Together, Gina and Jennie explore what Qigong is, how it differs from Tai Chi and yoga, and why this gentle practice of mindful movement can be so supportive for beginners. Jennie shares her personal path from belly dance and yoga into Qigong, how she began to feel the energy beneath the movements, and why this practice became something she felt called to teach. This conversation touches on the physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual benefits of Qigong, including stress relief, nervous system support, emotional release, grounding, and the subtle art of listening inward. Gina and Jennie also speak to common beginner concerns—like coordination, flexibility, and feeling self-conscious—with a beautiful reminder that Qigong is not about performance or perfection. It is about presence.

    You Are Not Broken: Donna Bishop on Addiction, Shame, and Healing

    In this episode of The Karuna Life Podcast, Gina Kitzmiller sits down with Donna Bishop for a deeply honest and compassionate conversation about addiction, shame, thought patterns, and the possibility of lasting change. Donna shares her personal story of living as a functioning addict, the profound turning point that led her into treatment 12 years ago, and the life-changing insight that helped her see she was not broken — she was believing thoughts that were never meant to define her. Together, Gina and Donna explore why addiction often serves a purpose, why one-size-fits-all recovery models do not work for everyone, and how kindness, self-trust, and a new understanding of thought can open the door to real freedom. They also talk about family dynamics, shame, coping behaviors, relapse, and what it means to move beyond survival into a life that feels clear, grounded, and truly your own. This episode is for anyone navigating addiction, loving someone who is, or trying to understand the deeper emotional and mental patterns that keep us stuck. It is also a powerful reminder that change is possible, that healing is not always linear, and that there may be more paths to freedom than we have been taught to believe. ⭐️ If this episode speaks to you, please follow The Karuna Life Podcast, leave a five-star rating and share it with someone who may need this conversation.

    Craniosacral Therapy and the Mindset Shift: Andrea Morrison of Balance From Within

    In this episode of The Karuna Life Podcast, Gina Kitzmiller - Professional Intuitive, author, Reiki Master Teacher, and founder of Trimatri® Reiki - sits down with Andrea Morrison of Balance From Within (Sebring, Florida) for a grounded, expansive conversation on craniosacral therapy, nervous system regulation, and the inner shifts that help us reclaim our power. Andrea breaks down craniosacral therapy as a gentle, fascia-informed approach that supports the body’s return to homeostasis - especially when we’ve been living in chronic fight/flight/freeze. Together, Gina and Andrea explore how stress and emotion can be held in the body, why true healing isn’t something that’s “done to you,” and how the right support can help you come back into your own inner authority. This episode also goes deeper into the real-life spiritual work: judgment vs. compassion, authenticity, and the “shadow” as a teacher. You’ll hear why patterns often return leveled up - not to punish you, but to help you strengthen boundaries, integrate the lesson, and move forward with more clarity. Plus, Andrea shares her surprising career pivot and a manifestation moment. Key TakeawaysYour body is designed to heal - but it needs the nervous system to feel safe enough to do it.How we fall into the victim mindset and how to change it.Awareness is powerful: observing thoughts without labeling them “good/bad” can create real change.Boundaries often get tested at higher levels as you grow - this is how lessons become embodied.Presence is medicine: when someone can hold steady, your system can recalibrate naturally.If you enjoyed this conversation, please follow the show and leave us a comment, rating, or review - it truly helps support our work and we'd be really grateful! About Andrea MorrisonAndrea Morrison is a Craniosacral Therapist and channeling energy healer, and the founder of Balance From Within. After experiencing craniosacral therapy 15 years ago, she felt called to leave a 23 year career in dental hygiene and devote her work to supporting the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Fascinated by healing from an early age, Andrea has studied and blended multiple modalities into her practice including elements of massage, sound, crystals, and frequency work, creating sessions that are both subtle and profoundly transformative for the mind body and soul.
