Breathe Love & Magic

She said, “We always fight, but we love each other,” but she wanted to win the battles. She then admitted there wasn’t much love, yet she felt a deep connection and pull to be with him. Discover her past lives and soul contract with this man and what her guides had to say about it. Savannah’s Difficult Relationship In this past life reading for Savannah, she revealed that all she and her romantic partner did was fight. They had tough screaming matches and she created a barrier by keeping the bed piled with clothing and books to keep him away. Savannah wanted to understand why they were driven to fight and how she could fix the situation. She wanted to get back into the house they bought together, but for now she was living with family and he had the house. My client was sad that this was the state of her relationship, but she couldn’t seem to find a way around the arguments. They were harsh, cold and constant and this was wearing her down. Thinking about the statement, “We always fight, but we love each other,” made her realize that sometimes, love is not enough. On the other hand she dreamed of moving back in and redecorating. She loved that house and wanted to be in it – with him. So confusing, right? To feel compelled to battle it out, yet want to be with someone at the same time. Not an easy situation. Past Life Reading I accessed the Akashic Records for Savannah and uncovered a surprising series of lives that were about either war, battles and sword fights or peace and a spiritual life dedicated to love and the Goddess Aphrodite. Talk about contrast! She had been in several lives with this man before, often as a man herself. We always fight, but love each other was a theme that didn’t relate just to romance. They were sometimes brothers and other times from competitive, warring families. Her lives covered a lot of the planet from ancient Greece, to several countries in the South Pacific including Japan and then Manilla which came to me out of the blue. That’s when Savannah told me her family was from Manilla! What? That was amazing to find out. I had no idea and had never even seen a photo of her. Her Life Mission This time around on earth, Savannah’s mission is to stop the fighting. She’s here to learn how to give up the desire to win and instead, learn to honor and take care of herself. To do what is for her highest good, without concern over whether or not she wins the battle. But the desire to fight and win runs strong through many lifetimes and it’s not an easy thing to simply give up. The choice is truly up to her. Ready for your own Akashic Records Reading? Spirit Guides Offer Advice Then her guides came in to share their support and advice. They suggested she be around water because that would help her feel more peaceful and bring solace to her soul. Savannah said she loves the water and always feels better when she’s near the ocean or a lake. This episode is filled with fascinating insights, discussion about life lessons, making choices, difficult relationships and so much more. If you have a difficult relationship where you also say, “We always fight, but we love each other,” then listen to this episode and see if it gets you some insight as well.

Are you curious to know the secrets of a Pythian Priestess and what kind of magic she does? Find out in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast. The Oracle of Delphi Originally, the Pythian Priestess was the Oracle of Delphi in the Temple of Apollo back in ancient Greece. The oracles (usually three) were often women in midlife, taken from their families to devote themselves to the divine for the rest of their lives. Over the last few years in my past life readings, I’ve been finding clients who actually were part of the Oracle of Delphi. That got me wondering just how many oracles were there? it must have been quite a few for me to keep bumping into them. So, lots of women did this work! She’d Rather Be a Priest But my guest in this episode, Ashley Ryan, is a modern day Pythian Priestess! It all started when she was four and her two aunts, who were nuns, asked if she wanted to marry Jesus. Her immediate reply was, “No, I rather be a priest.” How precocious, right? Her aunts let her know that as a woman, she couldn’t be a priest. Then in 2013, while in college, Ashley learned about the Pythia Priestess which transformed that childhood dream into reality. Then she embarked on spiritual initiation in 2019. Search for Truth Ashley had been searching for Truth her entire life. She had been inspired by ancient philosophers like Socrates, Plato, and Lao Tzu, but the academic side of philosophy didn’t cut it. Something was missing – the esoteric, mystical aspects. The Philosophical Research Society in LA captured her attention, where she learned that magic is real. Next, she found a magical society to join, and began her initiation. When you are initiated, you are brought into an energy current and each one is dedicated to a different God or Goddess. The ancient Pythians were devoted to Apollo, but she is devoted to the Goddess Isis (Greek version) which is the Queen of Heaven. This was a life changing experience that had her looking at her values and decide what to dedicate her life and teaching what magic truly is. Her goal is to bring a more wholesome world view about magic to what has been a cold materialistic world in recent years. So, how does this work for her in modern day life? Ashley said she’s a vessel for the Goddess requiring twice daily rituals to cleanse the energy around her and prayer as well. She speaks for the Goddess. Love Unites the Universe A big part of what she helps people understand today is that there is love in the world. Not the diluted version of love like, “I love pizza,” but deep love is the force that unites the Universe and keeps the electrons moving around the atom’s nucleus. The other message she shares is unity and acceptance of others. Currently, many people can barely tolerate others with differing viewpoints, etc. Having entered the age of Aquarius, there is a shift away from dogma and to see that we are all human. We must respect each other since we are all flesh and blood and a reflection of the divine. Tarot and the Elements Magic is the creation, direction, and manipulation of energy. In our world we have the four elements of fire, air, water and earth. Magic means that you not only control the elements outside of you, but also how psychologically you work with the elements. Here’s a secret: The elements are hidden in the Tarot cards. Cups are the water element and deal with emotions and intuition Wands are the fire element which is about passion, drive, and creative spark Swords are the air element which relates to your thoughts and sense of right and wrong Pentacles are the earth element which relates to everything physical Domestic Violence When Ashley works with her clients, she’s usually working with the emotions. A lot of the magic she does today is around domestic violence, helping people escape from negative, harmful situations. She also helps clients reevaluate how they got into the situation, how to not repeat the pattern, and finally break free of it. This was so surprising to me! That’s quite a service. Building up self-worth and the fire and confidence to take a stand for themselves and say, “No more.” This is often not an easy shift for people. Ashley does this work as a labor of love for her clients and says she has a lot of success. Good to know! Candle Magic & Sigils Most of the rituals Ashley does with her clients use candle magic because this incorporates the four elements plus a fifth – spirit. The candles represent alchemy. She’s a big proponent because of the psychology of ritual. our human minds are conditioned to understand symbolism. By studying the flame of the candle, and putting the intention there, people can feel that intention growing inside them. There’s a lot of research being done now in accredited universities about how rituals impact our subconscious mind. She draws a sigil for clients which is from chaos magic. Curious about ceremonial magic? Every night before the client goes to bed for two weeks, they are instructed to trace the sigil with their eyes which imprints this into the subconscious mind. They also listen to a recording of binaural beats at 6 hertz to get their brain waves not a more receptive state – theta and delta waves. This changes the neural pathways and prepares the client for the energetic influx about to happen to make the desired life changes. Then on the new or full moon, depending on the kind of magic, they will destroy the sigil through one of the elements. They rip it up, throw it into the air, or burn it, flush it down the toilet or let it go down the drain, or lastly bury it. Need some love magic?

