We had an incredible day today. Let us share our excitement and our love with you! Jenny & Otis http://www.funkmeyers.com

In this episode, we explain our art of spontaneous travel planning and spontaneous life-living. JUST GO FOR IT! Live big. Do it up. This reality is created by YOU! You are the God that you have been waiting for! MUSTER UP THE COURAGE AND JUMP OFF THE CLIFF OF MUNDANE REALITY!

What a fun episode indeed. Jenny tells you all about Drunvalo Melchizedek's Living in the Heart meditation and shows you how to do it. Along the way, Otis dances as accompaniment and mimes part of the story as well. SO FUN! SO CREATIVE! SO MUCH JOY! WE LOVE YOU SO SO MUCH! WE THANK GOD FOR YOUR EXISTENCE!!! Jenny & Otis http://www.funkmeyers.com

So I am purging my fear of teaching dance on the internet, which is such a huge passion of mine. I have been so afraid of this moment for so long but I know that from it, massive amounts of creativity are being unleashed. Slowly but surely. This is my dream, and I am following it, through my fear, and making it happen. I DECLARE IT SO. AND SO IT IS! I love you! Otis (and Jenny loves you to from Hawaii) http://www.funkmeyers.com

In the first episode of Otis Funkmeyer's Popping for Absolute Beginners, we are focused on the VERY basics of isolation. Namely, what it is and how we can get started doing it in a way that is comfortable. I have found that the easiest way to begin to understand isolation is by playing with your hands. They are always available, they never make you feel self-conscious, and they allow you to practice while you sit at your desk. In further lessons, we will expand upon the ideas that we have begun exploring here. Start with the basics and progress slowly. I LOVE YOU! Otis http://www.funkmeyers.com P.S. Jenny is in Hawaii giving me the opportunity to come to you on a solo mission!

The point is to keep creative. Find something creative to do and do it. Let go of any attachment to where it's leading. It's leading to more creativity. Just let it happen. Your life will get better and better, bit by bit. RELAX ALLOW! YOU ARE A BELOVED CHILD OF THE UNIVERSE! We love you! Jenny & Otis http://www.funkmeyers.com

So we had a magical day of work work work and we wanted some goodies to enjoy. Jenny had the absolutely mah-velous idea of making some dehydrated fruit and we thought we'd show you how simple and fun it can be. We also demo some superfoods so you can know what kind of tasty treats to pick up at Whole Foods. My recommendation for the superfood to start with is Maca. WE LOVE YOU! Otis & Jenny http://www.funkmeyers.com

So we woke up early today and got a head start on the day. Jenny had powerful experiences yesterday tossing out the remaining things she THOUGHT were dear to her, which in fact, were not. Now down to 5% of her previous possessions, everything she does have is a treasured memory, the tapestry upon which a life of the ages is woven. THIS FEELING IS SO EXQUISITE only as Gods do we know such creation! Hallelujah!

Jenny tells a lot of powerful stories. The cleansing continues...

Another big day here in Funkmeyerville! Jenny and I had our first colonics experience experience today and for her, it was awesome, and for me, it was intense! That's how it goes Funkateers! I feel really ready to release a lot of deep-held things and I had *NO* *NO* *NO* idea how intense this colon cleansing was going to be. I thought that this was just something that was good for your help, but NO. This is like a hardcore spiritual practice like vipassana or ayahuasca or being in silence. We both feel really good and really released. I can't believe I had so much anal fear release. All my life, I've been terrified of my butt--the classic anal retentive. Over the past 5 years, I've actually REALIZED this and it's been a long ongoing journey to release what feels like lifetimes and lifetimes of terror. The cleanse is amazing, we highly recommend it. Blessedherbs.com it's good for you, it's powerful, it's a TRIP what comes out of your body. Check it out Funkateers. WE LOVE YOU! Jenny & Otis http://www.funkmeyers.com

We are hitting our stride on the cleanse today, getting used to the fact that we have to drink this stuff 5 times a day, on regular 3-hour schedules, over and over and over. It's taken a while but once you get used to it--it's tolerable! Jenny and I have given each other more space today and are getting along better, but it's still touch and go. We are cleaning out the external as well as the internal. The storage unit that has in certain places gone untouched for 20 years has all been pulled out and sorted through. Most things got tossed and the rest got put back in a way that we can actually use! This life is getting really wonderful and really powerful. The internal is becoming externalized and we are moving through the final stages of separation before true planetary unity occurs. The recent news of a flu epidemic only speaks to this. We are seeing that we're in it together. Make or break. Do or die. Let's choose life and positivity cuz it's so damn fun! WE LOVE YOU! Jenny & Otis http://www.funkmeyers.com

So another day, another batch of mucoid plaque falls out of our butts and into the toilet. It's pretty crazy how gross this stuff is, but we're coming to accept and love it, which is more than I can say about how we're doing with each other. This is a pretty vicious fight and we fight like this probably once or twice a week at this point. I don't know if this is unhealthy or whatnot, maybe someone can tell me? I am really glad to be putting out stuff like this so that people can see other real people really dealing with life in real ways. Maybe if we do that, it will encourage someone else to just be honest about who they are and what they're going through. That's the idea. WE LOVE YOU! Jenny & Otis

