Zero shaped void in your heart, then there's no other
game to do it than Shin'en Multimedia's anti-gravity racer.
Unless a new F-Zero comes out, but that doesn't seem likely.
This indie title will take you back to your favorite podracing games without forgetting
to put its own signature style.
Wtih your hovercraft, dash through its array of tracks, collecting orbs to fill up your
boost bar.
There's a knack to the game as you master the map, navigate corners, and decide at which
points to use the boost strips to your advantage.
It's a mechanic unique to the game that tests your reflexes amidst the breakneck speeds.
It's a delightfully straightforward racing game, with no story modes to distract you
from the high-octane racing.
What it has though is its expansive collection tracks and racing modes, stunning landscapes,
and smooth resolutions.
It has a PlayScore of 7.7.
3.
Blaster Master Zero
One of NES' iconic rosters, Blaster Master gets a well-deserved remake from Inti Creates.
It's what most people have called a remake done right, keeping the charm of its pixel
visuals and awesome gameplay, while adding a few modern additions.
It even manages to keep some aspects of the original American storyline, with some needed
tweaks.
In pursuit of his frog, Jason is joined by Eve as he takes to subterranean lands and
mows down alien creatures with his newfound tank.
Along with the sidescrolling platformer, you step outside the tank to enter dungeons in
top-down shooting style and eliminate martians with an array of blaster options.
With improved controls, redesigned levels, and new save checkpoints, it's a great introduction
to the series for first-time players, and awesome way for old players to love it again.
It has a PlayScore of 7.79.
2.
Shovel Knight Treasure Trove
He's conquered Kickstarter, and now he's on Nintendo's latest platform.
Yacht Club Games brings their mighty Knight to the Switch in his fullest form.
Packed with all the previous DLC's, as well as the their newest expansion, Specter of
Torment.
With your trusty shovel blade, anything is possible.
And all in the name of love.
Set out on a perilous journey through its pixel-laden 16bit landscapes.
In this sidescrolling platform adventure, go through dark dungeons and creepy castles
along with your loyal companions.
While Shovel Knight deals in digging and Plague Knight has his alchemy, the new Specter Knight
has his own array of abilities like running on walls, and powerful air attacks.
So far, the shovel-wielding knight does not disappoint.
With its cool upgrades, unique abilities, and fully cooperative campaign for double
the fun, it's no wonder it garnered the support of critics and gamers alike.
It has a PlayScore of 8.09 while it's DLC, Specter of Torment, received a PlayScore of
7.89.
And the best Nintendo Switch game so far is, of course, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the
Wild
There's nothing like the feeling of being proven right.
We've waited long for the arrival of Breath of the Wild, and it's safe to say that it
blew everyone away with its highly-interactive environment, unique combat mechanics, and
breathtaking open world.
It's an RPG that doesn't hold your hand in any way.
Roam around the land of Hyrule at your own pace, with no limitations.
No places to unlock, and no hidden corners awaiting a completed quest.
Everything the sun hits and doesn't, is open to you at the very first moment.
Sure, you might get crushed by higher level creatures, but that's what exploration's
all about.
Cut down or climb up trees, cook all sorts of meals with thousands of combinations, experiment
with your runes, and just blow things up.
It's a freedom that rivals the likes of GTA and the Witcher series.
And while it's not without a few arguable flaws, it's outstanding in almost every
way with a PlayScore of 9.32.
Stay tuned for more videos on the new Nintendo Switch.
We'll be publishing a monthly PlayScore update as well as a showcase of all its upcoming
games.

HeatherAsh Amara - Feminism & Divine Feminine - Duration: 3:16.
Today we�re with HeatherAsh Amara and we are going to be talking about Feminism and
the feminine.
HeatherAsh, thank you so much for joining me today.
I would like to hear more about your thoughts on the divine feminine.
The divine feminine is about really honoring the female, the feminine qualities and coming
back into relationship of women as sacred.
Creating that connection again.
So as we talk about the divine feminine, we�re talking about the sacredness of women, the
sacredness also of these qualities of openness, of compassion, of nurturing.
So why is the divine feminine and feminism such as an important thing for us to be looking
at and talking about?
As woman, we�ve often been trained that we are not as important as men and that we
don't have as much value and worth.
And because of that, we've really subjugated ourselves to holding ourselves down.
And we do this to ourselves.
And so what feminism is, it�s saying women and men are equal.
