Ruth sheds light on how individuals may unintentionally use mindfulness or meditation to avoid confronting trauma, rather than utilizing them as tools for growth. She eloquently explains the pitfalls of emotional avoidance, emphasizing the potential long-term harm it can inflict on daily choices. Ruth guides us through cultivating non-judgmental focused attention and introduces the power of "allowing phrases" to help us use mindfulness as a means of sitting with, rather than evading, our emotions. Join us for a profound exploration of therapeutic mindfulness and its transformative potential.

Today I’m doing something a little different on the show. A few weeks ago, I was a guest on an amazing radio show called Postcards to the Universe with Melisa Caprio and she was kind enough to share the recording with me. It’s much too long to play here, so I’ve edited together some bits of the first part where we talk about the root, sacral, solar plexus, and heart chakras, how they affect our day-to-day lives, our physical and emotional well-being, play a part in the manifesting and creation process, and why imbalances can appear.

This week we'll work on opening our heart chakras to allow energy to flow more freely. A blocked or stagnant heart chakra can cause us to feel off, and inhibit our ability to give and receive love in the way we want and need. There will be a little bit of physical movement to take advantage of how our physical bodies are inseperable from our more subtle bodies - emotional, mental, spiritual, astral.

Spiritual bypassing is the idea that we can use our spiritual practices to avoid doing the hard work of addressing earthly concerns. It can also mean putting on a happy, "good vibes only" persona so that we don't have to experience our hard, painful emotions. It's normal to want to feel better right away, but true growth and self-care only comes from honestly addressing our reality. We'll also talk about the community responsibility we have to one another and why we can't spiritually bypass our way out of injustice.

I am back this week with part two of the episode on energy leaks from your chakras. You don’t need to go back and listen to episode 178 before this one – I’ll do a quick review , but once we’re finished here, you may want to go back and listen to learn about leaks in the upper four chakras. A chakra leak can decrease our power to heal and balance ourselves. Within the chakra system, the Sanskrit word for energy is shakti, and it translates to power, capacity, strength and it means the power, capacity, and strength to do our inner work within each chakra. If we’re leaking energy out of the chakra, we won’t have enough to do what needs to be done there to be balanced. Use this episode to think about whether or not you’re letting your power in a chakra seep out of you and I’ll give you some ways to know if you are, and some ideas on how to stop those leaks if needed so you can focus your energy on healing.

This week's breathwork is a cooling breath, especially useful for settling intense emotions when you're feeling overwhelmed. It's designated a feminine breath - remember to listen to episode 170 if you're curious about that term - and will affect all of the associated chakras, particularly the sacral. Use it any time you need a moment of calm in your day.

Today we’re talking about energy using the definition “our power to do inner work” (a close translation of the Sanskrit word shakti) and how we might be leaking that energy from our chakras. We'll discuss the ways in which we lose energy - our power - through these centers and lose our ability to do inner work there. This is important to be know because if we leak all of our power to do this work, we lose our ability to heal ourselves. You'll learn what an energy leak looks like in each of these four chakras (Crown, Third Eye, Throat, and Heart) as well as how to stop the leaks. We'll also talk about the difference between "blocks" and "leaks," as well as how you can have both at the same time.

Today I’ve got the first in a new series I’m working on about spiritual practices that don’t always seem like spiritual practices. Every few weeks, I’ll share on a topic that can expand what we think of as spiritual practices. As the saying goes, we’re spiritual beings having a human experience - everything we do is part of our spiritual development. First up, we’ll start with sexual healing as a spiritual practice. It’s a conversation I had with sex therapist Heather Shannon, where we explore the idea that our sexuality isn't just linked to the sacral chakra, or even the heart chakra. Rather, our entire energy system is affected by our sexual health.

This week’s mindfulness technique is a cooling or soothing breath. This breath, sitali pranayama, cools down the body and the mind which means it’s very good for reducing anxiety. You can use it whenever you’re feeling stressed – just a few rounds will make a big difference.

Self-love can feel so complicated and out of reach. So, introducing...self-like! It's the low-key, no-committment, let's-just-see-where-this-goes version that might just allow us to pursue self-love one day. Or not. Either way is fine! Today we'll talk about what self-like could be and a few ways to see if it works for you. No stigma, no pressure, no labels. Just friends :)

It's another listener request episode! Today we’re talking about grounding, generally what we think of as a root chakra aspect. And the question was essentially “what IS grounding?” It's such a common thing to say, but rarely does anyone offer an explanation of what that means or what it might feel like or how to do it beyond "do a grounding meditation." I want to talk through these questions today and then give you some practical ideas, hopefully at least one you haven’t tried!

Join me as I stumble through the oft-negelcted right of the Third Eye Chakra - To Be Seen. We'll talk a little more about self-sabotage (see Episode 168 for the first exploration of this) and how that can show up in our lives when we're afraid to be our authentic selves, let people see us for who we truly are, and fear of success.

We hear about shadow work all the time and that we need to be doing it, but if my DMs are any indication, a lot of us are confused about what exactly shadow work is, who should do it, and how to do it. It can also be a little unclear how it relates to the chakras, if at all. Today's episode aims to clear it all up and give you a primer on what shadow work could look like in your life and in your healing/integration journey.

In this episode, we're talking about a method of healing you night not have considered or know much about - psychedelics. Yes, these are generally illegal in the United States, but rest assured we are talking about legal use, or pre-illegal use. Dr. Jahan Khamsehzadeh is an academic, a researcher who studies psilocybin, the compound found in mushrooms and other plants that can have hallucinogenic effects. We’re talking about the history of plant use in indigenous tribes, and the impact these plant medicines may have had on the development of consciousness as we know it. We’ll also get into the current legal research that’s being done all over the world and how psychedelics are being used to treat depression, anxiety, addiction, and even PTSD. It’s a fascinating conversation, but if you don’t care to hear about these substances, then just skip over today’s episode and I’ll see you next week!

In the beginning, it was all energy - there was no divide, no hierarchy, and no labels. And then someone got the idea to divide types and styles of energy into feminine and masculine and it's been downhill ever since. Okay, that might be a bit dramatic, but the elevation of certain human traits over others and the assigning of general traits to individuals based on gender assumptions is not doing the world any favors. Today we'll talk about the origin of the terms, how various energy types show up, and why it's so important to balance "masculine" and "feminine" energy styles in our chakra systems. We'll break it down by chakra and discuss how the misunderstanding and misapplication of these terms is causing disharmony between us and within ourselves.

Today I sit down with Swami Nityananda to talk about spiritual freedom – what that is, what it can mean, what it can look like – and a lot of the conversation is around being able to have inner peace, joy, and connection even when the world is falling down around you. Even when it feels like your insides are crumbling. It's an invitation to approach ourselves and others with compassion and learn how to connect light to light. We explore what the saying "We Are All One" might actually mean and how we can respect both our universal energy and individual bodies. Swami Nityanda teaches non-dual awareness, which is simply the practice of being aware that there is truly no separation between us, a philosophy that can guide us toward peace and empathy.

