Time to pick up our Intuition series.

This episode is split into two parts.

Part 1 (minute 2.42): Firstly Gemma chats to Rachel about the two voices in our head. One being our ego mind (also called vitti and mind chatter). The second is our Higher self. They discuss how they differ, how to identify each one, and why this is so important when connecting to your intuition (a part of our higher self).

Part 2 (minute 40.58): Gemma asks Rachel to demonstrate the sway test. A simple technique that almost everyone can use to access their intuition without worrying about the ego mind getting in the way.

Nourishment - understanding Primary and Secondary food

In episode 2 of Modern Soul Speaks, the focus is on the concept of Primary and Secondary food. Rachel and Gemma discuss the idea that Primary food goes beyond the plate - it’s not the physical food we eat but the nourishment that gives us the joy, meaning or fulfillment that gives life its sparkle and makes us feel content. With physical food that we eat, called Secondary food.

If our Primary food zone is unbalanced, it can be easy to mistake physical hunger with an unfulfilled emotional need.

Rachel takes our listeners through the four key foundations of Primary food and how to determine if we’re eating Secondary food to fill a Primary food gap.

This is fundamental as Rachel will refer back to the concept of Primary and Secondary food in future episodes.

Finally: A Little heads-up to acknowledge that around the 16 minute mark of this episode the sound quality changes/improves a little. Even though we spent a good hour+ checking everything before we started recording, at that point we found out one wire was not connected correctly (the joys of a first time podcaster).

When this is correct, the sound improves but we believe it was still good before so in the interest of trying to be authentic and capture the experience of first-time podcasters we have chosen to keep that in rather than record the first part of the episode again.
