80. Understanding the Influence of Culture on Aging, Biology, Illness and the Immune System with Psychoimmunologist, Author and Longevity Expert Dr. Mario Martinez

What a pleasure and honor to have world-renowned cultural psychoneuroimmunologist Dr. Mario Martinez on the show today.  I've had both of his ground-breaking books, The Mind Body Code and The Mind Body Self in my library since college when my acute fascination with the mind-body connection really kicked in so I was thrilled to be able to sit down with Dr. Martinez and learn from a true pioneer in the industry and founder of Biocognition, or what he calls, the mindbodyculture. Dr. Martinez is a licensed clinical psychologist who argues that current mechanical models of the life sciences study disease by reducing the body to pathological parts. He proposes that the healing process must include the cultural history that contextualizes the mind-body expression of health, and challenges the cultural beliefs that perpetuate genetic helplessness. Biocognitive theory integrates research in psychoneuroimmunology, neuroscience, and cultural anthropology to conceptualize and address the causes of health, the learning of illness, and the biocultural ingredients of longevity.

79. Wisdom Teachings For Inner Peace In the Modern World From Native American Shaman and Medicine Man Bear Heart with Molly Larkin

Have you ever read a book that immediately changed your life and touched your Soul? My guest in this episode, Molly Larkin, and her co-author and mentor, Native American Shaman and Medicine Man, Bear Heart (Marcellus William) of the Muskogee Creek tribe, did just that. I was so humbled and deeply grateful when Molly agreed to come on the show so she could share with you these profound wise teachings with the hopes that they will help you find more meaning, peace, purpose, connection and joy in your life - I know it did for me! Molly has been a spiritual seeker since the age of seven, when she learned about the scientific understanding of the time that human beings only utilize 10% of their cognitive capacity. That moment sparked her intrigue into the vast possibilities of human potential and her desire to utilize the entirety of her brain's capacity in her life.  Molly has studied with various indigenous elders from around the world for over 30 years and was Bear Heart’s apprentice for 15 years, learning many of his medicine methods. She is a Sun Dancer, a Vision Faster and a Pipe Carrier. Molly has also studied with Lakota elders Wallace Black Elk and Maya Priest and Master Teacher Miguel Angel Vergara. She is an energy healing practitioner and works with an international clientele of people and animals, both in person and via long distance. She teaches healing classes in the U.S. for the largest healing organization in Europe: NFSH-The Healing Trust. Molly has taught personal growth and spirituality workshops in the U.S., Europe, and Australia (whew!). Molly also teaches classes in spiritual healing and is available for private consultations and readings online. As I mentioned, most significantly, Molly co-authored, with Muskogee Creek elder Marcellus “Bear Heart” Williams, the international best-seller “The Wind Is My Mother; the Life and Teachings of a Native American Shaman” -- a book that touched my Soul.

78. Connecting With Nature: A Discussion on "Animal Speak: The Spiritual, Symbolic & Magical Powers of Creatures Great and Small" by Ted Andrews

Welcome back to Awakening Aphrodite! Do you have a pet? Do you love animals? ME TOO!  In this episode, we explore the classic book, “Animal Speak: The Spiritual and Magical Powers of Creatures Great and Small” by Ted Andrews who was a pioneer and leading expert in helping us understand animals and nature as well as the metaphysical and spiritual fields of life at large. Although I never had the opportunity to actually meet Ted, I consider him to be a mentor of mine because his work has profoundly affected my life.  We explore modern technology’s interference with authentic connection and look to Ted’s 10 tips for regaining our lost gift of communication with wildlife, omens and the symbolism that emerges from our subconscious awareness: Experience nature firsthand. Examine the wildlife in your environment. Orient yourself in your landscape. Pay closer attention to physical signs of nature. When in nature, pay attention to what stands out most strongly. Notice the colors you encounter in nature. Attend to the numbers associated with the animals you encounter. Notice the four directions and their significance. Pay attention to the animal activities you come across. Make a conscious effort to connect with nature.