Today’s topic has been on my mind for a couple of months now as I find myself struggling to do the things I want to do or get done. Does that ever happen to you? You really want to do something, but you can’t find the motivation or you do things that seem to be in exact opposition to what you’re trying to do? It’s self-sabotage. In yoga, there are three types of self-sabotage and they show up in three chakras - the solar plexus, the heart, and the third eye. We'll talk about what they are, why they happen, signs you may be experiencing them, and of course, what to do to start healing.

Play isn't something we need to abandon when we grow up! However, it can be hard to imagine exactly what it looks like in a life of responsibility. Today Alara Sage guides us through the process of reawakening our innate sense of play to access bliss, joy, love, and peace while healing our nervous system and releasing stored trauma. By unlocking our creativity with play, we can open our sacral, heart, and third eye chakras to allow us to expand into our most authentic, vibrant self!

Let's slow down the physical practice of yoga this week and talk about some alternatives to fast-paced classes. We'll cover Restorative, Yin, Iyengar, and Kundalini practices - perhaps lesser known but equally valuable! And as always, I'll remind you that physical postures are not the only way to practice the philosophy of yoga and that in all our asana classes, we're looking to incorporate the other limbs of yoga as well (the breath, meditation, etc.). This is part two of the mini-series, so if you're interested in learning more about Hatha, Ashtanga, Power, and Vinyasa yoga classes, check out episode 164.

It's a listener request episode! I'm going to go over a few different types of yoga asana (poses or postures, a physical practice) that you might see on a yoga studio schedule or in the name of a YouTube video. I'll share what you can expect in the practice, some benefits of each, and who each type might be good for. Hopefully having this information will help you decide what kind of yoga class is right for you!
We'll also talk about how the broader philosophy of yoga isn't limited to just physical postures, what we think of in the West as "yoga." Instead, it is a life practice that anyone can participate in in a wide variety of ways!

Let's talk about something awkward today, shall we? It's money. And I know we're not supposed to talk about it, certainly not as people interested in a spiritual path, but the fact is we do need money (or the energetic currency we call money) to survive in the physical world. Beliefs around money that get created when we're children and reinforced when we're adults can cause trauma to the Root Chakra that may be impacting you in ways you don't even realize. Today we'll start to tease out the difference between the value of a dollar and the value of a person - seems obviously, but it's definitely trickier than it appears at first glance!

Acceptance is a heart chakra aspect and can refer to accepting all kinds of things - the Self, the Moment, the Past, and more. It isn't about tolerating what we accept, though. It's about having a realtionship with the truth that allows us to be open to change and growth, if we want it.

Can anger be used for healing? In Dr. Mate's book, The Myth of Normal, he says it not only can, but must be. We'll talk this week about how anger shows up in our lives (or doesn't, if you suppress it) and why it might be your process of dealing with anger that causes trauma, not the anger itself. Of course, we'll talk about healthy ways to experience and process anger that will lead us toward more balanced sacral chakras and energy systems overall. And I touch on long-term anger that can fuel action and why I want to be a person that gets angry about some things.

Agency is directly related to the Solar Plexus Chakra basic right of being able to act on your own behalf for your highest good. We'll learn how the skill of responding allows us to be sure we're showing up in the world in a way that aligns with our energy and values, as well as how we can have agency even when we don't have control of our circumstances. We'll also revisit boundaries (see episodes 44, 147, and 148 for more) and why a considered "yes," even when it is uncomfortable is authentic and important.

One of the most common questions I get is "how do I start?" We want to start healing, start a spiritual journey, start manifesting, start something. And knowing where to begin can be confusing and overwhelming. Today I want to offer a first step in the healing process, adapted from Dr. Gabor Mate's work in his book, The Myth of Normal (if you haven't read it, I can't recommend it highly enough). Of course, I filter these ideas through the lens of the chakra system, and his first "A" of four lines up perfectly with our Root Chakra Work around becoming our most authentic, true, highest self.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageIf you've ever been interested in manifesting, you've probably heard that positive thinking is the only way to go, and if you don't get what you want, it's your fault. Today we'll talk about how that's not even close to the truth. Negative thinking is normal and natural and unavoidable - so we just need to learn to use it to our advantage! When you understand WHY negative thoughts are showing up, you can start to use them to enhance your creation process. "Positive thinking" every minute of every day isn't realistic for most of us, but it doesn't need to hinder our efforts to create the life we want to live, both inside and out.

We talk about five of the main lessons she brought back to us from the other side (Spoiler: You Are Deathless!) and her mission to help change the conversation around death. We touch on some sensitive topics including religious trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and a very brief mention of eating disorders. Please show yourself compassion if these kinds of things upset you, and maybe listen to a different episode. As always, nothing is graphic or detailed, but you know yourself best.

We talk about how Ayurveda looks to approach the ROOT of a problem, not just the symptoms, and what the connection between the moon and our moon cycle is.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageHow do you feel today? And how do you feel about feeling that way? It's an Inception-style question that seems like it could go on forever - a phenomenon known as "meta-emotions." In the Chakra world, it's when we take our emotions out of our bodies, out of our Sacral Chakras, and let our heads and Third Eye Chakras get involved. Sometimes that's okay - even good! - because we get to act as a witness to our thoughts and emotions, giving us a little space and preventing overwhelm. However, other times we simply add to our discomort by telling ourselves stories about what our emotions mean, or should mean. Today we'll talk about how these meta-emotions develop, how they can bring unnecessary suffering into our lives, and what we can do about them (not how to get rid of them, since they're a part of the human experience!).

It's holiday time...again. And whether you love or hate the holidays, they tend to cause a lot of stress for a lot of reasons. Today's episode is a replay of part of a 2020 talk I did on manifesting a holiday experience, starting at the Crown Chakra and going down to the Root Chakra. It's not to create a perfect evening or event, rather to help you create space in yourself for ALL your feelings, accepting the reality of life, and then energetically shifting that reality towards something that will be more positive for you.
Exciting news: I'm introducing my newest course, Chakra Balancing for Weight Loss, available in January of 2023! It's not a diet, meal plan, or exercise plan, though. It's a course on shifting your energy towards a more self-loving, self-compassionate way of being, which is truly the only way to be healthier and happier. In addition, my other courses on Manifesting will be available in an all new format, and of course, the Chakra Basics course is still free (and always will be!). The website for more information and to sign up will be live soon!

