It's your dedication to show up for yourself every single day. It's your devotion to your art, your craft, to your community. To your Mystic Codes. Why would you only show up to the altar when you need something rather than a devotional prayer to your life? A space where you get to make, create, and ritualize so that it all becomes second nature. Your daydreams deserve a space where you can breathe life into it. Not from a place of force or having to, but from a place of flow… And getting to. Your dreams deserve to feel expansive and to be seen. And simultaneously, they need devotional habits to be created into reality. 🌙Are you down to take the journey with me?

I love teaching Flows over Flaws to creatives and mystically inclined folks like you because I know how much art and creation wants to be expressed through you. But trashy things like perfectionism, procrastination, and self-doubt are so REAL when it comes to a creative's process. What we'll cover healing perfectionism from a NERVOUS SYSTEM level how to be in a flow state in your creative process and building habits that help you do the above. In an era where every move feels curated and every creation pressured to be flawless, perfectionism is the silent killer of creativity. Flows Over Flaws is a workshop for those ready to break free from the paralysis of overthinking and reconnect with their true expression using nervous system wisdom.

When you're sensitive, intuitive, or creatively wired, your nervous system knows when something is off. It cannot "perform authenticity". In this episode, we explore why authenticity isn't a brand, a personality, or a performance for creative and spiritual people. It's a state of regulation. 🌙This is why showing up consistently can feel exhausting when your nervous system isn't on board. 🌙How performing alignment leads to burnout, numbness, or creative shutdown Good luck! ▲ DAYDREAMER ARCHETYPE QUIZ: https://alwaysplay.org/dreamer ▲ DAYDREAMER PORTAL: https://alwaysplay.org/daydreamer ▲ Free Healing Arts Community: https://tinyurl.com/playground222 ▲ MYSTIC CODES MASTERMIND waitlist: https://www.alwaysplay.org/mystic ▲ Become a certified breathwork facilitator: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com/ ▲ Read my Breathwork book, Breathe: www.alwaysplay.org/orderbreathe ▲ Connect on social: @shanila.sattar

