Don't Let MAGA Destroy You, And Why Quantum Coherence Practices Are Our Secret Weapon

As things get progressively worse in Amerika, it becomes clearer and clearer to me that, if we are going to be able to save our sanity, democracy and our planet, we must practice coherence. According to Phys.org, quantum coherence is the phase relationships between waves in a quantum system, crucial for maintaining superposition and entanglement.

Quantum coherence is not just an abstract idea. Our body’s fascia is both atomic and quantum and coherence practices have real-time effects on how we show up. To be clear, I am speaking of an embodied, grounded structure of consciousness and a feeling state that is not reacting in old trauma patterns. In other words, feeling myself whole and present while feeling more of everything because I am alive and flowing, like a mountain stream. This includes feeling the things that trigger my fears, as a part of a larger field of awareness that includes a new sense of freedom. I feel more internal volume. I feel less pressured. Time, space and new options open up. You feel physical results like moving better and less pain but you also become more attuned and able to integrate more of your spiritual self with your physical life.


There is less pressure to rush and break things. There is less waste of vital energy by forcing or manipulating (energetically controlling), bracing (energetically withdrawing), ghosting (physically withholding or withdrawing) or collapsing into despair and defeat. These are not bad reactions, just outdated ones for where we are today.

The feeling of too much pressure pushing or pulling you away from your center is linked to the way your body shapes herself in response to a perceived threat. Your body is speaking the language of your inner feeling state. It’s time to listen.

The good news is that plasticity, adaptability, eros and self-agency are actually built into the architecture of our bodies so that when we are triggered into fear, we have other choices besides doing something to avoid it. The good news is this is not something to aquire. It is already built into you. It arises spontaneously. You just need to summon it.

Our bodies can support us as we inch toward more embodied coherence and help us develop a more sacred relationship with all things. The ability to seek out connections and triangulate support that helps us respond instead of react, lives in our bodies. It is both a naturally occurring and an emergent property, and we can leverage this.

Fascia is a sensory system of communication, capable of supersensory, quantum abilities. An incredibly responsive network of support lives in the microfibrils of our living web with the potential of superconductivity, meaning electricity can flow through you without resistance. When this happens, you are the mountain stream. There is a sense of lift, hope, optimism, joy, gratitude and awe. Superconductors literally create their own gravitational field and you (at least your emotional state) can defy gravity.

Think of your fascia as the expression of your living architecture, tasked with maintaining a balance of tension and compression as you go through life. You do not have to walk around bracing or collapsing to keep from falling over because our bodies are pre-tensed. Yet we do so anyway, silently narrating our emotional story.

By connecting with and triangulating support in perfect geometry, the microfibrils within our fascial fluid maintain the tension so we experience the right amount of compression to provide stability and clear boundaries while remaining fluid. Our bodies know how to do this physically and emotionally.

Coherence arises spontaneously within this supercharged fluid medium. Coherence is unbounded. It is a series of matching waves that expand in and out in a resonant field. In the words of my teacher, Emilie Conrad, “ We cannot grow healthy within a bounded self that is deadened to its own primary existence. In resonance or rapport, we are communicating beyond verbal interactions. Our words become the background.” The background Emilie speaks of is this larger field of understanding and relating that informs our responses and actions.

We can leverage this understanding to support us as we face the hard truths of our past and the challenges ahead and open up a new sense of freedom, choice and agency.
