Play Your Practices

28 Day PlayGroup Includes First Harvest Cross-Quarter Seasonal Circle

You are invited, Beloved, to nourish deeply and rest into Infinite’s arms

28 Day PlayGroup: Rest into Infinite’s Arms … Give yourself the gift of self-nurturance as you integrate, deepen, and open to the next evolutionary arc that awaits you…as you rest into Infinite’s arms.

Putting my practices as a central focus, while really committing to being, doing, and tracking these, has been the source of an extraordinary shift in my being over the past few years. (As I consider, it’s been a far longer process than just the time I’ve tracked these practices …)

I want you to experience a similar burst of unfolding, emergence, and organic evolution! Because what this focus on my practices has brought into my life is a regular and ongoing connection to, an ability to relax into, and rest in, the arms of the Infinite.

17 July 2021 — First Quarter Moon

Beloved,
We are the creatress-co-creators we have been waiting for. We are the imaginal cells gathering to co-create the butterfly’s wings of a new reality. We are this, walking evolution’s arc.

Our practices become the lift, the wind under the (butterfly) wings of a flourishing new reality to lift off. It may seem counter-intuitive, but co-creation in this time starts from within each of us and ripples outward.

Gathering and sharing a play-field of intent over 28 days, anchoring the beginning and (almost) end of the 28 days via Zoom gathering, plus celebrating together the cross-quarter day, Lughnasadh, amplifies the ripples that emanate beyond us.

How often do we deepen into what we “know” to do, but don’t always manage to do?

This is what I call … #PracticeYourPractices … And now, #PlayYourPractices, since it’s time to lighten up! We each carry unique medicines or what one teacher calls your “Song of Self,” so each one’s practices will be different.

However …

By gathering, committing and devoting ourselves, and practicing together, we become a personal and community magnified field, one that emerges from each of us, from our collaborative co-creation circle, and out into the world. (It’s the source of new reality co-creation.)

What if … together … we could immerse in a field of support, gentle and accessible, in our own perfect timing, yet have touch-ins of community and invisible, invincible ongoing support for a span of eternal Now (in this case, for 28 days) under the blessing cycle of Mother Moon?

Why Me, Why Now:
Things unfurled for me differently these past couple of years by putting my Self and my personal practices into the center of the spiral “map” of life and work — while trusting and allowing the organic growth (and Infinite Intent) to “work me” and “work with me.”

What has become a regular occurrence:
Resting in the arms of the Infinite is becoming an embodied experience for me. I’ve not yet achieved this “always,” but I do feel it regularly almost every day, even if it’s not every moment of every day. 😉

I want to share with you the pure potentialities that can unfold when you lean into your practices, and experience them within this shared field of hope and blessings, our PlayGroup community.

Call such an experience connected support, transcendent being or intuitive knowing state — whatever it might be to you …

  • Would you like more of this?
  • Would you like a space to practice, amplify, refine, upgrade your practices?
  • Would you benefit from the strengthened inner connection that results?
  • Would you so love to experience an embodied sense of resting in Infinite’s arms?

What if …
Listening to /for /with your inner guidance, being with it, paying attention to it … what if THIS is what all those daily practices are “about?”  And then those practices become the “lift” to this outer emergence of co-creation?
(Hint: there’s a bigger picture to the “practices” that sometimes gets forgotten.)

What if … 
it doesn’t make a difference what your “practices” are? 
… and yet your personal practices can be refined or refreshed as YOU grow, develop, and become more of who you are, expressing more of that Essence of You, what I and one of my teachers sometimes call “expressing your Song of Self.”

In my experience, I’ve become convinced there are multiple paths “up the mountain” of awareness, increased consciousness, mindfulness, reverence, wonder, awe, oneness, transcendence, evolution, the emerging future, or whatever name you give it … And yet doing these practices, sparked by inspiration, and gathering together within community, amplifies the personal, circle, and results to the whole in ways beyond our reckoning.

While I will share my practices and perspectives about them in a PDF “menu” that’s included in this 28-day PlayGroup, it’s not about the particulars of what I do. I offer these as inspiration. 


Rather, this is a space for you to practice, refine, upgrade, fill your own well, and see where you land right now within your unique template of “practices.” Is it time for an upgrade? Are you in a “clean slate” place —
starting at a zero point?

How does this 28-Day PlayGroup Work? +
What might you experience?

In an experimental engagement between July 23-August 19, I am inviting you to play in this field, to #PracticeYourPractices and #PlayYourPractices, to explore, inquire, and then note down what you notice, observing what shifts by engaging within this alchemical chamber.

There will also be opportunities to ask questions, share practices, report on any results and refinements/upgrades via a private Facebook group.

28 Day PlayGroup: Rest into Infinite’s Arms  — from 23 July – 19 August — also encompasses Lughnasadh, the early August cross-quarter day of “first harvest.”

