Modern medicine is broken. So is "science" as an institution. Meanwhile, the alternative healing arts are languishing for a lack of scientific rigor. So we're building a new model for learning from the living realities of our bodies and their interconnected relationships with human society, planet and cosmos. Our objective with the School For Living Science and this podcast, is to work our way up towards the divine order standing behind material reality, transforming ourselves in the process and thereby earning the right and responsibility to steward such knowledge. We're so glad you're here!

    How I Operate My Private Practice as an Unlicensed Practitioner

    ▶️ ⁠ACCESS SECRETS OF FASCIA: https://schoolforlivingscience.com/secrets-of-fascia ▶️ ACCESS THE KINETIX 101 COURSE: https://schoolforlivingscience.com/kinetix101 🏔️ ⁠COME TO COLORADO FOR A KINETIX IMMERSION⁠: https://schoolforlivingscience.com/knt1 In this episode we dive into why Elisha chose to operate her private practice without a license since 2011, and why licensure in the healing arts restricts practitioners to addressing one narrow part of a person rather than the whole human being. We walk through the licensure system, why practitioners and clients stay stuck inside it, and how to set up a private practice without a license—through written contracts and informed consent. We also touch on how licensure and scope of practice go hand in hand, as well as how clients can begin to re-orient themselves when working with practitioners. And of course, none of this is legal advice, just our own experience and observations. //TIMESTAMPS// 0:00 – In this episode… 2:27 – Why Elisha operates without a license 10:47 – The 2015 lawyer story that made Elisha wake up 18:41 – The lay of the land: licensure and scope of practice 28:25 – What clients should know about licensed practitioners 39:50 – What actually qualifies a practitioner to help someone? 48:35 – Transform yourself first, then help people like you 1:07:43 – What a license actually is, and why the system persists 1:13:06 – The safety question: “How can you guarantee I won’t get hurt?” 1:19:07 – How to operate a private practice without a license 1:33:40 – The key to succeeding unlicensed: a promise you can back up 1:39:47 – Sourcing authority from within #ElishaCeleste #SecretsOfFascia #MyofascialReleaseTrainings #Kinetix #FascialRelease #HealingArtsModalities #LivingSciencePodcast #FasciaTrainings #KinetixFasciaRelease #RudolfSteinerHealing #RudolfSteiner #Anthroposophy #UnlicensedPractitioner #PracticingWithoutALicense #HealingArtsLicensure #PrivatePractice #PrivateContracts #PMA #PMAHealingArts #HolisticPractitionerAdvice #MassageTherapyLicense #HealthFreedom #StartingAHealingPractice #PrivateMembershipAssociation Code: TYKDP78OZBBOXLGM

    The Metabolic, Rhythmic, and Nervous Systems Explained: A Steiner Perspective

    ▶️ ⁠ACCESS SECRETS OF FASCIA: https://schoolforlivingscience.com/secrets-of-fascia ▶️ ACCESS THE KINETIX 101 COURSE: https://schoolforlivingscience.com/kinetix101 🏔️ ⁠COME TO COLORADO FOR A KINETIX IMMERSION⁠: https://schoolforlivingscience.com/knt1 In this episode we break down the three primary systems of the human organism according to Rudolf Steiner: the nervous system, the rhythmic system, and the gut-metabolic-limb system. We explore how perception and thinking relate to the nervous system, how our subconscious will shows up in our gut-metabolic-limb system, and why the rhythmic system acts as a counterbalance between the other two. Elisha also challenges the modern neuroscience view of the nervous system as something that “regulates” us and explains how understanding these three systems allows us to form a picture of our organism that reveals solutions to pain, illness and disease. //TIMESTAMPS// 0:00 – In this episode... 2:17 – 3 systems of the human organism: why they're important 13:34 – The nervous system — perception, not command 27:33 – The controversial claim: “motor neurons” don’t exist 36:12 – You’re not a puppet of your brain 45:24 – Personal story: how shut-off feelings skewed Elisha’s perception 56:19 – The rhythmic system — heart, lungs, blood, breath 1:06:18 – Blood flow and warmth as spiritual feedback 1:22:48 – Feelings as the moral mediator between thought and action 1:43:04 – The gut-metabolic-limb system — will, food, sex, survival 1:49:20 – Personal stories: subconscious motives manifesting through the body 1:59:33 – Metabolism as a direct expression of will 2:10:48 – Seeking to "fix" vs gaining self knowledge #ElishaCeleste #SecretsOfFascia #MyofascialReleaseTrainings #Kinetix #FascialRelease #HealingArtsModalities #LivingSciencePodcast #FasciaTrainings #KinetixFasciaRelease #RudolfSteinerHealing #RudolfSteiner #Anthroposophy #ThreefoldHumanBeing #ThreeSystemsOfTheHumanOrganism #NervousSystem #RhythmicSystem #MetabolicLimbSystem #ThinkingFeelingWilling #NervousSystemDysregulation #MindBodyConnection #SpiritualOriginsOfMetabolism #SelfKnowledge Code: TYKDP78OZBBOXLGM

