In this episode, Lyn interviews Dawn Renee who shares a story of how she became bedridden and unable to walk for 30 days. From an early age, Dawn had struggled with a wide variety of health issues but in 2010 her body forced her to stop and she spent 30 days in bed learning to listening to her mind, body, and spirit.
Dawn also shares about being a caregiver and what she learned from taking care of a woman named Ann with ALS for 7 years. Dawn's message is one of learning to find joy in your life and take care of yourself.
 
About Dawn:
Dawn Renee, Minister and co-Founder is an energy doula and holistic caregiver who struggled most of her life to understand the triggers and internal misalignments in her body, mind and spriit that were causing her to experience a system collapse (migraines, allergies, endometriosis, autoimmune disorder, Diabetes II, Lyme, Epstein bar, mold exposure, gallstones and chronic fatigue).
She found herself bedridden for 30 days in 2010. When she was able to recover and stand again it became her soul’s mission to share her message of love, spirit, miracle healing and how becoming a caregiver of herself showed her a new path to living in joy and ultimately how to unleash her own healing potential.
She was a live-in caregiver caring for a friend with stage 4 ALS, Amyotrophic Lateral Scloerosis (aka Lou Gherig’s disease). Her friend was told she would not make it a week let alone 6 months, she was bedridden, paralyzed from the neck down, on a ventilator, feeding tube, catheter requiring 24/7 care and support.
With a holistic and spiritual approach the moments of now became the focus and she lived for 7 more years finding joyful moments every step of the way as she unleashed her healing potential.

Both on a mission to inspire others to tap into their gifts and super powers. They have witnessed first hand how music has transformed spirit and healing potential for themselves and others.

In this episode, Lyn interviews Etienne Peirsman who shares his story of being in almost complete kidney failure after a staph infection. He talks about his near death experience and how stillness and listening to his intution allowed his body to heal itself.
We also dove into what craniosacral is (I highly recommend it!), why it is an important modality to support healing, and the importance of touch in our health and healing.
 
About Etienne:
Highly inspirational and respected teacher in the field of CranioSacral, Etienne Peirsman came to Cranio in a non-traditional fashion. After a a staph infection left him with nearly 20% kidney function, he found that preparing to die brought him the clarity of total silence. In a remarkable turn of events, he was able to heal his own body, which led him to travel to the Osho International Meditation Center, where he was first introduced to Cranio, during an immersive meditation and bodywork training.

Etienne describes Cranio as the the closest thing to that wonderful silence he found during his near death experience, and from that time, 31 years ago, it became his life's passion.

His journey led him first to apprentice at the Upledger Institute in Florida, then teach at Bastyr University in Washington and the New Mexico Academy of Healing Arts. He is the founder of Peirsman Cranio as well as the CranioSacraal Therapie Academy in Holland, where he originated the CranioSacral Professional Organization and is an honorary member of The Dutch CranioSacral Practitioner Society.

Author of the pioneering book, "Craniosacral Therapy for Babies and Small Children" published by Penguin Random House, Etienne is about to publish his second book "Tantric Aspects of CranioSacral".

It is truly a unique experience to learn Cranio from such a passionate, talented teacher who infuses his classes with good humor and a deep dive into stillness. He strives to use simple language that engages our spontaneity. His methods are the middle ground between biomechanics Upledger style and biodynamic Sutherland style.

In his classes, students learn to start from a no-mind space, a place where the mind can take a vacation, allowing their practice to unfold in non-duality, or what he calls the Midline.

He emphasizes the power of touch to stimulate the secretion of oxytocin, a hormone that brings a feeling of oneness and values clarity as the result of being in touch with that Midline that connects us with our life-force, our true and infinite potential.

Etienne travels the world with his life partner Toshiko, teaching where he is invited to share this opportunity of radical self transformation. He is also launching his first ever online class, that will have fascinating lectures and detailed instruction on all the hand placements, as a resource for students to learn and enjoy Cranio.

In this episode, Lyn interview Susan Michel who shares her story of being a 2-time suicide survivor. Susan talks about what made her want to commit suicide and what pulled her back to choosing to live.
In addition, we talk about the book "A Course in Miracles," as well as Susan's newly released book "Surrender to Joy." Susan talks about the importance of slowing down, feeling our emotions, and how doing so ultimately leads to healing and joy. We discuss why focusing on positive thinking alone can actually create blocks to the results that we want.
 
About Susan:
Susan is a 2-time suicide survivor and author of Surrender to Joy: From Suicide to Serenity. Based on the principles of A Course in Miracles, a spiritual thought system that she has studied and taught for 33 years, she helps women identify and process emotional pain so transformation can occur and they can grow and open up to their innate brilliance. In today's world we are taught that to create a positive life, we must think positive thoughts. That is only partial truth. Without stepping into our pain first, joy is impossible.

Susan initially learned this truth while struggling with clinical depression in 1985. As a young woman, she felt abandoned and betrayed by her dad and everyone else in her life. Her life's journey hit a major turning point at the age of 20 when she tried to commit suicide twice. With 6 bottles of sleeping pills inside of her, she imagined her father lying over ger dead body in tears. She wanted him to feel her pain. Then she realized that sheI didn't really want to die, she just wanted to kill the pain.

Her joy was on the other side of all of that pain and she  didn't have the tools to process it. Once she found them, she found that the keys to true transformation are forgiveness and gratitude.
Her business is Trust Transformational Truth. When we can trust our inner guidance system instead of trying to prove our worth, life starts to flow more smoothly.

Many of us have been taught that anger is bad, that we shouldn't get angry, and often we feel unsafe expressing anger.
In this episode, Lyn talks about how there is actually a healthy expression of anger and what it is meant to help us do. She also shares about how imbalanced anger affects certain organs in the body, as well as our overall health.