Each day over the next month, you will receive a boost of the “practical mystic” for growing and replenishing your Self from deep within.
Daily email missives may include one of the following:
* Audio centering/grounding meditation
* Audio visualization journey with prompts
* Divination card or rune reading, drawn with the intent to serve individuals within the whole
* Inspired image with message
* Trends and tidbits from archetypal influences, including moon & astrology wisdom
* Possibilities for refreshing or evolving your own daily practices
* Playing Lightning Dreamwork with dream incubation suggestions
(And know that all these love-missives will be archived and available to you, in your most perfect timing…)

Getting Together in our collaborative Co-Creation PlayGroup Community:
We will gather in the circle together. Recording will be available if these days/times are not optimal for you. Also recommended for re-listening and re-connecting with the energies and frequencies of our group, as well as with the shared centering.

NOON Mountain Daylight Time on …

* Saturday 24 July — Opening gathering to invoke and evoke our sacred space, honor our intent, and set out together

* Saturday 7 August  — Lughnasadh
Cross-quarter day in the wheel of the year, halfway between the summer solstice and the autumn equinox
This is included in the seasonal circle series and offers journeys and “sacred journaling” to become aware of your “first harvest.” What are you harvesting now? What seeds are you planting for your next harvest?)
This session will be available and open also to those not on this 28 day journey.

* Sunday, 15 August — We  gather to honor and bless our journey — no matter where we are with “completion,” since there isn’t really a finish line. Rather, we explore at this juncture the fluidity of time, of gathering, and of possibilities and activities that open the next portal, next evolution, next iteration as we stand at the liminal edge of the emerging future.

In the background: Belvaspata

The modality and field of radiant angelic wholeness, Belvaspata, received and expressed through the Seer Almine, is a daily practice for me. All those in the circle are held in this field of radiance for our time together — and beyond. I will hold at least three sessions of Belvaspata of the Song of the Self during the course of our 28 days.  (These are done asynchronously and offline, so there’s nothing you need to do but receive; no event you need to “show up for.”)

In addition to this, I do a Belvaspata daily maintenance practice each day, encompassing those in the circle during our time together and for an additional 6 months of support. (Think: Wind under your wings.)

Plus:
The newly updated #PlayYourPractices Menu, a brief PDF where I share the backstory about my practices, how I think about practices by day, week, month,  plus space to develop your own template/menu that feeds, nourishes, and sustains you at your most optimal.

These are 28 days to self-nourish and engage with doing what you know to do … but don’t always manage to do … in sacred and intimate community, infused with self-compassion and enlivened through a powerful field of shared intent.

… All so that we can let go and rest into the arms of the Infinite. And this, even as we, together, co-create a new reality where all life flourishes.

(It’s a both-and, my friends.)


With infinite flows of compassion, love, and appreciation,

Bobbye

P.S. If this sounds delicious, please know that it’s a unique flavor, what a friend has dubbed “Bobbyelicious.”

This 28 Day PlayGroup: Rest into Infinite’s Arms is an experiment, and encompasses the seasonal circle Lughnasadh. This registration link includes the 28 day PlayGroup, as described above.

About Bobbye

Bobbye Middendorf, MA, is an Inner Wisdom Guide, Dream Mentor, Spoken Word Alchemist, & Yin Arising Catalyst. Her work invites Evolutionaries, WayMakers, and Visionaries into sacred spaces for co-birthing new realities. She dances this evolutionary arc into manifestation with Conscious Creators, Change Catalysts, and Dreamers as dreamer-mystic-poet-healer-collagist. Her synergistic process-work alchemizes what is in the way, so the radiant beings in her community can BE home-for-self. With that, new potentialities emerge, and each radiant Song of Self comes through in fullest expression. Together we are the imaginal cells gathering, co-creating new realities where all life flourishes.

Praise

Bobbye “… has an unusual ability to hold space by carefully tending to the creation of a safe and deep container, through the patience and holding of her deep listening and through her caring wisdom. The result is that one sees oneself and one’s situation more clearly, more fully, and with more compassion.”

“Your beautiful words and centering took me beyond words.”

NFS, Hudson River Valley, NY

“If you had asked me, I would have told you that I am absolutely not coachable (a character flaw, I always thought). I also didn’t know how to dream. Working with Bobbye is unlike anything I’ve experienced before. First there are the Aha! moments, which happen pretty much all the time. While I am still immersed in her warm and supporting energy they feel breathtaking and deeply personal. Then, a couple of days later that same epiphany has already become so much a part of my new reality that I am not sure if anything had really happened. Wasn’t this always a part of me? And then one day after many of these times when nothing much seemed to have happened, I look around and realize that my entire life, my perspective, my set of tools for coping and growing and co-creating, are not at all the same anymore, that they are changed to a degree I wouldn’t have known to even ask for. I am changed and my environment around me has been changed as a result. Dreaming and creating The Impossible Dream is becoming part of my every day. The incredible thing is that she never tells you what or how to do or think. Not ever. She somehow guides you to that place deep inside you where your own personal answers are. Bobbye with her golden voice, brilliant inner guidance and powerful “tool satchel” is indeed making the world a better place. Bobbye, I don’t have the words to sufficiently express my awe and my gratitude.”

