Rashida, as always brings the curiosity and Lauren drops the wisdom on what this yoga thing is anyway. Key Takeaways: Yoga provides a path to self realization Yoga philosophy is perpetually relevant, yet meaningless if we do not apply and integrate it into our lives Free Will is something discovered and not naturally achieved There is so much more to Yoga than the Asanas (poses) Lauren shared a resource : Living the Sutras: A Guide to Yoga Wisdom Beyond the Mat Take the Chakra Superpower Quiz Here Find Out More About Yoga Teacher Training Here Hang out with us on Instagram: yourspiritualbestiespodcast shidagirl86 iamlaurenleduc or email us: yourspiritualbestiespodcast@gmail.com Intro and Outro Music : Praiseworthy by Kabbalistic Village

007: Happy Imbolc and February Oracle Card Reading
Hey Besties! Glad you could make it back for another episode. Today we dive into the energies of February and where we are being called to focus this month. Lauren shares a nature based tradition with us and Rashida takes us through a quick self care embodiment practice. Key Takeaways: Imbolc is a nature based tradition we can use this time to prepare and get ready for the spring Affirmation: I am dedicated to speaking up for myself- Bring your voice to the table. Threads of Fate- Eventide Affirmation Deck Legendary Ladies Goddess Deck by Ann Shen - Gaia - Time in nature is vital to our health , we are meant to connect. The connecting allows us to connect to ourselves and our purpose. Nature allows us to be in alignment. We are being called to embody Gaia and treat ourselves like the Queens we are. Treat ourselves as Gaia treats us. Energy Archeology- Ashley Stinson - Expectation/ Maxilla and Temporal -small movements will allow you get to where you want to go. Let go and Allow. Holding tension in our jaw will not allow us to use our voice fully and our words will not reflect the truth. A Yogic Path Oracle Deck - Sahara Rose- Bhuvaneshvari- Goddess of space and infinite possibilities . Open yourself up to the magic of presence by active listening. Deep Listening is one of the highest forms of service for not only yourself but those around you. *Anatomy correction: Rashida was flowing in her channelling and made up a word instead of using the correct term . But she wanted to be clear and note the correct anatomy term here to avoid any confusion. She meant to say Maxilla instead of Mandela* Join Lauren Feb 5th at 6pm CST for SPEAK : Full Moon Goddess Circle RSVP at http://laurenleduc.com/ Hang out with us on Instagram: @yourspiritualbestiespodcast @shidagirl86 @iamlaurenleduc or email us: yourspiritualbestiespodcast@gmail.com Intro and Outro Music : Praiseworthy by Kabbalistic Village
