In episode 80 of the Igniting Change, Finding Your Fire podcast hosted by Meena Puri, titled "Addiction - Love is the Path," Meena and her guest, Dr. Donna Marks, explore addiction and the path to recovery driven by the power of love.

Dr. Donna Marks is a renowned psychotherapist and addictions counselor from Palm Beach, Florida, with over 30 years of experience. In 1989, Dr. Marks developed a chemical dependency training program at Palm Beach Community College, which has grown into a four-year degree and received the Florida Governor’s Council Award. In addition to being a certified gestalt therapist, psychoanalyst, hypnotist, and sex therapist, Dr. Marks also teaches A Course in Miracles and shares her expertise with thousands of listeners on podcasts and radio shows.

In this insightful episode, Dr. Marks shares her unique perspective on addiction and recovery. Rather than approaching addiction as merely a symptom that needs treating, Dr. Marks views addiction as a symptom of a deeper underlying issue. She explains that addiction is often rooted in a lack of love, and therefore recovery largely depends on addressing this fundamental issue.

Dr. Marks highlights the power of love to heal addiction by emphasizing the importance of self-love and self-care. She encourages listeners to recognize the power they have to transform their lives by choosing self-love and believing in their inner strength.

Join Meena and Dr. Donna Marks on this transformative episode as they explore addiction and how love is the path to recovery.

To learn more about Meena's transformative work, you can join the Inner Compass Club membership program at Inner Compass Club Membership or schedule an initial consultation with her at Ayurvedic Healing Center.

In this episode of the Igniting Change, Finding Your Fire podcast, Meena Puri explores the transformative journey of emotional healing. She delves into the significance of addressing emotions such as regret, resentment, and forgiveness in this process.

Emotions are not just emotions, they are everything that is nonphysical in our being.  Made up of emotions, thoughts, beliefs, trauma, experiences past and present – the sum total makes up this field of energy.  When this energy is sick, body gets sick.

When we don’t consciously learn how to navigate and manage our emotional world, our emotions then run our life subconsciously.  

Emotions are how we navigate our inner and outer world, they are the inner compass guiding us.  When we get triggered, feel off, it is nothing to ignore rather to take guidance from.

It's rare to find someone who is not suffering from anxiety. Untreated or treated wrongly can result in other serious mental conditions. The good news is that you can totally overcome anxiety.

Join me as I share the root cause of anxiety and very powerful technique and meditation to overcome it.

Do we draw a line in the sand or look deeper into the need for setting boundaries?  Ever wonder why we have to keep on setting boundaries with the same people over and over again?  The answer lies in looking deeper within ourselves.  When the boundaries are set from a place of fullness, love and self-worth, it not only unites us with others but expands the flow of love.  This is where boundaries result naturally out of love and respect leaving plenty of room to grow and adjust.  Listen to this podcast for more.

Learn how to apply these principals in our life, bringing this work into reality.  Applying the greater awareness of your self in your life, to live it, to be it, you recognize that you are love and you are allowing your true self to blossom.  With every conscious choice we make, we bring duality into unity.  Anchoring of Heaven on Earth is what brings your entire life's journey to a Full Circle of Love within you.  It is our conscious choice to choose freedom and the Heavens are giving you the Keys to achieve your freedom in ways that honors all life.

We are all served a little dollop of worthlessness as it provides a contrast to recognize worth. Remember the worth is God given, it is not a function of our achievements, successes or failures, our possessions, our relationships or our looks. The only requirement for claiming self worth is that we are born in this planet. We are worthy enough for this human life, we are worthy to learn the lessons that our sole has put in place for us, we are worthy enough to heal and become whole.  Trusting and surrendering is our ultimate shield.

Life continues to mirror that which we need to see and heal within ourselves. The mind rationalizes it away and it is not wrong, sometimes we need just that in order to do life.  Remember our purpose is to heal the pain not necessarily to understand it. Understand how to trust the unknown and step into the heart of God and surrender.  Finally to appreciate the suffering for it brought you to God. We fill in whatever words we are comfortable with instead of "GOD", remember it is the generating, organizing and destroying forces of the universe that are always working to maintain balance.

Understanding that all of life is energy and we are part of the collective energy and are affected by world's energy. Accepting "what is" is a big field filled with mind made concepts like guilt/shame/blame.  Underneath all of this and all of anger is the desire to experience love.  We chase this desire deep into our hearts not into the world.  By accepting "what is" is how we free the energies of pain and suffering.

About Meena Puri

When I stepped into a Yoga class some 30 years ago, I had no idea that it would not only become my life's work and calling, but would lead me to expand and deepen its meaning via a larger Vedic Science, Ayurveda.  This is the power of a single step into the Unknown.