It's not saying women are better than men or that men are bad and women are good.
It's simply saying one thing - men and women are equal.
And that is a concept that everybody could get behind.
So feminism is the simple concept that as women, we need to find our power again and
also honor ourselves as sacred.
Come back in to relationship with ourselves as a divine feminine and honor that we are
equal to men and in connection, in harmony, in support of each other.
That's really interesting because divine feminism is really for everybody then.
Absolutely.
This is not just for women.
It's not just for women and if women step up in a way of recognizing not �you will
see that we�re equal� but if just taking their power back.
Everybody benefits, children benefit, men benefit and of course women benefit as well.
So what we�re looking at is healing society, healing the whole, healing our communities
by bringing the male and female back into balance again as equal.
Thank you HeatherAsh.
Thank you.

DON'T YOU REMEMBER ADELE Live (Captioned) - Duration: 4:03.
When will I see you again?
You left with no goodbye, not a single word was said
No final kiss
to seal anything
Oh I had no idea
of the state we were in
I know I have a fickle heart
and a bitterness
And a wandering eye
and a heaviness in my head
But don't you remember
Don't you remember?
The reason you loved me before
Baby please remember
me once more
When was the last time
that you thought of me?
Or have you completely erased me from your memories?
Cause I often think about
where I went wrong
The more I do
the less I know
But I know I have a fickle heart
and a bitterness
And a wandering eye, and a heaviness in my head
But don't you remember
Don't you remember?
The reason you loved me before
Baby please remember
me once more
Gave you the space so you could breathe
And I kept my distance so you would be free
In hope that you find the missing piece
To bring you back to me
Why don't you remember
Don't you remember?
The reason you loved me before
Baby please remember
That you used to love me
When will I see you again?

HeatherAsh Amara - About Firewalks - Duration: 4:50.
Today we're going to be talking to Heatherash Amara about Firewalks.
HeatherAsh, so firewalking is one of the very cool things that you do.
Would you please tell everybody what is firewalking?
Firewalking is an incredible powerful way to come back into alignment with our true
self and it's the simple process of getting a lot of wood, burning it down and then making
the calls to walk.
It sound simple, but there's a whole technique that goes into it and I was trained to be
a firewalk instructor over 25 years ago, and the first firewalk that I ever did completely
shifted my reality because, and it wasn't just the firewalk, the firewalk itself is
incredible so we've gone through a whole workshop and I'm standing in a circle with about 40
women and it's raining, and there's bright red coals and all of a sudden my body was
like "I can do this".
And my mind saying "What?" but I knew without a doubt that I could do it and that was one
of the first times I really started to understand that while our mind might think it knows what's
happening, the truth is our body has incredible wisdom.
And I walked many times that night and then afterwards, I left my keys in my car and there's
all this magic happened around how we got the keys and freed the car basically in the
middle of the night.
And as that was happening I found myself in a state of joy and feeling like "Oh!
Here's an obstacle.
Okay, we'll just figure out how to get this obstacle figured out."
It wasn't a big deal.
And before I would have really suffered and struggled.
And so I recognized that at that time "Oh!
This firewalk thing isn't just about the actual walking on fire, it's about teaching us that
when an obstacle arises in our life, we can be creative.
We can actually stay in joy as we figure our way through it.
Is that the point where it really came to you that you wanted to be a firewalk instructor
and to teach other people how to be firewalk instructors as well?
Yeah!
About a year, nah!
It was actually a month after my first firewalk.
I got a notice in the mail saying "We're doing firewalk instructor training."
And my whole body said "Yes!
Absolutely, I am in!"
And my mind was like "What are you talking about?
You can't do this."
And then I looked at it again, "Yes.
I am in." and then I looked at the price and when it was due and I was like, "There is
no way!"
My brain said, "There's no way!"
But I was called.
I felt so impassioned around doing it that I ended up selling my computer at the time,
borrowing money from friends and doing the training.
And it was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life.
I've been teaching firewalks ever since then and I now also train firewalk instructors.
and so I'm one of the few certified Sundoor Firewalk Instructor Trainers in the United
States, and that's one of my greatest joys, is teaching people to become leaders and to
use this tool, and fire is the tool, it's about transformation.
So what could be more perfect than using firewalking to support people in changing their lives.
And so this type of a program that you're doing, what's involved in that to be a firewalk
instructor?
