Another Way For Them – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In this episode, Heather discusses the intersection of parenting and spirituality, focusing on the importance of understanding children's emotions, particularly anxiety related to sports and societal expectations.

She shares personal experiences with her daughter Avery, emphasizing the need for open communication and empowering children to make their own decisions.

The conversation highlights the significance of listening to children's needs and the impact of societal pressures on their mental health.

In this conversation, Heather talks about how a rib injury became an entry point into real emotional healing.

The pain forced her to slow down and pay attention. She began breathing into the discomfort, turning inward and asking simple questions about what her body needed. As she stayed with the sensations, old memories and emotions surfaced. Each one asked to be seen and released.

Heather walks you through how this unfolded and how you can use the same approach in your own life. You hear what she asked, what came up and how her body guided her step by step.

Summary

In this episode, I explore the interconnectedness of healing, parenting, and personal growth. I emphasize the importance of being present and intentional in our lives, especially when interacting with children. 

Later I discuss the challenges of navigating relationships during personal transformation and the significance of self-reflection and setting boundaries. 

My goal of this episode is to encourage listeners to embrace change, integrate their inner child, and prioritize their peace and well-being.

Death is something that plagues all walks of life. It is something we will all face at some point and yet it's not something that gets a lot of "air" time. I guess is because we all have our own ideas about it and we don't want to make anyone uncomfortable so we stay silent on the subject. However, what if we did start sharing our thoughts and views more often? Would we reduce some fear around it?

I came across the nonprofit organization INELDA International End-Of-Life Doula Association from the back of a book I was reading. I became very interested in this organization and wanted to know what exactly an end-of-life doula was. After some email exchanges, I was put in touch with Nicole Heidbreder.

In this podcast, Nicole explained a life pattern that seemed to be following her into her calling of becoming an end-of-life doula. Her personal story is very insightful and interesting. Not only is Nicole an end-of-life doula but she is also a birth doula. She gets to witness life in both of its extremes, life, and death. She goes deep into explaining exactly what an end-of-life doula is and how it differs from hospice care, who can benefit from their care, how to become a doula through INELDA, and then how to start networking. I strongly urge you to listen to this podcast to gain a little more perspective on the end-of-life topic.

Nicole was able to eloquently explain her thoughts on the end of life and the closeness she gains with the families she works with. By presenting her career path she truly is "changing the face of dying."

To find a doula near you or if you would like to take part in their training program to become a doula you can visit them on the web at  inelda.org .

You can find Nicole on the INELDA website or follow her on Instagram @gracefulfusionofbirthanddeath.

This week I brought back my bestie, Melanie Esperon, from  Reikiroomsandiego.com . I absolutely love having her on because her energy is SO fun and she is very wise...a great combo for sure! This episode is all about taking back your sovereignty (the ability to choose the direction of one's own life, and being the exclusive authority over one's own body and mind...aka...freedom).

Mel and I discuss times in our lives when we knew there was no other option than to take back our power. It is so easy to fall pray to others' opinions, different agencies ( government, education, medical system, social media etc) and push our own thoughts to the side to be agreeable. Once you know what to look out for or what feelings come up for you, it is easier to recognize.

We also go over ways to start to take your power back and claim your life. It won't happen overnight but implementing some of these steps a little at a time can make quite a change. Some examples are:

-Balancing the masculine and feminine or right and left brain

-Being able to accept failure-learning resilience 

-Stop blaming others

-Recognizing the way you see the world isn't how the world really is

-Dive into something that feels uncomfortable without judgement 

-Start listening to your thoughts

Of course we go into much more detail about these suggestions to explain how you can integrate them into your life. If you'd like to follow Mel on IG (and I highly recommend you do❤️) you can do so by searching @reikiroomsd.

I had such an insightful conversation with Steven Noack ( trinityquantumheath.com ) a few weeks ago I absolutely had to have him on the podcast again to go a little deeper...so deeper we went! 

After having his NDE when he was a child, Steven spent a good amount of time trying to block out all the information he learned when he was unconscious. When he became an adult he realized he couldn't continue to "forget" what he knew down in his soul.

In this podcast we talk a lot about topics that aren't often discussed in the mainstream today. We talk about the quantum field, vibrations, energy, and so much more. If these are all new concepts to you I encourage you to listen and start to become curious. It's all a very fascinating rabbit hole to go down.😃

This week I did another solo podcast. I kept getting "downloads" around helping others take back more of their power so they could feel more balanced and calm. In this podcast, I share a few ideas and tricks I have collected over the years to help me stay aligned and in flow. You will learn four different ideas that I explain in great detail throughout the podcast. I will talk about:

-The zoom-out method

-Becoming your own paleontologist (Sounds funny but I explain this during the podcast)

-Talk to yourself like you would a child

- 'Peace begins with you' method

These are seemingly simple ideas. When you listen to the podcast you will think '...oh yeah, I can do that' but once the podcast is over, the work has to be done. You have to put the methods into effect to reap the benefits. One day at a time, one reminder at a time. If you stick with it you will be stunned by the power you gain over your life.

This week's podcast is a solo episode with...wait for it...YOURS TRULY. I watched a video recently with thought leader Caroline Myss. I also read one of her books years ago called Anatomy Of The Spirit. After watching the video (and thinking back to her book) I realized I'd been right to think that 'deep knowing' was real because I always knew there was a correlation between our emotions and physical body. I highly recommend reading Caroline's book.

The video I watched by Caroline was about ways we lose our power (energy) throughout our day. This is a topic I have thought about many times and even did blog posts regarding this loss of power. Finally, after watching this video I decided to sit down and do some of her recommendations which I have listed below. 

There were three main questions I asked myself and I encourage you to do the same.

What are 3 to 5 addictions you have? We all have them, they may not be the typical ones you think of like alcohol or drugs but more things like attention, the need to be right, worrying, etc. Once you identify your addictions go deeper and ask why you are addicted to them. What are you getting out of them?

What are your cravings (3 to 5)? What stories have you been telling yourself and others that keep dragging you down but you tell them anyway, and why do you tell them?

What do you feel entitled to (3 to 5)? This list got interesting for me (ha ha). If you feel entitled to fairness, for example, then go deeper and find out who you think you should get that fairness from? Are there specific people or group of people?

I went down a YouTube rabbit hole recently and I came across a video about a man named Steve Noack and his near-death experience. His story intrigued me so much that I emailed him right away! I knew his story could change so many people's views about what comes after death.

Steve is a psychic and zero-point quantum energy practitioner. A Quantum Healer has the ability to create a high frequency of life-force energy and then use that energy to place a field of high energy around an area of pain, stress, inflammation, or disease. This process is understood to amplify the body’s natural healing ability.

My conversation with Steve is one you DO NOT want to miss. He is full of so many useful insights and ways of creating peace in your life. I encourage you to learn more about Steve by checking out his website  trinityquantumhealth.com .

Our thoughts and beliefs create our reality. What happens when our thought patterns are old and outdated and no longer serve us? Theta Healer Selen Aktar explains how connecting with the theta brainwave allows a person to re-write the outdated story to something more positive with her facilitation. This work has the ability to create very quick and efficient results. The client has full control over the process and the change only happens when they allow it. Selen works from a place of love and light and it shines through the entire podcast. She is so knowledgeable and has such a passion to help the wellbeing of others. You can find Selen on her website selenaktar.com as well as on IG (@selen.o.aktar) and FB.