Like you, I have encountered many challenges in my life and the path of Yoga and Ayurveda has given me the inner strength, insights and wisdom to turn those challenges into opportunities for growth and evolution. Ayurveda is the living knowledge that I haven't only studied but have lived the teachings through my personal experiences. I am convinced that we can heal from anything and I hold that belief for my clients even when they don't.  I truly wish for you to heal from the inside out and live the life you dream to live and I believe you can.

Prior to fully coming into this work, I worked in the Corporate world; combined with my personal stress during that time created the perfect storm for me to wake up.

In episode 78 of "Igniting Change, Finding Your Fire," Meena Puri explores the idea of living from the inside out. Meena encourages listeners to realize that the answers we seek are found within us, and we can only stray from ourselves for so long before we return home.

We all must come to the realization that the answers we seek are only found inside.  We can only stray from ourselves for so long. Sooner or later, we must return home to ourselves.  

 I can say this with conviction. 

Being born and raised in a family in India - a place of rituals and norms and the only guide seemed to be what others would say.  Keeping quiet was applauded, being a martyr was admired.  My journey was to shed all of it. It wasn't easy, but it was so worth it.  

 I often wondered who these other people were only to realize that it was nothing but a mere reflection of our own lack of courage - others were a mere crutch.   

 The joy and success we seek is born out of freeing our soul from the conditioning and programming so we can live a life that is internally driven and not externally imposed. 

Humanity is at cross roads where the old ways are at odds with the new vision.  Our soul will choose light.  

A new day is dawning! Can you sense that? 

I had no idea when I created Inner Compass Club, that my vision would expand so much more than what I began with.  I started with emotional healing, but it's going to go way beyond that. It's a movement, an affirmation, and a commitment to oneself to live from the inside out.  The true compass is within each one of us.  

Inside the Inner Compass Club Membership, you will find the teachings, meditations and community.  New content will be continuously added - whether it is nutrition, lifestyle, relationships, spirituality, evolution and ascension. My vision is to free all of us from the bondage of programming in all areas of our lives. 

We can either chase or we can find. 

End the chase!  Turn Inward!

Why is it that in spite of having information galore, we continue to struggle with eating, nutrition and our health?  Perhaps it's not in the information on what we eat rather how we relate to food.  Over the decades when corporations took over the food supply, our cooking and nutrition needs, we got lost in the choices, drowned in the information and perpetually got on the path of weight loss and ongoing feud with food.  Tune in to learn how you can establish a healthy relationship with food and use food as medicine to heal, to nurture, to nourish and sustain your vitality.

What to do when we feel scattered, overwhelmed and out of sorts. I share some of the things I do.

Body is the best medicine for the mind; but looking for something always outside of us, we seldom pay attention to where out thoughts/emotions land in the body. Listen to some of the ways that you can pay attention to the body and disperse the energy that has accumulated there.

Our chakras have imrints of all of our thoughts/emotions. Healing is about clearing the chakras of the old energy and fill it with light.

Ultimately, the merging and healing of all emotions happen in the heart.

This is all Ayurveda, it has solutions for our Mind Body and Soul. We are integrated beings, when we bring consciousness into everything we do, our whole mind body and soul is involved.

In episode 77 of the Igniting Change, Finding Your Fire podcast, titled "Trauma and Love," host Meena Puri explores the profound connection between trauma and love.

Meena emphasizes that trauma and love are two sides of the same coin. When we have unresolved experiences that we haven't fully processed or metabolized, our longing for love often becomes a chase. We tend to seek love externally, disconnected from the love that resides within ourselves.

The unprocessed experiences occupy our subconscious mind and drain our energy, similar to undigested food. However, Meena suggests that by metabolizing our experiences, we can transform them into their highest expression, which is love. Metabolizing involves fully processing and integrating our past experiences, allowing us to release their hold on us and tap into the highest energy of love.

Join Meena Puri on this enlightening episode as she explores the intricate relationship between trauma and love, providing valuable insights and guidance on how to reconnect with love within ourselves.

To heal at emotional level is to heal the energy and to heal all illnesses of mind and body at the root. Now is the time to heal and we invite you to take this opportunity with my upcoming course - 6 Steps to Emotional Freedom, held on Tuesdays, July 19th and July 26th, from 12-2:30pm EST

The course has limited seats available and I encourage you to register NOW.  Here is the link for details and registration

Anger is the most potent energy, emotion.  It has the power to move deeper emotions within us.  Perhaps this is why we fear anger and suppress it.  Listen to find you what those reasons might be.

Join our last FREE Webinar of the Masterclass Series, The Intelligence of Emotions.

