In this episode, we delve into the sacred and often overlooked center of our being – the womb. Irrespective of our differences, our lives share a common origin in the womb.
 
Millennia ago, people revered the womb as a sacred place, the source of life, creation, and infinite possibilities. However, for many, the connection to this powerful center has been severed, leaving it wounded and forgotten.

In this episode, we dive into the following:

• Explore the profound connection between our womb, yoni, and the first and second chakras – the root and sacral chakras. 
• Discover the significance of the root chakra, situated at the base of the spine, providing stability and grounding. 
• Uncover the interconnectedness of foundational chakras with higher chakras, especially the throat and heart.
• Understand that every human has a connection to these chakras. 
• Delve into the concept of the womb as the seat of Kundali Shakti, the serpent power in Sanskrit.
• Discover simple yet powerful techniques to connect with your womb, including breathwork.

Let's decode your pregnancy cravings so you can determine what your body REALLY wants. There are many different cultural beliefs surrounding cravings. The truth is that food is a source of nutrition but it can also be a source of comfort and a way to restore balance in our bodies. Food can be a way that we deal with difficult feelings and soothe our emotions.

In this episode, we are going to decode each craving based on five key flavors; bitter, salty, spicy/pungent, sour, and sweet. These five flavors define organ relationships which are impacted by how we store our emotions in our body. This principle is based on traditional Chinese medicine and has been practiced for centuries.
