  • Activate Your Goddess Brain with the Medicine of Flow with Dr. Jinju

    Activate Your Goddess Brain with the Medicine of Flow with Dr. Jinju

    First, you may be wondering, ‘What is the Goddess Brain?’ In short, it’s a much needed, updated, story of the female brain.  To activate your Goddess Brain is to reawaken those sacred feminine aspects, including ancient, ancestral, circuitry, that have atrophied over time. In this presentation, we will examine where the realms of the female brain, flow state psychology, neuroscience, and spirituality converge. Through this convergence, we'll discover a crucial missing piece, or two, that's integral for women’s healing and for the global awakening of feminine consciousness.

    While this presentation focuses on women, no matter your gender, cultivating the feminine aspect of “flow” can unlock profound therapeutic benefits. Are you ready to tap into this transformative energy?

    From her days in behavioral neuroscience to the Burning Man playa - as a woman, wife, and mother who struggled with healing her own trauma for years - Dr. Jinju shares how the medicine of flow, yoga, and dance transformed her life . . . . and can transform yours.

     

    Rewire Your Brain, Release Trauma, and Reclaim Joy with NeuroSomatic Flow™

    We find ourselves at a point in our evolution where we are being called to explore new modalities of healing to optimize our full potential. Not just any new modality will do, however. We need new technologies that not only allow our brains to rapidly adapt and process ongoing massive changes of reality, but also unlock creativity for new possibilities to ultimately THRIVE in this fast-changing world.

     

    In this lecture and workshop, you will learn solutions that don’t require a pill and are easily accessible to anyone. All you need is an open mind, heart, and a desire to open to your infinite potential.

     

    As a neuroscientist, coach, mother, and human committed to supporting other humans to heal and transform while unlocking their creative potential, there is a concept that has made one of the biggest differences for her and her clients:

     

    When the body learns to move in a new way, the brain rewires itself to perceive in new ways... all while simultaneously releasing old trauma & stories that no longer serve.

     

    In this talk, Dr. Jinju Dasalla weaves scientific and spiritual threads to shed light on the neuroscience of somatic healing and self-direct neuroplasticity through the medicine of flow, yoga, and dance. This workshop will spark an awakening of your Inner Fire guidance system, and also introduce you to a unique, healing modality called NeuroSomatic Flow™.

     

    From her days in behavioral neuroscience to the Burning Man playa - as a woman, wife, and mother who struggled with healing her own trauma for years - Dr. Jinju shares how the medicine of flow, yoga, and dance transformed her life, and can transform yours.

  • North Node & South Node Astrology with Kauakea Winston of Vesta Mystery School

    Kauakea Winston is a western astrologer and energy healer who has been teaching at Sacred Path Healing School since 2004. As the former assistant director of the 3 year program, She developed and teaches curriculum to enhance lifestyle and diet, helping students find their authentic voice and a playful interactive astrology class. Her approach to astrology is in finding compassion for oneself and one another for this earthly  journey.

    In this episode we explore the importance of understanding one's North and South Nodes in their astrological birthchart.


    The North and South Nodes, also known as the Lunar Nodes, are celestial points that not only reveal your purpose in this lifetime but also the forces driving you toward it: The North Node is where you’re going, and the South Node is where you came from. These powerful and highly spiritual astrological placements offer extraordinary insight into your greatest strengths, weaknesses, and unbridled potential.

    The North and South Nodes are geographic points, calculated based on the orbits and locations of actual celestial bodies.

    According to evolutionary astrologer Steven Forrest, “Astronomers seek to know the form of the heavens, astrologers pursue its meaning.” Our natal chart, which is the snapshot of the cosmos at our first breath, contains within it insights that help us understand our essential nature, including our deepest fears, driving forces, inner psyche, innate preferences, and core values. It also speaks to our spiritual nature, encompassing our purpose, destiny, and soul growth. The most insightful foreteller of destiny in our charts are the lunar nodes, commonly known as the north node and the south node.

    Kauakea lives and works on the Big Island of Hawaii and offers energy and sound healing primarily focusing on the chakra system and combining astrology with the teachings of Sacred Path Healing school. She offers her services on Big island as well as via  "Zoom" video conferencing worldwide. She is a member of OPA - the Organization for Professional Astrologers and is available to give talks in person or on-line.