My guest finds some of this work tiring. When she thinks about the earth oceans, and how microplastics are destroying the environment. We need massive change and a lot of that is dependent upon what we worship. So many people today worship money vs. a God or Goddess. Ashley wants to be clear – she is not a princess but a handmaiden, serving the Goddess. She does not wield her own power but that of the Goddess and everything she does she tries to do within that Goddess light. You Don’t Walk Alone One important point Ashley made is that she doesn’t walk alone on this path. There are many like her working for the same good. She also loves living in Los Angeles because of the magic that is so prominent in the area. Being around open-minded people who want to exchange ideas is very exciting for her. She loves a good open conversation! I asked her how she notices the magic around her. Ashley is blessed to live near nature in Los Angeles which is uncommon. Plus, she has a little garden and loves her cat Euphrates, an orange tabby cat. There is a whole lot more including talking about ceremonial magic, rituals, a wild magical experience, and why she thinks magic is childish which makes it powerful!

Tell your story and release stored emotions from your body by using the power of gesture. My guest Jen Aks will explain this joyful process in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast. How Did the Power of Gesture Begin? My first question was how did she come up with the Power of Gesture? Jen said she didn’t come up with it. This truly came through her soul and she feels like a passenger on a train being taken through and guided in this experience. It is pure soul work. She’s been a movement practitioner and a dance educator for three decades and she has been moving through life in all sorts of ways. But now, Jen has paired her love of movement with her passion for emotional wellness to help you tell your story with the power of gestures. Early in her life, Jen struggled a lot because she could not find the words to express herself and communicate in the way she wanted to connect. She felt stuck in her body and movement became her language. Jen says dance saved her life and brought her kind of communication to the world. Breaking COVID’s Isolation A few years ago when the pandemic hit, she organically wanted to help people stay connected to their bodies. Knowing first hand what its like to feel disconnected and disembodied, Jen knew the pandemic made things worse with so much isolation happening. Jen decided to try out an idea she had and worked with people she was close to. Her aim was to help them move through their emotions and reconnect them to their bodies. During this process, she just kept saying the words “The power of gesture” as she did this work with people. Over time, Jen realized this process she created to tell your story is a real method that is helping people. The work has been really transformative for her clients and for herself. Jen has free 30-minute workshops every Tuesday at 10am ET and Wednesday at noon ET, because she wants people to give this a try. You Want Me to Move? My first reaction to hearing about this process was, “That is not for me.” I’m not into ecstatic dance and that sort of thing (nothing wrong with it, just not my way of expressing myself). But for some reason, (spirit nudging perhaps) I decided to try a free session. I showed up feeling dread for what Jen might make me do in this online workshop. But there was none of that awkward, embarrassing feeling at all! On zoom, we were in our own little boxes in the gallery view. Everyone stayed seated, and just moved our arms or bodies from the hips up. There was no dancing! It was easy and fun and I fell in love with the process. Tell Your Story in a Group Jen also does this with larger groups where each woman created a gesture and practiced it. Then she put on the music and each woman did her gestures, which we all followed. One by one, we did every woman’s gesture to music all in a row and it was a total blast! I was shocked at how uplifting and joyous this exercise was. That’s why I wanted to have Jen as a guest because I want everyone to know about this practice. It’s fabulous! I asked Jen how she figured out that creating a gesture would help tell your story and help move emotions through the body. Turns out Jen knew this from how her own life unfolded, expressing herself through dance. She knew she was really communicating through her body. At first this whole thing was very experimental. Jen wanted to create an embodiment practice and she played with all sorts of ways to tap into the emotions. From gestures, to music, to repetition, she formulated this methodology which is amazing. Acknowledgement Feels Amazing Doing this in a group provides a high level of acknowledgement as you watch every person follow your personally created gestures. It also creates a safe space to open your heart as the energy spirals up and the vibration elevates. People just don’t get that kind of acknowledgement in society today. One time Jen’s coach asked her what is your mission. She quickly replied, “I want to shift the mindset of humanity one story at a time.” It really is about shifting mindset when you tell your story in a group, there’s tremendous acknowledgement through the shared experience. Surrender the Emotion The most amazing part of this is you do not need to know what every emotion is about that comes up. You just release it and let it move through. Surrender to it and let it go! That’s a beautiful thing in my opinion. I asked Jen what she’s noticed over the last few years of doing this work. Jen says she is, “Blown away by the methodology and how it has evolved.” She feels grateful watching people transform and get unstuck. “It’s been incredible.” Jen also continues to tweak the method as she goes. She’s even done workshops with teenagers, seeing them respond with joy. Her personality works well with this kind of flowing creativity, allowing her to see new possibilities all the time and add components as they come to mind. I’ve talked about working with Jen before in the episode which gave an update on my spiritual adventure. Working with her is how I created the Sunflower Pose. Short Documentaries At the start of COVID, she reached out to friends and created 150 documentaries with each woman having a chance to tell her story. These are 3-5 minute videos and 80 are on her youtube playlist. Plus, she shows them in virtual galleries through zoom from time to time. Example of Transformation Here’s an example of