    Your Spirit Guide on Speed Dial: Trusting Your Intuition | Cindy Anderson #48

    In this episode of Enlightened Connections, Lisa talks with Cindy Anderson, founder of Soulpiphany and creator of Your Spirit Guide on Speed Dial, about spirit guides, intuition and our connection with the spiritual world. Cindy shares how, after 40 years of following more conventional ideas of success, she discovered her own connection with her spirit guides and began developing a practical way to help others recognise that connection for themselves. They explore:• What spirit guides are and who may be part of our spiritual support team• How we can recognise the physical sensations associated with spiritual guidance• Cindy’s “fingerprint signature” approach to identifying our own intuitive signals• Why guidance from the spiritual realm can feel different from advice we receive from other people• The ways Western culture has historically discouraged our connection with intuition and spirituality• The possibility that more people are now beginning to awaken to these abilities• Lisa’s own recent experience of receiving unexpected spiritual guidance during a health scare and an important life decision Cindy also shares a free 5-day coaching experience for listeners who would like to begin exploring their own connection with their spirit guides. A fascinating conversation about intuition, trust, spiritual connection and learning to recognise the guidance that may already be around us.

Heather shares her experiences of spiritual transformation and “ascension symptoms,” the making of her documentary Voice of the Earth, and what her work with cymatics has taught her about the physical effects of vibration.

    Are You Still Living by Childhood Decisions? | Lisa Aston Michael #45

    Why do some of us struggle to finish what we start, even when we really want to? In this unexpected solo episode of Enlightened Connections, Lisa Aston Michael shares a surprising personal epiphany that connected a childhood experience with a lifelong pattern around self-doubt, failure, judgment and unfinished projects. The insight arrived while Lisa was half-awake, seemingly dropping into her awareness rather than being consciously worked out. It took her back to being around nine years old, riding her pony in a dressage test when her mind suddenly went completely blank. Could that seemingly insignificant childhood experience have helped shape the belief: “I don’t finish what I start”? Lisa explores the fascinating connection between subconscious patterns, intuition, personal transformation, spiritual awakening and the Higher Self, and asks whether these unexpected moments of clarity might be part of a deeper process of clearing and awakening. Could an epiphany be more than simply discovering something new? Perhaps we're sometimes just finally ready to see what has been there all along.  In this episode: Why we may abandon things when we're getting close to finishingHow childhood experiences can shape beliefs about ourselvesThe difference between an identity and a learned patternSubconscious processing and intuitive insightThe Higher Self and the “Observer”Could our Guides help us see what we're ready to clear?What “clearing” and “awakening” might actually meanMoving from self-judgment to curiosity#Intuition #SpiritualAwakening #PersonalTransformation #HigherSelf #SelfDiscovery #SubconsciousMind #InnerHealing #SpiritualJourney #EnlightenedConnections SOCIALS: www.lisaastonmichael.com FB: @lisaastonmichaelofficial https://www.facebook.com/groups/enlightenedconnectionspodcast  Insta: @lisaastonmichaelofficial Insta: @enlightenedconnectionspodcast At Enlightened Connections, I share trusted resources, tools, and products to support you and your animal companions.

    Are We Trying Too Hard? The Art of Becoming Receptive to Animal Communication | Lisa Aston Michael #44

    In this solo episode of Enlightened Connections, Lisa Aston Michael explores a question many people ask when learning animal communication: Are we trying too hard? Sometimes the connection we're looking for may already be happening in subtle ways, but mental noise, expectations and the fear of being wrong can cause us to dismiss what we notice. Lisa shares her own journey into animal communication, including the unexpected experience with a Rainbow Lorikeet that first opened her awareness. She explores the many different ways intuitive information can be received; through images, feelings, sensations, words, memories or simply a sense of knowing. This episode is an invitation to slow down, become more present with your animals and get curious about those unexpected thoughts, feelings and moments of awareness. Perhaps animal communication doesn't always begin with an extraordinary experience. Perhaps it begins with simply noticing. In this episode: How mental noise can affect animal communicationWhy we often dismiss intuitive experiencesThe different ways information can be receivedWhat animals can teach us about presenceHow curiosity can help us move beyond doubtWhy the smallest moments of awareness may be the beginning of a deeper connection SOCIALS: www.lisaastonmichael.com FB: @lisaastonmichaelofficial Insta: @lisaastonmichaelofficial At Enlightened Connections, I share trusted resources, tools, and products to support you and your animal companions.

