In this episode of the Soulful and Wild Show, Karen shares 2 simple processes to follow that will move you into a place where you can genuinely become your own guru. She says, it's important not to give your power away to others, that you do indeed know the answers to your own burning questions. She describes how to create inner stillness so that those special gems of insight can drop into your consciousness and also shares a process that she calls 'Golden Bodies' that she learnt in India - yes at an Ashram.  Some interesting concepts to consider here.

Working With The Moon

From a spiritual and energetic perspective most of us are comfortable with the concept that all things are connected. It's not a stretch to consider a link between the extreme weather we are seeing on the planet, and the destabilsation of bee colonies due to pests like varroa mite.

Both the planet and the bee hive are held to be feminine in nature, both are representative of the Goddess. Interestingly, we are taught to work with and treat our bee hives, in ways that might have been considered by the ancients to be somewhat barbaric .

Is it time to change things around now? Can we respond to the current bee crisis in a way that honourss and enables the resilience of the bees to shine through? Or have we gone too far?

Bees, Food Security and the Sacred Feminine

Making change, whether it is getting over the fear of public speaking or flying or trying to lose weight, change is a challenge for most of us.  So how do we do it? Obviously there are many ways, but here Karen shares a few key concepts to help you get yourself  'over the line' to the place that you want to be. No BS and no fluffy stuff, logic, common sense and a few cool tips to help you get there instead. She talks about weighing things up, stopping unhelpful thinking, and focussing on what you want and why that will help you get there. 

Here is the link [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTO94wJXQoc] to the snippet of Derren Brown's program, (Derren is a well known Mentalist) that she mentions in the podcast - it's definitely worth watching.

Making Change

I had the pleasure of catching up with Ashley Pilcher this morning and look forward to seeing some feedback from you on how you find this episode of the show. Ashley is what I would call a ‘shamanic healer’. He is also a Bowen Therapist, and runs regular sound healing baths and spiritually based breath work sessions for groups here in the local area, but also farther afield. Ashley has studied extensively in the shamanic space and walks his path with a depth of respect and trust in spirit that is both refreshing and wonderfully reassuring. You might hear him say “It grates my bones” and it was fun for me to discover exactly what it was that does that to him.

Topics like the interconnectedness of life, the importance of spirit in everything we do, what shamanism is, and what it is not were explored. There was some laughter and some travel down conversational side streets as we enjoyed the journey of our conversation with topics like, core and traditional shamanism, cultural theft (not quite the right word, but you’ll get what I mean), working with spirit for financial exchange, reciprocity, ritual when working with plant medicine and using the trance state. I particularly enjoyed hearing Ashleys interpretation of the ordinary and non-ordinary.

If you’d like to know more about Ashleys work you will find him on Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/AkunaBalanceandFlow/] and Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/akuna_balance_and_flow/] as Akuna Balance and Flow or look out for his events on Humanitix.

Shamanism

An informal chat with Nurse Practitioner Sue McSweeney on the breadth of colour puncture, (as opposed to colour therapy). We touch on the value of combining natural therapies like medical marijuana or aromatics to naturalise healing, and to maintain optimal health for patients with ongoing conditions like back pain.

Widely travelled and trained across an array of alternative healing therapies, Sue currently works in Hawaii and Massachusetts, and is in the process of setting up a private clinic where she will combine her skills in western and eastern medicine.

Intermittent Fasting for Health and Vitality

A great chat with Marie-Nicole Meunier prompted by the launch of her new ebook Empower Dressing which I thoroughly enjoyed. It was interesting to hear from her about things like;

 * how the colour and energy of your clothing can affect you 
 * curating a wardrobe with flow 
 * the symbology and intention of jewellery