transformation that can occur. One client is in a 10-year relationship that she’s considering leaving. Something happened between them that has interfered with her trust. With Jen’s support, the client created gestures depicting two mounds of cement, which represent the block between them. But through her gestures, the client turned the cement mounds into sand, lowering the height to see past the top. Doing this opened up conversation between them after this amazing session – that was quite a transformation. I can vouch that this work is incredibly powerful. Give it a shot and tell your story with the power of gesture. Jen is kind, super supportive and encouraging through the entire process offering you a new way to express yourself and heal with creativity and joy. BIO – Jen Aks Jen Aks, Embodiment Coach, Speaker, Dancer and Expert in the field of communication, founded and created The Power of Gesture Method, a groundbreaking form of moving meditation. Movement saved Jen’s life and as a result, revealed her gift to teach embodied, soulful connection. Jen’s method shows us how to live authentically accepting and embracing our lived experience, recognizing that our stories matter and help us tap into the wisdom of our bodies so that we can lead all aspects of our life with clarity. The Power of Gesture methodology was created in response to the 2020 pandemic as a way for people to reconnect with their minds, bodies and souls. Jen’s mission is to unlock the intuitive language of the body so that we live authentically and serve purposefully. Jen holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from New York University and has dedicated her career to shifting the mindset of humanity one story at a time. As part of The Power of Gesture program, Jen offers private coaching, workshops, and speaking experiences. Jen’s body of work also includes hundreds of mini documentaries produced by Jen, representing stories of resilience communicated through The Power of Gesture.

Reading the Tarot Intuitively I asked my guest Bonnie D’Angelo how she started using the Tarot intuitively. She explained how the cards felt magical in her hands, but learning the 78 card meanings felt totally overwhelming. She started to read the 2-inch thick book, trying to memorize things, but it wasn’t clicking with her. Bonnie stumbled upon her mentor who sparked the idea of connecting intuitively with each card. She suggested looking at the images to find the meaning. First she had to find the right deck (The Light Seer’s Tarot Deck) and she worked with several until finding one that spoke to her. Intuitive Tarot Next, Bonnie started pulling one card a day and kept it with her or left it by the bed, without reading it. She spent time with each card in this way. At the same time she put the book aside, so she wasn’t tempted to look up the meanings. This allowed her to dive into the deck intuitively – which is why she calls her work Intuitive Tarot. An interesting twist is that she noticed the card meanings shifted depending on who the intuitive tarot reading was for. She feels into the energy to determine what part of the card stands out most. As I see it, Bonnie built an energetic relationship with her cards, allowing the information to channel through her. What’s great is that she is not bound by what the book says about the cards which gives her a lot of freedom in her readings. Her guides can give her information in her intuitive tarot readings and insights about what is most important for her client to hear. Tarot deck has been around since the Renaissance, and was created around 1430 in Italy. Bonnie doesn’t mean to take anything away from the original meaning of the Tarot and she honors their origin. More on the Tarot in this episode. Spellbound Mystics Bonnie has a mobile shop called Spellbound Mystics. Its a trailer filled with her goods such as crystals, card decks, books, candles, jewelry, statues, smudge sticks and more. She also provides readings there and displays her wares at farmers markets and more. This is what she says about her popup shop: “SpellBound Mystics is a Southwest Florida Mobile Crystal and Spiritual Shop as well as an Online Etsy Shop that brings the magick and healing to you, wherever you are!” At first, Bonnie was nervous giving intuitive tarot readings to people. Sometimes clients needed guidance and other times they were seeking entertainment. She loves when she can help people find clarity about a situation that they’ve been struggling with. I worked at psychic fairs decades ago and what I noticed was there were only five main questions: Love/Relationships Career Money Health Spiritual Growth/Path Both Bonnie and I approach our readings in the same way. It’s about finding what will help the person in your current situation. Addressing whatever the the concern or worry is. We both provide insights and guidance, Bonnie with Intuitive Tarot and me with my intuition. Ready for an intuitive reading with me? Two Favorite Books We went on to talk about a couple of Bonnie’s favorite books: Psychic Witch: A Metaphysical Guide to Meditation, Magick, and Manifestation by Mat Auryn. The book covers the energy of words and all about the elements with exercises and spells, rolling everything in one book. We talked about low magic, also called chaos magic and high magic which is more ceremonial and ritualistic. Most importantly, intention is the key to creating and working with magic. The power of thought is enormous. Her second favorite book is Cracking Open: Adventures of a Reluctant Medium by Isabeau Maxwell. I interviewed Isabeau in this episode! Bonnie loves this book because Isabeau is a regular person who one day just opened up to mediumship, even though she didn’t really want to go there. Bonnie’s Awakening For Bonnie, her awakening started in her dream life, but it evolved over time and changed with each new skill she learned, including yoga. Throughout the process, she’s felt a lot of emotion coming through her and sometimes cried for no reason. I pointed out that tears, laughter, sneezing, and coughing are all signs of releasing. So, this is a good thing – indicating that she was letting go all along the way. A lot of emotions get stored and stuck in your body. Thankfully, you don’t need to understand them completely to have an emotional release. Bonnie’s last words for the listeners were to allow yourself to be in the present moment and witness your life. Take a step back and look at yourself without judgement. Just see where you’re at. Being mindful in your body can open your awareness tremendously.