Perfectionism isn't the problem because it was protection. For many sensitive, creative people, perfectionism once kept things safe and it helped with belonging, regulation, and avoiding rejection. But over time, that same protection started to be a prison for creative expression. Ideas get stuck and the right time to make moves never arrives. This is often a nervous system story and rarely has anything to do with "standards". When the body doesn't feel safe to be seen or felt, creativity retreats. The truth is: moving forward doesn't come from forcing or fixing. It comes from learning how to create safety within the body, so expression can emerge naturally again. ▲ DAYDREAMER ARCHETYPE QUIZ: https://alwaysplay.org/dreamer ▲ DAYDREAMER PORTAL: https://alwaysplay.org/daydreamer ▲ Free Healing Arts Community: https://tinyurl.com/playground222 ▲ MYSTIC CODES MASTERMIND waitlist: https://www.alwaysplay.org/mystic ▲ Become a certified breathwork facilitator: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com/ ▲ Read my Breathwork book, Breathe: www.alwaysplay.org/orderbreathe ▲ Connect on social: @shanila.sattar
Who dropped into 2026 with renewed creative energy? Sit with this question: What does it actually take for a creative nervous system to feel safe enough to create? So many sensitive, intuitive, imaginative people carry so much potential and yet feel stuck, scattered, or quietly overwhelmed. In a world that rewards urgency, productivity, and performance, creativity often becomes something we push instead of something we EMBODY. You feel me? This episode is an invitation to return to that truth: to explore how your nervous system shapes your creativity, your energy, and your ability to move forward without forcing. ▲ DAYDREAMER ARCHETYPE QUIZ: https://alwaysplay.org/dreamer ▲ DAYDREAMER PORTAL: https://alwaysplay.org/daydreamer ▲ Free Healing Arts Community: https://tinyurl.com/playground222 ▲ MYSTIC CODES MASTERMIND waitlist: https://www.alwaysplay.org/mystic ▲ Become a certified breathwork facilitator: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com/ ▲ Read my Breathwork book, Breathe: www.alwaysplay.org/orderbreathe ▲ Connect on social: @shanila.sattar
The year of the wood snake begins to conclude its...adventures into to the underworld and emerges slowly but surely. Shedding the skins of what's no longer needed, the energy begins to shift with the Fire Horse which will bring outward momentum towards hopes and dreams that actually mean something to you. You'll come back to child-like curiosities, play, and find that the world is truly your playground. ________________________________ ▲ Become a certified breathwork facilitator: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com/ ▲ Learn your Healer Archetype: www.alwaysplay.org/healerarchetype ▲ Read my Breathwork book, Breathe: www.alwaysplay.org/orderbreathe ▲ Free Playground for Mystics: https://tinyurl.com/playground222 ▲ Connect on social: @shanila.sattar ▲ YouTube: https://youtube.com/c/shanilasattar ▲ Healing Arts Practitioner Training Program Immersion: www.alwaysplay.org/immersion
It's about that time of year. Here is what healing arts practitioner's can expect in the upcoming year. The shifts are subtle but totally obvious! ________________________________ ▲ Become a certified breathwork facilitator: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com/ ▲ Learn your Healer Archetype: www.alwaysplay.org/healerarchetype ▲ Read my Breathwork book, Breathe: www.alwaysplay.org/orderbreathe ▲ Free Playground for Mystics: https://tinyurl.com/playground222 ▲ Connect on social: @shanila.sattar ▲ YouTube: https://youtube.com/c/shanilasattar ▲ Healing Arts Practitioner Training Program Immersion: www.alwaysplay.org/immersion
The thing about your subconscious is that it loves to have a VILLAIN. It's always searching for problems, things to fix, to heal, to make better, to improve. The more we look, the more problems we will find. In this episode, let's talk about how we can SLAY the villain so that it no longer takes ahold of us. ________________________________ ▲ Become a certified breathwork facilitator: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com/ ▲ Learn your Healer Archetype: www.alwaysplay.org/healerarchetype ▲ Read my Breathwork book, Breathe: www.alwaysplay.org/orderbreathe ▲ Free Playground for Mystics: https://tinyurl.com/playground222 ▲ Connect on social: @shanila.sattar ▲ YouTube: https://youtube.com/c/shanilasattar ▲ Healing Arts Practitioner Training Program Immersion: www.alwaysplay.org/immersion
Is your soul telling you to wait on something or are you giving into fear again? How do you know the difference? Let's talk Your nervous system wants to feel safety over anything else. But how it interprets safety… Is not always correct. Sometimes staying in what feels the most familiar FEELS safe but is actually destroying your soul's capacity to grow. We misinterpret the sign by believing that it's not the right time to act, that we need more time to prepare, that's something else needs to line up in order for us to take action. But truthfully, you're operating from a nervous system that is in survival mode. It says, why change something when it's easier to continue to do exactly what we're doing even if we're unhappy with the results we're getting. It's too much work to do the Shadow work. It's too much work to shift our identities. It is too much work to change our habits and thoughts and behaviors. It's easier here. It's easier, but is it better? Is waiting giving your soul the room and space to grow? Is waiting giving your soul permission to explore? _____________________ ▲ Join Mystic Codes Immersion + Mastermind for Healers: https://alwaysplay.org/mystic ▲ Become a certified breathwork facilitator: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com/ ▲ Learn your Healer Archetype: www.alwaysplay.org/healerarchetype ▲ Read my Breathwork book, Breathe: www.alwaysplay.org/orderbreathe ▲ Free Playground for Mystics: https://tinyurl.com/playground222 ▲ Connect on social: @shanila.sattar ▲ YouTube: https://youtube.com/c/shanilasattar ▲ Healing Arts Practitioner Training Program Immersion: www.alwaysplay.org/immersion
My nervous system has been collapsing for the last two weeks and here is a real time account of what I'm experiencing. Something about a nervous system that is slowly in decline is that it's really hard to catch and it will sneak up on you. Perhaps you have experienced some of the symptoms or are currently experiencing the symptoms yourself. As somebody who teaches about the nervous system, it simultaneously is really awesome and it sucks to be so hyper aware when your system is approaching a collapse. For me, I am very aware of my energy rhythms and currently the biggest take away is that any energy that I'm generating is going towards processing emotions to the point where afterwards I don't have anything left for other things. I'm grateful that this emotions have a place to exist in my physical body and that my body is alchemizing them at this intense rate, but it doesn't change the fact that it is incredibly exhausting! I'd love to hear from you if you've experienced what I'm talking about in this episode!

