Stories can open us up into the vastness of the cosmos & our connection to all that is—before books, and screens—there was the power of the land speaking to us. Stories can also become our prison. Sacred self care is about observing and releasing old stories that diminish you and opening into creating new ones to serve your soul's expansion. The stories we are holding onto in our personal lives and in the collective are beginning to dissolve on their own, or be forcefully dismantled. How can we become more adept at identifying removing those that do not serve from our own space? Christine shares three ways stories can show up in our lives and how to move through practicing sacred self care. This is an invitation to rewrite our outdated stories and remember we are the powerful creators who are stepping in to tell the victory stories of these times.  https://awakenedwomanselfcare.com/podcasts/

In this episode host Christine Pensa explores how we can move through the polarity of solution and problem with more ease and grace. It’s been a trope that we don’t truly change until a problem, a dis-comfort or a dis-ease comes up in our lives. Then we set out to “solve” it. That’s not necessarily where we get tripped up, but we often use the energy of “trying” or “solving” something, which puts us on the same frequency (and in direct polarity) with what we originally perceived as a difficulty in our lives.  If we continue to loop with a “problem” in polarity, then we get trapped on a disempowering frequency, where the solution we crave continues to evade us.  Rather than walking a never-ending loop, we are called to sit in the stillness of ourselves to find the clarity that our own source medicine holds. “Let the waters settle beloved, for it is then you will find the clarity you crave.” In that space we begin to recognize the limitations we have taken on as though it is our own story and even believe it is written in stone. It is time to free ourselves from thought forms we perceived as solid and release them from our beautiful bodies by embodying the medicine we are here to be. Igniting our superpower of choosing to take whatever action is needed in a more efficient and streamlined way.  When we align with that sweet spot within and let the waters settle, when we allow our own source medicine, we invite ourselves to become something organic, new, and at the same time, infinitely more of who we have always been.  Thank you for listening and thank you for sharing the podcast.  Our show page for more is; https://www.artthatmoves.ca/podcasts/

Episode 182 Let the waters settle beloved, and find clarity within

This episode sprung from the poem Observer Status (see below). It’s an invitation to move from an unhealthy observer role to a more healthy discernment of where external “authorities” make sense for us and where it is simply a program being run on a loop. As always, sacred self care means we are willing to take responsibility for ourselves.  As things in our external world become more visible, our role as passive observer becomes less palatable. We are being asked to consider ever more deeply, what are you choosing now? How can you turn up the volume on who and what you are here to bring to the world?  Noticing, observing if and how you might be unknowingly be letting your divine expression remain untold. It’s time to get up off of your seat and express through your art of living.  ~Observer Status ~ Consider beloved  All the ways we have been relegated to the role of observer  Taught to be content, watching the dance of life unfold  Narration by self appointed experts, few allowed onstage, a puppetry of anointed ones  Consider beloved—who did this choosing—designating us as audience? While the powerful stories moving through our divine expressions remain untold Time to leave our seats Time to remember how and what we are here to sing, to dance,  to paint in this, our unique, infinite, ongoing art of living  Time to embody the cosmic song of life being sung through us  ~ (art & poetry Christine Pensa) Link for more on all episodes through my show page; https://www.artthatmoves.ca/podcasts/ Available everywhere you get your podcasts. 

Episode 181 Releasing Observer Status (maybe it’s time to leave your seat)

We know it’s time to wake up from who we thought we were and begin to thrive, and to live in harmony with all living beings. In part four of a story series, host Christine Pensa considers the evolution of sacred story and what that means for us right now on this Earth.  This episode explores these questions; What stories are we continuing to give our attention to in the external world? How do we notice the purposeful distraction and realign with what we know we are here to embody? How can we take the beauty and internal heart expansion that stories can bring and leave behind what doesn’t serve us?  The new story we want to materialize now is one that we can choose to weave and spin into this world. Remembering we are these divine points of universal light capable of spinning and weaving together a blanket of golden threads across the world — all by more fully embodying the love that we are.  It’s time to walk out of old stories, and recreate this world the way we know it should be. We can choose to become the new story of this Earth together, and it's more beautiful than anything we have been led to believe.  Much love (Find parts 1, 2 and 3 in Episode 113, Season 3 Story and the evolution of your sacred narrative, Moving into your new sovereign story, Episode 114, Season 3 Evolution of Story part 2, Choosing to Embody Creator Truth, Episode 115, Season 3, Evolution of Story part 3, Choosing as your superpower.)