This week is part two of my interview with Jen Moore, and empath and author who helps other empaths understand themselves and how to deal with the world. Last week we talked about what exactly an empath is, the unique challenges of existing in the world while feeling others emotions as your own, and why we can all benefit from moving towards empathy whether we identify as an empath or not, and today we’re talking about boundaries. This is another word, like empath, that gets used a lot, but we don’t always know what it means. Jen takes us through how to set boundaries that are useful and flexible and grow with us, and also how to avoid violating other people's boundaries in an attempt to make ourselves feel better, especially if you’re an empath. I do want to let you know that we briefly discuss eating disorders and suicide, so please take care when listening if these are triggering for you.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageEmpath - the word gets thrown around a lot, but what does it actually mean? Do empaths even exist? This week, I'm talking to Jen Moore, author of Empathic Mastery about what an Empath is and the difference between being an empath and having empathy. We'll discuss the history of the word and the experience, why it's coming to the forefront of our consciousness at this particular time in the world, and whether you might be an empath yourself.
This is a two-part interview, so stay tuned for next week when we'll discuss boundary setting for everyone, not just empaths! If you're interested in learning more about Jen and her work, you can go to www.empathicmastery.com or www.empathicmasterybook.com.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageThis week I want to introduce you to Lion Goodman - subconscious pattern detective, belief therapist, and healer of the psyche. His work centers around clearing our limiting beliefs so that we can create the life we want to live. We'll talk about what a limiting belief is, where they come from, how to identify them, and what to do about it when you find one. We also talk about the kinds of limiting beliefs that can live in each chakra. Lion hosts free monthly events to help us clear beliefs around money, relationships, health, work, family, and more. You can find out more about those and register at www.beliefrelief.net. Other ways to find out more about Lion's work:

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageIt's time to talk about the final stress response of the series - the Fawn Response. In the fawn response, we’re trying to diffuse a dangerous situation, but not in a way that is helpful to us. It's one of the least studied responses, but one that I think a lot of us use and will recognize. When we fawn, we're trying to placate our aggressor at the expense of our own mental and emotional health. It can look like being overly agreeable, people pleasing, or even abandoning our authentic Self - things that fall squarely within the realm of the Sacral Chakra. We'll talk about ways to keep the sacral Chakra balanced, and mindful use of the fawn response to create and keep our emotional boundaries, while making space for our true, authentic self to grow and express.

It's time to talk about the Freeze Response - the Throat Chakra's reaction to stress. Freeze isn’t complicated. We’re faced with a threat and we freeze. Physically we take no action. We don’t say anything. It’s as if our bodies have shut down, that any message from the brain that we’re in danger and might do something about it never gets translated to the body. We start to take up less energetic space, maybe even physical space, our heart rates slow, and we start to feel detached, like we’re not even there. Or you may experience sudden exhaustion or feeling of heaviness. If any of this sounds like how you respond to stress, this episode will help you understand yourself a little better and give you some tools to help get you back into your body and situation when freezing isn't a useful response.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageToday we're talking about the Flight response to stress! This is a very common response and can show itself as avoiding, distracting, and procrastinating. We'll learn about how this response might be useful when confronted with a physical danger, but how the emotional and mental dangers that we most often encounter in our modern lives can't be run from.
This stress response is based in fear and lives in the Root Chakra. When we're unbalanced here or chronically stressed, the blocks that we experience could even be holding us back from owning our true self and living authentically. We'll discuss two ways to help reduce our stress perception - facing and grounding - and why it's so important that we do so as soon as possible (no procrastinating!)

Today we’re talking about the sympathetic nervous system stress response. You might have heard this called fight or flight, to which we'll add freeze and fawn in the upcoming weeks. We'll talk about all of these stress responses - why they happen, why they’re great (and not so great), as well as which chakras might be imbalanced by them if we’re in a constant state of stress arousal. And I’ll give you some techniques to help soothe the stress response and rebalance the chakra.
First up is our Fight response, a solar plexus chakra imbalance, and it doesn't just include physical combat. The fight response can include harsh words, sarcastic comments, and more. We'll learn why this almost never makes us feel better long term, the hormones and energy imbalances responsible for returning our bodies to a calmer state, and some "in the moment" techniques to disperse the fight instinct.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageI'm finally answering my most asked question - how can I do chakra work with my child? As someone who is absolutely not an expert on parenting or child development, I hesitated to answer this until I realized that the parent/child relationship is just that - a relationship. And all relationships benefit from us doing our energetic work. I'll go over some broad ideas for how to introduce energy work to your children, as well as touch on a few specific chakras and how they're impacting by our pasts and our current parenting styles.
And if you don't have children, don't worry - these concepts can help strengthen any relationship by deepening our understanding of ourselves and humanity.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageHow many of us are holding on to old stories, old thoughts, old feelings that are holding us back in the present moment? My guess is almost all of us! In the Full and Waning Moon episodes, I mentioned using rituals to let go of those things and in today's episode I elaborate on what those might be. We'll talk about how you can use elements, color, writing, nature, and a variety of other things to create your own ritual for letting go. I'll give you some examples of rituals I do that you can use as the structure to make them your own.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageThis week wraps up the Lunar Cycle and Your Chakras series with the Waning Moon. This is the time when the moon starts to grow dark in the sky and we have the opportunity to reflect on the work we've done and begin to draw inward towards rest. This autumnal season is a time of change and growth, of detail and reconnecting.
The chakras associated with this phase of the moon are the Root, Solar Plexus, and Crown chakras so we'll discuss why, as well as some ways to use the moon's natural energy to balance and recharge your personal energy system.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageToday we're talking about everyone's favorite part of the lunar cycle - the Full Moon! As we touch on this magical time, you'll learn about how you can use the Sacral, Heart, and Throat chakras for relationship building, manifesting, and letting go of some pain and finding more self-compassion. We'll also talk about how the yang, or masculine, energy exists within the overall yin, or feminine, energy of the Moon overall. Just because there are times when one type of energy is more present doesn't mean we lose the other. The Moon is still there when the Sun is out, and vice versa.
This is a time of peak creativity and a time to see the results of the seeds you've planted and nurtured during the previous two weeks of the lunar cycle. And the third day of the Full Moon sets us up for release and rest. I'll be posting journaling prompts on the Patreon page that you can use to really harness the power of the Moon with your Chakras.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageToday we’re discussing the second basic phase of the lunar cycle, the waxing moon. This process of the moon appearing to get fuller in the sky takes place on days about 4-12 of the cycle. It's seasonal association is Spring, a time of new life, growth, and creation.
The associated chakras here are the root, sacral, and solar plexus, the lower chakras responsible for drawing the upper energy of the New Moon down into the physical plane and manifesting your ideas. We'll also continue the discussion of working with the natural rhythms of the earth and how to stay balanced throughout each lunar cycle.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageWe begin a new series this week on how to use the Lunar Cycle to benefit your chakra work. We'll go over the four basic phases of the Moon, what they represent energetically and seasonally, as well as which chakras are associated with each and why. I'll also offer some practices to help align our chakras with the natural energies of the world.
We start with the New Moon, a dark, quiet, healing energy associated with the sacral, third eye, and crown chakras. Learn why rest is so important during this time and how to tap even more deeply into your intuition and avoid emotional overwhelm.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageToday we're talking about the practice of "setting an intention" before yoga class - why we do it, what it is, and how we can use it to bridge the divide between what we do on the mat and off. We'll also discuss how and why we might set an intention in our chakra balancing and healing practices, since we know that yoga isn't just physical postures - it's a lifestyle that we live, not just something that we do.
This powerful tool can be life changing, and open you up to growth and expansion, even if you never set foot in a yoga studio or do any postures or classes at all!