Feeling stuck on your life path or not finding the relationship you want? Release relationship patterns and blocks with Marilyn Penny and the Soul Realignment process. What Is Soul Realignment? There are so many ways to use the Akashic Records, and the Soul Realignment process, which is what Marilyn Penny works with, helps identify blocks and relationship patterns quickly. These situations may stem from this life or a past life. However, Marilyn’s work is not like a past life reading which is what I offer. She won’t tell you what country you lived in or what year it was. Instead, her focus is on releasing anything that has taken you off the original path of your Divine Blueprint. This is very practical work which is a reflection of both Marilyn’s approach to life, as well as the method’s founder Andrrea Hess. Marilyn’s spiritual journey began in her 50s. After her divorce, she became a life coach but she wanted something more which is why she studied Soul Realignment. In this energy work, she can channel your past and current life stories that cause restrictions. The information has been so accurate, pivotal, and useful, it continues to blow her away! The stories she picks up on come directly from her client’s soul records, which is why she’s so on target. Past Life Patterns In addition, Marilyn has found that many times you are repeating relationship patterns from a past life in this life, still trying to learn the lesson. This is where she helps you to complete the process so you can make new and better choices and finally move on. This is so different than how I work in the records, because I do see the details. Sometimes clients are simply curious about who and where they have been and I call that a Past Life Travelogue. Other times, someone is stuck and they want to know how their past might be holding them back. Then I go look for the specifics to share with the client. I asked Marilyn if she’s noticed any patterns in doing this energy healing work. She mentioned that there are often blocks during pivotal times in your life such as marriage, giving birth, loss of a partner, etc. Relationship patterns worth noting include were you being “conditional.” This is how you give your power away to be loved, accepted, or even to survive.  You end up losing your authentic self in order to fit in or be loved. Making these choices brings about negative consequences and separates you from your divine blueprint. In addition, many children today have strong intuitive skills, like talking to spirits in the house, ghosts or ETs, etc. She’s helped parents better understand what their kids needs are related to these experiences, their journey and growth. Her own spiritual awakening came after her divorce and recovering from depression. She was searching for more and deeper understanding, left the church, and started doing a lot of reading. Relationship Patterns & Blocks People have negative karmic patterns and tend to repeat bad relationships, with the same issues over and over. This applies to women who have a “type” or when you meet someone you feel like you’ve known forever. Discovering what is behind this, can free you up from these relationship patterns by learning discernment, being true to yourself, and making better decisions that support your growth and divine blueprint. These might be the same souls cycling through life and after life (which is about making soul contracts), or they have similar qualities that you keep attracting as you work through the life lessons. If you notice this repetition happening in your life, take a break from dating. This is especially true after divorce. Give yourself the time to figure out who you are again. Investigate core issues, learn to be more discerning, and get some healing to help you wrap up that last lesson and start fresh. That’s how you get to know yourself better to understand what actually works for you vs. what you’re attracted to from old patterns. You want to break the cycle of attracting the wrong person over and over, so you can finally find a good match. Love & Life Lessons Like many practitioners, Marilyn has found she attracts clients who have similar life lessons and blocks to work through and she feels this makes her more relatable. She has a good understanding about many relationship patterns, even like waiting too long until the relationship is completely broken before they try to fix things. For example, if you are struggling already at the six month mark and want to go to couples counseling, that’s a sign you’re in the wrong relationship and that is not the right partner for you. You can’t always make things work – you have to start with some level of alignment. Suffering and misery are not signs of a strong love – they are signs that something is NOT working. A relationship that’s good for you is one in which it brings out a better version of yourself. You find yourself wanting to grow and level up. A Transformative Process Working with Marilyn, you choose the area of your life you want to change and set an intention. But that’s just the start of the transformative process. The work continues after your session as well. She talks with a lot of empty nesters who need to restart their life and explore new areas, as their kids have gone off to college. Marilyn says she’s a big believer in living every frigging minute! I thought that was a fun quote. Get Marilyn’s Free book Finding Love Again – A Guide to a Healthy Relationship. BIO – Marilyn Penny Marilyn’s own transformation has led her to serve others on their journey to living a more authentic life. As a spiritual life coach and guide, Marilyn works with the Akashic Records to bring clarity and understanding to the life areas where stuckness and repetition in the choice and consequence loop need attention. Clearing blocks, breaking relationship patterns, and creating new circumstances is her superpower! She’s on a mission to help as many souls as possible return to their own unique divine nature. In my opinion, Marilyn is simply a delight to speak with and wonderful to work with as well.

