Modern Mystic Paddy Fievet, Meditation, Floating and Altered Minds

“The internal dialogue is what grounds people in the daily world. The world is such and such or so and so, only because we talk to ourselves about its being such and such and so and so. The passageway into the world of shamans opens up after the warrior has learned to shut off his internal dialogue.” - Carlos Castaneda, The Wheel of Time: The Shamans of Mexico Their Thoughts About Life Death and the Universe

Opening a door to your inner Mystic does not require Psychotropic enhancement.
Three to try: 1/Meditation, 2/Holotropic Breath work: Stanislav Grof, or 3/Isolation Tank/Room Floating. Tag along with Lisa and Homer Simpson. You get the idea.

Floating helped me recover from whiplash after a car accident last year. Ready to try? Give yourself a couple of sessions to acclimate to the process. Floating KC includes 15 minutes in a massage chair prior to the float (enhancing relaxation) and offers a discount on your first float.


Wendy's Coffeehouse Interview 2/18/18 with Paddy Fievet.

Embrace your inner Mystic. Warning. Be careful what you wish for and extra careful what you pray for. Here's the prayer that turned Paddy's life upside down: "Whatever is standing in the way of me living a spiritual life please fall from me."

No doubt saying it during an intense thunderstorm added extra oomph. In retrospect, Paddy suggests adding "with light, love and ease" to that now road-tested request.

The chaos that ensued encompassed reprioritization and gutting of things that no longer worked with the life journey she mapped out. She says much of that story is related in a previous book, When Life Cried Out.

In the most recent book, The Eagle's View, Paddy charts five steps to modern Mysticism. In sync with the Valentine theme, Love is one of the five steps. Summing up, it's personal, a choice to remain trapped in fear or take the bold steps required to reconnect and unleash that wonderful spark of divinity that lies within.

Paddy is working on another book to share some of the profound experiences she has had since reorienting her life. Out now, The Eagle's View, Five Steps to Modern Mysticism. More info: Link. She writes about the Lighthouse: Edge Magazine
