Do you ever wonder how to discern your true intuitive voice from fear or habitual thoughts? 

 

Today I talk to psychic medium Natalie Miles, who emphasizes there is no right or wrong way to receive intuitive messages. We talk about how intuition is tapping into your own inner power and knowing, and it communicates through the physical, emotional, and spiritual body; and the role of trust and the need to take action on intuitive messages. Natalie and I deep dive into how to cultivate a relationship with your intuition, tools to help harness your intuition and how to cultivate trust within yourself.

Grab your oracle cards and get ready to nerd out with us on:

🔹The different ways intuition can show up, such as intuitive hits, downloads, and messages.

🔹The connection between intuition and fear/anxiety, and how fear can arise when intuition is asking us to do something big or outside of our comfort zone

🔹Where intuition resides in the body, with Natalie highlighting the heart as a significant center for intuition.

Today I want to talk about something we all deal with, body image. I know this can be a complex topic, especially in relation to the yoga and wellness industry. There is still a need for more diverse role models in this space and when it comes to body image; embracing your unique body and self-acceptance is a journey that requires ongoing effort.

 Let’s talk about:

 

🔹How yoga has shifted towards a performative sport rather than a personal practice.

🔹That clothing should enhance our authentic selves, not serve as a punishment.

🔹The importance of challenging societal norms around body image.

A lot of us struggle with shame, self-sabotage, and setting boundaries. I know I used to! Andrea Owen, author and life coach, is here to tell you the hard truth. That shame is inevitable in life and it's not going away. BUT, self-compassion, empathy, and mindfulness are key components of building shame resilience. We also talk about how personal growth ebbs and flows and setting boundaries is essential. Yes it can be challenging, but it is important to prioritize your own needs and well-being.

Listen in as Andrea explains:

 

🔹Shame as a normal and inevitable part of life, rather than something to be overcome.

🔹The connection between shame and behaviors such as people-pleasing and perfectionism.

🔹Strategies for building shame resilience, including self-compassion, empathy, and speaking shame.

Did you know that mantra activates the parasympathetic nervous system, and stimulates different parts of the body? Overall, mantra is seen as a vehicle for calming the mind, balancing the brain, activating the chakras, and connecting to universal consciousness. Today let’s delve into the Sa Re Sa Sa mantra from the Kundalini tradition, its meaning and benefits:

🔹The tongue stimulates meridian points in the mouth, which connect to the brain and activate different parts of the body.

🔹The Sa Re Sa Sa mantra from the Kundalini tradition is a powerful mantra that clears the central channel, opens the chakras, and brings wisdom of the past, present, and future.

🔹Mantra is a vehicle for calming the mind, balancing the brain, activating the chakras, and connecting to universal consciousness.

Dissect the stages of Yoga Nidra with me and my friend, Caley Alyssa. Together, we’ll dive into the emerging science behind deep yogic sleep. We’ll also provide tons of practical tips (hello, heated blanket!) as two busy moms and yoga teachers who practice Yoga Nidra regularly.

Discover: 

🔹 Misconceptions about the different brainwave states experienced during Yoga Nidra and how it’s NOT the equivalent of 2 -4 hours of sleep.

🔹 How Yoga Nidra works with the Koshas and affects melatonin production in your body. 

🔹 The importance of setting an intention or sankalpa and how it can be used to address limiting beliefs.

🔹 The distinct structure and phases that culminate to create a Yoga Nidra practice. 

We also cover – how long is “enough,” whether to practice in bed or on the floor, and all our hacks for propage. You’ll be excited to rest after this conversation.

Have you ever fallen into this trap? I know you’ve heard me talk about how as healers we have a hard time charging for our services, but there is another trap we easily fall into similar to this: OVERGIVING. Meaning, you are offering way more than you’re potentially charging for. This often comes from a place of insecurity, which is why showing up as your authentic self is so important.

 

Let’s explore:

🔹Overgiving can lead to feelings of resentment, depletion, and burnout.

🔹Setting boundaries and stating pure desires can help prevent over-giving.

🔹Focusing on quality over quantity is important in all areas of life.