Episode 180 Weaving our new story into this world (Story series Part 4)

Elaira Flow returns for what organically became part two to our original episode 151. You can find that episode in the show page archives (Episode 151 The Curren-sea of our new businesses with Elaira Flow). Elaira brings over 20 years of experience as a trauma informed somatic business coach, a healer with extrasensory abilities and an architect of new business paradigm that is necessarily holistic, including all aspects of ourselves. Over the years she has observed trends and directions of business and what is thought possible through structure only, which often does not work. Her work is an invitation for us to approach business (and life) holistically.  The spark that lit this joy-filled conversation was Elaira’s instagram post about the clarion call to move into being a leader in our own lives, rather than accepting everything outside ourselves. Self leadership capacity is one of the things she focuses on in her work. She shares that in the new business paradigm we are the leaders of our own lives, claiming both that freedom and responsibility for ourselves.  This year opened with a powerful new frequency in which many of us are hearing. It is a call to step away from simply accepting what has been, and being filled with what we don’t want, into more of what we want to see on this Earth now. Elaira invites people to notice and compare how much of their day is spent accepting life, and how much time they spend per day “crafting life,” dreaming, choosing, paying attention to what they truly want.  Elaira has crafted a model of 8 capacities, all of which are holistic, reaching into our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual bodies. She calls our businesses, the dress you put on these healed aspects of yourself—learning and recognizing your capacity covers it all. Aligning our energetics, our blockages, our nervous systems so the mind and the action steps can flow, rather than staying as Elaira says, “in familiar hell.” She says if we create from the brain only, we continue to create what we know and we do not step into the dreaming because we become sidetracked by the “greed of how.”  Capacity work does not mean we will never encounter fear or doubt, Elaira says, the difference is that we will learn how to hold more, both the “good” and the “bad” so nothing stops us from moving through in alignment with ourselves, with flow and with ease. With pioneering work like what Elaira is offering, this is how, together, we change the world. So it is.    Link to Elaira’s Capacity Path program here; https://www.elairaflow.com/capacity-path/  Elaira’s Rise program; https://www.elairaflow.com/the-rise/ Elaira’s podcast; https://www.elairaflow.com/podcast/ For more information and episodes visit the Awakened Woman Self Care podcast show page here; https://www.artthatmoves.ca/podcasts/  

EPISODE 179 Elaira Flow, (Part 2) How holistic Capacity work moves us into new self leadership in business and life

My guest in this (love) full episode is Jarmila, Transparent Crystal Spirit Guide, Blue printer, Soul master healer, and human issues energy healer. As Jarmila shares; “Through my work I have found that my soul originated from the Prime Creator, the Infinite Mother Goddess of All Creation. At the soul level my choosing has been of healing divine service through the physical representation of sacred feminine and  to participate in co-creating of new path-ways bringing freedom, higher consciousness through many healing modalities.”  The episode begins with a be-moreing meditation. We continued this incredible, expansive conversation when I asked Jarmila to share her experience of the Coherent Field. It’s difficult to summarize, but in part Jarmila emphasized the need to remember our original genetic lineage. That it requires discernment, it requires being fully present, and it needs our own feedback and awareness of how our own brain and central nervous system functions, and where the interruptions come from. It is the intent everyday to exercise our “sovereign free will being-ness in accordance with Universal law and Mother Earth sentience.” It is the discovery of what it means to be you as a unique individuated creation. As Jarmila says, “That is your beautiful artistic opportunity and investigation to follow your call.”  Love in Action was at the core of our discussion for me. I know that Jarmila approaches healing through love in action and as she says; “Healing is a process of an energetic and spiritual alignment at all levels. You are always looked after by beloved Prime Creator. This planet is a sacred planet.” You can connect with Jarmila through her website here; http://jarmila.love/ or her YouTube channel The Awakened Woman Self Care podcast show page; https://www.artthatmoves.ca/podcasts/