So I was watching this guy Gary Vaynerchuk who is becoming quite the big deal on the Internet and I learned a couple of things. The first thing I learned is that people like stories. You have to focus on stories. Whether you're selling something or doing a podcast or writing a book or whatever. You need stories. The second thing I learned is that charisma takes you a long way. You need to be energetic. You need to take your regular personality and AMPLIFY it. Big time. So I'm gonna do that from now on. It feels right to me. It makes the show a LOT more exciting also for me to watch. Today was the first day of the ACTUAL cleanse portion, meaning 5 drinks of psyllium and bentonite clay per day. It's been challenging to drink so much clay and so much water, but it's for a good cause, y'know? Other than that, I've been cranking away with web design projects and living it up watching Fellini and enjoying a sense of lightness. In this episode, we cover: -The Necessity of cleansing -Jenny's anger about cleansing -Otis's enthusiasm -The fact that you are a God Donut WE LOVE YOU! Jenny & Otis http://www.funkmeyers.com

Today has been a very solid day for me, but a real challenge for Jenny. She hasn't been having regular bowel movements, as she doesn't drink enough water (let her know!!), and so she's been doing regular enemas. When I first heard the word enema, it was immediately impressed into my mind that this was a dirty word, a shameful word, an embarrassing word. Pop culture reinforced this idea, as every joke in every movie about an enema always made it seem like the worst possible thing that can happen to you. This cleanse is really opening my eyes to how much shame we have in regards to our body and its functions. Shitting is incredibly natural. 100% of the healthy population does this thing every single day, but we look it behind doors. Even in loft space where the bedroom is exposed, it is considered essential to have a walled-in bathroom. This is simply a cultural choice, not a fact of human existence. It is just as possibly that food preparation could be considered disgusting, and kitchens would be walled in and no one could barge in on you while you are cooking (ewww gross the kids would say). Anyway, the body is a donut. You know that? There is an opening in the mouth and an opening in the butt and a tube that runs all the way from one to the other. We are, in fact, quite hollow. So cleansing the inside is really a misnomer. We are in fact cleansing a different part of our outside. Strange to consider, but hard to argue with! Anyway, the mucoid plaque continues to come out and the emotional releases continue to occur. It is amazing that we don't really find ourselves hungry whatsoever. I can already say that I highly recommend this activity of cleansing. It feels right and it just seems like a good thing to do for yourself. It gives you a new appreciation of the fact that you are a human, alive in a body, on a rock, traveling through outer (and inner) space, and that while this is incredibly magical, it's also incredibly physical! OH PHYSICAL REALITY WHAT A STRANGE MISTRESS YOU ARE! We love you! Otis & Jenny

So today was a pretty rough day to be honest. A lot of emotional highs and lows--but mostly lows. We both had it rough. But this is to be expected. The colon is the place where we store old memories and cling to the past. As the body and the mind are really one thing, when the body cleanses the mind cleanses as well and we see all the things we've been holding onto. Otis had a big breakthrough during a guided meditation that Jenny did with him that he needs to start dancing again. That feels good. It feels light and pressureless which is a feeling he hasn't felt as much as he'd like. Jenny had mucoid plaque come out and recognized that the body is real and that it does matter what we put inside of ourselves. Internal cleansing is like showering, but for some reason, our culture hasn't wanted to touch it with a 10-foot pole. Imagine what it would be like if you hadn't showered in 10 years. That first shower would make some pretty nasty stuff come off. That's what's going on. We are just getting the first layer. Eventually, cleansing will just be a part of our life like showering is. In this episode, we cover: -Our day -Otis' dancing breakthrough -The synchronicity of the breakthrough -What a colon cleanse actually entails -And we show you MUCOID PLAQUE. NASTY. we love you oh so much kiddos jenny & otis

So we started day 1 of our colon cleanse today. The cleanse starts off with 3 days of preparation. During these 3 days, you are figuring out how many pills you need to take so that you have 3 bowel movements' per day. You also slowly but surely start the cleansing process which kicks into high gear on day 4. We discuss our fears of starting, our excitement, why we're doing this, and how it works. WE LOVE YOU! Jenny & Otis http://www.funkmeyers.com

We have figured out a phenomenal way to produce creative projects on the fly. We have both found that the hardest part about creativity is GETTING STARTED. The dreaded first paragraph. The opening sentence. On and on. It sucks. But talking is easy. You just turn on the camera and start talking. That's no problem for almost anyone. You can mess up, stutter, no problem. And now, because it's 2009, you can then put a bid out on craigslist or elance.com for transcription services and pay no more than 0 for an hour of transcripted audio. You can say A LOT in an hour. Now, with your transcription, you can then create an article, a book, a song, a script, or whatever you want. You have now skipped over the dreaded creating phase and moved into the safer editing phase. And you did it with ease. It was fun. You think, I could do THAT again. And that my friends is the fastest way to get your creativity into the world GUARANTEED! In this episode, we cover: -the method -the fruits of the method -how we are using the method -the joys of the method -the beauty that is life WE LOVE YOU! Jenny & Otis http://www.funkmeyers.com

We are in Ashland, Oregon visiting Oti's dad and Oti has seen a side of himself that he wasn't aware of before: his negativity. This has been difficult and sad but really important and necessary to see as we move forward. Oti has committed to increasingly living a life of positivity. In this episode, we cover: -Our trip to lovely Ashland -Committing to a life of positivity -Letting go of negative tendencies -The challenge involved in this endeavor We have discovered that it is not possible for us to convince anyone that things are getting better and so rather than convincing, we will just live our life of positivity and shine the light of that frequency to the world. That is what we are here to do! WE LOVE YOU! Jenny & Otis http://www.funkmeyers.com

We are on our way to Ashland, Oregon on Amtrak! We love public transportation because it's good for the environment, good for the soul, and good for kicking back and enjoying the passing scenery. In this episode, we cover: -Our love of planes, trains, and bicycles! -How you can incorporate these methods into your life Just a quick update from us on the road! Sending our love to you! WE LOVE YOU! Jenny & Otis http://www.funkmeyers.com
