What if something as simple as spinning could become a daily practice of presence, movement, and expanded awareness? Today, I want to celebrate one of our beautiful System Reset cohort members, Anne Nilsson, who shared an inspiring initiative with our community. Anne is beginning 33 days of Sufi whirling and invited others to join her, share their experiences, and witness what unfolds through daily practice. I absolutely LOVE when our community takes the initiative to turn inspiration into action. And this one is especially close to my heart because I’ve explored and shared this spinning practice myself. THE INSPIRATION: BRINGERS OF THE DAWN In Bringers of the Dawn, Barbara Marciniak shares teachings she attributes to the Pleiadians about the relationship between spinning, our energetic centers, and consciousness. The text describes spinning as a practice intended to activate and accelerate the chakra system, supporting expanded perception and awareness. While these are spiritual teachings rather than scientifically established effects, I’ve always been fascinated by the relationship between movement, the vestibular system, balance, and our perception of reality. THE ORIGINAL PRACTICE — 33 SPINS Inspired by Chapter 21 of Bringers of the Dawn: 1. Stand in a clear, safe space with your arms extended. 2. Begin spinning from left to right (clockwise when viewed from above). 3. Focus your vision on your thumb. 4. Count each complete rotation. 5. Gradually build toward 33 rotations, without forcing yourself through dizziness. 6. Finish by bringing your palms together at your heart. 7. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, eyes open, and allow yourself to settle. 8. Observe your physical sensations, mental clarity, and state of awareness. The original teaching suggests working toward 33 spins daily, eventually exploring 33 rotations three times per day. OUR COMMUNITY EXPERIMENT: 33 DAYS Inspired by Anne, I would love to invite everyone who feels called to explore a 33-day practice together.
