    Spiritual Psychosis, Disassociation, and Red Flags on your Spiritual Journey with Shanila Sattar

    Spiritual Psychosis, Disassociation, and Red Flags on your Spiritual Journey with Shanila Sattar

    We’re talking spiritual psychosis, disassociation, and other red flags on your healing journey. We're kinda talking about a sensitive subject. There's a very common occurrence that happens on the spiritual, self-exploration, healing, personal development journey that not a lot of people know about and these are definitely red flags you need to look out for on your own spiritual journey. Especially if you are prone to addiction, additive thinking, are neurodivergent, or have a history of complex trauma many of these signs are often missed or ignored.

    Rewilding, Liberation, and Black Girl Country Living with Hillarie Maddox

    Rewilding, Liberation, and Black Girl Country Living with Hillarie Maddox

    Flow Breathwork Facilitator Student Spotlight Series
     
    Meet Hillarie Maddox of @blackgirl.countryliving
    Hillarie is a nature connection educator who experienced a profound shift after moving from the city to the country and connecting to her roots. She believed that a good job was the key to happiness, until she found deep healing and joy in being in nature.
     
    She says:
    My garden introduced me to mindfulness and that's when I began formal meditation.
     
    Meditation raised my awareness of my thoughts and breathwork became the key to transmuting the feelings behind them.
     
    After working with a breathwork coach for several months and finding deep transformation, I wanted to offer that same support to other people in my community.
     
    In this conversation we chatted about
    Rewilding and reclamation of connection to land
    Liberation through mindfulness, slowing down, and breathwork
    Journey to becoming a flow breathwork facilitator committed to community and accessibility.
     
    Check out Hillarie's work @blackgirl.countryliving!

    Move over boss babes

    Move over boss babes

    Move over boss babes. This era is over. We’ve come a full circle from girl bossing too close to the sun and now you can relax. Many entrepreneurs are going to realize that the hyper GO GO GO styles of entrepreneurship are not sustainable, especially in the healing arts. You’re not really meant to follow pathways of being in business that are totally misaligned from what you wanted to create in the first place.
     
    So what’s arising in the place of it?
    Let’s talk.
