Hi, I’m Selahm
You might have met me back when I was Leanne.
Leanne unleashed her aliveness so fully that she escaped oppression and I was born into the bigger world of Libration. Now I write inspirational, instructional rallying cries to inspire the breave to unleash their aliveness, escape oppression, and lead others to liberation. Oppression will tell you it is impossible to escape. I will show you the path out.
About me
In a world of oppression, we learn to be numb and hide our Aliveness.
But I have come alive.
“Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it… what the world needs is people who have come alive.” Howard Thurman
Everything I write is born from my love affair with Aliveness - the universal force of life expressing through us, and all of life, without our conscious direction or control. I long to live in the bigger world of institutionalized liberation where we have reclaimed our reverence for Aliveness which is our birthright as human beings. The fear of Aliveness turned us into colonized people who colonized people. We became afraid of life and desperate to feel safe through domination.
But colonized people can reclaim our birthright; to live in harmony with life and be dazzlingly alive. My 18 Liberatory Practices are direct antidotes to oppressive practices like urgency, perfectionism, and self-hatred. Liberatory Practices equip, enable, and embolden the brave to heal their internalized oppression (ie imposter syndrome, white and brown saviorism, shame, and self-doubt.) These practices can recalibrate your being so you experience your full and authentic Aliveness.
Your Aliveness is your true power.
