Speaking of strengthening, we are pleased to present to you our newest episode of Embodied Wellness featuring Beth Connon!

~

Beth Connon is a recognised personal trainer, certified in pre/post natal training as well as a cycle instructor based out of Edinburgh, Scotland. This remarkable woman truly does it all and from her experience has accrued a wealth of knowledge regarding a variety of women’s issues in healthcare and fitness. Though we know this is only a sliver of what encompasses the intersectional and dynamic topic that is “feminism”, this was definitely an illuminating and oftentimes shocking sliver to discover.

In this discussion around these aspects of feminism, we collectively explore how far there still is to travel in resisting gender based discrimination at all levels of society in seeking empowerment and safety in our bodies for all.

Thank you for listening 🤍

In this episode on Embodied Wellness we take a deeper dive into growth and we get extra personal. We reflect on the growth we’ve made in the podcast, growth we’ve made personally and share some of the surprises we have in launching our new website and platform. Though this episode is a bit shorter, hopefully it will help give you a better idea as to the direction of our podcast and our direction as individuals 🤍We also take time to explore the complex nature of growth, what it means as well as exercises we practice in our own lives to promote it

Happy 2021, embodied wellness listeners!

It has been a bit and we are so happy to be back with fresh content related to current patterns of mind/ body wellness ✨

~

During these difficult times it’s more important than ever to cultivate spaces of calm in our minds, bodies and if possible, physical settings. In the absence of external calm and disruption to human movement, our nervous system runs the risk of being overrun and the health conditions discussed may become a bigger part of our lives.

~

In this episode we discuss two of the biggest conditions to emerge from world events with direct links to anxiety and changes in our mobility: these are insomnia and digestive issues. If you are struggling with either of these conditions both currently and/or chronically please know that you are not alone and we hope that in this episode we can help provide relatable content, healing tips and gentle ways to calmly care for yourself during these times.

Wishing you safety, wellness and joy this new season 💕

We are pleased to present to you our long anticipated episode on dreaming! In this episode we dive deep into the dreamy waters of dream theory interpretation, mythology, symbolism and even interpret some of our listeners’ own dreams! Our resources are primarily sourced from the old-school texts of Carl Jung but let it be noted that ancient, indigenous cultures have been practicing these techniques for far longer. If you enjoy this episode and want in on the subconscious discovery, please continue to send in your dreams to us or better yet sign up for a 1-1 dream sesh with the lovely milena from her therapeutic account @allaye Panama 🇵🇦 English and Spanish offered

This episode is all about finding and embodying joy in our daily lives! Our last few episodes, much like the world, have focused on heavy topics. However, during this challenging period, we are pleased to bring you this little gift of joy, where we discuss the feminist joy, where joy lives in the body and ways to cultivate your own joy whilst living in the “new normal”. We invite you now to sit back, relax and focus on something beautiful (like this podcast! 😉) Lots of love as always, Podcastland!

Thank you for your patience, listeners 🙏we are excited to present to you our latest episode which ties challenging emotional states to the corresponding organs in the body. We explore these links through the practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine, a practice that emphasizes the cyclical connectivity between the emotional and the physical. In this episode, we will dive deep into examining the relationship between our livers and our anger. Furthermore, we will touch on how toxic positivity represses and blocks our channels; how capitalist culture gaslights us into disconnecting and disassociating from our bodily wisdom and how the violence inherent in white

supremacy leaves its scars on the organs within. We hope to provide you with tools based in TCM, reflexology and anatomy so that you can process, remove blockages and heal.

Ya sea que vivas en un estado o país que está comenzando a reabrirse o que todavía esté bajo restricciones, es posible que sientas que el equilibrio entre la vida laboral y personal no existe y que tú vida social en Zoom sea agotadora.

Toma un respiro con algunas de estas prácticas de bienestar arraigadas en la medicina tradicional china, que incluyen qi gong, acupresión, remedios herbales, entre otros. Esta rama de la medicina se basa en la idea de que el qi, o fuerza vital, fluye a través del cuerpo y cualquier desequilibrio puede causar enfermedades o dolencias. Según la Organización Mundial de la Salud, la medicina tradicional china, que se remonta a la dinastía Shang, la primera de China registrada en la historia de la Edad del Bronce, representa hasta la mitad de todas las medicinas consumidas en China.

No es sorprendente encontrar que la fobia social y la ansiedad por el desempeño ocurren comúnmente entre las personas que trabajan hoy en día, incluso los ejecutivos no están exentos (Verhaeghe, 2014). Esto se vuelve más comprensible cuando se considera que en la sociedad neoliberal contemporánea, sus colegas en el lugar de trabajo caen en la categoría de aquellos que tienen la tarea de evaluar su desempeño o el de sus competidores (que incluye a sus amigos en el trabajo). A veces, están en ambas categorías. Por lo tanto, es difícil para todos no experimentar ansiedad de manera intermitente, algo que fácilmente podría convertirse en una condición crónica. De los hallazgos de Verhaeghe queda claro que la procedencia de la fobia social es similar: en condiciones de intensa competencia, uno sospecha involuntariamente los motivos de las personas cuando le hablan sobre su trabajo, y, nuevamente, esto podría convertirse en una condición general. También se podría agregar la práctica neoliberal de la diferenciación salarial basada en el desempeño, lo que resulta en la desigualdad de ingresos que es característica de las sociedades neoliberales. La proliferación de problemas relacionados con la "salud mental" hoy no puede separarse de este estado de cosas.

Internal and External Rhythms~

During these times where many of us feel free floating in space, hungry for the routines that gave our days structure and longing to connect with the natural world once more, we are greatly in need of tools to help us find our rhythm again in this new, strange world. This episode is all about giving you tools to get back in touch with your internal rhythms and utilize external rhythms to build meaning and structure. We will touch on circadian rhythms, Ayurveda, meditation and the moon 🌚 enjoy!
