FeeL Your F&cking feelings
01 / 05 METAL AUTUMN
Bring a metal baseball bat. We ride at dawn.
Okay, not dawn. 8:30. I am not a monster.
Metal is the element of letting go.
It governs the breath, the boundary, and the clean cut. It is what lets you grieve something fully and then set it down.
When Metal is stuck, you know it. You hold on past the point of usefulness. You keep the box in the closet. You carry a resentment so long it stops feeling like a resentment and starts feeling like a personality.
Or you go the other way and cut everything off so fast nothing can reach you, and call that healing.
Neither of those is release. Release is physical.
So we are going to do it physically.
What actually happens
-
01
We meet on the beach while it is still cold. There is a fire.
-
02
You write what you are done carrying on a pumpkin. In Sharpie. Be specific and be honest. Nobody is reading it but you.
-
03
You take a metal bat to it.
-
04
We stand around and breathe and watch the ocean do what it does, which is keep going.
That is the whole event. It is not complicated. It is just rarely permitted.
