The Antidote with Rocky Russo

In this episode of The Antidote, I'm jamming on a rarely discussed concept called "letting the soul heal the body."

Inspired by my favorite way of doing exactly this, this episode was originally recorded as I was driving through Los Angeles on my way to a 50,000 person festival I was making my 7th appearance at.

I ditched that recording. This one is much higher quality and my vibe was much higher after the festival anyway. ;-)

Lightning in a Bottle is a music/yoga festival that lands on my birthday every year (minus the last two) and serves as the most abundant form of deep self-care for me. Now, for many folks, a 5-day party filled with 100K step-days, heavy bass music through sunrise and near sleepless nights, may not sound like "self-care." So, how does my life transform and majorly up-level every year following an event such as this?

Find out in this episode.

I'll give you a hint though... If we rely on the limited capacity of the body to inform us of how we are feeling, we'll most likely feel run-down. But if we feel past the body, we'll discover that our UNLIMITED soul just got set on fire. I suggest we rely on that to carry us into whatever comes next.

Please enjoy this episode and always

On this episode of The Antidote, I'm jamming on the most important thing.

Intention.

Why do we do what we do and how can we prioritize living out our purpose? This is the basis of every one of my companies and all of the work I do with my clients. Because, if we don't know why we're here, then we can't know where we are meant to go and what we need to grow.

In this episode, I give away some of the tools I use with my clients as soon as we start our journey and teach you how to apply them to every area of your life. I tell tales of my younger years and when I started meditating (at age 6). We talk about vegans, collective imbalances, and our addiction to contrast.

There is music, there are laughs, there is vulnerability, lots of learning, and a far more intimate share of what, how, and why I do what I do.

Please, grab the SHIP tools to tap into your personal core values, life mission and life vision. They are free for you and waiting inside my group. Say "hi" when you get in there. And please, continue showing up for life, on purpose, and for a purpose.

Enjoy this episode of The Antidote.

On this episode of The Antidote, I'm joined by my ukulele and the coqui frogs again.

This time, we are jamming on the subject of Your Tribe. Specifically, how we choose our tribe not with our words but with our vibrations. How are you showing up for life and under what lens are you viewing your circumstances?

I talk about the power of reciprocity, community, and the abundance found in truly selfless acts.

I share the start of a new song and reminisce on some of the ways I've continued to answer the call to live an intentional life.

Please enjoy this episode of The Antidote.

In this week's episode of The Antidote, I have the pleasure of interviewing a real-life wizard!

My dear friend, Dylan Varenhorst has traveled with me to multiple parts of the world, helped facilitate multiple retreats and workshops, and is here today to share the magic that he has been living and breathing for a full decade. That magic is the divinity practice of Human Design.

In this episode, Dylan and I explore some of the magic of quantum entanglement and infuse the spirit of reading a chart with validity and heart in an effort to uplift the frequency of the planet. Dylan unpacks the different Human Design Types, and profiles, and then breathes substance into the theories as he puts them into practice while giving me a live reading.

I am a 3/6 Manifestor for those who know what that means. And, whether this is all new to you or you have a practice in Human Design, get ready to have your paradigms shifted and your mind blown as we plunge into the chasms of this sacred practice.

Follow Dylan or book a reading on IG @humandesignmaven .

Body follows mind. Mind follows body.

This is what we explain when we are talking Somatics. In this episode, we take deep dive into the body from the first-person perspective. By doing this we become capable of clearing up stored energy and allowing life to move through us with ease and grace.

When we understand the basic concepts that we aim to teach in somatics, then we are able to prevent dis ease (disease) in the body and in the mind. By taking a trip inward, we can start to cure ourselves of patterns and postures associated with anxiety, depression, burnout as well as back, neck, and hip pain.

In the episode, I talk about giving way to my precious routine to make way for surrender and trust. The 9 people I'm currently living with, in our off-grid homestead and the adventures we get to share.

I play some new music, there are some rainstorms and noisy audiences of coqui frogs and much more.

Please enjoy this uninterrupted episode of The Antidote

Wow,

So stoked to share with my dear friend, and soul-sister, Kelli Heald.

We record this episode from our back porch overlooking the Pacific Ocean from our retreat venue on the East side of Hawaii Island.

Kelli and I have known each other for multiple lifetimes, but on this time around, we've come into each other's lives at pivotal times that has lead to so much growth, discovery, healing and transformation. All of which has gone into the creation of this episode.

Join us to find out what it really means to follow your dharma, to heal with love and to build from the ashes.

I hope you enjoy this episode with Kelli Heald.

In this episode of The Antidote, I have the honor of interviewing water expert and woke badass mother, Alexis Santos.

Alexis shares her story of going from superstar collegiate soccer player on her way to the pros, her struggle with a dehydrated body, mind and soul, and how she has been able to cure and elevate herself and her family to a whole new dimension of living.

I learn how not all mineralized water is the same, why structured water is more accepted by our cells, what can happen when we choose holistic remedies and so much more with this all-star and dear friend, Alexis Santos. Find her on socials @hydratedwatermama and reach out for any of your holistic hydration needs.

Please enjoy!

What if we stopped labeling emotions as "good" or "bad" and chose, instead, to be present in our remembrance that everything is fleeting and this too shall pass?

In this episode of The Antidote, we take a deep dive into the power of our emotions, by turning the spotlight back on the one who is capable of feeling the emotions fully. We do this on today's episode by exploring some of my poetry.

I've been writing poetry and prose since I knew how to spell and each poem is another glimpse into the human condition. Join me as we explore the highs of love, transcendence, and omnipotence, and descend with me into the depths of pain and heartbreak.

And then come out of all of it with me as we shake off every emotion to return ourselves to the space that has room for all.

I am not any of it, and yet I experience it all. Herein lies my greatest power.

Enjoy this episode of The Antidote.

In this episode, I'm jamming on the most important things to remember as we begin.

Whether you are starting a new job, a new relationship, or just a new week; START HERE.

The three simple steps to begin are:

Once you've done this work, you have a clear direction to place your energy. This way you don't go leaking it around in places it doesn't belong.

Making a change is hard. The beginning is imperative. So, start with intention and move with precision.

And always,

It's no coincidence that I'm releasing this episode right in the middle of the holidays.

Let's be honest, you're eating more junk and enjoying good company and your waistline is paying the price. GOOD! Enjoy.

Hopefully, this will allow you to enjoy fully because it is a battle-tested, tried, and true program to take you through the next three months in the gym so you can get ripped and stay ripped.
