    Season 3 Episode 12 Your Darkness Is A Doorway: The Importance Of Facing The Dark Parts Of Ourselves

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode I share some of the shadow work that I am undertaking right now. Shadow work embraces the darker aspects of ourselves that all too often we choose to suppress, ignore, push down or avoid entirely. This can be for all sorts of reasons: Out of fear, ignorance, lack of capacity, shame, guilt or avoidance. For some it may just feel too painful to begin to explore these shadowy places. It can be just too scary, too consuming, too much. There are amny ways to explore the dark within ourselves, through our practice, with therapists, spiritual guides, plant medicine and so much more. It is important to have support, to have a guide.  It can be the most challenging thing we will ever undertake, but, if we can walk through that dark doorway, there is a wealth of treasure waiting for us on the other side. Shakti make weird and wonderful spiky accupressure mats that I LOVE. I use mine every night to help ease tension in my muscles, help me unwind and relax for a beautiful nights sleep.

    Season 3 Episode 11: Walking The Camino One Step At A Time With Tamara (Cuchira) Levinson

    Send us Fan Mail I did a thing earlier this week. I booked my place on a trip walking part of The Camino from Portugal to Spain, a journey of 156km. This trip is happening next year with the amazing Tamara (Cuchira) Levinson. She walked this same walk only a few weeks ago and I was glued to her stories as she made her pilgrimage. I couldn’t wait to have her back on the podcast to hear all about her journey.  This is a high energy conversation as we talk about Tamara’s experiences on a spiritual, physical and intellectual level, and how feats of endurance like this can show us just how strong we are and prepare us and make us more resilient when life happens. You can probably feel the excitement between us as we talk it all through! I really hope you enjoy this one.

    Season 3 Episode 10 Quantum Physics Is The Language Of God With Daniel Zavrel

    Send us Fan Mail Hi everyone and welcome to Season 3, episode 10 of the podcast. This episode is FULL. Full of a lot of wisdom, learning and lived experience. Daniel Zavrel is one of those immediately likeable, kind and warm people with a kind of non-egoic intelligence that blows my mind. I loved talking to him and I really hope you enjoy our conversation. Daniel Zavrel is the founder of Consciouz and creator of ConsciouzScan, an integrative approach designed to help people gain deeper insight into the connection between their body, mind, emotions, lifestyle and overall wellbeing. For more than 30 years, Daniel has worked in the field of health, wellbeing, stress regulation, personal development and human performance. Throughout his career, he has trained and coached thousands of people and worked with organisations including Accenture, PwC, Philips, Unilever, Achmea, ASR and many others. He has also worked in professional football as a mental coach, contributing to championship-winning teams at PSV Eindhoven and AZ Alkmaar. At the heart of Daniel’s work is the belief that sustainable wellbeing begins with awareness.  Rather than looking only at symptoms or isolated parts of a person, he is passionate about exploring the human being as an interconnected system. This philosophy led him to develop ConsciouzScan, which combines advanced scanning technology with coaching and a holistic interpretation of physical, mental and lifestyle-related patterns. The scan can provide insights into areas such as stress and nervous-system balance, energy, recovery, nutrition, emotional wellbeing and other factors that may influence how a person feels and functions.  These insights are then used as a starting point for greater awareness, personalised coaching and sustainable change. Daniel’s approach is also deeply influenced by more than 25 years of experience with yoga and contemplative practices. He is a trained Iyengar Yoga teacher, Mindfulness trainer and HeartMath heart-coherence coach and trainer. His professional background also includes NLP, life coaching and a broad range of approaches to personal transformation, resilience and consciousness. For Daniel, yoga, mindfulness, heart coherence and ConsciouzScan are not separate disciplines. They all point towards the same fundamental question: how can we become more aware of what is happening within us, restore balance and live with greater consciousness? Today, Daniel trains a growing international community of ConsciouzScan coaches, works with individual clients and organisations, and speaks and teaches about wellbeing, stress, resilience, consciousness and the body-mind connection. Alongside his professional work, Daniel is a father of seven and continues to integrate yoga, meditation and spiritual practice into his own daily life. His wider mission through Consciouz is to contribute to global wellbeing by helping people understand themselves more deeply and make more conscious choices about the way they live, work and care for themselves.

    Season 3 Episode 8: Hold Yourself - A programme To Reclaim Your True Nature

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode I talk all about my baby, not an ACTUAL baby but my Yoga Programme, Hold Yourself, a 12 week 1:1 online programme designed to help women who suffer from chronic anxiety, feelings of unworthiness, over thinking, anxious attachment and so much more. The first round of Hold Yourself is nearly over and I've been blown away by some of the incredible results these women have achieved: Lower blood pressure, sleeping better, feeling calmer and less reactive, finally feeling in touch with their bodies. Beginning to love themselves, finally giving themselves permission to rest and put themselves first. Feeling stronger, more resilient, braver, bolder. This isn't a cure all programme, but a deep dive into yourself. A reclamation of your own sense of self, the true self that is confident, at peace and at ease. This is a reclamation of the woman who knows her worth, stands strongly on her own two feet and knows she can weather the storms that life throws at her. Developed from all the yoga practices I have learned over the years and from my own, very personal experience, this is a programme for women who want to feel joy, ease and freedom again. Who want to connect to their bodies innate wisdom, who want to be able to confidently live according to their own inner voice.  The next round of Hold Yourself is opening in the autumn. There are only a handful of places, as this is a high touch 1:1 programme. Its not for everyone and that's ok. if its for you we will know on the first discovery call. If any of this resonates with you and if you feel called, please do get in touch. I'll also be offering all of my listeners an exclusive discount. My details are below.

    Season 3 Episode 7: Reclaiming The 13 Sacred Nights Of The Winter Solstice: A conversation with Lara J Day

    Send us Fan Mail This is a conversation FULL of healing modalities. This is a conversation that shows just how exploring one practice can lead to many, many more.  Lara J. Day is an author, movement educator, and someone who has spent more than three decades helping people reconnect with the intelligence of the body, the rhythms of nature, and the deeper meaning beneath ritual. Her primary focus, centres on the tangled, often hidden history of our holidays and the urgent need to reclaim them. She is the author and creator of The 13 Sacred Nights Oracle, a non-denominational Winter Solstice practice published by Beyond Words. Her research into the spiritual, mythic, and historical roots of our holiday traditions revealed how our rituals have been repeatedly reshaped to influence the behavior of the masses. Her mission is simple and bold: to return the Soul to the Solstice, and the "holy" to all of our holidays. The 13 Sacred Nights Oracle is a 52-card deck and guidebook that creates a 13-day Solstice practice beginning on December 21st, with each night corresponding to a month of the coming year. It's designed to help people slow down, reflect, receive guidance, and set meaningful intentions from a place of stillness rather than frenzy. A direct and meaningful alternative to the revolving door of shopping, sugar, and alcohol that our holidays have become. She is also the founder of Neurogenic Qigong, a healing modality that blends Chinese energy medicine with tension and trauma-releasing tremor work. This somatic practice supports nervous system regulation and helps people reconnect with their own inner intelligence, which she finds is often exactly what's needed before someone can truly receive the gifts of a ritual practice. You can buy The 13 Sacred Nights Oracle Deck on Amazon Here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sacred-Nights-Oracle-Tradition-Guidebook/dp/1582708843 And find out more about her offerings and how to work with her here: www.larajday.com Shakti make weird and wonderful spiky accupressure mats that I LOVE.