LED, CA

The experience with Bobbye “… brought new light to something that has stymied me for decades! After I shared what I could articulate about the focus of my query, you offered one reflection that gave me an entirely different way to explore this blindspot that had frustrated me for so long.”

…your practice of being in the presence of energetic forces, trusting them, learning from them, communing with them, sharing them, continues to teach and inspire me… Your unique example continues to invite me to trust and to acknowledge the many layers of growth that continue to evolve in my being…”

–D.M., NM

“…your presentation really stood out for me. Because yours was unique in guiding through an inner experience… even in a limited amount of time you created a spacious and deep experience that was truly beautiful.”

How to Be in the Soup of Chaos and Know You Are in the Right Place —

Welcome to the new Heart of Creation where:
*All is new and forming and malleable.
*All is possible.
*There is nothing wrong with you.

The New Heart of Creation

Many are observing and speaking out about the shifts of energies on the planet as we come to the end of the cosmic age. People see things breaking down, deadlocks, impasses in the old models and paradigms, the powers-that-be fighting a vicious fight for survival, deep disappointment in the institutions that purport to serve us and instead are serving only themselves. This is looking at the half empty glass.

Consider…

Meantime on the other side of the matrix, millions of lightworkers, members of the Turquoise Tribe, self-growth experts, are busy creating anew.  We are the ones seeing and building on possibilities and potentialities. WE are the people bringing forth new stories, birthing new ways of working and playing together, renewing and rediscovering the richness of ancient paths of wisdom, community, contribution, and grace.

New paths, many diverse yet congruent paths, are opening their way up and up the mountainside. From the shared “everyday,” we are scaling these peaks together and in new ways, many lamps lit along many pathways. All together, we are illuminating the way — FOR EACH OTHER.

Here from within the heart of creation, ask yourself this question: What if you didn’t have to “attract” anything?   Nothing.  At.  All. Why? Because with your deep and conscious Presence, (and the confidence to stand firmly grounded IN that Presence) the very act of waking up means that it’s all right there at your fingertips.

It’s not about “Attracting” anymore. It’s about waking up and Allowing. Yes, the new, improved LOA is The Law of Allowing.  It’s a matter of unlocking and opening the door, of shining your light of welcome, and inviting in the most perfect relationships for whatever is next for you.  From the place of conscious awakening, you’ll realize that even the door itself is an illusion.

That takes trust. And when you are in the cocoon, perhaps even still liquefying, how can you see clearly?

What is the message of transformation from within the chrysalis?
Deep within, from the heart of the imaginal cells, the seed and blueprint of the butterfly lives in perfection. Even when the caterpillar is breaking down inside its protective chrysalis, the message of the existence of butterfly lives pure and true, even in the soup of seeming chaos.

From this invisible world, inside the butterfly blueprint, what comes forth at the most perfect time IS the butterfly — breaking free, stretching and exercising its wings, as it emerges into the physical, manifest world.

Many of us, and I include myself here, feel like we are in a soup of chaos and transformation — and that is on our good days.  What if that is true? How do we move forward together, trust the unfolding, especially when that seems completely of new cloth, a new paradigm?

For millenia, the Feminine Spirit has been abducted, spirited away from the public conversation. Patriarchy has been running the show. Now She — The Divine Feminine Spirit in Business, Healing, and the Heart of Creation — is back in this planetary eleventh hour.

The Feminine Spirit in Business holds the blueprints for paradigm-changing awakenings in how we structure work, contribution, service, and bringing the divine and gifts to the clear channels for exchange.  It’s resolutely NOT going to look like what came before.

Welcome, Co-creators with the Divine Feminine Spirit in Business. We are in the soup of Transformation, and something new and brilliant is in the process of being born: The birthing of each one of us and all together “Owning Our Greatness.”

It starts with going inside first, going deep first. It starts with listening to the yearning and longing and allowing what is deeply true to emerge onto the page in your own words.

Your first step in practical creation is making a safe space for your young inner parts to speak their truth to you — without your judging-self stopping the flow.  Your emergence is longing for you to be present!

I’ve been called a “vision midwife.” Partnering with the Feminine Spirit in Business means co-creating from a planetary and cosmic space that has never before been accessible. Recently I received a direct message from the Divine Feminine Spirit in Business and asking me to share. “Language is key to manifesting,” she said, “and it’s one of the primary limitations for those bringing their vision into form.” That’s where I support women visionaries and co-create safe spaces for growth and expression inn partnership with the Feminine Spirit in Business.

All our rich contributions and gifts are so needed at this crucial time — especially the hidden and secret messages! So step into the circle and become one of the Conscious Co-Creators. For that, you may indeed want to consciously “Own Your Greatness.”  There’s a proven path to follow to strengthen yourself as you emerge from your cocoon.

For your own personal access to a no-charge “Safe Space” Playbook/workbook for “Owning Your Greatness,” for downloading your yearnings and really listening to your own inner messages, please sign up at the top of the right-hand column!  Just enter your name and email at the top of the sidebar on the right side of the page.

You’ll receive a link to download your personal guide to owning your greatness — in words. You’ll receive uncommon support in emerging from your own chrysalis as the beautiful butterfly that you are!