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageToday we're talking about Pranayama, the fourth limb of the eight-limbed Ashtanga Yoga system. Pranayama translates to breath control, and it truly is a superpower that you can carry with you everywhere to reduce stress, calm your nervous system, and clear your chakra energy system. The research showing the physical benefits of proper breathing is unquestioned and the ancient sages created a variety of techniques for us to use to access all of them, as well as the mental, emotional, and spiritual benefits of breath mastery.
I'll go over three specific types of pranayama: the foundational yogic breath, Dirga Pranayama (three part, or complete breath), and Sama Vritti Pranayama (equal breath), giving you directions and opportunity to practice so you can feel the changes in your body. I'll also be posting videos of the practices on the Patreon page so you can have a visual reference if that's helpful to you. Happy breathing!

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageWe're exploring the concept of Self-Care today and why it might not be exactly what we've been told it is. Society would like us to believe that self-care can be purchased in the form of wine, fancy candles, and chocolate, and that it should be 100% feel good all the time. The truth is, though, that if we want to truly care for our mental, emotional, physical, and yes, spiritual health, self-care is a lot more involved and (at times) uncomfortable than that. But that's where the true change lies, the self-care that creates long-term peace and happiness. Join me as we dig deep on exploring limiting beliefs, setting boundaries, and understanding ourselves better. You know, REAL self-care.

Today we examine the final set of values in this series - the Crown Chakra values of Spirituality, Peace, and Freedom. I hope this series has helped you identify what’s important in your life and given you some ideas on how to prioritize it. When we make a list of the things that matter, and a list of how we spend our time each day, values help us ensure that the majority of our time is spent supporting the important things. As we get closer to that and closer to living our truth, the better life is. We become more whole, more in alignment with ourselves and the universe. And isn’t that really the point of all this chakra work?

It's the second to last episode in our Chakra Values series and we're taking a look at the principles that live in the third eye chakra - intuition, wisdom, and growth. I'll also take a moment to discuss why I choose to associate personal values with each chakra. They can certainly be used apart from the chakra system but since we're using it as a framework to determine where we feel good and where we don’t, and do the deep work of determining who we want to be as humans, who have struggles and joys and want to live truthfully and authentically, it only makes sense to blend the two.
I'll share with you my second most important personal value and how I came to it - how it chose me, rather than the other way around, and why. Value work, especially when combined with chakra work, is when my life started changing in a positive direction that I could see and feel.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messagePersonal values are guideposts for us. They help us discover more about who we want to be and how we want to get there. When we know what is important to us, we can build that life by focus on specific chakra work because we know what decisions we want to make, the choices that lead us closer to our highest self. The other thing this work does is let us know where we’re struggling. If we have a vague sense of discontent, general unhappiness, we might be able to identify the source of it if we learn to recognize what missing in our lives. Value studies can help us get specific on our energy centers that need attention to help us feel balanced.
Today we center our efforts on communication, self-expression (and the difference between them), and co-creation (how it differs from manifesting). The throat chakra is a vital energy center for finding and allowing our authentic selves to exist fully in the world.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageOur lives are a reflection of what we value, whether we like it or not, each moment is a culmination of the choices we’ve made. But sometimes our personal values that get subverted by other people’s expectations of what we should value, or society’s demands, or we even do it to ourselves. But we have the opportunity here to really define what matters to us and then, holding that knowledge, actively thinking about it and using it daily, we’ll see our lives start to transform into a reality that shows those values.
Today we're discussing the Heart Chakra values of Gratitude, Forgiveness, and Truth - three big ones that live in our central energy center. Let's look deeply at each one, how it might impact our lives, and if we need to bring that value to the forefront to start living authentically and moving towards our highest self.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageWelcome to the fourth in the series on Chakra Values! These are like filters for our lives, helping us know when we're moving closer to our highest self, and when we're not - and if that's the case, being consciously aware of our choices. Knowing this helps us live in alignment with ourselves, which is where peace, happiness, and contentment come from.
Finding just three values that live in the Heart Chakra proved too difficult, so I've split this one up into two parts. This week we'll talk about love (boundless, limitless, and unconditional), kindness (not to be confused with being nice), and hope (the complicated balance between wishing for things to change and being present in the moment). Living in our Heart Chakra space is, in my opinion, one of the most important skills we can develop, so let's get to work seeing if any of these values resonate deeply with you!

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageAfter a break for the US holiday, we're back with the third in our Chakra Values series. We’re trying to identify what is the most important to us and then spend most of our energy there, finding what gets us closer to what we value, gets us closer to our truest nature. And even though we’re going through three or four values or ideals for each chakra, leaving us with well over 20 things to consider, not all of them can be the most important. What we’re trying to do is figure out the top one, two, MAYBE three, and focus there.
This week we’re at the solar plexus chakra. It governs self-will, self-empowerment, and is the part of us that takes action. We'll be focusing on self-respect, achievement, and personal fulfillment. I'll share some of my personal struggles here and how we can determine if we're really acting on our truth or if we're allowing society or other people in our lives push us away from it.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageWhat is a value and why is it so important that we talk about them right now? They’re a lens, a filter to use when you’re making choices. Does this choice contribute to my values, or does it not? When you look at what is in your life right now, you can see what you value. The good news is we can select our values, we can explore our values and then make a choice to live into them. A good way to start is by selecting a single value, maybe one for each chakra, maybe one that you’ll work on each week of this series, and consciously use it as a filter for your decisions. And notice if you’re moving closer to embodying that value or farther away from it.
This week we'll talk about the Sacral Chakra values of relationships, creativity, and pleasure, discuss how each one manifests in our lives and what it means if it is truly a core component of our being.

When we’re setting goals or trying to figure out what we want to be when we grow up, one of the first things I’ve always been asked to do is define my personal values, but I never really understood how to limit what I value, or clarify what I value. But recently I’ve been thinking about values as they relate to our chakras and when we understand what the chakras contain, and where we are in our lives and what we need, it’s easier for me to understand what my values are. Chakra work can help create the framework to understand and articulate what is most important, and how to align how we’re living with what we say is the most important to us. Generally, humans are most at peace, happiest, when what they say and do is in alignment with the things that matter most to them.
We'll start today with the Root Chakra. We’ll talk about what it holds, what values live there, and how to find movement toward balance in the energy center through the choices we make in life.

Today is the final episode about planetary connections to the chakras – the third eye and crown chakras, the two uppermost chakras in our common 7 chakra chain. The upper chakras tend to have more than one planet that’s associated with them, and that holds true for these last two as well. The Third Eye Chakra is closely associated with Jupiter, a planet of luck, good fortune, and possibilities. It is also said to be connected to Saturn, and we'll discuss that, too. The Crown Chakra is associated with the Moon (not technically a planet, but a celetial body), intuition, feminine energy, and the Divine. It is also said to be affected by Saturn and Jupiter! We'll talk about why we have multiple planet associations and finding the connections that work best for each of us.