  • The Connection of Buddha & Christ Consciousness, Mother Mary and the VESAK FULL MOON with Ordained Bodhisattva Julie

    Join Marni on The Golden Thread Podcast in welcoming a fellow Ordained Bodhisattva Julie of Golden Rose Healing. We are thrilled to have her on the program discussing the importance of the upcoming Full Moon of May and the birth of Buddha and enlightenment day with the VESAK or WESAK Festival.

    "Vesak", the Day of the Full Moon in the month of May, is the most sacred day to millions of Buddhists around the world. It was on the Day of Vesak two and a half millennia ago, in the year 623 B.C., that the Buddha was born. It was also on the Day of Vesak that the Buddha attained enlightenment, and it was on the Day of Vesak that the Buddha in his eightieth year passed away.

    Julie interweaves this knowledge from her own buddhist lineage, to Christ Consciousness and even the connection to the feminine principle of Mother Mary and Mary Magadlene.

    Julie is a French born Soul Alchemist and Ascension Guide. She has been running Golden Rose Healing since 2019 where she heals & awakens consciousnesses as a Channel of Source Light. She offers personal & channeled guidance, teachings and healing through her energy healing sessions, mentorship, online workshops and guided meditations. 

    She works with the Rose and under the patronage of ascended masters such as Lord Buddha and Sananda, Mother Mary, Mary Magdalene and various Cosmic Councils of Light.

    She is an ordained bodhisattva in Soto Zen Buddhism - practicing since 2016 and ordained since 2018. She has a Master's Degree in Applied Foreign Languages (English and Japanese) with a major in Humanitarian Project Development."

    Julie has a waitlist happening for her upcoming retreats to the South of France to reconnect to Mary Magdalene and Mother Mary - find it waitlist option on her website.

  • Rock Your Bliss Retreats & The Power of One with Lulu of SWELLWOMEN

    IGNITE YOUR JOURNEY. ROCK YOUR BLISS - The Power of ONE with Lulu Agan of SWELLWOMEN

    Join host @marnisuureynolds as she welcomes to the program a dynamic and inspirational retreat leader and owner of SwellWomen, Lulu Agan. In this episode, we cover topics of how to run a retreat business, the power of living your dreams, why taking a 'break' and blissing out with a retreat is vital and her new venture - The Power of One.

    SwellWomen inspires & empowers women to rock their bliss through curated retreats, online experiences, and bespoke mentorship with a focus on health, happiness, and living in alignment with your most powerful vibration. In 2023, ⁠SwellWomen ⁠celebrated 20 years of helping women pursue their bliss, and empowering brave women to fearlessly fall in love with themselves again.

    LuLu Agan Surfer, yogini, and empowerment coach with over two decades of experience guiding women to craft their most blissful lives possible. Drawing from her vibrant background as a globe-trotting corporate executive, entrepreneur, and private chef, she brings a unique blend of worldly wisdom to her offerings.

    As an RYS600 Yoga Teacher and IIN Certified Coach, she has honed her skills in surf, yoga, adventure travel, wellness, and empowerment coaching. The ocean, with its ability to erase egos and unleash the raw human spirit, has been her ultimate teacher. Yoga, on the other hand, brings balance and a deep connection to oneself. These lessons aren't confined to her surfboard or yoga mat; they're easily carried into her daily life.

    Lulu aims to empower women to prioritize their health and well-being and to discover a new sense of vitality allowing them to connect with their limitless potential through tailored empowerment retreats and online coaching programs.  

    "My mission is to empower women to rock their bliss by being a living example of an impassioned, well-balanced life; filled to the brim with as much surfing, yoga, meditation and gratitude as humanly possible.  I believe the ocean has the power to erase egos, unleash bare human spirit and teach one to color outside of the lines, while yoga brings balance and a deep, supportive connection to oneself — all lessons that can be easily carried back to daily life, allowing that raw passion to color our every moment. "

    "The experience becomes a mirror, reflecting back the barriers they once perceived as insurmountable. With each successful wave they ride, they gain a fresh perspective on life's hurdles. It's truly empowering to witness them embrace their strength and realize that they are capable of overcoming any obstacle that stands in the way of what their hearts desire."

  • Becoming a Catalyst of INSPIRATION for Women’s Leadership with Michelle Gardiner of The Aspire Series

    Becoming a Catalyst of INSPIRATION for Women’s Leadership with Michelle Gardiner of The Aspire Series.

