As we start our journey through Spring and Q2 - it's time to check in with ourselves - pause, reflect and realign. Let's celebrate our achievements over the last 3 months, acknowledge the lessons learnt and set fresh intentions for the current quarter.

🪻

In this episode, I explore the practical ways we can work with the lunar cycles to align more intentionally to the rhythms of nature. By understanding the phases of the moon, we can sync our personal rhythms with the natural ebb and flow of energy.

💫

I break down how each lunar phase can influence our mood motivation and productivity, and suggest simple ways to structure our routines, events and tasks, accordingly.

🌒 Waxing Moon – Energy builds, making this a great time for taking action, initiating projects, and stepping into momentum.

🌕 Full Moon – A time of peak energy, clarity, and expansion—ideal for socialising, creative expression, and celebrating progress.

🌖 Waning Moon – A natural period of release and introspection, supporting rest, re-evaluation, and letting go of what no longer serves.

🌑 New Moon – A time for fresh starts, setting intentions, and planting seeds for the weeks ahead. Perfect for journaling, goal setting, and quiet reflection.

📖

I also explore the deep connection between the moon and the menstrual cycle, highlighting how our energy naturally mirrors these cosmic shifts. Ovulation aligns with the full moon’s expansive energy—perfect for meetings, collaborations, and outward expression—while the luteal and menstrual phases call for inward reflection, rest, and slower movement, just like the waning and new moons.

🪷

I touch on the Duality of the Moon, the balance of feminine and masculine energies— Yin and Yang, Dark and Light, both present in the cosmos and within us.

🦋

Many cultures have revered the moon as both god and goddess, symbolising guardianship, creation, transformation, and renewal. By understanding and embracing these dual energies, we can recognise these within ourselves too. With this greater self awareness, we are able to work with our natural rhythms rather than against them, and harmoniously flow through life with greater ease.

20. The Akashic Records; A Cosmic Library of Everything, with Luz from Resoulment

💫

On the episode today, I am joined by Luz – founder of Resoulment.

🦋

Luz is an Akashic Records reader and mentor with seven years' experience helping people gain deeper insight into their soul’s journey. Through her readings, she offers a blend of spiritual wisdom and practical guidance, helping clients understand their current energies and take aligned steps forward. With a down-to-earth approach, she makes the mystical feel accessible, empowering others to navigate life with clarity and confidence.

🌌

Together, we explore the profound wisdom held within the mystical realm of these vast and infinite energetic archives.

The Records are said to be a multidimensional database of universal knowledge and information, held in a specific vibrational frequency. A cosmic home to the energetic ‘memories’ of the lifetimes’ of every living soul; past, present and future, across all dimensions.

🕊

AKASHA: one of the 5 Great Elements of Ayurveda (Pancha Maha Bhuta), with the western equivalent of this element being ETHER. Previously thought of as ‘just empty space’, we now know that this space is packed full of quantum particles and energy – and it is believed that this is where The Akashic Records is housed. (A modern day equivalent of this concept could be thought of as ‘The Collective Consciousness’.)

💮

In the show, we break down the essentials—what exactly are the Akashic Records? How do they work? And how accessing them offers a deeper insight into our past, present, and future. Luz shares her wisdom on how these energetic archives hold the key to understanding our soul’s lessons, patterns, and potential, and can offer guidance – especially when we start to question our life’s path and purpose.

😶‍🌫️

We also discuss how anyone can learn to ‘read’ their own records through intentional practices like meditation, journaling, and energy work. Luz explains the different energetic levels we move through when accessing the records and how aligning with our intuition can deepen this connection over time.

😇

Whether you're completely new to the concept of the Akashic Records or looking to further your own Spiritual journey with The Records, this episode is a beautiful blend of spiritual exploration and practical wisdom for everyday life.

Ayurveda – AYUR; Life, VEDA; Science/Knowledge (Sanskrit)

Literally translating as 'The Science of Life'.

This ancient Indian Holistic system of life and wellbeing, is said to have evolved at the time of creation of the 5 Great Elements; The PANCHA MAHA BHUTAS – Ether, Air, Fire, Water, Earth.

🪷

Written texts date back to over 5000 years old, but the knowledge is as old as creation itself, and was shared with us on Earth, by knowledgeable ones from Higher Realms; SHRUTHI.

🌌

Ayurveda is from a time when our Ancient Ancestors were more in tune with the important interplay of all sentient beings; ourselves, those around us, and living in alignment with our world, and environment.

Modern society seems to have lost this connection, and we are living out of harmony with nature, our planet and ourselves – we are denying our natural way of being.

🕊

Ayurveda gives us the tools to find ourselves, and restore our internal harmony, and find balance within; Mind, Body & Spirit, and in our environment.