We’re back this week with the second in the series of Planetary connections to the chakras. Last week I told you a little about my reasoning for looking into this and today I wanted to expand a little on using the information. We'll talk about how to learn what the planets are doing on any given day, connect them to your chakras, and develop energy work that takes advantage of the natural patterns in the world. We've also got a discussion on the planetary connection to the Heart Chakra - Venus, or the Moon, depending on the tradition - and the Throat Chakra - Saturn, or Mercury. I'll share a brief explanation of why there can be multiple associations and when using one might be more beneficial to you than another based on your needs.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageToday we’re going to talk about the planet associated with each of the lower chakras - the Root, Sacral, and Solar Plexus. While many people are aware of several chakra aspects (color/element/etc.), the planetary connection is a little lesser known. It can be very useful to clarify situations when usual methods aren't providing answers! The three pairs we'll discuss today are the Root Chakra and Mars, Sacral Chakra and Mercury/Venus, and the Solar Plexus Chakra and the Sun. We'll also discuss why there are connections and how to use the information in your life!

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageEvery week in the intro I say that we’re going to explore how the chakra system can "lead you closer to your highest self." I’m often purposefully vague about what that is because I think that it’s important that we each make that determination for ourselves. However, I was working with a client last week who wanted a more detailed explanation of exactly WHAT the highest self is. If we don’t define that, how do we know if we’re closer? Or even on the right track? And will we know if we’re there? As I thought about how to answer her without stifling her imagination, I realized that there were so many answers that the concept might deserve it’s own podcast episode. And here we are. Let’s explore the idea of what your highest self is, or could be.

Representing your connection to both the earth and universe, the past and future, the physical and spiritual, we'll explore what this ancient system calls the Path of Life. This is the pair responsible for health and vitality, not just physical health, but emotional, mental, and spiritual health as well. Importantly, this pair shows us that connection to the divine, to ourselves, and to others is how we fully experience this life. This connection is inescapable, yet a healthy root/crown pairing lets us hold on the the love and the lesson while letting go of any pain we may have from previous chakra trauma.

Today we talk about the second of the chakra pairings in the Celtic tradition: the Throat and Sacral Chakras. Together, they are considered the Path of Wisdom, so we'll talk about what exactly wisdom is and how it differs from knowledge. Imbalances in these chakras are really common and today you'll learn what some of those imbalances are and what healthy, balanced chakras look and feel like in you. We'll talk about emotions and expression, and why creativity might be the missing component in connecting with your highest self.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageOur conversation today has us addressing the first of three pairs of chakras - the Heart and Solar Plexus Chakras. We'll use the Celtic Chakra tradition (rather than the Hindu tradition that you might be most familiar with) to discuss the spiral path, why and how certain chakras are paired, and why it might be time to start your balancing practice somewhere other than your Root Chakra. The first pair concerns the Heart Path, or the Path of Vocation, and we'll talk about how aligning your actions with your heart's truth is the first step toward inner peace and creating a life you love living.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageWe've reached the Crown Chakra in our first series of 2022! The crown chakra is the least physical of the seven main chakras, so I know it can feel less important. However, I encourage you to spend at least a little time on it since it really does impact all the other energy centers and how we experience the physical world. Today we talk about what the ego is, why we need it, and what it really means to transcend, surrender, or quiet the ego. The ego is the collection of traits that make up our personalities, and the goal isn't to get rid of those traits, it's to see how and why they fit into the larger picture and to understand what it means to be present in the physical and spiritual planes while not being overly attached to either one. It's a big episode with a lot of ideas!

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageWhat does it mean to "open your third eye" and why should we bother? Today we're discussing the importance of a clear and bright third eye chakra and the gift of perspective and clarity that it brings us. In addition to its reputation for mystical properties, the sixth energy center can also help us see truth, our personal path, and give us the strength to follow it even when it might be easier to go with the flow. I also talk about two ways to create balance in your third eye chakra and why developing these practices is so important.

So today, we're taking a moment for lovingkindness in the world. It's a short meditation - one that you can do any time for any reason. I know it's a small action, but let's pull our collective consciousess together for peace, both in ourselves and in the world.
May all beings everywhere be filled with lovingkindness
May all beings everywhere be well in body and mind
May all beings everywhere be safe from inner and outer dangers
May all beings everywhere be at ease and peaceful

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageOur Throat Chakras are the seat of communication and expression, but sometimes we simply need silence to hear our own truth before we can speak it into the world. This week I share my experience with relatively long stretches of silence - unexpected silence - and how different it is to choose quiet, rather than having it chosen for you. Silence is healing and can help us clarify what we truly want to share outside and what we want to hold internally.

Self-love may be the struggle I hear about most, and frequently we look to the Root Chakra, but today we'll explore the the heart's role in giving and receiving love internally. So many of us have a gaping hole where our true selves should be. We'll talk about why that is, how culturally that can be the expectation, and what we can do to start reframing our thoughts around our own worth. Let's start to find the seed of our highest self and nuture it to grow and blossom!

She explains a little about what these ancient practices are, where they took her and where they might take us, as well as how to begin incorporating these healing modalities into our lives. If you practice yoga, you might have heard of the concept of prana - life force. Qi Gong is a breath practice that has a similar foundation, adding gentle movement connected to breath. Tai Chi takes the movement further into a more physical practice, but both are healing to the body and mind. Rubia tells us how to get started and is offering you free access to her online course, Qi Gong for Grounding!

Just known something in your gut - more primal than intuition? That's the work of your Solar Plexus Chakra. This third energy center is in a highly unique position to collect information from your physical body *and* your energetic body to to create the gut instinct, a reliable guide about our surroundings. IF the Solar Plexus Chakra is balanced, of course. Today we talk about why this energy center is so valuable in this way, how it might be unbalanced, and three ways to bring it back into balance to help develop rock solid instincts.

It's an exploration of love and the Sacral Chakra this week! So much of the time, we contract our sacral energy and there isn't room to experience all the love and joy that is present in the world and in our relationships. When we're self-sabotaging or even attracting relationships we don't want, it's because our capacity to feel love and joy is diminished in an underactive Sacral Chakra. Today we'll talk about why we might be doing this subconsciously, why it's important to increase our ability to feel positive emotions, and how we can take a first step towards a healthier Sacral Chakra.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageWelcome to the first series of 2022! We're going to get back to some of the foundational information about each chakra either to help you understand it for the first time, or to guide you to think about your energy centers in a new way. We begin with the Root Chakra, the seat of grounding, strength, security, and self-worth. If you've ever struggled with knowing your value - and really, who hasn't? - your root chakra likely needs some attention. The good news is that you almost certainly have the strength and courage you need just waiting for you to access it in your Muladhara Chakra! We'll explore why and how to begin feeling your intrinsic value, not just on an intellectual level, but in your energetic body.