I don’t call myself a psychic, predicting what will happen to you. I do intuitive readings, so you can understand the situation and take inspired action. Psychic Predictions To me, being a psychic is more about predicting the future – you’ll marry twice, have three kids and move to California. That type of thing. Psychics in my mind are more about telling you what they see is going to happen to you. While hearing about your future can be fun, from my perspective it’s a more passive way to look at your life. A psychic reading talks about your future, as if your destiny is totally predetermined. But you have free will, so how does that work? On the other hand, my work is more about problem solving in the present moment. When faced with a challenge, clients come to me for help and insights. To do this in an intuitive reading, I pose questions like these to gain a deeper understanding of the problem: What is the problem? What can you do about it? Is anyone else involved? Can you fix the problem? What’s the best way to handle this for your highest good? How does this challenge serve you? Does the issue stem from a past life? What can you learn from the situation? Working with intuition and connecting with spirit in this way is more active. In other words, the focus is on what you are learning and can do to change what is happening. This takes you out of being a victim and puts the power in your hands to create what you want. You can move from victim to victor as you learn, grow, and take charge. Intuitive Readings Are Empowering I believe the purpose of sharing my intuition is to empower you. Through tuning into you, the energy, and spirit, I see images, get messages, hear your guides, feel the energy, and sense what you need to know to shift things. My intuition leads to seeing the situation clearly, helps you understand your next steps, and gives you the power to take action. This is why I ask so many questions during my intuitive reading – to gain the clarity needed to know what to do. When you go to a psychic, they might tell you what will happen, but can they tell you how to get there? Learn more about Intuitive Readings with Ronnie So much depends on how you view yourself, the world, and your life. Is life just happening to you as you stand there watching it go by? Or are you an active participant, making decisions and taking steps towards your desired goals? Let me share a few client examples to show you how this works. Lilah – Starting a Business Lilah is a massage therapist who was just certified in a new type of emotional healing therapy. She’d been working at a spa for ages, but wasn’t happy there. Working for someone else didn’t give her the freedom to grow her business or choose her hours or pricing. Lilah wanted more freedom. She spent loads of time thinking about this and came up with a few possibilities to leave her job and make the change. Then a friend suggested Lilah call me to get some insights into her plans. When you work alone to solve a problem, you can often figure out a solution for yourself. Yet, bouncing your ideas off someone objective and intuitive can help you discover choices you might not have considered. This is true for me as well! Lilah’s first option was to go look at retail space, but the monthly rents were a bit high. She thought about finding someone to share the cost and that led to thinking about opening a center with multiple service providers. She thought if she was going to spend this kind of big money, she should add a room on to her house instead. Option two was even pricier! The Power of Experience Now, part of my strength in talking about business with clients is my background. I have an MBA in marketing and worked for years in advertising, brand marketing and promotion on the client side and as a consultant for over 20 years. Combine this with my coaching background and down-to-earth, practical nature. Now you can better understand how in my intuitive readings, I offer super helpful business insights and advice that hits the mark time after time. Find out how my intuition worked for me. Her First Intuitive Reading The first thing that happened while listening to Lilah tell me her story was that I felt constriction within my body. The idea of paying a high rent was scary, but adding on to her home with a ticket of $100,000 was frightening. I could feel her energy being crushed under the weight of that financial burden. This is exactly what I shared with her. Yet, Lilah was very attached to her own ideas, which is to be expected. I suggested she go ahead and get a few building bids and look at rental property. Gathering information can sometimes help you make a wiser decision. More importantly, my advice was to seek out sublet options to rent space for just a few days a week. Lilah did her homework and a few weeks later called for another session. She went over what she had learned and tossed expanding her home out of the equation, thankfully! Taking Action & Gaining Clarity In this second intuitive reading, what became clear is that Lilah wanted to be associated with a group of therapists thinking they’d be a great referral source for her new healing therapy. We talked about looking for therapist groups to connect with and she started talking with people. For the third call, Lilah burst out telling me how an old connection was leaving her rental space which was in a community of therapists! And instead of being $1500 a month, it was so much more affordable at only $500. Honestly, I was so excited for Lilah because obviously she had manifested exactly what she wanted. In addition, she avoided the possibility of a huge financial burden of either renting her own space, or building onto her home. We went on to talk about negotiating with the new group to meet her needs as well as how and when to leave her job. What an amazing outcome! Ready for a reading now? How to Expand Grace’s Coaching Practice Here’s another example. Grace worked for a high end consulting firm and while she loved the work it had become a grind. After getting certified as a coach and working with a business coach to build her own practice, she went out on her own. Things went so well that she quit her high paying job to do coaching full time. Now Grace was ready to level up and expand her practice, but she had been struggling with which direction to go in. She could train coaches in her method to expand private coaching or grow her group coaching program. Grace felt torn about this and had been going back and forth, finding advantages for both choices. During Grace’s intuitive reading, I tuned into the energy of both options. Group coaching was the clear winner with far more energy. However, Grace was resistant to this idea even though it was one of her own solutions. I got her to open up more about what was holding her back and it turned out she was pushing herself to start when she really wanted to travel first. By talking about a different start date, everything fell into place. She was thrilled with this direction and grateful for my insights. Tammy’s Billing Question Tammy came to me about her pricing. She’s a writer in a tight situation where she had quoted a flat fee for a large project. Then the client made changes and shifted direction after much of the work was finished. She didn’t feel she could charge more on the current project but wanted to figure out how to keep this from happening again. During her intuitive reading, I tuned into her client and the energy of the situation. Thankfully, I reassured her that she could ask for additional money given how the project had changed. I felt her client would be open to this request and as it turned out, she did bring it up and he compensated her for all the changes. We also discussed language to include in her estimates to ensure she’d be covered for this sort of thing in the future. Susan’s Client Blindsided Her Susan had an intense business crisis with her largest client. They blindsided her with some big changes. She called me for an intuitive reading feeling somewhat panic stricken. Relaying all the mucky details at a frantic pace, and Susan admitted she was unclear about what to do. I listened, asked questions, and did what Susan says is, “one of the things Ronnie does best.” I got to the heart of the problem super quickly, telling her what was the core issue and what she needed to address first. Then we mapped out a strategy and step-by-step plan. I helped Susan get out in front of the situation, to be proactive and make choices from a place of strength. These insights, combined with the plan, helped Susan to feel calmer and more in control. Thankfully, the issue got resolved without Susan losing face. She pointed out that the clarity I helped her find made all the difference in how she handled things and how much she appreciated my wisdom. For me, that was really nice to hear.

