Messy, Luminous, Being Podcast

deep in our hearts is a knowing of the original village -- a place where individuals were connected in community by our roles to meet each others' human needs. And in this original village was always a space for contemplation and connection to our inner world, the world of spirit, the world of the unseen forces that guide our lives. In this new season of the Messy Luminous Being Podcast we are co-creating that sacred space, the original fire circle, that used to occupy of physical reality in the village but was always truly located inside us. So when you need space to turn down the noise of the world and turn to your own inner voice, this can be your sacred tent, your higher ground, the fire circle you can step into.

In this episode I talk with Anna Neubert-Wood from Wander Women about the power of time in nature and with oneself. We discuss the "nature high", cold water swimming as a personal practice, and forest bathing. The fast pace of life can often make us miss what's going on inside of us, and Wander Women gives women the opportunity to experience a new level of self-care, slow living and reflection time.

This second and third parts of the Nervous System Masterclass are all about activating the Calm Creative State, including new science on our brainwaves and meditation techniques, and finally some key Mindset Shifts we can make to radically reduce stress by changing the ways we think which cause stress in the first place. I can't wait to hear what you think and how you use these mindset shifts in your own messy luminous life. 

There is real magic and possibility in understanding the wisdom of our nervous system, learning how to listen to it, care for it and harness its power. In this episode, I share part of a Nervous System Wisdom Masterclass I ran this month, with new science and new potentials. In terms of our nervous system and our body's reality, we live in two states of being — survival or creative. I know which one I want more of! Let's dive into this together...   Get access to the whole Nervous System Masterclass along with the MLB newsletter here: https://mailchi.mp/sarahbhunt/messyluminousbeing

Sometimes the big picture is much bigger than we can see. In this episode, I have a conversation with Annu Tara, founder of Aurora Earth, about her perspective on the sacred earth, what she calls the 'Restorative Timeline' and the way mental constructs have created a false over-lay to natural reality. This is a conversation full of the cosmic, the sacred feminine and a chance to step into another perspective of life beyond what we can see. Connect with Annu Tara on IG @annutara or at https://auroraearth.org to find out about Wild Wisdom and upcoming offerings.   For more Messy Luminous Being, join the newsletter here.

Your emotions are biochemisty. Your body is an energy conductor. Observing your thoughts is the most powerful technology for change (and here's why). This episode is full of science and three of the most powerful ideas of mind-body connections that can inspire us and guide us when we want to get unstuck, change or uplevel our inner experience of life. This is the mechanicals, the why and the how behind "becoming the change" we all want to see in the world.   Come hang out more with me in the Messy Luminous Being newsletter, weekly messages that will bring you gritty real-ness, meditation science and inspiration about becoming our most true and beautiful selves. https://mailchi.mp/sarahbhunt/messyluminousbeing

She discusses the merging of wildness and mindfulness, highlighting how vision quests can enhance self-awareness. Natasha emphasizes the importance of embracing our authentic selves and finding joy in spiritual practices. The conversation also explores the mythic dimension of life, encouraging listeners to reclaim authenticity amid the noise of modern life while fostering deeper connections with the natural world.

Reverse the way you see it. This wisdom teaching from Tibetan Buddhist meditation is all about taking mind-training into the wilds of messy real life. But how do we change the way we see things? And what does it mean to say — Life is happening For you? In this episode, I wanted to share my own mental reframe process with specific real life examples. This is the kind of meditiation practice that doesn't take any time, and is happening all the time. This is mental alchemy...transforming life into the path to Awakening.    Want more Messy Luminous Being delivered straight to you each week?

What is the relationship between the inner and the outer? Between our Soul-self that exists as part of the great mystery, and our physical body? And are there aspects of ourselves that are lying dormant and looking for places to express themselves? These are some of the many questions I talk about with the wonderful Fiona Sears, reiki practitioner, energy worker and skin-rewilding tallow maker, who insists that the things we put into and around our bodies have energy.  You can follow fiona on IG @fiona.sears and find her tallow shop on etsy @beesncoos And if you fancy getting some "whispers from your wise self" each week, jump into the Messy Luminous Being newsletter here

In this episode, I wanted to share a moment from my own messy real life that gave me a ton of wisdom about finding a new level of self-acceptance. What is so interesting about parenting is the reality that we don't choose our children like we choose our friends. We get the children we get and life teaches us how to learn and accept and love them for who they are in all their messy beautiful humanness. The truth is, we also don't choose ourselves! We don't get to decide what we're good at or what we find difficult. So whether you're a parent or not, this is a story you need to hear about what might happen if we really accepted ourselves the way we learn to accept our loved ones. It's wisdom in the midst of messy real life. The way our life becomes the path.   Want more spiritual wisdom in messy real life?