We're starting the year with a fascinating interview with Indra Rinzler, a Vedic Astrologer, healer, and teacher. He has been studying astrology for 50 years and uses that modality, along with another called the Enneagram of Personality. A lifelong spiritual seeker, Indra's focus is to help us wake up to who we really are, to help people live beyond their conditioned stories, and live more in the moment.
We talk about these techniques and how they work with the Wheel of Totality to create a life reading. If you're interested in more information about what Indra does or connecting with him, you can go to www.indrarinzler.com or join him on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/indra.rinzler/).

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageAs the whole world turns the page into a new year, I thought we'd look back at what we did this year in terms of improving our physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual wellness through our chakra work and other modalities. How was your year? Let's look back and find the bright spots and then shine that light on where we can go in the future.
While our chakra system is holistic and each energy system impacts all the others, we'll break down which chakras can have the most impact on each aspect of our wellness: physical (root, solar plexus), emotional (sacral, heart), mental (throat, third eye), and spiritual (crown). We'll talk about why those are impacted, what that can look like, and then start to imagine ways that we can find the balance and peace we're looking to cultivate.

Let's talk about auras! What are they, what do they represent, why should we bother even looking at them? And how do we look at them anyway? Today we explore the seven most commonly accepted layers of the aura and how they are correlated with the chakra system. We'll talk about what they mean, what they represent beyond our physical bodies, and what an imbalance or "discoloration" might mean for you and your spiritual journey.
Learn about the physical body, emotional body, mental body, astral body, spiritual body, cosmic body, and the integrated spiritual body and their corresponding chakras. We'll finish with a discussion of how you can learn to see your own aura and other ways to get an idea of what your energetic body looks like.

It's the fifth and final niyama - ishvara pranidhana. The translation is "surrender to god," and today we'll explore how we can navigate the seemingly negative connotations of the word "surrender" and the sometimes tricky concept of a western god. In the end, this niyama asks us to trust that we are part of a larger consciousness and that we are always where we need to be for the next step on our path. Surrendering is learning how to give away the things that are causing us unnecessary suffering, not giving up on our ideals and values. The practice of Ishvara Pranidhana is the art of going with the flow, without letting the flow overtake us.

This feels like such a huge milestone to me and I simply could not have done it without every person who has ever listened to even one episode of the show. I appreciate you so much! In honor of Thanksgiving week (here in the US) and this occasion, we'll spend today working through the chakras one by one and exploring the gratitude we have within each one. I know it can be tough to focus on the good in an energy center, especially if it's an area we feel imbalanced in, but the hope is that this mini gratitude mediation will bring a little more balance and peace to our lives and encourage us to cultivate this feeling year-round. Gratitude is one of the highest vibrations we can experience, so let's open ourselves to it!

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageContinuing our studies of the niyamas (guidelines for internal work) we really start to dig deep into what it means to reflect on ourselves and our connection to the world and to the universe. The fourth niyama is svadhyaya - self-study - and it's here that the work can start to get really interesting and, at times, really intense. What would it mean to take a deep, honest look at who you are? At your thoughts, at your stories, at what might be holding you back from where you want to be? We'll talk about cultivating the witness and learning to more objectively look at our emotions and responses in life. Remember, you are worth the effort it takes to follow the unique path toward your highest self!
Side note: in the episode, I mention a book I'm reading and I call it "Who Am I?" There is a book by that name that is really interesting, but it's not the book I'm talking about. The book I'm referencing is called "The Yoga of Self-Inquiry: the Essence of Ramana Maharshi's Non-Dual Advaita Meditation for Enlightenment."

The kind of heat that changes us and transforms us into the highest versions of ourselves, even when it is sometimes a little painful. Tapas is part of the Ashtanga Yoga system, an eight-limbed path that leads us toward spiritual growth, and this niyama is all about practices we can include in our lives that burn away the things that aren't working anymore. That might be old ideas, poor physical health, or simple mind clutter. Tapas are the tools that we use to clear away debris to create the space we need to grow!

Santosha is the practice of living contentedly, with a sense of inner peace. It doesn't mean that we can't ever change or grow or improve, only that we have the opportunity to act from a strong, measured center. Santosha allows us to feel secure moving through an insecure world. We'll talk about some of the biggest obstacles to contentment and some practices we can develop that can lead us closer to peace.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageToday we begin our series on the niyamas. If the yamas are ethical guidelines on how to interact with the world, the niyamas are ethical guidelines with a more internal focus. The first is Saucha, which translates to purity, or cleanliness. Of course, we recognize the importance of keeping our physical bodies clean, and we'll also look at how this practice relates to inside our bodies, as well as emotional and mental "cleaning house." Practicing purity of body and mind creates space for us to grow and explore a spiritual path and expand our consciousness without being weighed down by poor health or emotional ties that aren't serving us any longer.
And for the record - purity isn't some sort of moral code here! We're just talking about how a healthy, balanced mind and body prepares us for an aware, awake soul.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageToday we explore the fifth and final yama - aparigraha. The translation is non-possessiveness, or non-clinging, which in the chakra system we might experience as the act of letting go. In the Buddhist traditions, it's often said that clinging or grasping is the cause of unnecessary suffering and it is only when we learn to let go that we can find peace. Aparigraha, in the Ashtanga Yoga tradition, invites us to incorporate that practice into our lives every day to help us find our true nature, or highest self. We'll take a look at what this practice means and might look like in modern life, why it's so difficult to do, and how we might be clinging to things without even realizing it.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageThis week we explore the fourth yama - brahmacharya. I find it a little trickier to understand than the others, so we'll really break it down into what it means for people living today, in the modern world. The literal translation of this yama is "walk with god," which can be confusing and even off-putting. No worries - we'll figure it out together! Join me as we explore this ethical practice, guiding us to find our true nature and lighting our spiritual path.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageIt's a little diversion from the chakras, but one I think you'll find very interesting! Today I interview Psychic Medium Drew Cali and learn three ways to connect with our spirit guides. This is outside my realm of expertise, so we start with the basics - what are spirit guides? What is a psychic? What's the difference between a psychic and a medium? Then we explore ways to connect to these beings and why it might be helpful for us on our varying paths.
If you've ever wondered who your spirit guides are, or how to hear their messages, or if you have spirit guides at all, Drew takes this potentially complicated topic and makes it simple and accessible to all of us!