Have you ever heard about the four seasons of the soul, or that the ego is your body guard and not the CEO of your life? Learn about holistic stress management and more in this thought provoking episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast. Stress – It’s All in Your Head My guest this week, Dr. Brian Luke Seaward, is a health psychologist who began his career as the sports psychologist for the Calgary Olympic games in 1988 which he says was great fun. After that, he went back into academia to teach stress management which for him is about how to improve human performance. When people get nervous playing sports, their performance decreases. At the Olympic level, most people have the same physical skills, so what separates the winners from those who don’t win is what’s in their head. That’s why Luke says holistic stress management is actually mental training in the athletic world, including confidence building, patience, mental imagery and rehearsal, etc. Then, in the every day world it can also be a spiritual practice. Defining Spirituality How does Luke define human spirituality? Years ago, he met Elizabeth Kubler Ross, who spoke about Holistic Wellness which is the integration and balance of the mind, body, spirit, and emotions. She asked him to help her reintroduce human spirituality back into healthcare and health education and he agreed. Three things are essential to human spirituality: 1) Relationships, 2) Values, 3) Meaningful purpose in life and this has been the focus of so much of Luke’s work. I know he’s spoken at medical conferences, so I asked him if American physicians could ever get this idea into their heads. Luke’s perspective is that doctors who embrace this concept live two lives. One life is at work in the Western medical model and the other is their personal  life where they address spirituality on their own time. He has spoken at the Mayo Clinic, so there is some acknowledgement that spirituality impacts your health. In my opinion, this is one reason for the rise of functional medicine doctors and naturopaths, who take a more holistic approach to medicine, health and wellness. What Are the Seasons of the Soul? Many experts who talk about stress and spirituality, are actually describing what Luke has named the Four Seasons of the Soul. Autumn is like the centering process where you enter the heart, go inside and get to know yourself – this is like soul searching. Winter season you need to empty out the thoughts, attitudes, and beliefs that no longer serve  you which can get in the way of your progress. This is when you have to let go to make progress. Spring is the grounding process when you get new insights and visions to help you move along through life. Summer is the connecting process which is likened to Joseph Campbell’s hero’s journey when you come back with learning and share with others. This helps raise consciousness for other people trying to make sense of their lives. You cycle through these seasons continuously and can be in different seasons in different parts of your life. This is a process of letting go and moving on, but many people get stuck, not realizing they don’t have to stay where they are. Words like detaching, releasing, and emptying all describe the process and are part of holistic stress management. Luke thinks of these actions as domesticating the ego. Often the ego resists letting go because it doesn’t like change and wants to hold on, thinking some of this stuff may be be needed down the road. Taming the Ego Meditation tames or domesticates the ego.  Everyone needs the ego because it trips the fight or flight response which helps you stay out of danger. However, your ego is supposed to be the body guard, not the CEO of your life. The ego can’t be in charge of everything. Meditation, which is a great way to center, quiets the voice of the ego to gain clarity and allow you to let go. For example, feeling victimized about how your life has been is natural at time and good to acknowledge. Did you know meditation can create inner peace? However, you have to let go of feelings of anger, frustration, resentment, which are important to recognize, but aren’t healthy to hang on to for weeks, months, or years. This becomes baggage which can hold you back. So how do you let go? This is of great interest to me personally because I would LOVE to release some stuff. But I think people (like me) get stuck here, not because they don’t WANT to let go, but they can’t see the possibilities of HOW to let go. Energy clearing is another way to let go and release things. Luke agreed because the fear of the unknown can be scarier than being empty and letting go. He suggests meditation, journaling, and support groups for sharing and learning from each other. These are all part of holistic stress management. It’s not easy. First you have to recognize that you are hanging on, right? Then you can start the releasing process. This takes some work. Don’t I know it! Muscles of the Soul In his work, Dr. Seaward tends to listen to many stories people have about their lives which fall into two categories: 1) The Victim and 2) The Victor. The Victim stories all sound similar, but what really makes him curious are the Victor stories. How did someone get through a bad experience and come out glowing? People often point to things like optimism, sense of humor, patience, and forgiveness. These are gifts that are appropriate for everybody to lean on. He calls gratitude, humor, forgiveness, etc. Muscles of the Soul and they need to be exercised and used or they can atrophy. These are tools to help you navigate tough times and are also considered to be coping techniques or inner resources. Time Tested Techniques for Relaxation Luke’s suggestions are either coping techniques or relaxation techniques and they can work together. He’s a fan of meditation which is very helpful for sensory overload. It’s really important to unplug from the world for at least 5 minutes a day. People listen to music and this is called music therapy or sound therapy to calm your nervous system. He also mentioned humor therapy because laughing is vital. Find one humorous thing a day. I brought up my current favorite series of YouTube videos – Denise, The Heaven Receptionist. Denise is the receptionist for heaven and she is hilarious, talking with new arrivals or people who want upgrades. Too funny! There’s so much more in this episode, so listen in today and enjoy the whole show!

