Developing the New Nervous System

May 29, 2025 by Keiko Niwa

Developing the new nervous system is an extreme sport. There have been moments when I’ve questioned whether or not my body could withstand it. It’s also the greatest thing one can do to be here in full autonomy and in a state of perpetual newness. It changes your tangible experience here like nothing else can.

I just got back from a 2 week long adventure to England and Germany with many of you reading this. We saw Gaia off at the Glastonbury Tor and then we created a fluid container to explore ourselves as the prisms of light. It was intensive at the human level and there were so many potentially sticky situations involved in traveling alone overseas with 3 bags that were literally my weight in camera equipment.

I was also there to work doing something I’d never done before (videography) and had to coordinate all the many details that go into that. 

Throughout it all I had the capacity to be fully present with everyone and was functioning at a high level without getting fully energy depleted.

The way I was able to do all of this was through this new nervous system that I’ve cultivated for years. 

It’s literally a self generating new energy motion in my body of consciousness.

A flow that puts creation and destruction on autopilot so that I’m not adding karma to this world already laden with so much mental and emotional pollution and that allows me to remain in the vertical as I act in this world. 

In potentially high stress situations where the mind wants to dwell in “problems”, energy can easily be depleted but I’m actually generating it as I act because when your in your new nervous system you are taking steps through old creations instead of listening to an identity negotiating how to make itself feel better at all times. 

It’s the sensation of living at that zero point.

When you start tapping into a reservoir that isn’t finite and you keep that aperture open, you self generate energy as you’re acting because the act comes from a universal consciousness.

 Life is not running through a consciousness identified with the small mind and emotions. It all goes to the spine directly so there is no or very little delay .

The energy doesn’t stay circling in holding patterns.

Instead it has access to its source at all times. 

Energy and consciousness can work together as one.

In this state you aren’t leaving residue on this planet, you are always cleaning up your own mess in real time and in essence taking all of creation with you. 

So how does this all work at the practical level?

When we look at everything within and begin to understand what’s what the voice of the identity starts to get really small. 

At first its loud and we think that’s who we are. You know, the one who wants this or doesn't want that. That voice with strong opinions and likes and dislikes. When we distance ourselves from that voice it starts to become a tinny far away part of you. You hear it but it’s not in charge anymore. 

That’s when a flip occurs. The true You is now running the show as the boss.

All of this gets clear as we get the hang of commanding the energy. As we do what we know is more true to ourselves we override the small voice that just wants to hide or run or control or whatever.

This is how we begin to really tap into our creational intelligence. We look at whats going on in the mental and emotional bodies so much that we know what is temporary and what is always there. 

We can then access the instantaneous wisdom without the delay that creates karmic sludge. 

We no longer need to experience and then die and bring that lifetime to wisdom later, that’s the old way. Now it all goes directly to awareness itself as the act is occurring simultaneously.

There is no need for a motivation to act, you simple act because you’re in your joy. 

Only an identity needs a motivation to act.

So all of this is so active. We can’t cultivate any of this passively. We have to go beyond that identity with ferocity at times. 

I was showing Nancy in Germany my katana samurai move to cut down that small voice that tries to intervene. Sometimes it takes that level of NO. Especially with persistent parts that are really sticky. We have to actively create new grooves, new neural networks to get this new nervous system functioning.

Every time we create these new grooves or passageways through slaying our inner demons, seeing our sticky bullshit for what it is,  recognizing our persistent stories, noticing the old beliefs, etc., we are cultivating our new nervous system. 

It’s that simple.

These seemingly small acts within ourselves create a very tangible new experience expression.

An existence that does not pollute this planet through mental and emotional indulgence.

We can walk light here in this way. 

We can generate our own energy without having to feed and take from outside. We can be here fully involved with all of life, feeling all of the flow without letting it linger to long in fixed ways. We can be here more present than ever.

It just takes some getting used to. 

We have to get used to the tension of stepping through old mental loops. We get so used to the intensity that it just becomes a low grade persistent hum in our hearts. 

It becomes our greatest friend and ally, keeping us at that precipice of creation and destruction at all times.

This is truly when things get fun. This is when we feel the freedom to choose whatever we want to choose.

We just have to get out of the self-imposed prisons first then it all gets clear.

We have to realize that the one wielding the mind is not a fixed identity but a much grander intelligence who is your true Self. An unfathomable mystery that is very felt as you give space and observe the mind for what it is. It’s in that very pause, in that in-between, where we get the sensation of a grander truth behind it all and it all unfolds naturally from there.

Cultivating the new nervous system has made the potential I was made aware of back in 2021 a reality. I got a glimpse of what life feels like free from fixed identity creations. It was a couple weeks of complete bliss.

This article is a peek into how I got there.