    The 3 States and Stages of Consciousness

    ▶️ ⁠ACCESS SECRETS OF FASCIA: https://schoolforlivingscience.com/secrets-of-fascia ▶️ ACCESS THE KINETIX 101 COURSE: https://schoolforlivingscience.com/kinetix101 🏔️ ⁠COME TO COLORADO FOR A KINETIX IMMERSION⁠: https://schoolforlivingscience.com/knt1 In this episode we explore the three states of consciousness (waking, dreaming, and sleeping) and how they show up not just in our literal sleep cycles but throughout our waking life, in our thinking, feeling, and willing. We unpack why we’re typically most awake in our thoughts, dreaming through our life of feelings, and asleep in our will, and how recognizing which state we’re in can illuminate confusing bodily experiences like chronic heaviness or fatigue. We also explore the three stages of consciousness, both in individuals and the whole of humanity, and why waking up is essential for real healing. //TIMESTAMPS// 0:00 – In this episode... 11:08 – Why waking up is essential for real healing 20:48 – The “I being”: what makes humans unique 27:02 – Selfish before selfless: why the lower ego comes first 32:45 – The three states of consciousness: waking, dreaming, sleeping 45:03 – Thinking, Feeling, and Willing (in relation to being awake) 57:30 – Why this knowledge is being suppressed 1:04:08 – What people are most asleep to right now 1:10:51 – Chronic pain as an unresolved moral injustice 1:22:56 – Why we don’t feel pain while asleep 1:32:12 – The paradox: waking up means feeling more pain 1:41:35 – Liberating the witness: the first step to self-knowledge 1:48:15 – Death forces vs. life forces: why sleep regenerates 1:59:58 – The three systems: nervous, rhythmic, gut-metabolic-limb 2:10:27 – Physical, etheric, astral and I being: how they affect each other #ElishaCeleste #SecretsOfFascia #MyofascialReleaseTrainings #Kinetix #FascialRelease #HealingArtsModalities #LivingSciencePodcast #FasciaTrainings #KinetixFasciaRelease #RudolfSteinerHealing #RudolfSteiner #Anthroposophy #ThreeStatesOfConsciousness #StagesOfConsciousness #WakingDreamingSleeping #EvolutionOfConsciousness #SpiritualAwakening #PainAsAWakeUpCall #FourfoldHumanBeingRudolfSteiner #PainkillersAndConsciousness #SelfKnowledge Code: TYKDP78OZBBOXLGM