    The Hoof That Changed Everything: Holly & Lana’s Story | Holly Burns #43

    Holly Burns returns to Enlightened Connections for a deeply personal conversation about Lana (Lightning Lana), the horse she describes as her heart horse. We last spoke with Holly earlier this year about the physics of energy and conscious creation. This time, Holly shares the extraordinary journey she and Lana have taken together through pain, uncertainty, perseverance, intuition and ultimately healing. Holly is the founder of the Anatomically Correct Trim (TACT) movement, which grew from her own search for answers when Lana suffered years of unexplained lameness. Her journey led her to a much deeper understanding of the horse's hoof, and the vital role that correct hoof care can play in a horse's comfort, soundness and overall wellbeing. Holly is also a psychic medium and intuitive channel, bringing another fascinating dimension to this story of learning to listen; to our horses, to ourselves, and to that quiet inner knowing that tells us there is more to discover. In this episode, we explore: Holly and Lana's extraordinary connectionWhy healthy, correctly balanced hooves matter so much to horsesHolly's journey to developing a deeper understanding of hoof careTrusting your intuition when something doesn't feel rightThe lessons Lana has taught Holly over more than two decadesThe remarkable transformation in Lana's health and soundnessSometimes, the animal we think we're here to help becomes the one who changes us.

    Spiritual Awakening, Divine Connection & The Mastery of Energy | Michael Monk #42

    Spiritual Awakening, Divine Connection & The Mastery of Energy | Michael Monk What happens when a single spiritual experience transforms the entire direction of a person’s life? In this profound conversation, Lisa welcomes Michael Monk, a world-renowned healer, spiritual teacher, and founder of the Metaphysical Church of the Tree of Life and Avatar Energy Mastery programs. Michael shares the extraordinary journey that began in 1999 when he experienced what he describes as a direct communication with the voice of God; an encounter that changed his understanding of reality, prayer, consciousness, and human potential forever. Together, Lisa and Michael explore: * The life-changing spiritual awakening that opened Michael to divine communication* His experiences of miracles through prayer and the power of intention* Understanding God through the Father, Christ, and Holy Spirit connection* The nature of human consciousness and our relationship with universal energy* Out-of-body experiences and expanded states of awareness* The illusion of separation and remembering our spiritual nature* How metaphysical practices can support personal transformation and spiritual growth Michael shares his belief that humanity has far greater spiritual potential than we often realise, and that awakening begins with remembering the connection that has always existed within us. This is a deep exploration into spirituality, consciousness, energy mastery, and the journey of discovering who we truly are beyond the physical experience. About Michael Monk:Michael Monk is a healer, teacher, and spiritual guide dedicated to helping others awaken their connection to divine energy and their own higher potential through metaphysical teachings, energy mastery, and spiritual practice.

    Spirit Guides, Awakening Experiences & The Veil Between Worlds | Craig Meriwether (Part 2) #41

    In this second half of the conversation, Lisa and Craig Meriwether continue their exploration of past life regression, consciousness, and expanded spiritual awareness. Lisa reflects on her own experiences of spiritual visions and unusual perceptual states, and Craig discusses how these phenomena are often temporary shifts in awareness that may support personal development rather than remain permanently accessible. They dive deeper into Craig’s book Past Lives Guidebook, which blends scientific research, cultural perspectives on reincarnation, and CIA remote viewing studies into a non-linear exploration of consciousness. The conversation also highlights the pioneering work of Brian Weiss and Michael Newton, whose research helped bring past life regression into wider recognition despite early skepticism. Craig shares his personal journey from scepticism to clinical practice and explains how he now facilitates remote hypnotherapy sessions via Zoom, working with clients globally across different time zones.
