For the Wise and Well Ancestors

In this solo episode I chat about my recent exploration in my more ancient ancestry. This reciprocal relationship has provided me with so much connection, belonging and nourishment that I didn't quite realize that I was lacking. I also expound on this connection with ancestry and how it directly ties with our connection with earth and our own bodies. To provide a reminder that modern society has not been shaped in such a way to support the true nature of humanity in each one of us- and to begin to surrender from that shame.

2023 is the year I did brave shit

Hi Friends! This episode is a nice ramble session of me reflecting on the year past- you will hear me repeat on themes of ungrounded spirituality and getting back into the body (it seems to be my favorite topic these days) but I think for valid reason. If I had to name what changed for me in 2023 , it was that; integrating spiritual wisdom into the body. It's also Rooted Light's 2nd Birthday, yahoo! My oh my, all the ways I've changed and by extension how my business has changed. Gotta keep staying updated with who you are friends, that's where the juice is!

Becoming more of yourself with Earth Medicine with Beana Bern

This episode is jam packed with wisdom from the incredible Beana Bern who holds many roles, but today we primarily focus on her role as a guide for those journeying with psilocybin. Beana has many decades of experience with altered states of consciousness, both in her personal path and with holding space for others. We talk about how "all roads lead to the heart" when you open the gate of self-development and/or spirituality. And how this spirilic journey often accompanies a peeling of many layers of our identities to distill more of who we are. I also share a little about my history of being intimidated by plant medicine to offer reassurance for those who feel fear around the subject. Beana also expounds on this reassurance by offering grounded and practical advice for those who are considering collaborating with mushrooms via macro or micro- dosing. How to work with Beana: Beana Bern stewards her "Imagination Farm" in Northern Vermont called Rootstock Retreat. She offers Medicine Journeys, coaching, micro-dosing immersion courses (in-person and virtual), wood-fired bathhouse, and monthly moon and sun circles. She offers weekly zoom calls for anyone who is interested learning more about psilocybin medicine.

Trust wants to be your Bestie

I don't know about you, but for a very long time it was extremely difficult to relate to the endless clichés that exist in all the self development and new age spaces around "trusting the universe" or "surrender to the process." I was often filled with frustration and sadness that these feelings of Trust did not feel available to me- even when I "thought I was doing it right." If this has ever been you, you will want to listen to this episode. I take you on a journey of how Trust became a more active friend of mine by putting me in my place when I needed it the most.

Cultivating Coherence within the Body(ies)

The modern day path of “spirituality” has tempting twists & turns. Such as getting lost in the abyss of systems, ancient teachings and New Age topics- I’m looking at you GaiaTv... This path has taken me on phases of endless seeking, dopamine-highs that come with new levels of awareness or understanding a “truth”- only for that understanding (and my ego) to be obliterated and transmuted altogether. This contraction and expansion cycle is one that is unavoidable for me, and I’ve learned something that has made this process less disorienting. Learn about it in this episode "Cultivating Coherence within the Body(ies)"How to work with Melanie:Melanie is the host of the Rooted Light podcast, mystic, and Doctor of Physical Therapy who specializes in the intersection of the physical and subtle energy bodies and using the nervous system as the bridge.

Finding Safety to Lead with Intuition with Katelyn Crossley

In this episode I interview Katelyn Crossley who is a very wise woman and brilliant mind in the holistic mental health field- she also happens to be my best friend. You are going to want to listen to the entirety of this episode. We dive into the crunchiness of feeling uncomfortable in the body as young people which led to a spiraling journey of finding safety in Self and around others. This has allowed Katelyn to uncover immense richness in life by being able to feel safe enough to lean into her intuition, which has granted her many belssings. She also helps others find this safety within themselves through coaching. How to work with Katelyn: Katelyn is minimally present on social media but she welcomes you to email her. You can reach her at selfinsightwithkatelyn@gmail.com You can also follow her facebook page here How to work with Melanie: Melanie is the host of the Rooted Light podcast, mystic, and Doctor of Physical Therapy who specializes in the intersection of the physical and subtle energy bodies and using the nervous system as the bridge.
