Modern Soul Speaks Modern Soul Speaks

Hey - So our summer break lasted a little longer than planned and for good reason. In today's episode, we will share all.

If you want to listen to Gemma's new podcast follow her Instagram @gemmapetherbridge for launch day info.

And sign up for her newsletter to be invited to monthly free online holistic classes.

If you're considering becoming a Lunar Coach, this week’s episode could be a perfect motivation.

In episode 23  Lina tells us all about the lunar cycles and how working with the moon's energy can maximize our manifestations but also deepen the healing of anything we want to release and let go of.

This week Lina is back to tell us all about how she became a Moonology Coach as well as topics like, how she found her own spiritual path.

Rachel and Gemma ask her a mix of their more classic questions, as well as an array of questions specific to her modality, Lunar Cycle Coaching.

Lunar Cycles is the topic we will be diving into for the next two weeks. Have you ever wondered how to work with the moon, what the different phases mean and how they might affect you? Lunar Cycle Coach, Lina Della Luna, joins Rachel and Gemma to tell all.

This week Moonologer, Lina will walk us through the phases and the correlating activities we can carry out during each one. You will learn how working with the moon can supercharge your manifestations, while also reestablishing a deep connection to nature at the same time.

This week Rachel and Gemma interview ‘When Still Waters Speak’ founder, LiYing, to find out more about what drew her to Tea Ceremonies and how she started her spiritual journey.

Following on from last week’s episode when LiYing demoed a ceremony, this time Gemma and Rachel have the chance to ask her many more questions about her own experiences with tea. They hear how she fell in love with the ceremonies and she talks through her favourite spiritual resources and how she creates a sacred space to host ceremonies.

If you would like to purchase Live Tea for yourself, here are the suppliers LiYing suggests:

Global Tea Hut 

Living Tea

To stay in contact with LiYing, visit her website or follow her on Instagram at @when_stillwaters_speak.

This week we invite you to sample a virtual Tea Ceremony.

Founder of When Still Waters Speak, LiYing, joins us to talk about and let us witness the ancient ritual of drinking tea in ceremony.

The episode starts with LiYing explaining many of the concepts involved with this beautiful art. She then talks us through what would happen in a ceremony, explaining what she is doing as she goes. While Rachel and Gemma follow along with their own cup tea.

Afterwards, both ask a collection of different questions so you can understand every aspect of the ritual.

If you would like to see the video of LiYing talking Rachel and Gemma through the ceremony head to our @ModernSoulSpeaks feed. Also, as LiYing highlights, normally these ceremonies are done in silence so we would both recommend attending one of her virtual ceremonies so you can witness that for yourself. We have both attended silent ceremonies and would strongly recommend it as a meditative experience.

If you would like to purchase Live Tea for yourself, these are the suppliers LiYing suggests:

Global Tea Hut

Episode 20 is an episode with a difference! 

We get lots of questions about ourselves; usually how we got into spirituality, what inspires us, what we’re working on, our next projects, what we like and dislike about the spiritual community, etc. so we thought we would answer these in one episode by asking each other the questions (and more) than we usually ask of our guest speakers! 

If you’ve been listening to our recent episodes, you’ll know that there’s been a big project that Gemma has been working on for the last few months and in this episode she’s able to announce what the project is - something channeled and which has lots of pages! ;-) 

We’re also excited to announce we’re reformatting our episodes - in the next few weeks we’ll be taking a short break (not long - just a week or two) to work on a new series of episodes, but first we have some wonderful interviews coming up over the coming weeks. In our new format, we’ll be doing a deep dive for about 6-8 episodes on one specific topic - this might be crystals, chakras, nutrition, emotional eating, Atlantis and Lemuria, Wicca, 5D and other topics. 

If you have any requests of topics you would like to hear about, please DM us via @modernsoulspeaks on our instagram.
