Do you know the true source of your healing? It’s not a pill or a vial. It’s not even your coach or your mentor. No, your greatest source of healing comes from within, from your own medicine.

In today’s episode, I’m chatting with indigenous medicine woman Asha Frost about her book You Are The Medicine.

As a medicine woman, Asha guides others through their healing journeys, helping them decolonize their thoughts and understand the signs they receive from the universe.

But a huge part of what she does is guide her clients to see their own power and facilitate their own healing.

Join me in today’s episode as I chat with Asha about becoming your own medicine and connecting with your inner self. She’s talking about the process of decolonization and how to broach the topic with others, especially children and older generations. Plus, she’s sharing the value of connecting with your own ancestors and implementing their teachings in your spiritual journey.

About the EMBODIED Podcast with Elizabeth DiAlto 

Since 2013 I’ve been developing a body of work that helps women embody self love, healing and wholeness. We do this by focusing on the four levels of consciousness - physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.

In practical terms this looks like exploring tools and practices to help you  tune into the deep wisdom of the body and the knowing of the heart, which I believe are gateways to our souls. Then we cultivate a new relationship with our minds that allows the mind to serve this wisdom and knowing and soul connection, rather than override it, which is what many of us were taught.

If you’ve been doing self help or spiritual development work for a while, these are the types of foundational things that often people overlook in pursuit of fancier concepts that often aren’t practical or sustainable. Here, we will focus on building these strong foundations so you can honestly and thoroughly embody self love. If you’re feeling it, subscribe to the show, and leave us a review wherever you listen from. You can also keep up with show updates and community discussion on Instagram here.