    Join me in welcoming Michelle Gardiner (https://www.instagram.com/michelle_gardiner_au/?hl=en) of The Aspire Series (https://www.instagram.com/theaspireseries/?hl=en)

    Michelle Gardiner is the Founder and Director of The Aspire Series, including Aspire Société, the Aspire Summit and 55 FACES. These constitute a movement for women who are dedicated to pioneering social change and impact as well as a methodology in facilitating change work. In this episode we discussed the current landscape in the women’s leadership and empowerment community globally. With her first summit (held in Bali, Indonesia) under her belt, I asked what she felt the common golden thread was with the women and what is the next story she wants written for women?  With close to 300 women featured through 55 Faces, and including four books from six continents, Michelle has curated an incredible platform. 

    It is Michelle’s intention in creating The Aspire Series, that as women, we can become more connected and heart centered leaders, and use one another to become the best that we can be, for ourselves and the future women who model themselves after us. From this place, we can truly influence change and shift the dynamic of both our local communities and global society.

    Michelle spent over fifteen years working in the Australian Child Protection and community sectors, supporting children, young people and families through some of their most vulnerable life experiences. Through hearing many life stories, Michelle became most passionate about raising the aspirations of women, which has greatly inspired her work with The Aspire Series. 

    Michelle holds a Bachelors of Social and Community Welfare, Graduate Certificate in Mental Health Science (Child Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy), she is a Yoga Teacher (500 hours - Moksha Yoga Academy), a Certified Life Coach, is undertaking her Masters in Narrative Therapy and Community Work, and has a background in leadership and empowerment program facilitation and trauma informed practice. Michelle also carries significant Non-For-Profit Board Member experience.

    • Integrative Approaches to Healing in the Traditional and Ancient Ways with Casey of SHRINKBIGGER
      Join Marni @marnisuureynolds of @thegoldenthreadpodcast along with Casey of @shrinkbigger in this engaging conversation around Integrative Approaches to Healing in the Traditional and Ancient Ways. This is a very intimate conversation about our own healing journey’s, the power of sacred and professional mentorship and the importance of integrative approaches to healing, trauma informed care and the mystical.  Casey @shrinkbigger is a Licensed Psychotherapist, Master Certified Coach and Licensed Hypnotherapist, MS, LMFT, MCC, CCHt and lives in Seattle, Washington (USA).
      “Healing has always come naturally to me, but during this time I was often tangled in the ‘shadow’ aspect of rescuing others. I was the wounded healer. The pervasive shadow side of my helping nature revealed itself when someone close to me suffered and struggled – a fragmentation of Self. As a result, my unconscious reaction was to consume myself with “rescuing” their fragmented parts. Because unconsciously my identity was wrapped into them being who I needed them to be for me. In doing so, I lost these sacred parts of myself, as well as someone I truly loved. During this period of loss, I had abandoned myself and was in need of soul guidance. And so, I devoted myself deeply to years of profound inner healing work. After immersing myself in my own therapy and healing, I became aware of myself and my relational patterns. The key was understanding my unconscious patterns and how incongruent I had become to my own values, and therefore to my true Self. The solution instead was to consciously create my aligned Self, living in accordance with my highest values – my wholeness.
      Inside that healing container and rediscovery of Self, I told my beautiful healer of my desire to help others create healing through their own traumas. I will never forget her loving response. She simply said, “I’ve just been waiting for you to say that.” Now I had the code to healing and transformation: conscious awareness paired with the conscious right action. Transformation was initiated. The path towards radical progress and growth was illuminated. I identified the equation to heal myself and others.”
      “Spirituality is a word often linked with religion. However, in my practice Spiritual Psychology bridges science and spirit. For me, spirituality is about Conscious relationships. The relationship with Self, others, Creator, Earth, to the future, to the past, and to our harmony with all these things NOW.
      Restructuring non-productive patterns to make radical transformations through conscious awakening. Through my multidisciplinary approach, I believe that true growth is unique to each soul. I work to guide clients towards cultivating a deep connection with their sacred inner wisdom so they may lead an awakened, meaningful life. With a decade of experience as a therapist and healer I’ve guided thousands of people through radical transformation and change.” Clinically trained, Mystically guided