Asteya translates to non-stealing, but it's so much more than simply not taking things that don't belong to you. We'll talk about how we unknowingly steal our own happiness and opportunities and how a deep practice of asteya can help us become the people we want to be. Non-stealing shows itself particularly in the root, sacral, and solar plexus chakras, but we'll also learn how the heart chakra and throat chakra can start to close.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageThis week we look at the second yama in the Ashtanga Yoga system: satya or truthfulness. We can think of this system and its components as a guidebook or roadmap to our highest selves. We'll explore how truthful behavior is far more than not telling a simple lie, how and why truth - both personal and universal truth - affects your chakras, and of course, some ideas on how to practice satya in our daily lives.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageWe're always talking about our "highest self" - what is that even? And how do we even begin to get there? Today we'll discuss what your highest self might look like and also dive deep into one step you can take to get there. Ancient yogis left us a roadmap, if you will, of some things we can do (or not do!) to lead us closer to our highest selves. The first one, and the topic of today's show is the first of the yamas: ahimsa, non-violence. It's a broader, more nuanced topic that we might expect at first, so we'll spend some time on it. We're learning how harm to self and others might be creating chakra imbalances in ways we haven't even thought of!

It can be in the world or in their personal lives, but the pain can be consuming. Today we're talking about how the news and social media are affecting your chakras and how imbalances can be created by a constant stream of information. There are very good reasons you feel out of sorts energetically! We'll also talk about where each of us can start finding balance again, feel better, and create space for other people to feel good, too.

We'll talk about what it means to create an identity around an imbalance or trauma and why we might do it (spoiler: we all do it, it's okay!).

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageIn our chakra work, we often use affirmations - phrases that connect us to the essence of each energy center. Sometimes these are called mantras, but this week we talk about how mantra and affirmations are different from one another. They work differently and they do different things. We'll discuss what each is, how to know when to use which one for the result we're looking for, and end with both affirmations and mantras that you can practice with!

We'll learn what it is, what it does, and why it's important to our work on the spiritual path. If you're struggling or feel lost, this episode may shine a little light on the steps in front of you. We'll learn how to hear, receive, and process messages from our highest selves - the parts of us that are connected to the universe and unconditional love.

That's what we're talking about today - how those relationships are affecting all your chakras, but specifically your throat and sacral chakras. More importantly, we'll discuss some strategies for changing these relationships and the energetic impact they have on us.

We'll explore the topic of "toxic positivity," where it lies in your energetic chain, and how it might be hurting you to always look on the bright side. Let's learn how to be truthful in our positive thinking while still acknowledging that sometimes life hurts.

How has your life changed since you began your chakra work? Your spiritual journey? If you're like most people, the answer is that life has changed quite a bit - and not all of it feels like it's for the better. And one place we really notice the change is in our relationships. In this week's episode, we're talking about how spiritual and energy work can affect your relationship and why. And, of course, how you can manage the changes that are happening both inside and out.

It's easy to think that if we can just change the environment, the person, or the relationship that all our problems will be solved, but in this episode, we learn how our own energy, our own chakra blocks and imbalances can be healed to help heal a struggling relationship.
If you find yourself feeling insecure in your relationship, I'll provide some clarity and some ways to help balance your root chakra. If you feel emotionally distant or overwhelmed, your sacral chakra might need some attention. And I'll show you some ways to feel more love, loved, and loving just through your own energy work!

It's the question I get most - how do I know if I have a block in my chakras? And then the follow up: how do I get rid of it? When energy isn't flowing freely through our energetic channels, we don't feel quite right. Like something is off. And generally, that means we need to release some of the low vibrations in our energy centers.
Today we talk about what those low vibrations might look like in your life, how you might feel if you're experiencing them in one or more chakras, and then we finish with a short meditation to help clear them out and raise your energetic vibration so that you can feel your best emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually!

In the conclusion of our foods for the chakras series, we talk about the third eye and crown chakras. While there are some foods here that are good for nourishment, these uppermost chakras are more energetically minded so we focus on how foods affect our bodies and even the possibility that eating NO food for a while might be helpful!
I also talk about chronic inflammation: what it is, how it develops, why it's hard on our bodies, and how to help reduce it.
As always, practicing gratitude and being highly in tune with the connection between your physical and energetic body can improve your wellness not just physically, but emotionally, mentally, and spiritually.

After discussing foods for the root and sacral chakras from the last episode, we continue this series and move to the next one – the solar plexus chakra. In this episode, I will share which specific foods can benefit the solar plexus chakra and the physiology governed by this chakra.
The Solar Plexus Chakra
Located a few inches above your navel, the solar plexus chakra is associated with the color yellow and the fire element. Physically, it is the chakra of digestion and gut health, and energetically, it regulates personal power. Emotions affect the digestive system, just like food, so we always want to me mindful of both physical and energetic resolutions to stomach discomfort. The solar plexus chakra may need to be energized or calm down depending on what you are experiencing, so I will share with you which foods can give you the results you need here, as well as the nutritional value they hold.
Outline of the Episode:
[00:26] Correlating food and the chakras.
[02:56] The solar plexus chakra, gut health, and its relation to emotions.
[05:16] Spicy foods for a burst of energy, and grains and legumes to relax.
[06:47] Importance of blood sugar regulation.
[07:54] Yellow fruits and vegetables for the solar plexus chakra.
[09:56] Unveiling the truth about sugar.

After learning the holistic approach and the importance of nutrition on Ayurveda from the last episode, we continue the conversation by talking about foods that will help you keep your chakras balanced. In this episode, I share which particular foods are best for the first two chakras and what nutrients they contain that directly benefit the areas that these chakras govern physically and energetically.
Foods for the Root Chakra
The first chakra is the root chakra, located at the base of the spine. It is associated with the color red, the earth element, and is energetically responsible for grounding, security, and survival. It is very much physically concerned with the structure and form of the legs and hips to keep us grounded and rooted to the earth. We'll talk about which foods serve those needs today!
Foods for the Sacral Chakra
The sacral chakra is located a few inches below the navel. It is associated with the orange color, the water element, and is energetically responsible for creativity and emotions. Physically, it is concerned with the reproductive organs, which play a significant role in creation. Sometimes we need more or less energy here, or different kinds of energy, so we'll talk about how to use your nutrition to find the energetic shift you want.
Outline of the Episode:
[01:32] Introduction to the role of food in balancing the chakras.
[03:09] The root chakra and foods recommended for it.
[04:45] The meat "controversy"
[06:57] Protein-rich foods for the root chakra.

