It’s officially the Christmas season in my home. I love this time of year! It always fills me up with so much hope and happiness. 

Have you ever gone to a Christmas Market in your city or maybe one while you were traveling?

This is one of the things that’s on my bucket list to do before I die. My dream is to travel around during the month of December and visit various Christmas Markets all over the world.

Tis the season- I figured why not do an episode on some of the famous and maybe not so famous Christmas Markets around the world. And hey- some of these may even be in your neck of the woods!

A lot has been happening in the world as of late. I’ve been picking up a lot of intense energy and if you’re intuitive like me, you’re probably feeling really overwhelmed right now.

This time of year is meant to be slower and just like the leaves are falling off the trees, we too need to release what no longer serves us as we enter the winter months. I channeled a meditation for this purpose to help you release this energy that’s been around you lately.

In this episode, I am leading a guided chakra healing session using intuitively chosen crystals. We could all use some healing energy right now, so I am guiding you through this process to help you reconnect with your inner energy and find a sense of grounding and wholeness.

October is one of my most favorite times of year. I love Halloween and anything paranormal. During this time, you can find me watching scary movies, Halloween Wars on the Food Network, and those cheesy but oh-so-good haunting shows. That’s why when I visit a place that’s known for all these spooky things- I love to learn all about it and soak it all up. And today, I’m taking you along with me. Welcome to the Spooky edition of the Anxious Adventurer podcast. For the month of October I’m talking to you about spooky travel destinations. In this episode, I'm sharing some of my favorite ghost stories about New Orleans, Louisiana!

Healing is like a torrential downpour before you get to see that beautiful rainbow. But what many don’t tell you is that when the rain comes, it pours, then lets you dry up for a bit, and then another torrential downpour begins, and it’s time for more healing.

This healing journey comes in waves and just before you feel like you’re going to drown in the sea, you learn how to weather that storm.

Today is our last step in our journey to reconnection.

If you missed the last episodes in this journey to reconnection, here’s a recap. In Step one: I helped you reconnect with your intuition. In Step two: We reconnected with nature. In Step 2.5: I gave you a grounding meditation to help you reconnect your energy to the earth...

And this last part of the journey we’re going to take is going to help you reconnect with your mind and body.

Lots of people talk about grounding, but what does it even mean? Grounding, in the simplest description, is connecting your energy to the earth’s energy. 

In today's episode, before we move on to the final step in the Journey to Reconnection, I am happy to share insights about grounding as well as a meditation you can try right now (and then you can download it for later!).
