59 | You Are a Storyteller with David Alder

"What is the message that wants to come through you now?" This is the question storyteller David Alder asked each of us to contemplate as we embarked on an 8-week writing course—the result of which became the previous episode of this podcast (an episode my husband said was my best ever!) We all have stories within us that shape us at a profound level and change the way we engage with this world. Sometimes, these stories reawaken within us and ask to be shared. David Alder is a storyteller shepherding people to create parables of change through his transformative writing courses and workshops. He is also the author of a thought-provoking parable of his own called "We Will Call it Pala" a cautionary tale about the mainstream use and commodification of the psychedelic therapy movement. If you've never engaged in a consistent writing practice before, David shares practical and energetic tools to cultivate a discipline around storytelling and shares a compelling and urgent treatise for why our world needs more heart-centered stories to individually and collectively raise the vibration of our planet. I hope you love this conversation as much as I did.

52 | EFT Tapping Explained with Amy Piper

Learn more about EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), often referred to as tapping with expert Amy Piper. EFT operates on the premise that emotional distress and psychological issues are linked to disturbances in the body's energy system. It draws from the ancient Chinese meridian system, the same energy pathways used in acupuncture and acupressure. By tapping on these various points in the body while focusing on a particular challenge or emotion, you can move it physically through your body. A typical EFT session includes identifying a specific issue to focus on, rating the intensity of the emotion, and then performing a series of tapping sequences while repeating affirmations or statements related to the issue. In this insightful episode of The Current, Amy shares her personal journey into the world of EFT, explaining how it facilitated her own healing and led to a career shift. The conversation delves into the specifics of EFT, its benefits, and how it integrates with Human Design. Amy provides a comprehensive explanation of the EFT process, including a demonstration of tapping points and a real-time exercise to address Nadia's experiences feeling hyper vigilance in cars due to an car accident she experienced in high school.
