    I Create My Vibe

    It happens in an instant: how many of us have lost control of ourselves in a moment of rage? How many of us have snapped at our bosses, or spanked our children and wished that we hadn't, after cooling off from the heat of the moment?
    In this episode, host H-Soul breaks down the practice and the benefits of meditation. Spoiler alert- meditation is not just for new age hippies and for the Karens of the world, but is an essential tool that Black America has the opportunity to reclaim and use to our benefit. We invite meditation coach Dameda Finney to share a few pointers on how we can begin inviting in a mindfulness practice to our everyday lives.

    I Create My Life Mindset Pt 2

    I Create My Life Mindset Pt 2

    Season 2, episode 2 of To Heal a People gets deep into both the science and the spiritual sides behind the 'I Create My Life' mindset. Whether you follow what science calls 'predictive behavior' or understand what Psalm 82 of the Bible eludes to- it all leads back to a universal truth that we are not witnesses nor victims, but creators of our own existence. 
    From this stance, we explore trauma, questioning it's purpose and the concept of alchemizing individual and collective trauma.  
    This episode is not for the feint of heart- are you ready to get to werk?

    I Create My Mindfulness

    I Create My Mindfulness

    What's stopping you from living a life of freedom? It's tempting to blame our immediate surroundings, such as circumstance, fear, or mindset, but the answer may not be as simple as you think.
    In Season 2 of 'To Heal A People', H-Soul takes us on a journey of how we can own the 'I Create My Life' mindset, beginning by diving into the shadows of our ancestry. Explore the concept of 'Maafa', the original injury which affects generations still today. This idea of the 'Great Disaster' is found in many different versions of folklore across cultures.
    Can you identify the experience of an injury that may have been handed down to you? This is found in our lived experience, in our health, and in our collective mindset: the procrastination, the self doubt, the inner anger that we feel. How are we going to heal that? That is what we are here to do.
    If you're ready to heal, if you're ready to change your mindset, join H-Soul on this journey over the next season of To Heal A People.

    Desmond Tutu on Ubuntu, Relating, and Community

    In this episode, we explore To Heal A People's 4th and final ring of the 4 Ring system of healing: Ubuntu, which means 'I am because we are.' Modern society touts individualism- but are any of us truly able to exist alone as an independent individual, fully self-sufficient without the support of others? Celebrating words of wisdom by ancestor Archbishop Desmond Tutu, we explore the inter-connectedness of all beings, and why community is so integral to our survival and our thriving.

    This episode talks about: Desmond Tutu, relationship, interdependence, Ubuntu.
