    Communicating with Spirit with Barrie John

    Communicating with Spirit with Barrie John

    In today’s episode of the Tranquil Awakenings Podcast, Debbie will be in conversation with international psychic medium Barrie John.
    From a young age Barrie was aware of spirit, this being a normal and natural part of his experience. As time went on, he followed his calling, becoming a medium, a contrast from his professional role within the legal world. Through hard work and dedication, combined with the support of individuals such as Colin Fry, Barrie became a renowned medium regularly appearing on programmes such as Most Haunted and This Morning.
    During this episode Barrie highlights the comfort that contact with spirit can bring.
     
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
    We all have the potential to develop mediumistic and psychic abilities.Contact from loved ones who have passed can provide comfort and reassurance.You can be both spiritual and also grounded and professional.The right people and circumstances come along to support us with our purpose.Time with the ones we love, and living your life as your authentic self is of great importance.Mediumship, readings and therapy can help to give direction and hope.The situations we experience in life can help to make us stronger.
    BEST MOMENTS
    “I get to it very often, even nowadays where I have to message a friend who's a psychic friend and go ‘What are you feeling on this?’ ‘Where do you think I'm going with this?’”“A lot of people come to us out of grief, and that's one of the biggest things that we all see as professional, sort of therapists, where people maybe haven't had the chance to say goodbyes or maybe there was something hung over the family before they passed away, you know, and we all do this.”“And as I always say to people when I teach, one of the things you start looking at is yourself. You look at how you affect people, but also how people affect you.”“And I remember, basically being a young child, you know, and I remember being a child laying on my bed and watching figures falling from the sky or faces falling from the sky.”“And then I got into the paranormal, you know, and this was around the 90s even before the famous TV shows like Most Haunted.”“We all go through difficult times and it's not easy because we get lost, and I think we just get lost in life. But I think what I would say is just don't ever give up, remember that there is something better out there. We all go through these experiences of life, and it makes us a stronger person, it makes us who we are today.”

    Re-aligning your goals with Trina Kavanagh-Thomas

    Re-aligning your goals with Trina Kavanagh-Thomas

    In today’s episode of the Tranquil Awakenings Podcast, Debbie will be in conversation with Trina Kavanagh-Thomas, who works with female leaders who are wanting to create a change within their life.
     
    During this conversation, Trina will be sharing how through dissatisfaction, we can identify when things are no longer working for us within our lives. This can be used to create positive change, making sure the alterations we make are aligned with our current needs and values.
     
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
    We often have to perform multiple different roles within our lives.When we are performing roles all the time, that can become exhausting, therefore self-care is important.Your body will tell you when you need to slow down or stop.A process of grieving can occur when we go through life’s transitions.We may need to make changes in our lives in order to re-align ourselves with our current values.Dissatisfaction can make us aware that something needs to change. 
    BEST MOMENTS
    “And it is an identity for a lot of people, you know, and for a lot of people they may find out that they're performing.”“I am the mechanic by the way. So when people come and see me, you know, they're in a position where their body is telling them, even though they can keep going, their body tells them in different ways that they need to stop.”“When I stepped away from my last business, I ran a fitness business. I ran it for eight years and, and it was quite big. I was running events; I was doing like classes and stuff. I was personal training. So there was like a massive following and when it comes time, you know it.”“A lot of that comes from validation and wanting to be recognized as well. And these are the things that I wasn't aware of when I was in that role.”“It's all about listening to your body, your intuition, your gut instinct. What does it feel like when certain things happen to you?“And I think, like you say, it's so essential because energy is something that flows all around and within us all of the time.”

    BEST MOMENTS
    “I believe that we all have a purpose and, you know, some of us find it a lot quicker than others and that's fine.”“I remember going on to this retreat when I was about 15 and I had some kind of, whether you want to call it some kind of mini awakening or something that happened.”“I had this first moment of feeling, and it was certainly a sensation that went right through my body in terms of this calmness and this kind of serenity and this peace and this surety, almost like, right, I know where I'm going now. I know what I've got to do. I know how I've got to resolve this.”“Life is a complete journey of self-discovery.”“And she just said to me, you've got the gift, you can do this. I'm like, I can't believe she just said that again. I was just, I was almost kind of hoping that she was going to say that's not the case, you know, and then I could just put it to bed.”“And I knew it was about service and I knew that it, this was the hole in the soul that I kind of needed to start to kind of feel and to, you know, it's, I guess it's almost turned my life completely around living spiritually because it's all about everybody else now and much less about me.” HOST BIO

