Oh you know we all feel it, now more than ever. FEAR.....we often let our fear rule our lives, but sometimes the fear we are experiencing is not a real threat, but rather a learned response.

Today my guest, Rebecca Ward, gives us suggestions on how to walk through fear, to get to the other side. And guess what lives on the other side - JOY!  She tells us that our system overreacts to fear causing that old flight or fight syndrome. We all know it's there, we just sometimes succumb to the fear when it is not real.

Rebecca has written a book called THE PAPER TIGER SYNDROME, with exercises and meditations to assist us in walking through our own fears. Having walked through many traumas, she has learned how to regulate her own nervous system to return to her Original Blueprint.  You original blueprint is the you filled with joy that you are born with. It gets stomped on and hidden as we go through life. Rebecca tells us that we CAN indeed return to it,  by recognizing our fears, exploring them, walking through them and finally returning to joy.

One of the key ways to do this is to regulate our breath. Rebecca takes us through a grounding exercise to assist us with this, so enjoy!

Rebecca is a licensed Marriage & Family therapist who specializes in grief & loss, trauma and stress reduction. She is a master somatic Experiencing Practitioner and is certified in Interactive Guided Imagery and the Integrative Enneagram. She also comes from a 30 year career as a management consultant and executive coach.

Today my guest is Elisabeth Hancock who is on a mission to help raise the consciousness of the world in part by sharing the science behind the woo.

Elisabeth joins me from Dubai where she currently resides with her husband and two children. She works with people the world over, to assist them in raising their own vibration in order to change the vibration of the planet, one person at a time. Elisabeth has done a deep dive into the science behind what raises our consciousness. She has explored quantum physics, the string theory and  Epigenetics and has researched many studies that prove that we can change our DNA and how one person can make a difference in the world.

Elisabeth actually raised her own vibration and lifted herself out of depression. She tells us how she did this, all on her own, by remembering her happiest day. She did this over and over and over again.  She proves that we can all change the way we think, feel and behave.

Her new book is called, Work Your Energy!The Entrepreneur's guide to raising your vibration, tapping into higher consciousness and achieving more happiness, success and wealth.  I read every single one of my guest's books, if they have written one, because I love learning. She gives us meditations and exercises to assist us in utilizing our own energy to raise our vibrations.  

I hope that you too will be able to open your mind to connect with your own higher consciousness after listening to this podcast.

And thank you for sharing, liking and subscribing to IGNITE YOUR SPARK!

May you SHINE ON,

Kim

Who loves food?  Most of us right?  And we probably know deep down how important nutrition is for our well being.  Today my guest is Kim Ross who holds degrees in clinical nutrition and dietetics long with certificates in holistic nutrition and a fellowship in herbal medicine.

We talk about how important it is to honor our bodies with food - eat the rainbow! And Kim is also realistic and shares that it's ok to eat what brings you joy - cookies, pizza etc, as long as you put some good (veggies, berries etc.) in with the not as good shall we say.

We all have different needs for our bodies and there is no one way to eat. Veganism may be great for some, while other people may need animal protein. Kim is an expert in knowing what each person's body requires to be it's optimal healthy self. Through blood tests, questionnaires and indepth discussions, Kim determines what is right for YOU.

We speak about how important it is to heal our body through our food, and we chat about adaptagens and some of the functions of various herbs.

Basically, we get to choose what to put in our body each and every day in order to help it heal!

Shine on with food!

Today's episode is all about Tapping or EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). Theresa Lear Levine is my guest and she is a Master EFT practitioner and Energy Coach.  She specializes s in helping women heal from the inside out, reclaim their power, release negative blockages and reinforce the positive.

Tapping is basically just what it sounds like, tapping on different meridians throughout our body (works in a way similar to acupuncture, but no needles!) This tapping calms our amygdala lowers cortisol levels and redirects our energy. I know it sounds unbelievable, but I have been using it for years for sleep and a variety of other issues and it WORKS.

