    SOLO EPISODE: Season 2 Wrap Up + What's Next for Get A Helmet

    SOLO EPISODE: Season 2 Wrap Up + What's Next for Get A Helmet

    Writing this feels bittersweet. We have been putting out weekly episodes of the Get A Helmet Podcast since February of 2020. Every single one of those episodes -- interviews, meditations, Mindful Minisodes -- are filled with so much juicy wisdom and inspiration. 
     
    Today’s podcast episode will be the beginning of a new phase for Get A Helmet. We decided it was time to take some space from the show and allow time for deep integration and creation of so many new things. 
     
    THANK YOU to all of you for listening, for sending your messages about how this show has supported you, writing reviews, listening every week and being with me since I started this show in my Grandpa’s spare bedroom with nothing but a microphone and a desire to tell stories and amplify the missions of other women. 
     
    THANK YOU to every single incredible human I had the pleasure of interviewing on the show this season. Having these conversations has been so expansive for me and everyone else listening. 
     
    So today’s episode is a reflection on Season 2 and the official beginning of this next phase of business. It’s important to normalize space, rest and integration. 
     
    We will be taking the next few months to focus on creating your Brand Documentaries, Podcasts,  growing my private membership community, The Circle and offering some very exciting group programs. 
     
    STAY TUNED, my loves. I am so grateful for this platform, for your listening ears and open hearts.

    S2, E43: How Working With Your Energy and Listening to Your Body Will Change Your Life with Holly Sloof

    S2, E43: How Working With Your Energy and Listening to Your Body Will Change Your Life with Holly Sloof

    Your intuition speaks to you through your body. 
    That HELL YES feeling of expansion in your belly. 
    That HELL NO constriction of your throat. 
     
    These are sacred messages and sometimes the mind is so loud we can not even hear them. Or maybe you do hear them but are too scared to listen.
     
    During this chat with the magical, @hollysloof we chat all things energy, reiki and the wisdom of the body. 
    I had a Reiki Reading with Holly a couple of hours before we recorded and honestly you can hear it in my voice. 
    In this episode I share what that experience was like for me, what channelled messages came through from Holly and so much more. 
     
    Here are a few other juicy  topics we hit on:
    💛 Leaning into what your body is trying to tell you and trusting it
    💛 The Reiki Reading I had with Holly that brought me so much clarity 
    💛 What Reiki is and how it can support you in every area of your life
    💛 Quieting your mind to hear what your body is trying to tell you and then actually listening and trusting it 
    💛 How important it is to invest your healing and get support you need 
     
    Make sure to go listen to receive a very special discount code for one of Holly’s Reiki Readings. 
    I just re-listened to the recording of mine the other night and DAMN. So good.

    MINDFUL MINISODE: Feeling Into What Your Body is Telling You and Releasing Anxiety with Somatic Movement

    MINDFUL MINISODE: Feeling Into What Your Body is Telling You and Releasing Anxiety with Somatic Movement

    “Stop thinking about it and go feel about it.” 
     
    I remember when Victoria Albina (@victoriaalbinawellness) said this to me on a call and damn was she RIGHT. 
     
    (Ps. Check out her podcast episode. S2, E33!)
     
    She invited me to stop trying to think through a big decision and to go DANCE about it. 
     
    When you do this, you can access your intuition. You can notice where things are living in your body. You can finally hear what your body is trying to tell you. 
     
    On this episode of the Get A Helmet Podcast I share a somatic practice for releasing anxiety.
     
    Mindful Minisode: Feeling Into What Your Body is Telling You and Releasing Anxiety with Somatic Movement
     
    We do a live somatic movement practice together on this episode so you can get a taste of this work and its power. 
     
    This practice is so powerful for connecting deeper to your body, activating your power and breaking free from anxious thoughts.

    S2, E40: How Breathwork + Following Your Intuition Can Change Your Life with Ana Lilia

    S2, E40: How Breathwork + Following Your Intuition Can Change Your Life with Ana Lilia

    I have been practicing breathwork almost every single day for a while now. Without it, I can’t see as clearly or focus as sharply. This somatic practice has truly changed my life and helped heal my nervous system.
    Today on the Get A Helmet Podcast meet Ana Lilia. Ana Lilia is a breathwork coach and intuitive guide who went from guiding her friends in her living room to hosting numerous programs and mentoring privately.
    Whether you’re a breathwork novice or expert, this episode is for you.
     
    Here’s a sneak peek of what we hit on during the episode: 
    Using breathwork as a tool to sharpen your intuition. The trauma that lives in your body + how breathwork helps you heal it. The resistance people have to doing this practice, why it’s there and how to move through it. Ana’s gift of clairvoyance and how that first showed itself during a breathwork practice. A bonus breathwork session at the beginning to ground your energy. This episode is a great way to start your day or to take on a long walk. Your breath is always here with you. Send it deep down into your low belly and let it go.
     
    How to do breathwork with Ana:

Crystal Marcella ,

Powerful

I cannot say enough good things about this podcast! It has been a constant source inspiration & strength since the day I found it. Caroline shares tips to get through the day with more ease & authenticity. Each episode has been inspiring, leaving me feeling incredibly whole & grounded.

I would recommend this podcast to anyone who has dealt with anxiety or if you want to dive into being more accepting of who you really are & get to know yourself on a completely new level.

“Get a Helmet” has EASILY become my go-to podcast & the highlight of my day.

Most Healing, Grounding, Real, Podcast EVER

Get a Helmet has helped me in so many ways - bad days/good days it doesn’t matter. Caroline’s voice is so soothing and she makes you laugh with her real and honest personality. Her interviews are so meaningfully deep and juicy, requiring you to ask yourself hard questions and explore more about what you really want out of life. She is a great interviewer and you can tell that every person she brings on the show is knowledgable about a topic that she’s wanting to learn more about herself, which makes every episode so relatable. A must listen!!!

The only podcast I listen to

I appreciate this podcast so much. Especially the guided meditations and breathing practices...they are a lifeline for me when my anxiety feels overwhelming. Thank you! (I am also, like another listener said, a fan of your voice. Very soothing.)