🌳

By revealing our DOSHA (fault/imbalance), we can start to identify the dominant energy patterns within us (VIKRITHI), influenced by various factors we are exposed to, and of certain traits, behaviours, disease manifestation and symptoms. By using the 5 Ayurvedic management modalities of food, herbs, yoga, therapeutic massage, and lifestyle – we can start to incorporate ways to balance this dominant energy and return to our natural equilibrium (PRAKRITHI).

⚖️

Ancient civilisations were also aware of the importance of Gut and Digestive Health, drawing huge similarities with our recent discovery of the significance of the Gut Microbiome. A big focus of Ayurveda is ensuring optimal function of our AGNI – Digestive Fire, to maintain Vitality and Health, and production of OJAS – The Nectar of Life, and effectively eliminate toxins (AMA), to reduce disease states, all via effective and appropriate metabolism.

🔥

Ayurveda is ‘The OG’ Preventative and Lifestyle Medicine , promoting ownership of our own health, to support every stage of life and prepare for the next, with a focus on quality of life, health and vitality at each transition of our lifetimes, from conception to death.

🪺

This episode just skims the surface of the vast information that Ayurveda provides for health, wellbeing and daily living – there is so much more to know!

And all that I do know, is because of my brilliant Ayurveda teacher, Dr Deepa – she is a fountain of knowledge on Ayurveda and Yoga, and a lot more!

Do follow her @ayurvedadrdeepa, and check out her new podcast too, Ayurveda Yoga Wellbeing with Dr Deepa.

Mindset is everything! We often hear the term CEO Mindset, but as a Medic, this term hasn’t always resonated, and perhaps this holds true for your Life Role or profession too.

🩺

But it doesn’t matter what we actually do!

WE ARE ALL CEOs – The CEO of our own Life!

🤓

Having a ‘CEO Mindset’ is absolutely applicable to each and every single one of us, and starting to think like one can help us realise the value that only we bring to the world!

🌍

As individuals we have unique qualities and characteristics that nobody else does – this is our BRAND!

How we show up in life as our BRAND – is our BUSINESS!

By being the best version of ourselves in our Life – we are showcasing our ‘Brand’ in our ‘Business’.

💫

Having a CEO Mindset is about looking inwards and knowing our self worth, standing in our Truth and living as our most authentic selves, and being able to show up for ourselves, and others in our lives.

By doing the internal work, and being with ourselves – recognising our worth, and also the areas that may need some work too – we can become more self assured, and more confident in our ‘Brand’ of being ourselves.

😇

We start to become The Observer of how we are in our own Life, and how to handle situations better. Things don’t bother us as much, and this frees up headspace for other tasks and activities.

By connecting and being present with ourselves, we can start to make more meaningful and midful connections with others too.

🌌

This March is Mindset month for me – join me, and embrace your own CEO Mindset too!

We’ve all heard of the importance of ‘living in alignment’ and being connected to ‘Mind, Body & Spirit’ – but what exactly does this mean? How can ignoring these aspects have real effects to our physical body and our health?

In today’s episode, I am joined by Nicole Burska; Nutritional Therapist and founder of Cortaderia Wellness.

‘’…In her last year of studies, Nicole developed a list of health issues following a break up and lockdown. These symptoms ranged from gut issues, fatigue, burnout and depression. Not knowing what to do, she packed up and moved to the French Alps to volunteer as an Au Pair. Her symptoms disappeared within 3 months of moving and [she] managed to regain her energy with a new found wisdom and founded Cortaderia Wellness.

Nicole continues to guide individuals on nutrition & lifestyle whilst having particular interest in gut issues & mental health. She continues to research into psychobiology to learn the impact of stress has on disease development and the most effective solutions.”

In the show we chat about the importance of introspection, tuning into your inner voice, and living in Your Truth and with Purpose. Nicole refers to this as a mosaic – all the pieces of us need to come together to form a whole cohesive picture. If your daily life is not in alignment with your soul’s purpose, Diet and Lifestyle can only do so much.

The accumulation of our life’s traumas, ‘Big and Little T’ traumas, can also take its toll on our Spirit – and if not addressed, this can have tangible effects to our physical selves, manifesting as various symptoms and disease states within the body.

By reconnecting to our basic Spiritual Human needs, and resolving these internally held traumas and memories, together with nourishing our physical body; and allowing our cells to heal and repair with diet, lifestyle and supplements – we can start to resolve the hurt and pains, and live a live of purpose, in alignment with our true desires.

We also chat about ‘The Bigger Picture’ of life – trusting in divine timing, think of the hardships we face as events to highlight something important to us, to give us courage to make big changes. And how having faith in something bigger than us, is so important for our Spiritual Wellbeing too.

Nicole is undertaking further studies; The Psychology and Neuroscience of Mind-Body Interface MSc, and she is in the process of creating a course for Practitioners, and writing a book.

Health Professionals can sign up to the course Wait List via the website.

In this episode, I share some more of my Winter Wellness tips, and have a quick mid-Q1 check in!