After tuning in to this episode you will have a much better understanding of what exactly tapping is. AND, Theresa conducted and recorded a tapping session with me after our interview. She is making it available to all of you so that you can actually see what a session is and use your own words to start to change your own energy regarding a specific issue.

You just email her for a link to the video. It's so cool. And you will see me in my authentic real way, searching for answers like all of us.

Today my lovely guest is author and rite of passage Educator for women and girls,  Elizabeth Gould.  Careers in the art world and teaching led her to become the director of a non-profit committed to positive menstrual/menopausal education and awareness.

Coming to us from New Zealand, Elizabeth spent a few years writing her book. The Well of Truth, a delightful coming of age tale (of a woman), that grew out of her decades of experience as a mother, teacher, activist and from her love of mythology, goddess traditions and the moon.

We talk about the importance of taking time for yourself, so you can give more easily and thoughtfully to others. SO important. We also discuss the importance of embracing change in your life and of course we go off on tangents that will hopefully inspire you to embrace change in your own life as did Elizabeth.

Today's guest is so much fun! He is a Psychic Therapist and a medium who had a most unusual experience developing his psychic abilities when he was 28.

In addition to his special abilities, Vincent holds a BA in Psychology, a  Masters in Social Work and was a Hospice Clinical Social worker, helping hundreds of patients transition through their dying process while comforting their family and friends.

Vincent’s personal journey to realizing his true mission and purpose in life was wrought out of the trauma and pain he experienced as a child. He endured physical, emotional, and sexual abuse and did not have positive role models to encourage self-belief and self-love. Vincent began his career as an actor, appearing in several well known tv shows and plays and even appeared in the movie Grease.

Vincent is known as the “tell-it-like-it-is” and “truly authentic” Spiritual Teacher and Psychic Therapist. He combines his extraordinary psychic abilities, academic credentials, and genuine all-loving approach to provide healing for body, mind, and spirit. As a Psychic Therapist, Vincent uses his more than 36 years of training, research, and experience in the Metaphysical, Psychology, and Spiritual fields to dive deep into the psyche where true transformation takes place, helping clients to examine their beliefs and leave behind whatever is blocking them from the empowerment to heal their own weaknesses, imbalance, or lack.

His book, The Secret That's Holding you Back, gives us tools to develop conscious practices to help us live an authentically expressed life. He is warm and genuine and truly wants to help mankind by assisting us in the important arena of self-love!

Shine on!

Ken Lindner joins me today on Ignite Your Spark and we have an invigorating conversation about the principles in one of Ken's two newest books, written during the pandemic - ASPIRE HIGHER, How to Find the Love, Positivity, and Purpose to Elevate Your Life and the World.

Ken is the creator of the Positive Life Choice Psychology - which is a fabulous way to live. Basically our lives are created from the positive and negative life choices we make each and every day. AND, it's not too late to start making positive choices to start to feel great about our lives and how we show up.  

Ken is a graduate of Harvard University and has a law degree from Cornell. What is most impressive is his back story of how he got into these prestigious schools. His determination and positive life choices and incredible work ethic contributed to his success today as well. And one of my favorite fun facts - Ken beat Arthur Ashe in a tennis game the year before Ashe went on to win Wimbledon!

Ken is currently the founder and owner of one of America's most respected and successful news and hosting talent representative agencies. He is the author of 5 books and one of his goals in life is to help people live their dreams by showing them how to do so via his Positive Life Choice Psychology principles.

Inspiration and Motivation coming at you.....

Her business is called The Law of Attraction Tribe and her app is  The Manifest it Now app. She is also the author of a soon to be released book called Trust the Universe: Powerful Methods for Positive Manifestations and Raising your Vibration.

Once a shy and introverted girl who got the good grades and did the right things, landed a coveted job in a top company, rose the ranks and was managing a host of people at the age of 25, by 30, she was miserable. So she decided to create a life she did not need to take a vacation from.  She wanted to make a positive impact on the world.

The book The Secret, by Rhonda Byrne, changed her life and she started manifesting and hasn't stopped. Now she shares her manifesting tips on her app, in her "tribe" , in her book and on this podcast.
