    Vicky Winkler: Nervous System Care Through Therapeutic Art Making

    What if rest didn’t require lying down and healing didn’t require fixing yourself? In this episode of Karmic Mirror, we’re joined by Vicky Winkler, founder of Wildly Creative Wellness, a therapeutic art journaling guide and nervous-system-aware facilitator helping thoughtful, busy humans reconnect with themselves through creativity and play. Vicky shares her personal journey of “doing everything right” on paper while still feeling something was missing, and how art-making became a pathway back to herself—offering rest while awake, release without pressure, and trust without perfection. Together, we explore art journaling as a somatic practice—one that quiets overthinking, supports nervous system regulation, and invites intuitive knowing to lead. Through doodling, intuitive making, and creative experimentation, this conversation reveals how play can be foundational rather than frivolous, and how safe discomfort can become a powerful catalyst for regulation, resilience, and self-connection. This episode is a playful reminder that wanting more doesn’t mean something is wrong with what you have—and that sometimes the most meaningful shifts happen when you stop trying to think your way forward and allow the body to guide the way. In this episode, you’ll hear about: 🌀 Art journaling as a gentle, accessible pathway to nervous system regulation 🌀 The difference between sleeping and truly resting while awake 🌀 How creativity helps release judgment and quiet the thinking mind 🌀 Play as a practice for resilience, confidence, and emotional safety 🌀 The ripple effect of creative confidence into daily life and relationships Connect with Vicky   Website: wildlycreativewellness.com Instagram: @wildlycreativewellness Stay Connected Karmic Mirror on Substack Follow Karmic Mirror on Instagram Connect on Facebook Find Michelle and Ally on Instagram!  To Be Magnetic (code “KARMIC” for 15% off

    The Pause Before the Push: January Feels

    In this reflective episode of Karmic Mirror, Michelle and Ally slow things down to talk honestly about January; as a moment of orientation, rather than the starting line we tend to feel pressure to sprint from. Recorded in the heart of winter, this conversation questions the pressure to set hard goals, choose a “word for the year,” or immediately know what’s next, especially when our bodies, energy, and the natural world are asking for rest, recalibration, and care. The discussion moves through the tension many of us feel at the beginning of a new year: the collective momentum of “new beginnings” alongside a deeper pull toward slowness, experimentation, and listening. Together, they explore themes of self-trust, urgency versus alignment, planting seeds without forcing outcomes, and allowing clarity to arrive through lived experience rather than pressure. This episode is about permission — to pause, to play, and to let the season shape the pace. In this episode, you'll explore: 🌀 January as a time for orientation rather than immediate goal-setting 🌀 The tension between collective “new year” energy and seasonal wisdom 🌀 Letting go of urgency and the pressure to have it all figured out 🌀 Experimentation, curiosity, and the value of planting seeds without control 🌀 Growth versus accumulation, and why more isn’t always better 🌀 Self-trust built through small, everyday moments 🌀 Honoring personal rhythms instead of following prescribed timelines 🌀 Allowing desires and direction to unfold rather than forcing clarity This episode is an invitation to meet yourself where you are, take stock of what’s present, and remember that there is time; to rest, to listen, and to move forward in a way that feels aligned.

    Dying Awake, Living Fully with Korona of Omnia Mirari

    In this episode, we’re joined by Korona, an end-of-life doula, spiritual guide, and teacher, and the presence behind Omnia Mirari. Through her hospice work, spiritual study, and lived experience, Korona helps reframe death not as something separate from life, but as an initiation that shapes how we live, relate, and love. The discussion moves between death and devotion, fear and surrender, grief and joy, and what it means to remember who we are beneath identity, story, and conditioning. Korona shares her near-birth experience, a profound out-of-body experience, and the insights that led her to sit with people at the end of life, to witness and be an embodiment of love. In this episode, you’ll hear about: Korona’s near-birth experience and the memory of “home”Death awareness as a living spiritual practiceWhy fear acts as a veil — and how surrender builds trustGrief and joy as simultaneous experiencesHeart memory and what endures beyond cognitionFrequency alignment and embodiment over manifestationHow end-of-life work teaches us how to live more fullyThis episode is for anyone curious about death, spirituality, grief, or the deeper questions that surface as we live with greater awareness.
