Valenca is a midwife for grief.

Grief is the very natural and healthful response to change, loss, or evolution as it relates to something you love.

This conversation sheds light on the wonderful work she is doing within her village, with individuals, and how you can love yourself and your loved ones through the grief that comes with life's passages.

Listen to our stories and reflect along with us as we weave our way through aspects of this tender and critical subject.

Here we continue our tour through the chakra system and its interplay with the physical body as seen through the Pranic lens.

I love this material so much. Super dense, and yet so clear. I hope you enjoy.

We are solar powered beings!

But we now spend 93% of our lives INDOORS.

Brilliant founder of Sauna Space, Brian Richards, takes us through the fascinating body-wide healing phenomena of red light therapy. We cover all the science, the applications, and the specifics of how biologically relevant light (found largely in firelight, sunrise, and sunset) can cause massive changes in cell behavior, function, and repair.

There are hundreds of research studies on this subject. Over 400 gold-standard, placebo-controlled clinical trials exist on this subject.

It's only a matter of time before we see tanning salons and 7-Elevens popping up with this sort of therapy. Learn the facts now and become a savvy consumer on the good stuff.

Our bodies are solar panels that need to be fueled by the light that nourishes them.

If after this episode, you feel compelled to order a SaunaSpace product of your own, you can use promo code "AMRONMD" to receive a discount on your order.

Rollin McCraty, the Director of Research at the esteemed HeartMath Institute, establishes the credibility of this NASA-inspiring organization and drops the mic on subjects of personal mental balance and the science behind self-centering; the impact of local happenings on mood and measurable electrical bio-energetics of a community; the collective "think," and how large groups of likeminded consciousness can create a measurable electromagnetic field, detectable on a global level. 

Rollin scratches the surface of HeartMath's 25 years of research and establishes the full credibility of this NASA-inspiring organization.

The takeaways are vast and amusing. Rollin humors my whims and goes there on some wild topics that I hanker for further clarity on. I won't even try to capture them here. I hope you enjoy.

Here we begin our tour through the chakra system and its interplays as seen through the Pranic lens. 

Liza, the attorney and esteemed instructor of Pranic principals, walks us through patterns, connections, and applications between the energetic and the physical body, identifying links that can be obvious to the clairvoyant eye, but that are not so within the conventional medical purview.

I love this material so much. I hope you share my excitement. 

Takeaways include:

- distinct links between the basic "root" chakra and ADD, hyperactivity, insomnia and depression

- karma and honoring the "portfolio" you come in with

- what an overactive, enlarged sex chakra can look like on the physical level

- aspects of age-related decline and their interesting links to one chakra 

- hacks you can use at home to fuel up mental clarity and physical motivation

- home-based tactics for menstrual issues and discomfort

This is Part 1 of this segment.

Rachelle Garcia Seliga is a powerhouse.

A peaceful activist, midwife, mother, homeschooler and homesteader, she is the founder of a global training program for rising women, rising community leaders and birth workers. Her work is shepherding in a new world order of CULTURE, practice, and ways of living through rites of passage from birth, to lovemaking, to pregnancy, delivery, and death.

Women around the world have taken Rachelle’s trainings and are now administering care and community architecture to women and their families everywhere. Check out her work online at http://www.innatetraditions.com/

Her work is deep. The connections speak to our depths. Anyone can participate.

Resounding takeaways from our conversation:

We cannot use our analytical mind, our forebrain, and be in touch with our instinct/the intuitive aspect of ourselves, at the same time.

The more we heal ourselves from the destructive programming we have received, masked as modernization, intellectualization, and being civilized and “first-world,”  the more *access* we have to this innate knowledge. She calls it blood-memory. From our ancestors. This taps into epigenetics, that unseen thread across generations—patterns of behavior, heredity, social responses, and trends. It’s deep y’all.

There is a Social Nervous system in which humans co-regulate our nervous systems to each other. We are pack animals.

It’s not normal for a postpartum mom to be alone.

Tend and Befriend is a 3rd response in the autonomic nervous system for resolving situations, alongside, fright, flight, & freeze. #Polyvagaltheory

Rachelle is dropping knowledge about lost traditions and our connections to nature and the natural world.

We talk a lot about the female body in this episode, but this episode is for everybody.

I hope you enjoy the episode.