Discover how to find joy in the journey in this episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast. Get the update on my spiritual adventure which includes learning how to let go, synchronicities as guidance on the path, and the fastest path to joy! The Spiritual Adventure Continues! A few weeks ago I talked about a Celtic Shaman Journey I went on where I encountered Merlin who had a message for me. He told me I was on an adventure with no destination, no map, no guide, and no details! I’m just going blindly somewhere. If you missed the first episode about my spiritual adventure you can listen here. That was a bit daunting which is why I invited you, the listeners to come along with me. So, on my first update, I want to let you know that quite a bit has happened! That’s a little surprising considering I don’t even know where I am going. Networking Online My first stop was at a networking event where I met Jen who is a somatic coach and she talks about the Power of Gesture. Normally this wouldn’t appeal to me, but I did a free session with her and it ended up being fun. So, I agreed to do a series of sessions with her. I set my intention for the sessions to learn how to accept what is and find joy in the journey.  The first thing I worked on was resistance. Jen has you make hand gestures that represent what you are feeling – it is so interesting! I put my gestures together, she played some music, and I started crying! I have no idea what that was about but Jen said it doesn’t matter. I’m releasing stuck energy and emotion and that’s a good thing. The Sunflower Pose The next session I worked on letting go of frustration. In the third session, I wanted to release feeling constricted, so I could feel more expansive. My hands started at the heart level with the palms up, then I raised them and moved them out to the sides of my body, as my head tilted back just a little. I call this the Sunflower Pose. As I did this gesture, the sun was shining in the window on my face, which felt really good. This took me back to a blessing I wrote 10 years ago with the help of my spiritual guides.   Connect with the Oneness and expand Celebrate that you are a part of everything Elevate your energy to the level of your desire And shine, shine like the sun Beam love and joy from your heart Embrace the sparkling being you already are Flow with the Universe and blossom And be grateful for all you are and have today Every time I say this blessing, especially the “shine like the sun” part, I feel joyful, and connected to spirit. That’s what relates to the Sunflower Pose. It just puts me into a blissful state. This is how my soul shines with a higher frequency. Find Joy in the Journey That’s when the light bulb went on as I realized this was my intention, right? Accept what is and feel more joy! The Sunflower Pose does that for me! Plus, when you accept what is, you can grow, shift, and expand, because you are no longer struggling. I am learning to let go, by shifting my focus to feeling more joy. I realized that if I kept thinking about how to let go, I wouldn’t be able to because I’d be thinking about it! Turns out distraction is a vital piece to letting go. The Sunflower Pose is letting go and shifting into a much higher frequency! Listen to this Podcast Snack about Letting Go This encouragement to find joy in the little things is not new to me. Spirit has been telling me this for a few years. But for some reason, I don’t find following this advice very easy. I did get a short message from the honeysuckle deva about the sweetness of life last year. Meaning of Sunflowers Now, let’s talk why I named this pose, The Sunflower. I looked up what sunflowers mean in a card deck – Soulflowers by Lisa Estabrook. “Confident sunflowers stand tall and radiate, shining like the sun. When you are suffering from low confidence or self doubt (I’ve been in self doubt), Sunflower humbly reminds you of your true magnificence, instilling acceptance and understanding and allowing loving compassion to flow from  your heart.” Sunflowers are believed to seek out the light and hold their heads high as if in adoration of the sun. They call out to you to appreciate who you are, and embrace and accept the differences between people. Their message is, “Stand tall and follow your dreams. Focus on what is positive in your life and don’t let anyone get you down.” The thing is, I didn’t look that up beforehand, I just saw this now as I’m recording this. How magical! Synchronicities Abound I’m amazed at the synchronicity of my experience with the Sunflower Pose and the messages the flower offers. To me, this means, I’m on the right path to find joy in the journey because when synchronicities show up, that is magic! It’s a connection to spirit, which puts you on notice to pay attention. Thankfully, I’m not missing a thing. My thought is, if I can be comfortable where I am, then I can let go and naturally open to more joy. I won’t be struggling against what is. At that point, if I want to let go of something bothering me, I can just step into the Sunflower Pose and allow the shift to happen. That will surely help me find joy in the journey. Find Happy Memories I also have a business coach and we are working on the same thing, as it relates to my business. Michelle suggested I make a list of happy memories but surprisingly, that was really difficult. Most of my happy memories were tinged with some other disappointing memory. For example, on my wedding day I was thrilled to finally get married for the first time at 43. However, the Justice of the Peace forgot to come and showed up 90-minutes late, while we were eating dinner. Not the end of the world but not a memory of pure happiness. It took a while to breakthrough and uncover untainted happy memories. What I realized is that most of my current happy memories are more like magical moments. For example, the first time I went into the Akashic Records intuitively, I had incredible energy rushes with energy circling my head, This lasted for several minutes and was no doubt, some kind of energetic initiation! There have been a few fabulous vacations I’ve taken with my husband. We went on a cruise to Nova Scotia, a relaxing week in Martha’s Vineyard and an awesome