Victor Briere, A.D., and I discuss what Ayurveda is about, its application to health and wellness, and its connection to chakras. To perform spiritual practices in yoga efficiently, one has to have a healthy body. As a holistic science, Ayurveda treats the body and the mind as a whole. In this episode, Victor sheds some light on how Ayurveda can help improve overall health.
Ayurveda Explained
While yoga is about finding life’s spiritual aspects, Ayurveda is a holistic science that promotes good health and balance. Its approach is more on treating every part of the body by acknowledging that it is connected as a whole at the core. It attempts to treat a disease at the roots itself. Ayurveda also focuses more on staying healthy to avoid getting illnesses and maintaining balance according to one’s body, mind, and spirit. Victor recommends that Ayurveda should be practiced alongside yoga to achieve overall wellness. Yoga practices require focus, and if you’re not healthy, it would be a challenge to meditate, chant, and breathe. Ayurveda ensures a healthy body, increasing the benefits of yoga towards finding balance within.
Stress is the most common cause of imbalance, according to Victor. The body has the ability to handle stress, but too much stress is where the problem lies. External conditions also contribute to imbalance. When these build up little by little, the body gets weaker, and if it goes too far, that is when illness comes in. Ayurveda exists to provide solutions for this problem, restore balance in the body and keep the body healthy.
The Concept of Doshas
Doshas are the primary biological forces in all of nature. Primary patterns in nature reflect in the human body, and these control the functions of the body. There are three Doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Vata is concerned with all movement in the body from the nervous system down to the digestive system. Pitta controls breaking down substances like the metabolic process, and Kapha is about growth in the body. The harmony between these Doshas creates balance in the body, and each person differs in their concentration of Doshas. It is an Ayurvedic professional’s job to assess a person’s Doshas and provide ways to keep them balanced.
About Victor Briere, A.D.:
Victor Briere, A.D. is the co-founder of Pacific Coast Ayurveda and the International Institute of Ayurveda, where he serves as a NAMA-recognized Ayurvedic Doctor and Kundalini Yoga Teacher. Victor is a gifted pulse reader specializing in ayurvedic diagnostic techniques and health counseling. His in-depth, individualized approach to health offers clients and students a detailed and encompassing perspective on the underlying causes of imbalance. Victor’s approach to wellness emphasizes the role and importance of lifestyle and dietary balance. He offers the support often needed to successfully address the root cause of illness and restore the body to balance.
Outline of the Episode:
[01:49] Explaining Ayurveda and Ayurvedic Medicine.
[07:30] The concept of Doshas – the primary biological forces in all of nature.
[10:17] How does one get out of balance?
[13:21] The effects of Ayurveda on emotional and mental health.
[18:24] Exploring the connection between Ayurveda and chakras.
[23:14] Relativity of specific diseases to specific chakras and how to treat it with Ayurveda.
[29:02] Diet is an essential part of Ayurvedic treatment; it varies for each person.

In our final episode of the Trauma Series, we talk about one of the most ignored abuses - spiritual abuse - and how it can lead to challenges in our lives now. We also discuss how, if our universal right to know is violated, the effects on the entire energetic system can be lasting and painful. However, there are some excellent healing modalities to lead us through any trauma and out the other side, closer to our highest self and where we want to be in life!

As we start to really get into the upper chakras, the trauma becomes very intellectual and more about what we see and how we process it. Third Eye Chakra Trauma can happen any time, but particularly in adolescence. If you ever have trouble trusting your own eyes or doubt yourself, this may be a place of injury for you. We'll finish, of course, with some ideas for healing and how to gain a better understanding of ourselves.

If you've ever found yourself making a decision that you *knew* wasn't good for you but you just felt like you couldn't stop, you may have experienced Solar Plexus Chakra Trauma. Today we talk about how damage and injury to this energy center can show up in our lives now as poor decisions, the inability to say no, and the feeling that whatever you do, it's never enough. If that resonates, this episode will be helpful in exploring the roots of those thoughts and feelings, and how to start reframing them to set you on a healing path.

Last week's episode really struck a chord with a lot of listeners - I got quite a few questions that I felt needed answers before we moved on. So I offer you the first ever double chakra episode! If you haven't listened to episode 63, you might go back and start there. This episode gives a little more detail on some of what was covered there. Today, I answer the three most common questions I got throughout the week!
Here are the resources I mention in this episode:
National Suicide Prevention Hotline: 800-273-8255
I mentioned an online counseling service in the previous episode. Here's that link - they offer 20% off your first month and several free resources as well.

Events in our lives, both acute and chronic, can have an impact on our energy centers. We store memories and unprocessed emotions that can affect our behavior and current situation, even if it's unrecognized on a conscious level. Today we'll be talking about Root Chakra Trauma, threats to our safety and security, particularly as children, that can show up in our experience now. I'll also offer you some specific practices that you can start *today* to help you heal and feel better.

We're doing some myth busting today! If you've ever thought that you can't meditate, or that you're "bad" at it, this is the episode for you. We're going to break down some misconceptions about what meditating is and how to do it. My hope is that you'll have a new confidence in your practice!

Can you see your future, really see it with clarity? Yes, there is worldly work to be done in creation, but the Third Eye imagination acts like a map, showing us the destination so we can plan the best route. This week we talk about how to picture what CAN BE, not just what IS or WAS.

What we say to the universe matters, so we better be intentional about what we communicate! This week we talk about the throat chakra - the energy center some say is the most important one when it comes to manifesting. No matter what you're trying to create in your world, it won't show up unless you speak to yourself (and others, perhaps!) honestly and directly. Don't let your heart's truth get stuck in your throat chakra!

We're finally out of the the lower chakras and into the heart - where we experience joy, love, and gratitude for what we're manifesting. Even if it isn't here yet. Today we talk a little about the energy of manifesting, touch on the science behind it, learn how it works. We'll explore how the heart chakra can help us balance the fears of the lower chakras with higher vibration feelings. I'll give you a couple of different ways to practice this in your own life and in your creating!

It's a quick break in the series to have a conversation with my friend and coach, Donna Thomas.

We talk about her process for reframing tragedy and setback into success. Her motto is "I'll figure it out!" She's a fascinating example of how the creation process works and how it really can bring you to where you want to be. Find Donna at www.joyfulrebelcoaching.com!

When you're ready for something new in your life, it's important to bring it toward you with purpose and focus and good emotional health. That's what today's episode is all about. We need to stop fearing our emotions, stop giving them control over us, and learn to nurture the kinds of feelings that will give rise to the kinds of experiences we want to have. Remember that like attracts like in the world of energy, so if you're operation from a place of scarcity or fear, that's the kind of energy you're bringing in. Practice releasing the emotions that aren't serving you and filling yourself with the ones that do!

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageSelf-Unity may or may not be a real word, but it's the topic of today's deep dive. Do you ever feel like you're of two minds? That your heart wants one thing and your head wants another? That's dis-unity (another word I may have made up), and it's a sign of imbalance in your sixth energy center. This episode discusses how and why we might feel this way and why it's really important that we start to merge the two sides of ourselves to feel whole and at peace.

All communication stems from the Throat Chakra, but what if the things we tell ourselves aren't true and aren't helpful? What if our inner voice is actually the Shadow Side of the Throat Chakra (see episode 31 for more!)? This episode explores where self-talk comes from, how and why it matters what we communicate to ourselves and the world, and how to begin replacing self-sabotaging lies with life-affirming truths. At the end, you'll find the next in the series of affirmation practices to help us grow.

--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/sarah4544/messageA new deep dive series starts today and we're exploring a really important aspect of the root chakra - trust. We've talked before about how security defines this chakra, and there is no security without trust. But trust isn't just in other people, it's in yourself, and knowing that you can trust yourself in any situation.
This episode discusses how and why we lose trust and what we can do to begin building it back up. And because some people asked, I've included a brand new meditation at the end of the episode that you can use right away to help balance your root chakra.
