Wisdom of The Womb ft. Isadora Spearwoman

Have you ever felt out of touch with your body, not really knowing what to consume in order for you to feel (really) good? In our current western medicine system, we have developed many ways to look at how to treat diseases, yet we rarely ask the question of why the dis-ease was able to manifest in the first place. On this episode I'm speaking to Prerna, For her it has been an life-altering journey, from burning the candle at both ends living a fast-paced NYC modern life - getting sicker and sicker with different ailments and no-one able to explain why she wasn't getting better, to retiring in a clinic in India with Ayurvedic doctors, experiencing a type of re-birth in her entire being. Ayurveda is a game-changer, a +thousand-year old medicinal system that was developed around India.  It looks at our entire health, and as more & more westerners return to it - we are starting to see how far away we have been from source.

How often do you feel in-tune with your intuition, with your body? Where we are so used to navigating this world through utilizing our minds, our thinking space, it is but all too easy to lose touch with the infinite intelligence that the body holds. For those among us that harbor a womb (whether physically and/or energetically), this is especially true - we get to work with a wisdom that can create life and at the same time, this space is capable hosting our memories, our emotions. What do we get when we bring these 2 together? A bloody powerful tool for empowerment and transmutation. This is where Isadora Spearwoman (www.wombseedwisdom.com) comes in, a doula / (womb)spiral practicioner / female liberations' warrior. I've personally had the opportunity to work with her on the womb-spiral journey and it has and still is bringing me home in the sacred body from which I can share her work with you. Honored to be part of this movement is an understatement.

It’s in your tea, your Palo Santo, the herbs you put on your food; We all use herbs on a daily basis, but rarely take the time to feel into their origins, their strength and their spirit.  I talk to Janne from Third Pill Reflections, Janne is a herbalist, astrologist and in constant expansion on the topics of the Occult. This interview with Janne takes us deeper into the questions of: -Why there is such importance in creating a balanced relationship with nature -How to ask for permission when taking from her -What it means to be a witch And of course.. -How to start taking our first steps into the unseen..

Reiki; among practitioners and patients it is recognized as a Universal energy that truly anyone has access to when channelled correctly. Coming from Japan and becoming more and more popular in the west over the last decade, this form of healing has certainly shifted my own outlook on energy. As Marcia states on her website: 'It is a non-invasive & gentle, yet profoundly powerful healing modality that brings the body into deep states of parasympathetic activation and relaxation where your body does it’s best healing on all layers.  It is hard to define, and many have ranging experiences. Some are life-altering, some merely experience feel a vague sensation. Once again we find ourselves on the precipice of what is science, and what is spiritual. Truth is hard to define when it comes to energetic subtle energies.  The biggest unique quality is that the healer can be on another continent from the patient whilst in session.  Will you dare to try? 

When you think about spirits or even better, ghosts, what comes up for you? I remember first getting in touch with channeling and you could say I carried a verrrrry potent dose of skeptisism. The movies that I’d seen (movies like the Sixth Sense, The Excorcist, Paranormal Activity) all had a big part to play in how thought about the other realm. Now, partly through Nicole’s down-to-earth way of teaching, I understand there is much more that meets my previous understanding of spirits. This episode dives into exactly the things that we cannot know by our 5 senses, but we can start understanding through our intuition. Nicole is a shaminic priestess, a medium and a teacher that lives in The Netherlands, and in this episode she helps us understand what mediumship is, how we can know it’s not something that just takes advantage of people in mourning, and how to start working with it ourselves. That dose of skepticism? Still there. Only now it doesn’t block my expansion anymore. If navigated properly, it gets to fuel our curiosity.

Have you ever noticed yourself tense up when the camera-lens is upon you? ..I would be suprised if you answered this question with a no.

Where would you consider yourself on the spectrum of Science vs. Spirituality? Dr. Marc Greenstein walked both paths, both as a scientist and a spiritualist. Currently in Long Island, he now treats his visitors through a combination of all the knowledge and wisdom he attained, cultivating a unique way of looking at, and treating health. We touch upon acupuncture, yes, but the conversation turned out to be one about the many aspects of health as we start understanding there is more than ‘just’ the physical body.

When we are children, it seems like creativity is all around us. We imagine, we play, we pretend and create the strangest worlds. But as we grow older, we lose a big part of this curiosity and playfulness. It's better to fit in, assimilate. Kai Wilder is a painter/creator from Byron Bay, making ephemeral art that oozes layers of divine expression. How did he hold on to that magic that we all feel when we are children? As we get to pick his brain on creating magic, we find out that luckily, there are many ways in which we can learn to come back to that creativity.

A snakelike energy in the bottom of our spine that each of us can access via breath and movement? Meet Kundalini Yoga; A practice that creates a lot of activation in body & spirit, but now also is burdened by recent exposures of the community about one of the masters that brought it to the western world. To find out more about this type of yoga and the story behind it, I connected to Jay Moton, lifetime practicioner and fulltime teacher of Kundalini yoga in Los Angeles. What is this energy? And how are the accusations about this abuse connecting to an important theme of the current zeitgeist and our own spiritual paths?
