    Are You Using Spiritual Practice to Hide? The Truth About Spiritual Bypassing

    Have you ever wondered if your spiritual practice is actually holding you back? In this rare solo episode, Harmony Slater opens up about something she has sat with for years: spiritual bypassing — the subtle, socially praised way we use meditation, yoga, journaling, and ritual to sidestep the emotional work we most need to do.   This conversation is deeply personal. Harmony shares her own journey from ballet-driven anorexia to years of devoted Ashtanga practice, and how all of it — every early morning practice, every pose, every certification — was also, in part, a way of hiding. From her body. From her feelings. From herself.   In this episode, you will hear: What spiritual bypassing actually is — and why it is so hard to see in yourself. How yoga, meditation, and breathwork can become sophisticated tools for avoidance. Why discipline and control can shrink your world without you realizing it. The difference between observing your experience and truly feeling it from within. How healing actually happens — and why it requires relationship, not solo practice. The moment Harmony's body finally said enough through burnout and autoimmune illness. A simple 'Do Nothing' practice that reveals more than any technique. Why life itself is the real practice. Whether you have been on the spiritual path for two years or twenty, this episode will meet you where you are.  With honesty, compassion, and an invitation to stop performing and start feeling.

    The Yoga Studio Is Dying — And What Comes Next

    What does it really mean to stay devoted to a practice for three decades — and let it keep changing you?   Harmony Slater and Russell Case sit down with Jodi Blumstein: long-time Ashtanga yoga practitioner, founder of one of Chicago's first Ashtanga shalas, and the teacher who led the Mysore program at YogaWorks in Los Angeles for over 15 years. Now teaching online to a global community, Jodi brings the rare perspective of someone who has lived through the full arc of Ashtanga yoga in the West — from the early days of counting in Sanskrit with a German accent at a single Chicago class, to practicing on Oak Street Beach with Tim Miller, to navigating the post-COVID world of online Mysore.   This conversation is honest, nostalgic, nuanced, and full of lived wisdom.   In this episode, you'll discover: What it was really like to study with Tim Miller, Dena Kingsbrough, and Nancy Gilgoff — and how each teacher gave something completely different Why the traditional yoga studio business model is unsustainable — and what might replace it How Ashtanga practice should evolve as you age (and why the 'marathon' model of practice is the key) What the rise of Instagram did to the Ashtanga community (for better and worse) How Jodi found her way into online teaching — and why she's never going back to in-person The practice philosophy she now teaches: rotating series, building core strength, and adapting intelligently for the long haul What Pattabhi Jois's presence was really like in those final Lakshmipuram classes   Connect with Jodi Blumstein: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jodi_blumstein/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@jodibe4483 The Inner Rejuvenation Codes: https://harmonyslater.kit.com/inner-rejuvenation-codes-mc Join the Lightworker Mastermind:  https://harmonyslater.com/lightworker-mastermind FIND Harmony online: https://harmonyslater.com/ Harmony on IG: https://www.instagram.com/harmonyslaterofficial/ Finding Harmony Podcast on IG: https://www.instagram.com/findingharmonypodcast/ FREE Manifestation Activation: https://harmonyslater.kit.com/manifestation-activation

  7. The Beginner's Guide to Channeling: Connecting with Souls and Spirit Guides | With Eileen March

    The Beginner's Guide to Channeling: Connecting with Souls and Spirit Guides | With Eileen March

