Intuition, Energy Medicine & Personal Power | Ep 118

This episode is for you if you’ve been struggling with feeling spun out or paralyzed (or even both!) by life’s circumstances. Today I’m delving deep into intuition, energy medicine, personal power, and how this all relates to my “witchier side.” I talk a lot about the solar plexus and all the ways it manifests in our lives, how it feels to be out of balance with it, and ways you can harness your own unique energy to step into your power and regain a sense of control with your health - and in your life.

In this episode:

-How I got into what I call “energy medicine” [10:52]

-How energy medicine shows up in my work [16:44]

-“The fluff” and why I felt the need to branch off in a different way with energy medicine [17:11]

-Why I rejected the term “healer” in the past and the role personal responsibility plays in my practice [19:44]

-Intuition: what it is, what it’s not, and how to better recognize intuitive signals to help make decisions for yourself [26:01]

-Quick breakdown of the chakras, your solar plexus, and how it relates to your personal power [35:44]

-Diving into how your 3rd chakra energy allows you to show up in the world, and both the mental & physical the struggles that come when it’s out of balance [37:52]

-Control, powerlessness, and the particular relevance of the solar plexus in the healthcare world right now [40:23]

-What’s crippling some people (and throwing others into overdrive) and why this is SO important to understand in order to heal [43:05]

-The two patterns I’ve seen emerge in people’s response to 2020 and how it all ties to either an excess or deficiency in your 3rd chakra [44:31]

-Ways to heal yourself and bring balance back to your solar plexus [50:21]

-Harnessing your “Good girl gone bad” energy, what it means to fill your cup, and healing a deficient 3rd chakra [55:54]

-Bringing back into balance a 3rd chakra in excess (an ongoing practice for me!) and ways to disperse all that energy [1:01:38]

-Evaluating technology use and what it means for an excessive or deficient 3rd chakra [1:06:46]

-In the moment things to do for your 3rd chakra [1:10:45]
