Embodied with Elizabeth Patricia DiAlto Figueroa

For almost this whole year, something has been bugging me about the tagline you've probably heard me use many different times, "Get out of your head and into your body."

There are two implications that weren't sitting well with me: 1) That head and body are separate...hello! The head is attached to the body :) 2) That being in your body is "better than" being in your head.

So much of what we do here is about INTEGRATING mind, body, and soul, and FULLY ACCEPTING every single part of yourself.

That said, we'll be changing up our languaging around this and bringing light to how beautiful the mind actually is - especially, when you're putting practices into place to leverage it by connecting with your body and soul, too and that's what today's conscious rant is all about. Enjoy!

This was an electric conversation that I am so so excited to share with you today.

In this discussion we talk about breaking generational and cultural patterns (which if you listen to this show regularly, you are DEFINITELY here to do!) and all that it entails including healing core wounds, healthy processing of emotions and more. Enjoy!

I get asked a lot about power. In this episode I dive into what being empowered and disempowered look like and how to handle both whether it's happening internally or being caused by an external experience. I address making choices that are in alignment and how that relates to being in your power, and noticing where your validation is sourced from as a great indicator for these things as well. Enjoy!

I love, love, LOVE this question and it's been an intimate part of my own growth and transformation over the last two years. Helen asked, "How do I live with integrity while still honoring my intuition -- which means I sometimes need to change my mind or go back on agreements I previously made? "

There's a sacred dance between impulse and intuition that is highly influenced by our programming and conditioning. In this short episode I share some of my own experience and how I approach the dance.

We're adding a new segment to the show called Conscious Rant. This is for when a specific question hasn't been asked, but I am noticing a consistent theme come up in the community in the Facebook group, or with my clients and program members. This is stuff that feels and is important to address in a helpful and holistic way. Our first topic today is on treating emotions with the respect they deserve. Most people don't have emotional intelligence training, and if anything do have a lifetime of modeling of how to poorly handle emotions. This episode is intended to help out with that. Enjoy!