    Have you ever had a gut feeling so strong you couldn't explain it? Or created something — a painting, a meal, a song — and felt like it moved through you rather than from you? In this episode, Harmony Slater and Russell Case sit down with Stephanie Banks, a former speech pathologist turned soul channeler and teacher, to explore one of the most misunderstood and fascinating practices: channeling. Stephanie's journey began when her mother was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia. Unable to reach her mother through conventional communication, she discovered channeling through a gifted friend — and chose to communicate with her mother at the soul level. What happened next transformed their relationship and launched an entirely new career. In this episode: What channeling actually is — and what it isn't (not mind reading, not a Ouija board) How Stephanie's mother's dementia became the doorway into soul communication Why art, music, cooking, and creative flow are all forms of channeling The role of self-love in becoming a clear channel How to use your body as a compass for energetic discernment Setting boundaries in the spirit world — you have the right and responsibility Why spiritual bypassing doesn't serve us — and what genuine spiritual engagement looks like The heart's intelligence and what HeartMath Institute research reveals Connect with Stephanie Banks: Website: soulinsight.com Instagram: @stephanieintuitivechannel Connect with Harmony: Instagram: @harmonyslaterofficial  |  @findingharmonypodcast YouTube: youtube.com/@HarmonySlater CTA: Radiant Energy Method with Harmony & Angelica — DM @harmonyslaterofficial Also mentioned: HeartMath Institute and the Inner Balance Trainer Radiant Energy Method — DM @harmonyslaterofficial or see link in show notes The Inner Rejuvenation Codes: https://harmonyslater.kit.com/inner-rejuvenation-codes-mc Join the Lightworker Mastermind:  https://harmonyslater.com/lightworker-mastermind FIND Harmony online: https://harmonyslater.com/ Harmony on IG: https://www.instagram.com/harmonyslaterofficial/ Finding Harmony Podcast on IG: https://www.instagram.com/findingharmonypodcast/ FREE Manifestation Activation: https://harmonyslater.kit.com/manifestation-activation

  8. Are You a Witch? Reclaiming Magic, Intuition & the Wisdom of Nature with Eileen March | Finding Harmony Podcast

    Are You a Witch? Reclaiming Magic, Intuition & the Wisdom of Nature with Eileen March | Finding Harmony Podcast

    What does it actually mean to be a witch in 2026? Not green skin, not a broomstick — but something far more ancient, powerful, and relevant. In this episode, Harmony Slater and Russell Case sit down with Eileen March: certified life coach, trained energy healer, former midwife, and proud self-identified witch based in Calgary, Alberta. Eileen shares how she went from atheist to awakened — and what that opening has looked like in her daily life, her rituals, and her thriving community of women who gather around moon cycles, the Wheel of the Year, and the wisdom of the natural world. In This Episode: The root meaning of the word "witch" — and why it's actually a reclamation, not a rebellion How the burning times of the 15th–16th centuries turned healers and wise women into figures of fear The difference between witchcraft and Wicca (this surprises most people) What the "witch wound" is and how it shows up in modern women's lives Why identifying as a witch is a rejection of Cartesian dualism: "I am not separate from nature. I am nature." The Wheel of the Year — the ancient pagan calendar that anchors Eileen's seasonal living practice New moon versus full moon energy: what ceremonies look like for each Eclipse energy: why Eileen recommends hunkering down rather than casting spells during eclipses The neuroscience of manifestation — and why ritual and action must go hand in hand Money bowls, moon water, candle magic — what they actually are and what they're for Eileen's 12-week program "Unleash Your Inner Witch" and her year-long "Wise Wild Woman Mentorship" The books that cracked Eileen open: If Women Rose Rooted by Sharon Blackie and The Spirited Kitchen by Carmen Spinola   Connect with Eileen March: Instagram: @iameileenmarch Website & Free Witch Wound Masterclass: myluminouslife.ca Podcast: The Woo Curious Programs: Unleash Your Inner Witch (12-week) | The Wise Wild Woman Mentorship (year-long) New Moon in-person ceremonies in Calgary at Sola Strength   Mentioned in This Episode: Sharon Blackie — If Women Rose Rooted Carmen Spinola — The Spirited Kitchen The Radiant Energy Method with Harmony Slater & Angelica — beginning March 28th (find link in show notes)   Key Takeaways: Magic is not supernatural — it's the radical act of paying attention to what's already alive in and around you Ritual without action is wishful thinking. Action without ritual is exhausting. You need both. The Wheel of the Year gives you eight anchor points through the year to tune in, reflect, and renew intention Moon water, money bowls, and candle magic are tools for priming your brain to notice opportunity — not passive wishing The witch wound is real, it's collective, and healing it starts with claiming your own gifts The Inner Rejuvenation Codes: https://harmonyslater.kit.com/inner-rejuvenation-codes-mc Join the Lightworker Mastermind:  https://harmonyslater.com/lightworker-mastermind FIND Harmony online: https://harmonyslater.com/ Harmony on IG: https://www.instagram.com/harmonyslaterofficial/ Finding Harmony Podcast on IG: https://www.instagram.com/findingharmonypodcast/ FREE Manifestation Activation: https://harmonyslater.kit.com/manifestation-activation