    The 4 Members of the Human Organism: Physical, Etheric, Astral, Ego

We explore what each one is made of, how they interpenetrate rather than exist as separate parts, and why understanding them matters for resolving pain, degeneration, and trauma in the body. Drawing from Elisha’s years working working clients, we connect these four members to the elements—earth, water, air, and fire—and to the deeper question of what it truly means to be a human being. //TIMESTAMPS// 0:00 – In this episode... 3:53 – The 4 members, named 7:32 – Why practitioners need to ask “what is a human being?” 18:08 – Member 1: The physical/mineral body 27:26 – Member 2: The etheric (life) body 32:40 – Member 3: The astral body — soul, urges, feelings 41:12 – Member 4: The ego organization and the “I” 53:45 – How the “I being" can transform the astral, etheric, and physical 57:29 – Pathologies of the ego: denial, delusion, dogmatism 1:11:31 – How toxicity can push the I being out of the body 1:16:30 – Pathologies of the astral body: the seven deadly sins 1:29:31 – Personal story: the knee injury and the buried pride wound 1:41:44 – Pathologies of the etheric body: degeneration, circulation, and fluid flow 1:52:58 – The etheric body as a “seed” carrying memory and karma 2:00:56 – Pathologies of the physical body: muscle and joint issues 2:07:21 – Only the “I” can intervene and create transformation #ElishaCeleste #SecretsOfFascia #MyofascialReleaseTrainings #Kinetix #FascialRelease #HealingArtsModalities #LivingSciencePodcast #FasciaTrainings #KinetixFasciaRelease #RudolfSteinerHealing #RudolfSteiner #Anthroposophy #FourMembersOfTheHumanOrganism #PhysicalEthericAstralEgo #EthericBody #AstralBody #IBeing #EgoOrganization #FasciaAndTheEthericBody #FourfoldHumanBeing #FourElementsInTheBody #RootCausesOfChronicPain #MindBodySpiritHealing Code: TYKDP78OZBBOXLGM

    The 4 Phases of Conscious Transformation (And How to Move Through Them)

    🎤 JOIN ME IN WASHINGTON DC: ⁠https://www.wisetraditions.org/elisha-celeste⁠ 🏔️ ⁠COME TO COLORADO FOR A KINETIX IMMERSION⁠: ⁠https://schoolforlivingscience.com/knt1⁠⁠ ⁠▶️ ⁠ACCESS SECRETS OF FASCIA: https://schoolforlivingscience.com/secrets-of-fascia ▶️ ACCESS THE KINETIX 101 COURSE: https://schoolforlivingscience.com/kinetix101 In this episode, we break down the four phases of conscious transformation: resistance, acceptance, understanding, and the co-creative power to transform. We explore why transformation is always happening whether we choose it or not, why resistance is the natural first response to change, and how real understanding—not just acceptance—is what allows us to actually co-create change rather than passively undergo it. We also unpack why transformation differs from simply "getting unstuck," and why that distinction matters on your healing journey. //TIMESTAMPS// 0:00 – In this episode... 7:57 – The four phases of conscious transformation, named 13:23 – The caterpillar/cocoon metaphor (Rudolf Steiner) 21:20 – Phase 1: Resistance — the practitioner's "fixing" trap 43:22 – The physics of resistance: stress calls potential into play 59:12 – What your resistance reveals about you 1:05:17 – Resistance is a mirage: you get what you actually want 1:20:04 – Phase 2: Acceptance — equanimity, not fixing 1:30:44 – Phase 3: Understanding — ways of knowing 1:43:37 – Four categories of transformation: pain, degeneration, sickness, trauma 1:50:25 – Phase 4: Co-creation — power with your body, not over it 2:02:43 – The mountain-map metaphor: learning from others vs. discovering alone 2:10:52 – Personal story: the Yosemite hike transformation #ElishaCeleste #SecretsOfFascia #MyofascialReleaseTrainings #Kinetix #FascialRelease #HealingArtsModalities #LivingSciencePodcast #FasciaTrainings #KinetixFasciaRelease #RudolfSteinerHealing #RudolfSteiner #Anthroposophy #FourPhasesOfTransformation #HowToTransformADifficultPattern #WhyCantIChangeTheWayIAm #WhyAmIStuckInLife #HowToGetUnstuck #WhyCantIAcceptReality #AcceptancePractices Code: TYKDP78OZBBOXLGM

    Do You Know What You're Feeling and Why?

