The new year often arrives carrying an unspoken demand: clarity, momentum, certainty, and change. In this first Merkaba Temple teaching of 2026, Christopher Shaw gently dismantles the belief that you are late, broken, or failing an invisible timeline.

Rather than pushing listeners toward vision or ambition, this teaching invites a necessary landing — into the body, into honesty, and into the season you are actually in. Drawing from sacred wisdom and nervous-system truth, this transmission reframes beginning not as force, but as safety.

The teaching is followed by a guided meditation led by Aeon, offering a grounded somatic integration to help the body release “New Year pressure,” recognize its current season, and return to presence without urgency.

This episode is for anyone entering the year feeling tired, unsure, or pressured to be more than they are — and for those ready to begin differently.

✨ Reflection Questions
Where have I been measuring myself against a timeline that isn’t mine?
What season am I honestly in right now — finishing, resting, or returning?
What would it feel like to begin this year without pressure?

🔥 Practice of the Week
Each morning, place one hand on your heart and one on your belly.
Take three slow breaths and repeat quietly:
“I am on time. I am arriving. Nothing essential has been missed.”
Let your body respond before your mind.