The firewalk instructor training is a seven-day process, where we do firewalks every night.
Where we learn the nuts and bolts around firewalking.
So in the beginning, I said, "Oh you just get some wood, burn it down."
It is so much more complicated than that because there's a specific type of wood.
The woods are different in all different parts of the country.
So you'll learn how to do a firewalk in Thailand versus how to do a firewalk in California.
You also learn how to do firewalks when there's snow, when there's wind, when there's rain.
And how to also craft a workshop that inspires people and empowers them to walk on fire.
And then also take that energy into their lives.
Thank you so much HeatherAsh.
Thank you.

How Fit Do You Need to Be - Duration: 1:39.
Victoria Police has a minimum fitness
requirement they expect before people
start of the Academy.
After that, every 12 months people have to
re-qualify in that fitness requirement.
The fitness requirements are,
completing the beeper test to a level of 5.01.
They need to do the Illinois agility test.
There's a grip strength test as well,
and a push-up test.
There's a prone ab-bridge test,
and there's also a 1.3 metre
obstacle people need to get over.
Part of that also incorporates a
100 meter swim that people need to
complete under a certain time as well.
Being fit as a police officer is important,
day-to-day we carry a lot of equipment with us
that we need to be able to do our role
so obviously, the easier it is
for us to carry that equipment,
the easier our job becomes.
You could be standing for long periods of time.
You could be at car accidents,
could be doing traffic direction or
crime scene control.
We could be walking for extended periods of time
if we're out doing say searches,
looking for people,
interacting with the public.
There's always requirements there where
we may be involved in a physical arrest of people
so being able to restrain offenders.
You know, inevitably sometimes too,
we've got people don't want to be arrested by
police and they generally run so
the fitter we are, the better our ability
to be able to do that and do it safely.
It's not necessarily the
number one requirement when you're
joining the police force. There's obviously
a basic fitness standard they expect you
to be at and expect you to maintain.
But certainly in terms of our
day-to-day duties, I think that it
falls back more on your
communication skills and your
ability to be able to relate to people.

How to Prevent a Ransomware Attack - Duration: 3:12.
Hi, this is Hans-Eirik Hanifl for E-Commerce Gorilla and in this, the second part of our
ransomware series, we're going to be discussing what you need to know to avoid ransomware
infections on your system.
We've all heard the saying prevention is the best medicine, and this is absolutely
the case with ransomware.
Infections generally occur through a malicious email attachment or by visiting a malicious
website.
Many times, those malicious websites will come through in phishing emails.
Educating yourself and your employees not to engage with these phishing emails, regardless
of how relevant they might at first appear, will prevent the majority of infections.
Ensuring the high-risk sites, such as those containing adult content are avoided or blocked
also greatly reduces the risk of malware infection.
Browser and anti-virus developers are continually discovering and updating their systems to
combat new malware threats.
What you need to do as the end user is keep these up to date.
Now, unless you have a background in IT, that's probably the end of where you can go from
a technical perspective in regards to preventing infections.
If you're looking for further information or higher-level technical aspects of prevention,
I've included a link to the FBI CIO CISO Ransomware Guide and you can find it in the
description of this video below.
Now that you have the preventative measures taken care of, it's time to prepare for
the possible eventuality of an infection.
This means, establishing a backup plan.
Using services like Google Drive and Dropbox are great ways to remotely store data for
general data recovery.
However, by their nature, these systems continuously synchronize with the stored data, which means,
files being encrypted by malware on the computer will also be encrypted remotely.
To properly secure against data loss due to ransomware attacks, your data should be backed
up to remote drives that are not continuously synced.
These backups should be done daily or weekly depending on your individual needs.
If you are a larger company or have outside sales reps coming in and giving presentations
for meetings that use a computer or projector that you provide in your conference rooms,
ensure that these computers and devices are not networked to the rest of the company.
Just because you take cyber security seriously doesn't mean others do.
In our next video, we'll be reviewing what you need to do if you get infected by ransomware
and how you can recover your data.
Thank you for watching.
Please make sure you subscribe to the channel and if you liked this video give us a thumbs
up.
This is Hans-Eirik Hanifl for E-Commerce Gorilla and we'll see you next time.

HeatherAsh Amara - Toltec & Shamanism - Duration: 7:04.
Hi everybody! Today we are talking to HeatherAsh Amara about Toltec and Shamanism.
Hi HeatherAsh! Hi!
