#73 What the F is "Embodiment Work"? Juicy, simple ways to understand trauma, somatics and nervous-system

"At the end of the day, you're only taking with you what you've enjoyed. So do not forget to enjoy your life. I know that my father lived his life. So even though he died so young.. he was only 62.. he lived his life. He enjoyed, he travelled around the world, he had crazy adventures. He didn't die just saving for his retirement. He didn't die just waiting to spend the points in his credit card, the miles. He didn't die waiting for the trip of his life to happen. He didn't wait. He lived his life."In this solo episode I will share lessons, through stories - a memoir if you will - honouring a life fully lived:- A lesson that literally saved my life (5:22)-The True Power of Small Details (12:16)-How to welcome in MAGIC (15:53)-Life as a Canvas of Artistry (20:19)-Authenticity in Expression (25:24)-Embracing Life for the Joy of Living (30:23)-The Key to Living Liberated and Regret-Free Life (36:55)-What True Community Offers Us (44:51)-Embracing Enjoyment as Life's Ultimate Currency (52:10)-Being a Stand for Your Desires (55:41)As I look back on my father's life and legacy, I am filled with gratitude for the profound impact he had on shaping who I am today. This episode serves as both a homage to his remarkable spirit and an invitation for all of us to incorporate these cherished lessons into our lives. Even though I would have so much more to share about this now that more months have passed since his death, my prayer is that this memoir may serve as a powerful testament to the significance of living authentically, embracing every moment, and standing unwaveringly for what you desire, and give you some powerful reminders to lead you there too.If this Episode or any others within this season spoke to you, I welcome you to check out my upcoming Retreats in Australia (December 2023), Mexico (March 2024) and Egypt (May 2024).

"It's such a taboo still nowadays topic in our society, that we don't have the proper education and initiations and guidance into sacred, safe sexuality. Sexuality that's actually pleasure-lead, and not goal-oriented. So when we start having these conversations, it is really important that you ask yourself; if you want to really create a container where your sensual self can come online.. where you can fully allow all of you - the present, expanded, feeling version of you - to be present.. then what do you need?" In this solo episode, I dive into:Sensuality isn't linked to sexuality (2:21)What sensuality really is and how it can transform your life and relationships from the inside out + practices to get started (5:48)Do THIS to connect deeper with your own version of sensuality (11:47)Building true, deep intimacy (13:01)How to + why commit to your pleasure (22:01) Tune in to this episode and start your journey of reconnection with your sensual self, leading to a more vibrant, pleasure-filled, and empowered life.And if you want to dive deeper into this with us IN PERSON, check out our upcoming Retreats in Australia (December 2023), Mexico (March 2024) and Egypt (May 2024).
