Connection: A Fundamental Frequency of Sacred Business

Haven’t yet taken the Sacred Business Harmony Map Assessment? Create a business that truly supports your lifestyle through more time, money, and freedom.

When Carolina and I developed the 9 Fundamental Frequencies of Sacred Business, we looked closely at what makes the difference between entrepreneurs who thrive and those who struggle. These frequencies aren't just business concepts - they're essential qualities that guide how we show up in our work and life. Connection is one of these nine frequencies, alongside others like Growth, Vitality, and Simplicity. While each frequency is powerful on its own, they work together as a system to help you create a business that truly supports your lifestyle through more time, money, and freedom. What's powerful about understanding these frequencies is that you can both identify areas that need strengthening AND leverage the frequencies where you're already strong. For example, if you score high in Growth but low in Connection, you can use your natural drive for growth to help build better relationships.

Before diving deeper into Connection, I recommend taking our Harmony Map Assessment. This free tool will show you which frequencies are strongest for you right now and which ones need more attention. It's the best way to understand where you are on your Sacred Business path and what to focus on first.

Now, let me share what we’ve learned about Connection through our own journey from burnout to balance. When I (Phil) was facing that golf ball-sized tumor in my neck and Carolina was struggling with those debilitating migraines, we both discovered something profound: you can't separate your business success from your personal wellbeing. They're deeply connected, whether we acknowledge it or not.

This understanding of connection impacts two key areas:

1. Confidence: When you understand your place in the bigger picture and truly feel like you belong
2. Purpose: When your business goals line up naturally with what matters most to you

What Connection Looks Like in Practice

When you're connected, you'll notice:

• You feel at home in your own skin
• Your relationships (both personal and professional) have real meaning
• You communicate clearly and honestly
• You trust your inner guidance
• Your work and personal life flow together naturally
• You can be yourself without pretending

But when connection is missing, you might experience:

• Feeling alone or cut off from others
• Struggling with relationships
• Hard time getting your message across
• Disconnect between your spiritual practice and business
• Doubting your intuition
• Fear of being real with others

Essential Practices

1. Business Entity Meditation

20 minutes | 2-3 times per week

This meditation helps you build a real relationship with your business as something alive and growing. It's not just visualization - it's about opening up to receive guidance about your work in a deeper way.

What makes this different is how it brings together three elements: you, your business, and something bigger than both. With regular practice, you'll likely notice:

• Clearer sense of why you're doing what you do
• More trust in your business decisions
• Natural alignment between what matters to you and what you do day-to-day

Pro tip: Carolina and I often use this meditation before making big decisions or when we are feeling uncertain about next steps. Many of our clients report surprising insights during these sessions.

2. Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya Meditation

11 minutes | Daily

This mantra meditation opens up a direct line to wisdom while helping you find real inner peace. Through regular practice, you might experience:

• Deeper trust in your guidance
• Stronger sense of purpose
• Natural flow between your values and actions
• Better decision-making
• Stronger connection to why you do what you do

Pro tip: This is a really powerful practice to do first thing in the morning, setting up your whole day for better connection.

3. Sacred Movement Practice

15-20 minutes | Daily

This practice helps you move beyond just understanding ideas in your head to feeling them in your body through mindful movement. Regular practice tends to bring:

• Stronger trust in your gut feelings
• Physical presence that matches how you want to lead
• Natural integration of your values into your work
• More confidence in business situations
• Deeper connection to your purpose

Pro tip: Try this before important meetings to help you show up as your best self.

Supporting Tools

Essential Oils: Whisper Touch Blend

This blend includes oils like Jasmine and Ylang Ylang that help balance emotions and boost intuition. It supports:

• Confidence: Helping you trust your inner knowing
• Purpose: Keeping you aligned with what matters most

How to use it:

• Before meditation or planning: Put on wrists and pulse points
• Before meetings: Touch to back of neck
• In your workspace: Use in a passive diffuser
• For lasting effect: Mix with unscented lotion

Pro tip: I (Carolina) like using this before the Business Entity Meditation to deepen my connection with my business's purpose.
