Growth practices and expanded consciousness
Where ancient wisdom practices meet modern science and new-earth visionaries
Bringing the expansiveness and abundance of manifestation mentality together with the simple wisdom of frugality and multi-purpose thinking.
The shadow side of the recent buzz around intention-setting and manifestation practices is that many can leave us wheel-spinning for years as the teachings are difficult to fully embody and get right, whilst the frugality model can leave people stuck in lack and poverty consciousness, meaning they’ll never contribute to any personal or global shifts in anything other than the tiniest ways.
Looked at through a modern indigenous lens, we explore ways to find the sweet-spot between minimalism, frugalism and abundance thinking. Balancing real-world realities of resource scarcity with expansive spiritual ideas of abundance, to create a grounded realistic model that combines the power of both approaches to get things moving faster.

Simple real-life reality-shifting
Our choices in every moment create the realities we experience individually and collectively. As we get deeper into this thinking and bring in more intentionality, the quality and personalisation of our experiences become richer.
In almost any town for example, we can move between any shop, cafe, co-working space, park or yoga studio we desire, choosing those that best suit our values and needs. Even if in some towns there is only one example of each of those places that fits the vibe we are looking for, by the end of the day, our experience of that town will be far more elevated than that of many other people’s, thanks to our strong intentionality to create our desired reality.
As we continue to support these places, our vibration helps to make them the buzzing places they are and sooner or later, they become popular and other business’s begin to follow suit.
This is the process of real-life reality-shifting and how a reality of indigenous modernism can be created. Our choices carry the power to create movements and even worlds.