76. Harnessing the Energy of the Sun and Stars: Scalar Light Healing with Tom Paladino: Harnessing Primal Life-Force to Heal Yourself and The World

Welcome back to Awakening Aphrodite! In this week's episode, you will learn all about Scalar Energy and the work of Tom Paladino. Tom has spent his life studying and progressing the genius of Nikola Tesla and Thomas Galen Hieronymus. We discuss how research shows that scalar waves can communicate instantaneously across very long distances, and how you can benefit directly from Scalar Light therapy!  As I say all the time on this show: light, like food, water, sound, chemicals, etc. is actually information for our mind and body and it literally gives the cells in the body instructions on what to do. That’s why I was thrilled when today’s guest, Tom Paladino, agreed to come on the show, because I’m only starting to learn and understand how powerful and healing natural light can be.  Tom is a Scalar Light Researcher with over 25 years of experience developing healing techniques designed to help people all over the world to recover from pathogenic infection and experience true health and wellness – not to mention look younger! Scalar light is Chi, Prana, BG3, sunlight, starlight, life force – it’s the original source from which all other forms of energy originate – You could say it’s the very essence of consciousness itself. One of the things I really love about this is it doesn’t draw on the finite energy resources and supplies of Mother Earth other forms of energy does…and you know I’m all about protecting and loving her and restoring harmony and balance both within and without. In this episode Tom explains how we can both understand and harness this healing power in our everyday lives – and it’s totally painless and effortless I might add – to not only cure illnesses and disease but also enhance our overall quality of life – *Charlotte and I are signed up! *Stay tuned to the end of the show for Tom’s special FREE TRAIL offer! www.scalarlight.com Timestamps:  01:41 Introduction To Scalar Energy 03:19 The Powers Of Light 06:11 Relationship Between Scalar And Electric Energy 08:36 Nicola Tesla And Scalar Energy 11:35 Entering The Lab Of T.

75. Healing The Father Wound With Forgiveness Coach Rachel Isabella

If you, or someone you know, has issues with feeling abandoned, rejected or in some way emotionally wounded or estranged from one of your parents, or if you are a single parent and your child does not have a healthy relationship with his/her other parent, this episode is for you. My guest today is Rachel Isabella who is a forgiveness coach specializing in helping "fatherless daughters". As a fatherless daughter herself, Rachel now helps other fatherless daughters heal their heart wounds, forgive, let go and create wonderful lives out of their pain rather than making poor decisions and life choices because of it. She believes forgiveness is fundamental in order to live a healthy, happy, peaceful life (and I agree!). Rachel defines "fatherless daughters" as someone who's: 1. Father physically abandoned them 2. Father was physically absent 3. Father was emotionally absent 4. Father died 5. Mother does not know who the father was We learn that there is a specific and deep emotional wound of unworthiness in fatherless daughters that can manifest in many ways including promiscuity, neediness, emotional shut down/unavailability, lack of intimacy, relationship issues, abandonment/attachment issues, addictions and more. Most importantly, we talk about how to heal and move on to reclaim your life with a practical discussion on boundary setting, 6 reasons you should forgive and advice for single mom's on how you can fill in the holes left from an absent male figure in your child's life. Enjoy and please share with someone you love if you think will help them!:) Timestamps:  01:01 Forgiveness Coaching For Fatherless Daughters 04:44 Healing The Wound Of Parental Rejection 05:54 Distinguishing The Wound From Victimhood 08:49 Your Perceptions Is Your Reality 10:50 Can We Forgive Our Fathers? 14:24 Obstacles To Forgiveness 18:03 Rachel’s Personal Healing Process 20:24 Do We Need Spiritual Connection To Heal Emotional Wounds? 25:42 Tips On Setting Boundaries 32:16 Raising Fatherless Children As Fatherless Adults 38:32 Rachel’s 6 Main Reasons To Forgive 41:28 Final Words Of Wisdom 43:07 How To Find Rachel OTHER EPISODES OF INTEREST: 72. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/72-connecting-at-the-heart-level-fostering-better/id1536211327?i=1000544204541 74. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/74-befriending-your-body-dealing-with-and-healing/id1536211327?i=1000545632839 Contact Amy Fournier: WEBSITE: http://amyfournier.com/ EMAIL: amy@amyfournier.com INSTAGRAM: @FitAmyTV YOUTUBE: Awakening Aphrodite Podcast/FitAmyTV FACEBOOK: Amy Fournier TWITTER: Tweetwithamy TIKTOK: @awakeningaphrodite PODCAST: Awakening Aphrodite (available on all podcast outlets like iTunes and Spotify)
