Awakening Aphrodite

In this episode I read from a speech by Jada Pinkett Smith called: The War on Men Through the Degradation of Woman. In it she asks the question: How is man to recognize his full self, his full power through the eyes of an incomplete woman? and goes into how the restructuring of our societies from cultures that honored women have now lead to both genders feeling empty and with a lack of meaning, depth and connection. "A woman is the window to a man's heart and a man's heart is the gateway to his soul." Enjoy and don't forget to SUBSCRIBE and rate and review the show before you go!

In this episode I mention how Albert Einstein, like most great minds of our time, had both a reverence and respect for nature, mysticism and spirituality and saw them as inseparable and omnipotent components of science and all of life.  I read from a section of a personal letter written by Albert Einstein to his daughter where he talks about the most powerful universal force of all and how in order to "give visibility to love", he made a "simple substitution" in his most famous equation: E=MC2!

In this episode  we get to spend some time with a true pioneer: entrepreneur, spiritual leader, best-selling author, international advocate and expert in Women's Empowerment and Health and best-selling author Sierra Bender. In her career spanning 3 decades and counting, Sierra's story is as compelling as it is remarkable. Sierra was pronounced dead on Christmas Eve 1995 when she was 32 from an undiagnosed tubular pregnancy of 4 months that caused her to nearly bleed to death.  During her time "on the other side", she had a conversation with God and was asked 4 questions that would forever change the course of her life and was shown her path and purpose and from that experience, rose the spirit of a Woman Warrior: a strong-willed, compassionate, and fearless entity.  Although she could not give birth to  children she gave birth to the 4 Body Fit™ Method. Her 4 Body Fit™ Method became an international  movement of women’s empowerment workshops and retreats and created the 4 body trend. She has been on the speaking circuit since 1996.  The 4 Body Fit™Method has been clinically proven by the Department of  Psychology at American University, DC in clinical trials that prove its effectiveness for healing and empowering females of all ages. Sierra’s best-selling book, Goddess to the Core and teachings continue to be a  catalyst to over millions of women and girls around the globe to reclaim  their power.   Sierra spearheaded the current trends in the self-help and wellness industries. Her programs created the benchmark in leading institutions Kripalu Center and Omega Institute and universities amongst others. She was the first to address and define empowerment and the lack of it in  the Women’s Empowerment and Women’s Health movement and identify personal is professional. In this episode we tap into so much of Sierra's vast wisdom and experience, including such topics as: - The 4 questions she was asked  by God when she died  - The 4 Body Fit Method   - What is Righteous Anger - How to turn pain into purpose - When it's time to stop sacrificing yourself - Creating boundaries and holding space for others rather than taking on their stuff - Control v. Allowing - Fear v. Faith - Embodying the self and getting grounded - How to be accountable to yourself - Dealing with change and taking on challenges - The  13 Levels of Empowerment for Women Warriors   - How Goddess to the Core is a Goddess Warrior "Love isn't just an emotion. It's the most powerful force in the universe grounded by action and responsibility." ~Sierra Bender TO LEARN MORE ABOUT SIERRA PLEASE VISIT: 13 Levels of Empowerment for Women Warriors On Line Training  https://sierrabender.com/training-personal/   Website: SierraBender.com     IG: Sierra Bender    FB Professional : SierraBender  https://www.facebook.com/SierraBenderInc  Join Private Facebook:  Goddess Warrior™ Tribe  https://www.facebook.com/groups/763881210626584 THANK YOU SO MUCH!

This episode is Part 4 of my 10-Part Series based on my latest eBook, Foundations in Fitness Fat Loss Guide: The 10 Key Components of Holistic Fitness and Fat Loss.  Tip #4 is to Have a 12-Hour Non-Eating Window Although it might sound scary (or restrictive), Intermittent Fasting, or Time-Restrictive Eating, is simply having a 12-hour period of time in a 24-hour day where you do not eat (you only only drink) - it is actually a natural and normal way to live. Contrary to how our modern society is, we have not always had 24 access to food but rather we went through periods of food abundance and scarcity, not the least of which was regular periods, usually during the night, where we were not eating. As I discuss in the episode, there are many benefits to following this habit, among which include: - aid in weight loss - detoxification - assist in organ regeneration -improved recovery from exercise Give it a try and see if it helps...and let me know ;) You can get this tip and the other 9, in my eBook: Foundations in Fat Loss: The 10 Key Components to Holistic Fitness and Fat Loss Guide on my website.

In this episode we tap into the wisdom of New York Times Bestselling Author, Mark Nepo and his groundbreaking book: The Book of Awakening: Having the Life You Want by Being Present to the Life You Have Enjoy by reading the section: "More Power to You". In it, we learn how there is an ocean of difference between "worldly power" and "inner power" and how wanting "more" of something is actually coming from a place of lack and scarcity.  Mark also gives a great example of what is meant by the popular saying: "It's lonely at the top" in his description of the popular kids game: King of the Hill (I know I played that as a kid!;)) and I add how we can unconsciously sabotage our success at anything - success, achievement, weight loss, relationships, etc.. - when we don't integrate ALL of who we are, the light and the dark.  I hope you enjoy and please remember to SUBSCRIBE and rate and review the show before you go!