February is upon us, and here in the UK, the evenings are getting lighter and brighter, and Mother Earth is slowly re-awakening and getting ready for Spring.

Now is the time for us to start to awaken ourselves too – hopefully you’ve had your own hibernation time for the last few weeks, with some introspection and R&R - and are now feeling ready to fully spring into action for 2025!

By being aware of the seasonal patterns and changes, and subtly changing our diet, lifestyle, exercise and wellness habits to reflect this, we can start to feel more aligned in ourselves and connected to the environment.

Be gentle with yourself, and continue to keep yourself nourished with all the wonderful seasonal winter veg. – because of our naturally higher metabolic rate in winter – our digestive system is better able to tolerate these denser winter foods. The sun is rising earlier now too, so use this time to ace your morning routine; rise with the sun, and flood your eyes with that beautiful morning light. Keep going with the restorative activities, and now start to include more movement and intensity to wake your body up even more. Self massage can also be a great way for physical stimulation to awaken and boost the body into action. Now is also a great time for an annual health check up and bloodwork.

Continue to prioritise your Self Care time – even if it is for 15 minutes each day. Just being with yourself and your thoughts is a vital part of our human existence. It allows us to build resilience and keep our cool in heated situations; the internal work will always have positive ripple effects to all those in our external environment too.

#JustBeMellow

Happy 2025! Welcome to my first episode of the year! We are already half way through the month, and hopefully back to our routines after the festive period.

I have always felt a disconnect with the fresh start of a new year on 1st January, when our Northern Hemisphere environment is getting deep into the grips of a cold, dark winter, and our local natural environment is in hibernation!

However – January is still a time to tap in to the collective energy of the New (calendar) Year, and plan for 2025.

Join me as I share my January Goal Setting and Spiritual Wellness rituals.

I share how January is my time for more ‘indoor and introspective activities’ – to reflect on all that has been achieved and overcome in past year, and how using the ‘Quarters’ (Q1/Q2/Q3/Q4), makes planning all your 2025 goals and dreams more achievable!

January is my time for self reflection, meditation, and The Big Tidy! Clearing physical and energetic space, for what No Longer Serves.

I also talk about how I like to take guidance from a Psychic every New Year, to help map out my Spiritual Roadmap, with practical and actionable practices and meditations, to help me manifest and bring to fruition all of my dreams and hopes for the year.

I’d love to hear how you celebrate the New Year – perhaps it is on a completely different day, or even in Springtime. Do share if you gave any of my Goal Setting tasks a go!

-"Living with T1DM, but still living!"- Beth Edwards

💪🏽

Beth herself was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes, at the age of just 9 years old.

👨‍👩‍👧

Following on from her own diagnosis of T1DM, she shares with us her journey from initial diagnosis and transition from paediatric to adult care, and how the responsibility of managing the condition, and constant need for self awareness, influenced her childhood and adult life.

🤹🏼‍♀️

We also talk about the symptoms she experienced, emotional and physical, her pregnancy journey, and the daily challenges she faces, but how she strives, and continues to live a full life, building on all her knowledge and experience.

🤰🏼

We discuss some of the latest research, epigenetics, potential viral and other triggers for T1DM, and the link with common autoimmune conditions, such as Hashimoto's and Coeliac Disease. We talk about the latest technology in Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM), insulin dosing, and some basics of diet and lifestyle for T1DM management.

👩🏻‍⚕️🧪

Beth also works for a T1DM Advocacy group, specifically raising awareness regarding language used in Type 1 Diabetes care, and highlights this with an important NHS Policy Document - Language Matters in Diabetes. Beth herself recognised the importance of language used when caring for those with T1DM, during her own pregnancy journey, which she also shares with us.

A November special to mark Men's Health Awareness Month, I am joined by -Fiongal Greenlaw-Meek, founder of The Wellness Foundry - my first male guest on the show!

We chat all things Energy Medicine and Spirituality - and how dis-harmony of our Spirit can lead to very physical symptoms of the body, and emotional unrest.

For true health, Mind, Body and Spirit must be at peace and in harmony. The Wellness Foundry recognises this, and is a space where spiritual wellness is prioritised, with the support of the ancient Divination Arts; 'Modern Mysticism for Modern Times'.

Fiongal shares his own spiritual awakening, where he experienced troublesome physical symptoms, with no real medical explanation. Something which he also commonly sees in his own clients.

This led him on his own journey of self discovery to manage his symptoms by addressing his Spiritual wellness, which coincided with the development of his psychic abilities and connection to Spirit.

Fiongal shares ways we can protect our own energy, taking care to not pick up on those emotions and heavy energies around us - especially those which are not ours, and do not serve us.

And also how we can connect with Spirit ourselves; whether this is through meditation, prayer, requesting signs from The Universe, or just being aware of, and trusting our own intuition and 'inner voice' - we all have one!