Would you please tell us more about what does the word Toltec mean to you?
Toltecs were a group of people that came together in South and Central Mexico. So, the people
know about the Aztecs and the Mayans. The Toltecs were a group that consciously chose
to explore together and the word Toltec means are the Artist of the Spirit. The most well-known
Toltec teacher we can say is Don Miguel Ruiz, but also lot of people know about the Toltec
through one of the first books that came out around Toltecs Shamanism, which is Carlos
Castaneda and Don Juan and those teachings. There�s many different types of Toltec Shamanism,
but the umbrella of Toltec is really about taking radical responsibility we can say,
for our lives. That we are the artist of our life, that we�re creating our life through
our perceptions. And that by using our awareness, we can begin to transform the old agreements
and beliefs that are causing us to suffer or limit ourselves. And Shamanism is practice
all around the world many, many different cultures. And what a Shaman is, it�s a person
who has the ability to go between the physical realm and the spiritual realm. And they�re
considered bridge people. They travel to the spiritual realm to gather information, to
get healing, to get medicine, and then to bring it back to their community. And I feel
like it's really important for us in modern day world to learn about different Shamanic
techniques and practices because the tools that Shamans use are so very, very important
for us today. So let's go a little bit deeper. And what
I want to ask about is Toltec wisdom. Toltec wisdom is the deep knowing that each
of us has of being artists of our lives. So, really who's the expert on our life is us!
So when we can back to our wisdom, what we�re coming back to is our choice. And I really
think about Toltec wisdom is about getting free. Getting free on the inside. There's
so many beliefs and agreements that we make when we are younger. For example, if you were
in car and you were a little kid and you�re singing really loud and you�re so happy
to be singing the song and your parents says, �Stop singing, stop singing right now!�
You might immediately make an agreement "Oh! I can't sing or I have a bad voice." But maybe
your parent was just trying to figure out where the ambulance was coming from, or they�re
getting a migraine. And even though they kept asking you please keep singing, you created
this agreement. And what you're doing is starting to create a whole reality based on something
that�s not even true. And we do this all the time. And so as adult, if you can imagine
this person, their friends come and say, �You�re 21, it�s your birthday, awesome, were going
to karaoke, your singing first!� What would their reaction be? They�d be like, �No,
I don't sing.� And so what Toltec wisdom teaches us is that using our awareness, we
can begin to explore and get curious about what beliefs might be beholding from the past
that aren�t serving us now. And it doesn�t mean you�re going to remember the exact
situation of like, when I was 4 I made the belief of that I couldn�t sing. You probably
will never remember that particular incident. But you can use your life to see where do
you have reactions, where do you close, where do you go into fear. And then say where's
the belief, what agreement might I be holding. And that then is the beginning of unwinding
that old belief so we can come back to freedom. So we come back to absolute choice rather
than being dictated from our past. Well, that�s really what Shamanism is, when
spiritual grace comes together, that�s using those tools together.
Yes, exactly. And Shamanism is a part of spirituality. It�s a type of spirituality that really
connects us to the earth, to the cycles, to dreaming - all of these things are very important
within Shamanism and also for spiritual growth. And as we use these different tools, as we
learn to capture our own attention, as we learn to begin to what�s called stock, which
is to begin to track where our beliefs and agreement are, then we begin to recognize
who we want to be. And not just think about it but actually start to live it. It�s very
exciting. That's beautiful. And so as a spiritual shamanic
beginner, where would someone start? What would be the Shamanic 101 that you would start
somebody in this kind of a path? I would start someone in very simply starting
to follow the seasons and the moons cycles. So the sun cycles and the moon cycles. And
why that�s important is that it brings us into touch with nature, which is about beginnings
and endings. And we tend to live from �I have to do this, and this, and this, and then
this will happen.� And the truth is everything is about beginnings and endings, and when
we learn to honor all of them, and that�s what Shamans do, Shamans work with the cycles
of nature. They know that sometimes we must honor the end of something and the letting
go process. And that is beauty as much as the beginnings are. So that�s a great place
to start. And another place is to begin to practice visioning and dreaming, to pay more
attention to dreaming, not only to dreaming at night but also dreaming during the day.
The places where you have insights or inspiration, or a sudden knowing. Start to track and listen
to those places of none ordinary reality when you�re more in a dream space and pay attention
to what those are. And often much insight and healing can come from that deep listening.