From Emotional Addiction to Emotional Resilience – June 28th, 3pm EST.  Registration link here  The Intelligence of Emotions (ayurvedichealingcenter.com)

Tune into today’s episode to learn about emotional addiction and emotional resilience.  Yes, we can become addicted to feelings of fear, shame and overwhelm when we grow up in unsafe and unpredictable environments.  Familiarity brings comfort and it’s this comfort can keep us stuck in the old patterns and resistant to change and to heal.  We recreate the kind of relationships that bring forth the familiar feelings.  We can all ask ourselves this question?  Is there an emotion that I am addicted to?  The way out is always awareness and doing the inner healing work.  Until we heal, the patterns will repeat; another attempt from our Higher Self to grab our attention and heal this time.  Feeling what we feel is an important step in the process of healing and this results in emotional resilience – an ability to be present to a wide range of emotions without being attached and moving through them.

Ever wonder why we swing in between 2 extremes in many areas of our life?  Either all in or all out, withdraw or explode.  Our emotional world is no different.  Avoiding unpleasant feelings is so natural that we hardly notice when we avoid. As children, when we see our parents argue, we leave or move away.  This innocent way of dealing becomes our habit of avoiding all unpleasantness in our adult life.  It’s not uncommon for one person to pack their bags and leave every time there is a disagreement.  The experience inside, the intensity of emotions is too much to handle.  But the reality is even when we “run away”  the experience has already happened, it gets imprinted in our energy, our nervous system.

How to we manage our emotions and stay in the middle, noticing them, feeling them but not getting swept away with them.  Tune in to today’s episode.

Listen to this solo podcast on what happens when we get emotionally triggered.  We are in the kindergarten stage when it comes to navigating our emotions, it’s because we are coming from the times when we were not allowed to express our emotions, rather to tuck them away and to make everything look like all was under control when in fact, it wasn’t.  We now have a great opportunity before us during this time to reach emotional maturity.  This work is personal, painful and messy as all of our past trauma will show up and it actually is due to the past trauma that we get triggered in the first place.

Hence the reason for me to launch and offer my Masterclass Webinar Series on The Intelligence of Emotions.  These are FREE 3 part Webinar, offered on June 14th, 21st, 28th from 12-1pm EST.  Click the link below for more info and to join

Spring is a time to add some fun in our lives and Kim Selby may just be what the doctor prescribed. Kim Selby has done many things throughout her life including wearing the title of solopreneur before the term became mainstream. She had her own fashion show production company in the San Francisco Bay area for over 20 years and worked previously at Glamour magazine and as the Fashion Director at Saks Fifth Avenue. It was while working with nonprofessional models that she realized how impactful positive coaching, a great outfit and jazzy music can be to lift a person’s self-esteem. Thus her next act was born. She became a creativity coach, held workshops to bring out the inner diva in women, and during the pandemic she became a certified yoga teacher and created her signature podcast, IGNITE YOUR SPARK. In addition to the podcast, she offers sparkle coaching, is an advocate for age positivity, writes a newsletter for women over a certain age and loves to dance!

In episode 76 of the Igniting Change, Finding Your Fire podcast, titled "FREE Will - is not FREE," host Meena Puri explores the concept of free will and the factors that often hinder us from exercising it fully.

Meena highlights the fact that we often forget our inherent ability to make choices and take action in our lives. We can leave a painful relationship, quit a job that no longer serves us, or disengage from conflicts. While this may seem straightforward, many of us find ourselves unable to take these steps. Meena poses the question of why this is the case, suggesting that it may be due to fear of the unknown, lack of courage, or a combination of various factors unique to each individual.

Although we possess the freedom to pursue our desires, there is always a price to be paid. Meena emphasizes the importance of understanding what price we are willing to pay and encourages listeners to embark on an exploration of their motivations and reasons behind their choices. It is not about judgment, but rather about gaining insight into our decision-making processes. Meena asserts that what truly matters is not necessarily the choice we make, but the underlying why behind it.

Join Meena Puri on this thought-provoking episode as she delves into the complexities of free will and encourages listeners to delve deep into their motivations and desires.

This is a solo impromptu  episode which I felt to share with you.  Our New World is already here. How are we participating in creating it?  I had written about my dream of a new world in my first book, “Healing Your Relationship With Food:  The Ayurveda Answer” The same dream is stirring in my heart now which led to me creating a book club to discuss my second book, “Wake Up and Heal: 6 Steps to Emotional Freedom” – the bigger vision is to create healing communities so those who hesitate to reach out for help can do so with confidence and ease.  What are we being called to do during this time – is a question worth asking?  No act is big or small.  What is we take an action in becoming part of the solution.  We can start anywhere.
