All The Everything is Lian's solo show where she dives deep into a topic, often woven around a myth or fairytale that she's been journeying with.

The LIVE making of All The Everything is recorded live on YouTube… to join Lian for the one: Make sure you're subscribed to our Moonly News email list and are a member of our Facebook group and we'll let you know when the next one is happening.

Lian explores what creates a soulful Christmas, beginning with the way the season stirs old memories and sudden tenderness, then circling through the frantic pace that pulls so many of us away from what we actually long for. She speaks about ancient midwinter traditions flickering beneath the surface of modern life, the hush that falls when the light begins to change, and the quiet ache that arrives when we slow down enough to notice what is really happening inside us.

From there the conversation moves into the practices that help you hold your ground in the middle of family dynamics, sensory overwhelm and the expectations that seem to gather in the dark of December, settling finally on how vision, community and small daily gestures shape the kind of Christmas you actually want to live.

Listen if you have ever felt both joy and dread rising together, wondered why familiar patterns return each year, or longed for a holiday that welcomes every part of you.

We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.

What you'll receive from this episode:

• How the old rhythms under Christmas reveal themselves once you stop trying to perform the holiday and start listening for what is already moving beneath it

• Why acknowledging longing, memory and discomfort can create a steadier, warmer Christmas than pushing for cheer ever could

• What happens when you root your Christmas in real soulful practices rather than pressure, and how this transforms the way you experience community, self-care and the season itself

The Soul Practices Lian invited you into:

🌿 AWAKENING YOUR WILDNESS PRACTICES

Wild Practice 1: Sunrise or Moon Greeting

1. Make an intentional devotional choice to go outside each morning or night (depending on whether you're a morning or night person).

2. Go out even for a very short amount of time (even one minute).

3. Greet the sunrise or the moon.

4. Pause and commune with that great being.

5. Let the light (sunlight or moonlight) touch your face.

6. Imagine your breath matching its ancient rhythm.

7. Allow its blessing into you.

8. Receive the gift of light.

Wild Practice 2: Choose a Place in Nature & Make an Offering

1. Choose a place in nature (a sit spot, special tree, or a place you feel drawn to).

2. If you don't have one, go and find one.

3. Take a small offering that won't damage the environment or wildlife.

4. Offer it intentionally (for example, seeds for birds).

5. Whisper your gratitude.

6. Make this an intentional act of giving at Christmas in a way that is wilder and older.

7. The offering can be for the place itself or the creatures who live there.

Wild Practice 3: Mini Wild Wonder Walk

1. Go for a short walk (even five minutes).

2. Do not set a goal or destination.

3. Allow your belly button to lead you.

4. Notice your body and your breath as you walk.

5. Notice what shifts as you return to belonging to the earth.

6. Come out of the busy, material world and return to your body and the earth.

7. Do this intentionally, even briefly.

👑 ACTUALISING YOUR SOVEREIGNTY PRACTICES

Sovereign Practice 1: Inner Child Christmas Inquiry

1. Ask your inner child:

2. What do you wish for Christmas this year?

3. What do you fear?

4. What do you crave?

5. What do you long for?

6. What would allow you to feel safe and welcomed?

7. Allow your inner child to answer you.

8. This can be a daily practice, especially in the mornings.

9. Keep your inner child present with you through the Christmas period.

Sovereign Practice 2: Throne of Sovereignty (Before Family Gatherings)

1. Before a family gathering (or before guests descend):

2. Stand or sit with both feet on the ground.

3. Breathe into your belly.

4. Imagine yourself sitting on the throne of your life.

5. Feel yourself rooted to the earth.

6. Imagine a crown on your head, opening to spirit and allowing it to flow through you.

7. Let this remind you of being centred, grounded, and guided.

8. Return to this embodied memory whenever you feel pulled out of centre or old patterns arise.

Sovereign Practice 3: Permission to Leave the Room

1. If a situation becomes tense, difficult, or painful:

2. Give yourself permission to leave the room.

3. It can be brief.

4. Even knowing you have permission can be enough.

5. Use simple excuses if needed (loo, letting dogs out, stepping into the garden).

6. Take a moment to ground yourself, reconnect with your inner child, and return to yourself.

7. Recognise this as a sovereign choice.

✨ AWAKENING THE SOUL PRACTICES

Soul Practice 1: Read a Nourishing Poem

1. Read a poem that nourishes you.

2. Poets mentioned: David Whyte, Mary Oliver (or your own favourites).

3. Make it a daily ritual, ideally in the morning.

4. Notice the line that speaks to you that day.

5. Journey with that line throughout the day.

6. Ask:

7. What is it wanting your soul to know?

8. What is it opening your soul to?

9. Let the poem be a soul touchstone through the day.

Soul Practice 2: Soulful Meditation / Being With Your Soul

1. Meditate in whatever way feels nourishing.

2. It does not need to be long (even five minutes).

3. Avoid forcing or obligation.

4. Create beauty:

5. Light a candle.

6. Gaze into the flame.

7. Simply be with yourself and your soul.

8. This may not even feel like "meditation" — it is a moment of communion with your soul.

Soul Practice 3: Listen Deeply

1. Listen to something nourishing:

2. Music

3. An audio (e.g. Richard Rudd / Gene Keys)

4. Let one phrase, melody, or sound shape the tone of your day.

5. Allow it to move through you.

6. Notice what your soul is being called to.

7. Let it remind you of your inner light, especially in bleak or wintry times.

The questions Lian asked:

Question 1

"If I could shape Christmas around what my soul actually longs for this year, what would it look like?"

Question 2

"Will you hold that vision?"

Will you hold the vision of what Christmas would look like if your soul was met and fulfilled in what it longs for? It is a sovereign choice to hold a soul-aligned vision.
