The Soul-Centric Assembly
Being with it All. All At Once. Together.
The Soul-Centric Assembly is a conscious collective for the Age of Overwhelm.
Email Mattie@TheLostWildness.com to be put on the registration list for 2021.
The problem is THAT there’s too much going on all at once.
We’ve got stuff to sort out *in* our head, in our body, in our soul. Then there’s all the stuff *out* there - family, city, nation, and planet.
We’re hungry for connection and then get a connection hangover.
We want to be the change but we think that we’re too smart to get help when we’re tired and overwhelmed.
We want to do something but we get paralyzed at the starting line or the water table for all. the. reasons...
The solution?
> More conscious integration and co-creative intention. This means deciding to make space to integrate, in the Age of Overwhelm. This means to set intentions with the collaboration and accountability of others. A continuous re-centering. Lost and Found. Broken and Whole. Alive, Wild and Whole.
> Submitting and surrendering more to our soul-centric guidance. (AKA the place where our hearts, minds, and gut meet. That place of balanced belongingess at our soul-centric greet.)
> Remagnetizing our compass with a less-biased third-party perspective from an expert with thousands of hours and dollars of education and training (that’s me!) and some new friends.
> Practicing togetherness and leaning on one another. Ya know, 1+1 is greater than 2 type stuff.
> Refreshed and reconditioned ways in which we communicate. That includes communicating within ourselves and with the world, in thoughts, written word and speech.
“The ultimate lesson is that there is no immunity, no matter our age or the size of our retirement account, from going through constant cycles of integration and disintegration in which we are humbled and hopefully set to rights with the world again.”
-David Whyte, POET
The solution is not continuing to tell yourself BUT I’M SMART. I’M SANE. I SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIGURE THIS OUT ON MY OWN. I’M SELF-RELIANT, SUPER INDEPENDENT, SELF-SUFFICIENT.
Yeah, that’s part of the problem, folks. This hyper-individualistic thing.
The solution is not continuing the pattern of BUT IF I JUST KEEP DOUBLING DOWN IN THIS DIRECTION, WITH THE SAME APPROACH, IT’S GOT TO WORK EVENTUALLY. SAME MANTRAS. SAME ACTIVITIES. SAME ENERGY.
The solution IS soul-centric support and education addressing and integrating all of the parts of being human. The physical, emotional, intellectual and spiritual…and integrating all of them at the center, the soul-centric solution.
Come and vibe with me and other committed adults and feed off the fruits of my and our collective eclectic rebelliousness. My desire-to-encourage you awaits.
“Effective leaders must be truth seekers, and that requires a willingness to understand truths other than our own.”

Still thinking you want to go it alone?
Well, what if you could reach increased wellness, self-assuredness and soulful centeredness more swiftly and with more ease, delight, grace, beauty and depth?
To do that, you have to find all of what you need –– the resources. Your people. Your guide. This takes practice and a continuous renewal.
Find your balance. Find your integration. Find your lost aliveness. Your lost creative. Your lost cadence. Your lost rebellion. Your lost inner child. Your lost inner adult. Your lost artist. All the lost archetypes.
Your lost wildness awaits. Can you feel something resonating in your body?

Here’s how it works:
This is primarily a group and secondarily a course. The idea is to find, gather, polish, synthesize and integrate the fragments. Again and again. In community. There will be weekly 5-10min videos to have a lens to work with (and learn from!) and at the end of our Initiatory Session, you’ll have your lens for how to make the group yours. I will offer tools. Before that initiatory session, you’ll complete the Aliveness Audit which will give a baseline, a marker, a check-in on all the parts. You’ve got to assess your baseline, do a little engine check before we upgrade, recondition and start the refurbishing.
“All sorts of things can happen when you’re open to new ideas and playing around with things.”
-STEPHANIE KWOLEK, CHEMIST
So a little more about that Intiatory Session, the one-on-one chit-chat, the marking of your threshold. The beginning. Our shared starting line. The marking of your current place, with its present problems and confident convictions, is powerful. Intentionally deciding to ceremoniously cross the threshold matters in the process. Humans like ritual and making material the conceptual evolution in our head.
Community, tools, soul-centric philosophy and accountability
Once you’re in, you’ll have access to:
*Aliveness Audit - A questionnaire that in itself feeds the neuroscientific-spiritual need to reflect and get whole.
*75min One-On-One Session during the last couple weeks of January
*Weekly recorded Facebook videos designed to address all of the parts adaptive to the groups’ needs. Being regularly in touch with what’s missing and what’s bloated, with community support, keeps us balanced. When you’re feeling out of sorts, you might be focusing too little or too much in one of these areas….
Week 1: Physical (Includes embodiment, sensuality, sexuality, how we feel physically on the outside and inside. Environment. Sure, diet and exercise too.)
Week 2: Emotional (Doing the work. Self-examination. Deconditioning. Analyzing. Reflecting. Why? Digging deep...in the dark of our shame, wounds, fears, biases and triggers. Therapy. Ancestral Healing. Self-Acceptance.)
Week 3: Intellectual & Serving Others (This is where our minds are our masters and we do things. We plan. We budget. We create. Things. We serve. We focus rationally. We educate ourselves. We act courageously, as activists. We get shit done. We pay the bills.)
Week 4: Spiritual (Being in touch with our human capacity and need to transcend the pain, suffering and difficulty of day-to-day human living. Be with one another. Compassionate. Grateful. Karma. Vibrational Alignment. Oneness.)
*Added new tools monthly like “Principles of Integration, Principles of Change, Principles of Ritual, Experiences in Deepening Aliveness, Emotional Balance Tools” and much more.”
*Monthly Intention Prompts
*Weekly Q&A with live coaching
*Discounted one-on-one coaching
“Life's journey - it unfolds for you as you are ready for it.”

In The Soul-Centric Assembly, you will learn:
How to address your life without all the furrowed-brow about not doing enough, not being enough, belonging enough or being balanced enough. You’ll grow into the idea that giving and receiving can be done in proper proportion, without draining all that makes you you. Together, we look for balance. Integration. Playfulness. We find the expressive joy to be had in the very air we breathe. We earn and conjure that lost wild child magnetism. That edge. Your gift. Your purpose.

$288 for the first month includes:
The Aliveness Audit, Initiatory 75min coaching session where we get specific about what this is about for you specifically (whether it’s general resilience & balance, settling into a new phase, place, partnership, project, purpose, position or general joyous up-leveling, grief releasing or another desire/want/need/wish)
and then $33/month after that
Yeah - that’s less than a dollar a day for a place to get your grounding and soul-centric balance. I recommend you stay in it for a year, or at least a season, but you’re not trapped in if it’s not working for you.