In this episode we explore the six types of feelings that make up our inner life: instincts, impulses, intuitions, sensations, emotions, and feeling states. Though we often call all of these experiences “feelings,” they arise differently, carry different information, and call for different responses. We also unpack why so many of us feel confused by our feelings, the importance of clearly naming our feelings, and how feelings act as a portal to understanding the whole human organism: physical body, etheric body, astral body and I being. Drawing from 18+ years in private practice, Elisha shares how waking up to what we feel (and why we feel it) leads to real freedom. //TIMESTAMPS// 0:00 – In this episode... 9:10 – Why naming a feeling correctly matters 15:46 – Esoteric physiology: physical, etheric, astral, "I" 23:36 – Why "pain" isn't actually a feeling 32:34 – "Feelings are for the soul what food is for the body" 36:17 – Take inventory: which feelings do you never feel? 43:07 – The six types of feelings, named 51:06 – Feeling Type 1: Instincts 1:07:07 – Feeling Type Type 2: Impulses 1:15:02 – Feeling Type 3: Intuitions 1:19:41 – Feeling Type 4: Sensations 1:30:59 – Feeling Type 5: Emotions 1:55:17 – Feeling Type 6: Feeling states (soul states) 2:07:54 – Quick recap of all six types 2:10:00 – Levity vs. gravity: why you feel heavy or light (esoteric explanation) 2:36:09 – The "I'd rather feel ___ than ___" exercise 2:43:58 – Why understanding feelings replaces hacks and protocols #ElishaCeleste #SecretsOfFascia #MyofascialReleaseTrainings #Kinetix #FascialRelease #HealingArtsModalities #LivingSciencePodcast #FasciaTrainings #KinetixFasciaRelease #RudolfSteinerHealing #RudolfSteiner #SixTypesOfFeelings #TypesOfFeelings #UnderstandingYourFeelings #EmotionsAsFeedback #FeelingsVsEmotions #PrimaryEmotions #ChronicPainEmotions #FasciaRelease #AstralBody #EthericBodyAndMemory #Anthroposophy Code: TYKDP78OZBBOXLGM

    Why We Get Stuck (And How to Break Free)

In this episode, we unpack the three reasons we get stuck: thinking untrue thoughts, harboring unresolved feelings, and being unfree in our will. To understand the phenomenon of "stuckness" we draw on Rudolf Steiner's body of work and my 18+ years in private practice. I share real client stories of getting unstuck, including one client’s resolution of eight years of back pain and another’s breakthrough after 19 years of hip pain. We also unpack the important differences between getting unstuck and experiencing true transformation. //TIMESTAMPS// 0:00 – In this episode... 5:40 – The three reasons we get stuck 12:21 – The 3 stages of consciousness 18:39 – Why we're asleep to our own feelings 24:56 – Reason 1: untrue thoughts 28:18 – How childhood beliefs become "truth" 36:55 – The "gatekeeper": defending our untrue thoughts 44:52 – Reason 2: unresolved feelings 48:04 – "I'd rather feel strong than helpless" 59:08 – Reason 3: unfree in our will 1:06:49 – The solution: simple, not easy 1:14:02 – Client story: 8 years of back pain, solved in one session 1:22:25 – Client story: Desiree's 19-year hip pain breakthrough 1:35:00 – How to actually think true thoughts 1:45:32 – Unstuck vs. transformed: the ball of yarn and the butterfly #ElishaCeleste #Kinetix #WhyWeGetStuck #WhyAmIStuck #WhyAmIStuckinLife #HowtoGetUnstuck #SecretsofFascia #HealingArtsModalities #LivingSciencePodcast #FasciaTrainings #KinetixFasciaRelease #RudolfSteiner #RudolfSteinerHealing Code: TYKDP78OZBBOXLGM
