ALL ONE TIME LIVE

So love can (and perhaps should) be a common thing - a feeling familiar because we touch it daily - from family and children and "pets" to pizza and pilates or whatever floats your boat; pay attention. The impulse of love, the feeling of "this is right", i believe, serves a purpose, guiding and directing us towards our personal north star, our red road, our destiny. Rounding out season 1, IN JOY, ENJOY!!!

I LOVE Chris. He bravely bridges the gap between "civilized western capitalists" and indigenous cultures teachings. He lives it. His time, the currency of life, is often spent finding the stillness within the natural environment, uncorrupted. From there is wisdom drawn, and shared here. Thanks, Chris, for every conversation had and shared. This one ties some threads together and includes some humor :) As always, enjoy IN joy ❤️

Einar works as a social pedagog and a youth counselor. In his own words, "I've been very interested in stories that people live through and how those stories and experiences affect us. I seek to understand, so that I can guide and influence people and circumstances in a positive life-affirming direction. I want to understand myself first, even though I'm attentive to others as well, so that if I know what works for me, it might also work for someone else. I'm interested in religion, philosophy, psychology, spiritual modalities, from which I seek the gold. I look for what works, so that I can use it for the benefit of all. We, as humans, are tool-using creatures, and we are really interested only in what we can use. It is the same with information. We can use information that has utility to our and others benefit and thus I'm constantly on a look-out for useful information."

Some of the books mentioned include:

M. Scott Peck - The Road Less Traveled

Marcus Aurelius - Meditations

Existentialism (whatever you're drawn to)

Eckhart Tolle - The Power of Now, A New Earth

Jordan Peterson - Maps of Meaning, 12 Rules for Life, Beyond Order

Matt Kahn - Whatever Arises, Love That

Kamal Ravikant - Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends On It

Daniel Quinn - Ishmael

Don Miguel Ruiz - Four Agreements

As ever, in joy, enjoy!

Cara Lehmann, ERYT 200 & Reiki Master

Cara has  been a massage therapist and level II Reiki Practitioner since 2008.   During this time, she has discovered and developed an ability to receive messages from the spirits and guides that surround us.  Trusting these impressions and sharing them with the client facilitates healing on many levels.  In November 2012,  she was certified as a Reiki Master which allows her to teach and attune others in this awesome modality. Yoga is another means by which people can heal themselves.  It transformed her body and spirit, and so inspired, she completed a  200 hour yoga teacher training in September of 2013.  In May of 2015, she  completed a 30 hour course in Yin Yoga, which has taught her the beauty of surrender and balance.  Cara  strives to offer all of her clients a nurturing, healing environment whether they need closure with loved ones who have passed on, the energetic healing of Reiki, a guided meditation, or just some time on their yoga mat.

Jacob has nature wisdom, native spirit, genuine humbleness and deep honest words. I'm so honored he's shared some moments here to hear. In love, in joy, enjoy!

This episode was a bit of a surprise to do due to unplanned life events. In preparing to soon close season 1 I had fortuitously been reviewing my season-long notes for what I still wanted to cover and so was able to flow on some content meaningful to share. Apologies for some moments of poorer sound quality than I would prefer - hopefully it is not too bad. Take a breath, be present in this moment of joy for being, and enjoy!

An economist by trade and a sportsman at heart. Guided by discipline, structure and progress. A 40 year old experiencing life and loving it’s challenges. Please, in joy, enjoy!

Heather Dreske has a meaningful story to share to give light, insight and comfort to her readers and listeners in this second warm and wonderful conversation here in Part 2 (in case you missed it, go back 1 episode to check out Part 1!), where we discuss various methods of healing treatment that have been effective for Heather with an illness that proves difficult to effectively treat. From reiki to light therapy and even ghosts, this second interview is a fascinating continuation of the first.

A bit about Heather: Major in Psych and a Minor in Africology, in 1994 volunteered in office for Public Allies in Milwaukee (which Americorps was based on), worked as an Ally at as Economic Development Coordinator in a Milwaukee neighborhood organization and was rewarded with a Proclamation for a day in my name by the Mayor of Milwaukee for her work there. Through this work Heather became acutely aware of the poor health of adults and children due to economic insecurity and stumbled upon Naturopathic Medicine with a plan to come back to that area to create a holistic clinic (though that path would eventually lead elsewhere). 

Heather attended Blue Sky massage school and opened an independent office, went back to school for pre med prerequisites and lived in Nice, France during winter break through the Hofstra Univ of NY exchange program.

Heather attended Southwest Naturopathic Medical School in AZ, passed the boards and maintains her license. 

Around 2003 she started noticing she wasn’t completely well and within a few years discovered through her own research that her symptoms aligned with what was then called Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or CFS, now more appropriately understood as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis or ME - which in the news a lot now with regards to Covid-19 long haulers.

This lead to Heather committing to as much advocacy work as her health allowed to promote better understanding of CFS (broad spectrum) and ME (more specific)  including facilitating the first showing of the documentary The Forgotten Plague by Ryan Prior , being filmed for the Sundance award winning documentary Unrest (though she does not appear in the final cut) and promoting ME organizations, advocates and writers.

She has and continues to blog BEAUTIFULLY about her direct experience with the challenges she faces with ME at HeatherDreske.com - her writing is sincere, accessible, informative and moving. Her main priorities are now her dog Daisy (after a heartbreaking loss of her fierce friend and canine companion and attentive healer of 15 years, Sophie), friendships and family and showing up the best she can, missing most the ability to travel, spontaneity, eating out and the feel of having a healthy body.

Please enjoy this conversation with gratitude and consciousness in all of the joy that it has to offer.
