TW: Death, abortion, rape  How to love your life by understanding death- whether you have an irrepressible zest for life or you’re struggling to find joy and make this life make sense, we can all connect more deeply with life through its opposite… death.   This is part one of an absolutely fascinating (and quite fun) interview with Dr. Mary Helen Hensley where we re-examine our relationship with death and life. Dr. Mary Helen brings her insights into the human nervous system through her work as a chiropractor, author, and healer, with a very unique twist- she had a near-death experience in her twenties that changed everything.   Dr. Mary Helen shares the story of her near-death experience as well as her deep connection to the spiritual realm as a child, despite growing up in a household that didn’t naturally accept her gifts. With Dr. Mary Helen’s Astrological chart on hand, Debra immediately connects Dr. Mary Helen’s experiences beyond the veil with components of her chart.    This conversation holds practical, easy-to-understand analogies and insights on what happens beyond this life, and through a richer understanding of our karmic paths (as indicated through our Astrological charts) and what happens beyond life, we can lean more into loving our experience in this lifetime.   Get your copy of Dr. Mary Helen Hensley’s Promised by Heaven here: https://amzn.to/3UUCxD8  Key Highlights From The Episode   How to love your life by understanding death and reexamining your relationships with life and death   Incredible recollections from a near-death experience   The relevance and importance of regulating your nervous system in the physical and spiritual realms   Understanding the energies of Pisces, Aquarius, Taurus, Scorpio, and Gemini within different applications in a natal chart   Insights from beyond the veil and beyond our human constructs of time   Timestamps [0:46] Introducing the I Don’t Believe In Astrology Podcast and an introduction of our guest, Dr. Mary Helen Hensley [1:45] “Having an affair on life” as we are called to re-examine our relationship with death and life  [2:21] Debra shares a personal story of dealing with death and honors her friend Tim in this conversation [3:50] Dr. Mary introduces herself  [4:50] Interpreting Dr. Mary’s Astrological chart highlighting Pisces, Aquarius, Taurus, and Scorpio energy [7:13] Dr. Mary shares about her upbringing with a southern baptist father  [8:44] Dr. Mary’s mother had the German measles while pregnant with her and her father’s “event” that helped give him clarity around Dr. Mary’s life path [10:45] The importance of “Judge” in Dr. Mary’s story [12:43] “The kitchen table talk” and Dr. Mary’s ability to see spirits [13:40] Dr. Mary’s practical analogy around how she sees people in spirit [14:38] Dr. Mary’s tells the story of her near death experience [17:38] Details around Dr. Mary’s out of body experience and the awareness of being “the master of your own ship” [19:20] Debra seeks confirmation around a premonition and a car accident [20:55] What happened after the first sound Dr. Mary heard and its connection to our soul frequency [22:37] Dr. Mary describes what happened just before her life review moment and connection to elderly people  [25:25] Debra echoes the imprint of NDEs and where most people can’t connect to the experience [26:18] How long Dr. Mary was outside of her body and the breakdown of the constructs of time [27:32] The life review moment that changed everything for Dr. Mary [29:27] What happens in a near-death experience that juxtaposes when we attach the ego to this reality [30:48] Experiencing different realities and the spinning plates analogy [31:43] Astrology enters the past-life karma chat [33:08] Debra shares about her new book that will come out in 2025 [34:01] When Dr. Mary was given the choice to come back into this lifetime [37:20] “You already are that which you seek.” [38:39] The relevance of regulating your nervous system [39:15] Speaking to the traits of Gemini Rising [40:55] How interfering with the nervous system can be a tool for growth [41:44] The reminder for us all through this conversation [42:32] Why do we study Astrology?

How to find pleasure in being in a body, creating a dialogue between your emotional and physical body. These two human systems are critical to our well-being and experiences in life, yet we tend to evaluate and feel them separately, which can create dis-ease. Finding pleasure in the body can be key to fully embracing your incarnation in this lifetime.   Debra is joined by Liz Letchford who, by way of the evolution of her work, has embodied a mission to bridge these two worlds. As Liz says, “We came from the stars,” and she has actually learned components of Astrology by relating the signs to the systems of the body.    Liz speaks to marrying the two oppositional worlds of science, through her sports medicine and PhD in biomechanics, and the mystical world within her somatic and intuitive work, which she shares about within this episode. Sitting in the middle between opposing energies and showing how one can support the other is one of Liz’s great abilities, as evidenced by her Mercury in Pisces.   You’ll get to experience Liz’s Aries energy, her fun-loving Sagittarius vibe, and the intuitive, sensual nature of her Cancer Moon and Venus in Taurus. Tune in and refresh your perspective on the pleasure of being in a body, whether you have left that behind or have yet to feel it. It’s time to reconnect our physical and emotional planes.     Connect with Liz Letchford here: https://bit.ly/lizletchford  Key Highlights From The Episode   How to find pleasure in being in a body by creating a dialogue between the emotional and physical    How an event in infancy charted the course for Liz’s focus in this life   An exploration of how unprocessed emotions create physical symptoms    The interpretation of similar Astrological components Liz and Albert Einstein share    The need for creating bridges between seemingly opposite worlds, like the physical and emotional and the logical and mystical   Timestamps [01:04] Introducing the I Don’t Believe In Astrology Podcast and an introduction of our guest, Liz Letchford, who shares about her relationship with Astrology [02:34] Liz introduces herself   [03:55] Where we need to give Pisces credit as Debra interprets Liz’s Mercury in Pisces [05:57] The connection between Liz and Albert Einstein’s Astrological charts [06:32] Liz shares about her shift into embodying her science and work [07:18] “Unprocessed emotions create physical symptoms.” [08:20] Sharing Liz’s Astrological chart and breaking down some key components [09:36] The last time Liz cried and why it’s part of her embodiment practice [10:49] Debra shares her gratitude for people like Liz [11:42] How Liz’s lifestyle had to change to match her intuitive and emotional needs [13:32] Why people come to see Liz in her professional work [14:21] What Liz wishes people would do [14:54] Liz shares something shocking she did as a child, the moment she got disconnected from her body, and how it lead her to where she is now [17:23] Bringing the unconscious imprint up, as Debra works through in Tell Me A Story [18:03] Debra shares about what it means to have your Moon placement in a Water sign and a Water House [19:34] Appreciating your incarnation no matter where you are at in your soul’s evolution [20:28] Liz shares about a recurring dream about a spiral and Debra connects that symbol to the soul’s evolution [21:17] What Liz couldn’t live without [22:17] Liz shares something somewhat “hidden” about her work and a story of it coming into play during a session [26:14] The slogan Debra had on the back of her business card [26:43] Debra shares a key takeaway for the audience  [27:17] Someone alive or passed on that Liz wishes she could have a conversation with [28:46] If Liz wasn’t talking about the body, she would be interested in… [30:27] Debra’s feeling about Liz’s gift in this life [30:55] Where Debra and Liz met [31:34] Closing out the podcast
