It’s a cold day in Sydney, and I really felt that today we could divert a bit from doing the regular type of podcast episode and instead, do an exercise, a guided meditation that can help us relax, connect to our Divinity, our heart and simply BE.

So, you are in for a treat! For today, I invite you to put everything aside, stop whatever you are doing and dedicate this time to you.

Enjoy! Sending you a very big and squeezed hug!

Laura

Note: Please do not do this exercise while driving or using heavy machinery.

Gratitude. It seems like we all know by now what this word really means. But are we really practicing it? Are we really experiencing it in a conscious way? Or is it just a buzz word?

What if our life, and the life of many others could be changed by the simple, yet powerful practice of gratitude and appreciation?

Collectively, we are are going through an intense period of growth and change, and the most amazing part of this, is that we get to choose our perspective and how we contribute in this world, We have the chance to make an impact right here, right now. And it can all start with a grateful action and a smile. What if we could all make our days a gratitude experiment, and open up to reaping the benefits of this powerful energy?

Well, that’s my invitation to you today. Are you in? ;)

With immense love and appreciation for you!

Enjoy!

Laura

Feeling. Sometimes, many of us, had to learn to feel, or are in the process of doing so. But, why? What’s the purpose of connecting to how we feel? Of noticing and being aware of what we are feeling? Well, because without that skill, we cannot heal and, therefore, we remain stuck. And so, today’s interview is about a type of technique that can help us tap into those feelings we didn’t even know existed, release them and move forward.

My guest today is someone I love deeply. His name is Stephen Duffy, he is a Certified EFT (Tapping) practitioner, based in Sydney, and he happens to be my husband too. ;)

During this interview we talk about what EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) is, how it works, what can happen during a session and most importantly how it can help us work through things such us frustration and overwhelm. Stephen also shares with us a powerful (but simple) exercise you can start practicing at home, or wherever you are, that can help you deal with frustration or other emotions in the moment.

I hope you enjoy this interview as much as I enjoyed interviewing my husband. ;)

Immense love your way!

Laura

In the second part of this interview with Julia Pomazkina from Sunrise Ayurveda, Ayurvedic practitioner & herbalist based in Sydney, we go deeper into the topic of stress and anxiety, and what can cause these conditions to arise and throw us out of balance or out of our neutral place.

Julia also shares with us the concept of AGNI and its importance from an Ayurvedic perspective, (you will be surprised what this is about and how it affects us!), and why maintaining daily habits and following the sun is the key to a happy & healthy life. She also shares three very useful tips with us to be able to manage stress and to reclaim our calm self.

There is also a present for you at the end of this interview so make sure you listen until the end!

Enjoy the second part of this in-depth interview!

With love,

Laura

We are so intertwined with nature and the whole of creation that sometimes we forget we are part of it! We are part of the whole, and what happens within us is a reflection of the outside, and vice versa. However, it is time to remember this connection! Because in this remembering lies the key to our health & happiness.

In the first part of this interview with Julia Pomazkina, Ayurvedic practitioner & herbalist based in Sydney, where she runs her clinic Sunrise Ayurveda, we chat about some of the Ayurvedic principles, and in particular we talk about the theory of the five elements, these being ether, air, water, fire and earth and how our innate constitution is intimately related to them. We also get to learn more about what happens when there is an imbalance and the effects of that in our health.

We will go deeper into how Ayurveda can support us during periods of stress and anxiety in the second part of this interview next week! So, stay tuned!!

In the meantime, enjoy the first part of this in depth chat with Julia!

Immense love your way!

In the second part of this conversation with Alison Morris, founder of Alasana Hypnotherapy and Yoga and Certified Master Practitioner of Hypnotherapy, we go deeper into what hypnotherapy is, and what it is not; as well as into one of the biggest topics of our modern world: anxiety & depression. Alison shares with us what, from her experience, is the biggest difference between anxiety and depression, and how these two factors are at the root of most of the issues we experience in our daily life. And of course, we talk about how hypnotherapy can support us in the journey of reclaiming our life back!

I hope you enjoy this episode!

Immense love your way!

We are, indeed, fascinating. On so, the best way to learn more about us, and to create real change in our lives is by going deeper into our mind. Specially, into our subconscious mind. One way to do that is with the help of hypnotherapy!

For today’s episode, I invited a wonderful woman, someone who is really an example of what willingness to change means. Her name is Alison Morris, she is the founder of Alasana Hypnotherapy and Yoga here in Sydney; she is also a certified master practitioner of Hypnotherapy, a master practitioner of NLP, master practitioner of Timeline Transformations, a Life coach, and a yoga teacher. In today’s interview, Alison shares with us her story of transformation, and how this led her to become a Hypnotherapist. We dive into the role of the subconscious mind and how we can influence it positively with this powerful therapy. We also talk about the root cause of what we perceive as issues, and the fact that we can take control of our life, by creating a solid foundation for long lasting change!

I hope you enjoy the first part of this interview.

See you next week for the continuation of this wonderful chat!

In the last episode we talked about how we must all grieve the world that is gone in a conscious way, and how by doing that, by coming to a place of acceptance, we can move on and take proper action. Today, I would like to talk to you about something that moves me deeply, and that is, becoming an active agent of transformation in our world, because it is time we take responsibility for our role as creators, and start creating more of what we want to see in this new world, the one that is just starting!

In today’s episode I share with you a paragraph from the book “A Return to Love” by Marianne Williamson, and would love to leave it here for you, mainly because it’s the inspiration for today’s talk. So here it is:

“We weren’t just randomly thrown onto a sea of rocks. We have a mission -to save the world through the power of love. The world needs healing desperately, like a bird with a broken wing. People know this, and millions have prayed.

God heard us. He sent help. He sent you.”

I hope it inspires you to become an active part of the change we want to see and experience here on Earth!

With immense love,

Laura

Yes, our world is changing, and quite rapidly. And for many of us, including myself, it felt as a bit of a shock. However, it is in bringing awareness to the emotions that are arising what will help us move into acceptance, and step into the New World with fresh eyes, with the feet on the ground and in the present, and ready to take on the new opportunities.

As the world we knew does not exist anymore, we must grieve it consciously, so that we can move on and also become positive change agents for the world that is forming at the moment. In this episode I share with you a few strategies we can start with so that this process is easier, more resourceful and of benefit to all!

Enjoy!

“Whatever the crisis, the fire of love will melt it.” -Mahatma Gandhi

Uncertainty is part of our daily life. Yet, it seems that right now it’s looking at us right in the eye. And so, we are being called to learn to accept it (for once and for all! :P ), and to navigate it with a perspective that support us, instead of one that throws us into fear, worry and despair.

It’s time for us to make use of our power of choice. Yes. That power that allows to choose how we feel about everything that happens in life, and of giving meaning to the different situations we are exposed to. It's time we become responsible for our decisions, and most importantly, it’s time we start living from the heart.

We have one of the greatest opportunities to learn about love: for ourselves, for others, for the whole of creation. Are you going to take it? Are you willing to change your perception? Remember, it's is never too late to start a new, and perhaps, this is the right time. 

Wishing you a powerful time of transformation!

Immense love your way!