✨ Being multipassionate isn't a flaw. It's your magic. It's not your fault that you love so many things and you're good at them hehe. You're not scattered for wanting to weave together all the parts of you. You're not "unfocused" for dreaming in more than one direction. You're a mystic, a creative, an artist. You're here to live in layers.That means honoring the thread that ties it all together.

This eclipse season shadows are already fun because all the clarity you got around summer solstice is kinda...dissipating. All the excitement you felt around your decisions is now feeling more emotional. These delayed emotions might make you second guess your choices, or dysregulate your nervous system. But that's truly the test! You're being asked to backtrack and look at the wounds you overlooked and maybe acted out of integrity towards. We're there casualties in your moves? Think of this eclipse as a clearing. The Pisces energy says lets close chapter for real and virgo energy says step into this self-realized energy for real. The emotional and logically meet together. ▲ Join Mystic Codes Immersion + Mastermind for Healers: https://alwaysplay.org/mystic _________________________________ Go Deeper: BREATHWORK ⭐ Study breathwork with me: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com SHADOW WORK ⭐ https://www.alwaysplay.org/shadow-work PERFECTIONISM RESOURCES: ⭐ Perfectionism Quiz: https://www.alwaysplay.org/perfection HEALING ARTS ⭐ Discover your healer archetype: https://www.alwaysplay.org/healerarchetype ⭐ Healing Arts Courses: https://alwaysplay.org/courses __________ 📖 My breathwork Book: https://flowbreathworktraining.com/orderbreathe
Why are you in an uncommitted relationship with your dreams? The inconsistency! The avoidance! Poor communication habits! You will never do this with an actual person that you were building a relationship with, so why is it that you do this with your dreams and desires? Just like you would work towards your insecurities and triggers in a relationship with a person, your dream requires the same type of energy. When you look at the core of your habits, thoughts, and behaviors when it comes to the pursuit of your dreams and desires, are you a good partner or is it giving avoidance hot and cold behavior? Grab your tea and your blanket and let's get into it. If you're ready to build a consistent relationship that's based on devotion, love, and safety with your dreams: https://alwaysplay.org/mystic
111 it's a sign! Okay, but how? Synchronicities, coincidences, and the language of the universe are all the same concept: frequency transmissions. Each sign holds a unique code that's coming through to you, FOR you. In this episode, let's demystify the signs, especially if you feel like you've been getting so many lately! ✨ To sync or to coincide is to be in the vibrational match for something at the same time ✨ How the universe speaks through numbers, dreams, and archetypal symbols ✨ Why synchronicities are "breadcrumbs" guiding you along your path ✨ Practical tools to decode the signs around you _____________________ ▲ Join Mystic Codes Immersion + Mastermind for Healers: https://alwaysplay.org/mystic ▲ Become a certified breathwork facilitator: https://www.flowbreathworktraining.com/ ▲ Learn your Healer Archetype: www.alwaysplay.org/healerarchetype ▲ Read my Breathwork book, Breathe: www.alwaysplay.org/orderbreathe ▲ Free Playground for Mystics: https://tinyurl.com/playground222 ▲ Connect on social: @shanila.sattar ▲ YouTube: https://youtube.com/c/shanilasattar ▲ Healing Arts Practitioner Training Program Immersion: www.alwaysplay.org/immersion

There comes a time in your healing journey when it's time for energy work. Healing happens in stages. In the beginning, you want to talk about why you have dirty dishes in the sink. You want to analyze and understand. Next, you figure out how to remove and clean said dishes. Then, comes the invisible. Even when you cleared your sink, there's still a residue. There's a smell. You can't put your finger on it it but you know it's there. There's something in the drain. Time for energy work. Intentional energy work gets to the core of how your nervous system, your energetic body, and your emotions are all intertwined together. When you understand everything mentally, but rarely work on the emotional intelligence required in your physical body to navigate the frequency and energetic shifts of your healing… you come to a standstill. It feels like you're stuck. You know there's still something there, but it doesn't make sense logically anymore. This is energetic. You can't think you're way out of this. You must feel and recalibrate your energy.
