Finding Harmony Podcast

The truly bizarre thing about living in an intentional ‘spiritually aspirant’ community (for decades) is that you share profound memories with a select group of folks who you know only incidentally.  Yet, those shared memories are quite intense and emotional for both of you.

You can imagine a professional athlete might feel the same or a developer in Silicon Valley.  You watch from afar sometimes as friends you’ve known for 20 or 30 years develop “Google” or win an NBA championship; and yet, understand exactly what they are going through.

With our guest today Nea Ferrier, Harmony and Russell also share this very personal history. For example, it came out that Nea had stayed in Russell’s apartment in Taiwan for a weekend and they had climbed a sacred Buddhist mountain together, prostrating each length of the journey. Russell had only a dim memory of this event, but remembered it in color as Nea described it.

Accessing the deepest, most personal parts of herself, and bringing them into the light is at the heart of Nea’s practice.

Like Bhuvaneshwari, the great cosmic mother of the universe, who represents space and who creates space for all things. Nea herself, has become a cosmic womb. She creates space within her own consciousness for beautiful experiences to grow and flourish, and is focused on giving birth to her very own divine nature.

This goddess become her guide in the creation of Nilaya House and through her metaphysical womb she embraced her role as a mother to many.

Listening to Nea now, you’ll be fascinated to hear she was once a wild child. In early adult life, she came face to face with some pretty self-destructive tendencies, which brought her to the practice of yoga. Over the years, she has deepened her connection to the goddess energy and intimately observe how the female cycle can become profoundly transformative, not only to one’s practice, but to one’s whole personality.
