Mind Less

This week the duo are back with a topic that’s terrifying to many and contended with by few, until recently: White Privilege! What is it, exactly, and how can we best use it to tear down the systems of oppression that unfairly affect our Black and Brown siblings? Lorena and Kelly explore how their privilege has affected and ultimately skewed their perception of the world (or, at least as Lorena would say, this particular hallucination) by sharing stories about how they, too, were once blind to the injustices that our friends of colour survive through every. single. day. Kelly dives into cultural appropriation and how it works as a tool to uphold racist stereotypes, and Lorena digs into how white-washed the spirituality community is and how activism is and always SHOULD be a cornerstone of any true spiritual practice. The pair wrap up the podcast with a discussion on white fragility and Black emotional labour, and how necessary it is that white folk use their privilege for GOOD so that we can all truly live as one.

This week we're participating in the #podcastblackout to help raise awareness for the Black Lives Matter movement! In this episode, we briefly discuss our privilege as white people (more to come on that, since this work is ONGOING) and why we thought it was important to participate, as well as read out a short list of names of black folx who have been murdered by the police in the United States. We wrap up with a call to action for our white peers, and a reminder that anti-blackness is not tied to one particular country - silence is complicity and we all have a part to play! Now is not the time to remain neutral.

“The world is created based on what you have within. Consciousness is the only reality.”

How would you feel if someone told you that you are entirely in control of your life? That you can affect everything that happens to you because your imagination is the very mechanism that creates reality? That you have this very power because you ARE god? BUCKLE UP BABIES, this week Kelly and Lorena are getting into manifestation and all of the deliciousness that goes with it. The two start off with a brief introduction into what manifestation is, including the differences between the law of attraction and the law of assumption. Then they dig into a bit of background on the man who suggested that assumptions harden into fact, Neville Goddard, and what it means to be “living in the wish fulfilled.”  Finally, the friends wrap up with an intense discussion on how consciousness is the key to manifestation since it connects us all through this human experience. Join Kelly and Lorena on Mind Less this week and learn more about how you can have your cake AND eat it too - because you already have it, love.

“Tarot reminds me the one thing that I have control over is my feelings.” Ever think a deck of cards could help you process your feelings? Neither did Kelly! This week we’re back and we’re digging into the tarot as a coping mechanism, specifically from Kelly’s point of view. The conversation touches on what tarot is, to how to start practicing it, and why it might be another useful tool to have in your toolbox. For Kelly, this looks like finding JUST the right deck, remembering that human life revolves around change, and discovering the root of defensiveness in their anxious mind. The pair also discuss the ethics of tarot as a profession and the most important thing of all - which card is your favourite? Tune in this week to hear how 78 cards can offer perspective, grounding, and space to heal.