    BEST MOMENTS
    “I got up to one and a half thousand feet, and I got pulled back with such force. To be honest, there's nothing up there. My immediate thought was I ran into a plane or something, you know? So, I got pulled right back, which cracked my ribs, and it was really difficult to breathe.”“I'm thinking this can't be right, and I felt like I was a soul in a dead coffin body.”“I was looking down at myself thinking, well, I'm pretty sure that's me, but if that's me and I'm up here, then I must be dead. But if I'm dead, why am I thinking?”“He simply said, ‘I didn't want to go back, so I went back to spirit’, and I said, ‘Well, how did you go back to spirit?’ He said, ‘I was so shocked by the way that we were working with humanity and destroying humanity and the world that I simply unzipped my body and went back to spirit and was met by the council.’”“Memory is not just the physical ailments. We know that you can carry cancer or neuron diseases, et cetera, but it also carries emotion, mental issues, memories.”“What we don't understand is why you forget everything, you know, you're supposed to remember some things, but some people forget everything, and they come down to earth, and you are supposed to have these challenges in order to raise your awareness in order for you to grow.”“Well, the one thing that I have been told all the time is nothing lasts forever. It's a bit like the seasons and the tide of the wave that comes in and out. So, your grief, your joy, your anxiousness, it’s a challenge for you to experience in order for you to grow, to gain your boundaries. Don't get stuck in that belief. Honour the emotions that you are feeling. Know that it will pass. Things will change. They will be different, but it won't last forever.”

    BEST MOMENTS
    “I realize my magic bullet might not be the magic bullet for everybody else. However, I think it would be beneficial to a lot of people. So that's been a fascinating journey in itself.”“I'm so surprised, I never in a million years thought that I would be resolving my stuff from a physiological point of view, coming from the physical. Being one that has really avoided anything to do with exercise over the last 30 years, other than perhaps lifting a guitar cabinet on stage in my previous life as a musician.”“We're all unique and we're all different. And I find it fascinating watching everybody's journey and what works for them and what doesn't work for them. And also watching people unfold and change and evolve.”“And people still now, they will message me, people that I don't know, to say how my book has impacted their lives, which is just, I never expected that at all. I expected half a dozen friends to maybe read it.”“Well, I'm sure maybe I was reluctant to sign up and then they said, ‘Well, I'll tell you what, before you get round to doing all this, we'll leave you a period where you can, play in a band, go on a tour around the world, have beers and food, groupies, and do your little fun bit, and then you've got to do your spiritual stuff.’”“She'll tap in with her guides and yes, that's exactly correct, that's the information we need, and we encourage you to go and work on this energy vortex that's been opened or this portal that's been opened.”“I'm so passionate about getting people together, to be able to give them that space and time away from their busy lives, just to be able to switch off. I have realized over the years, I'm very good at holding space for people.”

    Acceptance and Trust with Scarlett Webster

    Acceptance and Trust with Scarlett Webster

    In today’s episode of the Tranquil Awakenings Podcast, Debbie will be in conversation with Scarlett who is a mental health practitioner working both privately and within the NHS.
     
    After doing a fine arts degree, Scarlett had planned on becoming a teacher. During this time, she sadly lost her brother, and it sent her on a different trajectory. She ended up caring for the elderly and this led her on a path of training as a therapist.
    This journey has invited her to explore a process of self-discovery, making a commitment to self-healing and self-compassion, something which has given her a deeper understanding to support her client’s needs.
     
    KEY TAKEAWAYS
    Self-expression and creativity can be beneficial for mental health and well-being.As well as having goals to work towards, it is also important to enjoy the journey along the way. Surrendering is an art that, when practiced, allows for space to be created and situations to unfold organically. By relaxing the body, it can help to relax the mind.Therapeutic work is a journey that goes at a varied pace at different times of your life.Acceptance can help to reduce resistance. The body gives us messages when things are not right. 
    BEST MOMENTS
    “Which I hadn't thought, when I first went into training, I was like oh, I've done a fine art degree, what's this got to do with it? But yeah, over the years I see it as probably one of my greatest assets, actually having that background. And the beauty of doing a fine art degree is that it is a lot about self-expression.”“One of my biggest lessons, certainly in the past few years has been around that surrendering into process as well, and that's, you know, and I still journey with that now there is no finished article, is there?”“I feel that when my body can let go, my mind then goes, Oh, okay, I’ll follow suit.”“Over the last year I’ve had a period with a breathwork facilitator. And that for me has been such a tonic. It's been a real eye-opening journey into my relationship with myself.”“You know, you work with one layer and then there's another one and another one, you keep peeling them back. And for me as well, there's something about that. As much as we're learning, we're also doing a heck of a lot of unlearning.”
