Episode 8: Law of Attraction
How amazing would it be if we could attract all that we've ever wanted? What if it only took "visualizing" what we want?
Well, it is not that simple and the universe is not a genie in a bottle waiting to fulfill your every desire.
Life doesn't work like a Disney movie!
So what is the law of attraction? How can I make it work in my favor? What does it take to create a better more fulfilled life?
Let's talk!

Episode 7: New Year's Resolutions
And naturally we are excited and optimistic about this new year!
For some, a new year means ending old projects or phases in our lives and starting new ones!
For others, it may mean the start of a new chapter.
Whatever you are dreaming of for this New Year, remember to set SMART goals and make a plan.
Did you know that 45% of the population makes New Year's Resolutions, but only 8% will accomplish them?
Which group will you fall into?
Why do resolutions lose gas as the year goes by?
Who started the idea of making resolutions for the New Year?
So much to explore.
So much to plan!
Lets conquer 2022 by being INTENTIONAL!

Bonus Episode: Full Moon in Gemini 2021
The moon, mother and ruler of our emotions and of the feminine energy, helps us put some POWER into our intentions.
Each phase of the moon brings a portal in which we can send our intentions.
The FULL moon is all about RELEASING.
This full moon in Gemini is the last full moon of 2021! What a great time to release and let go of things that no longer serve us. Starting on Saturday, December 18th, the full in Gemini invites us to take a look at the relationships and words we no longer want to carry with us into 2022. Gemini is dominate in communication and bonds. Which relationships do you see in your life as beneficial to your higher self? Which are not? Which do you want to take with you into 2022?
Tune in to find out how I release during Full moon phases and what rituals look like during this time.
Namaste.

Episode 6: Obsession and Excess
By keeping us fixated on things and people of this realm.
In order to elevate we must consume the temptations of this world in MODERATION.
Excess leads us to become obsessed.
Many different religions have written about the dangers of idolizing things and people and how to control our minds in order to TRANSCEND.
In this episode I explore the idea of becoming lighter by letting go of the things we obsess about.
Namaste!

Episode 5: Unlearning
Unlearning is the process of letting go of thoughts or behaviors that once used to support our old selves. Some of which are passed down passively from our family, friends and environments.
However, the more conscious you become and the more in control you wish to be in your life, you have to start questioning those thoughts or behaviors. You have to become ACTIVE in what information your brain stores. You must determine which information will help you be authentically you and which information is only there to support the imposter.
This episode explores how our brains work and how we can make better behaviors stick. How we can expose ourselves to different information that better serves who we wish to be.
Let's explore how we can become more authentically ourselves by way of unlearning!

Episode 4: Energy
When we go out into the world we also affect others because we are a collective. Our energy transfers into everyone we encounter and to everything we do. We tend to forget this and sometimes end up spreading negative feelings or contribute to negative energy. This can be devastating to our relationships or how things flow in our lives.
Within our vessels, our temples, our bodies we harness our energy. We have the 7 chakras that run up and down our spines. When those chakras are blocked or polluted we become stagnant. We may not experience joy, pleasure, good communication, compassion or we may not feel connected to the source. So it is important to know how to balance and cleanse our center storing chakras so that everything flows better in life.
What others think about us or the "vibes" they send our way can also make us feel attacked. These negative vibes can manifest into something called a psychic attack and it is important to know how you can protect yourself and how you block these psychic attacks.
Just like there is positive energy there is negative energy. In this new age metaphysical movement we see how so called witches or wizards try to take advantage of the lost souls all around us. They use spells or hexes to try to control others or change the course of a person's life. However, when you mess with energy you mess with the source. Whatever you send out to the universe you receive tens times stronger. It is important that we are mindful and conscientious as to the energy we put out and how we use our power source.
How can we cleanse our energy? Luckily our creator gifted us with tools that are meant to help us stay connected and balanced. What are those tools and how do we use them? I talk about that as well.
We are all connected and that fiber that connects us is energy.
Namaste!

Episode 2: Boundaries
Ahhh that trigger word!
We see it all the time.
We may even say it, more than we really understand what it means.
When you hear the word boundary why do you think?
A physical “thing”? Like a wall?
Or something more abstract? Like an emotional guard?
Saying no?
Boundaries are really…..all of those things.
They are a crucial part of our mental well being. They help define what we are willing to allow.
They are kind of like signs that say “ STOP 🛑! Check your energy before you come into this space”
And we should know what are boundaries are and when they are being crossed.
But what do we do when they are crossed?
How do I know what my boundaries are?
I wanna talk with you tonight to address those questions because I believe that the why’s and when’s of the topic of boundaries are just as important as having them.
It takes some self awareness and self realization to set healthy boundaries.