tour of Ireland. OK, I do have happy memories, its just for some reason, it took a while to dig them up. Create a Ceremony Being disconnected from happy memories made me realize I needed to somehow separate my happy moments from the disappointing stories or feeling crushed that often followed. To address this, I created a ceremony where I imagined pulling cords that connected my happy memories to the disappointment that sometimes followed. Next, I imagined that I burned these cords to transform them. Yes! That was so helpful to separate these states of being and prevent them from wrongly being tied together! Magical Card Reading Telling this story to the somatic coach, she recommended that I increase my awareness of the magic all around me. It was time to see, notice and pay attention to more of the magical clues my guides provide to help me find my way on the path. Today, I decided to give myself a card reading and I picked one card from four decks to better understand where I am. The first is from the Aura Soma deck which is about color therapy. The card mentions wisdom of a new era and dissolving fear that hinders clear thoughts. That goes well with letting go! The second card was the Whirling Goddess from the Rumi Oracle and it says certain thresholds can only be crossed with the heart. I’m being asked to trust vs. understand, so I can leave the past behind and embrace the beauty of life’s journey. How amazing is that talking about having trust and being on a journey? That’s exactly where I’m at! Looking for joy in the little things. The third card was from the Sacred Creators deck and the card I chose had only three words, “Your soul shines.” That blows me away! The last card was from the Soulflower Oracle deck, and I picked the Dandelion card which says, “Release and let it go! Listen to your body” which is like the work with the somatic coach. Also, release attachments that no longer serve your soul’s journey. I’m on it! More Synchronicities Did you notice the number of synchronicities? OMG that was a crazy amount of synchronicities! Between the journey, trust, letting go, and soul shining, I was absolutely astonished! Wrapping up this spiritual adventure update, I just want to say that noticing the synchronicities, is my evidence that so far, the adventure is going well. I just have to have faith that I’m headed somewhere I need to go, even if I don’t know where that might be and that I will find joy in the journey. What will you do to find your joy? I’m sure there will be more to add to this tale, so stay tuned! The post How To Find Joy In The Journey – My Spiritual Adventure Update appeared first on Intuitive Edge.

You’ve had past lives on earth, but also in different star systems! Discover your soul’s star history with Galactic Astrology and my guest Ulrika Sullivan, in this week’s episode of the Breathe Love & Magic podcast. What is Galactic Astrology? In this practice, Ulrika combines her intuitive skills with the Akashic Records and astrology to help you understand your soul’s journey. Readings like this can be an accelerator for self-awareness and deep insights that expand your consciousness. As luck would have it or with the help of synchronicity, Ulrika just landed in front of Julia Balaz’s program online. Upon seeing it, she got a huge intuitive YES! The Universe conspired to have her take this program and get certified. Your Galactic Heritage When you take a higher perspective, you can think about how your soul is so vast, beyond traditional astrology in our solar system. In Galactic Astrology, you get beyond our sun and out into the Universe, which helps you learn about your soul’s uniqueness. This adds another transformative level to gaining insights about what makes you who you are. Julia Balaz was a past life regressionist and after doing thousands of sessions, she found some interesting similarities. She’s traced things back to constellations in people’s natal astrology chart to understand the bigger picture. Indigenous people have continued to follow the stars for thousands of years and are multi-dimensionally connected, while many of us are living from the 3-D perspective only which is not as high a vibration. This is what we’re doing on earth right now – being invited to remember we are galactic citizens and to live a bigger life than just going to work, coming home, socializing, and doing laundry. A reading will help you look at what’s relevant in your chart right now. First you can get your Galactic Astro chart done FREE here. But then you do need the professional interpretation to make heads of tails of the information provided.  For herself, Ulrika has very strong connections to Andromeda and Beta Centauri. But she says everyone has experience with multiple star systems in their soul history and its much more complex then just saying something simple like, “I’m from Lyra.” Knowing your galactic history can help you validate and confirm who you really are which gives you a deeper sense of peace. She Really Was Angelic! How does this galactic astrology information impact the reader? One client always had the sense she was connected from the Angelic Realm. Ulrika discovered that was true about her! This allowed the woman to stop doubting herself and open to the frequency of her point of origin. How cool is that? Of course, I wanted to understand why someone who had been in the Angelic Realm would ever come here to earth? Ulrika says your soul continues to evolve and so, perhaps she wanted to experience duality – earth sure is the ideal place for that! There is plenty of unfinished business for anyone to investigate and learn about. Ulrika has seen a lot of alignment between Lyra and Orion and when she learns about her clients, this has explained their interactions. This has happened more than once. It’s also true that the practitioner will likely attract clients with curious similarities and this has been fun for her. The likelihood that she and I have been together in the past is also high. It goes a step beyond the soul family to the star family. Atlantis and Lemuria also come up frequently in her readings because many people have come back to earth now, at this time to be here for these wild changes we are going through.
