For this interview, I am talking with Lauren Cuvala, certified Ayurvedic Health Advisor, and a certified Energy Medicine Yoga® Teacher. She has a passion for connecting people to nature and does so through  teaching workshops, yoga and guided hiking. Our conversation touches on Ayurveda as an ancient lifestyle that opposes many of the high-protein, cold food and drink trends, and go-go-go tendencies of our Western society. We talk about how each of us has a combination of air, water, space, fire, and earth in our constitutions and what that means for keeping us each uniquely in balance via our own lifestyle choices. And we also talk about Lauren’s journey from corporate America to the path that she is on now that honors her passions with a slower pace, nature-based way of life. Her local Vibrant Living inspirations include:

• Karen Sprute-Francovich, Garden Street Yoga
• Sarah and Jake Digre, Hayden Yoga and Massage
• Sarah Lynch, North Idaho Pride Alliance

For this  interview, I am talking with Michelle Piller of Mystic Maps, Astrology for a New Earth. I was introduced to Michelle by a mutual friend, Stacia of episode #46. I’ve never really dove into understanding astrology beyond reading my monthly Virgo horoscope with a grain of salt, yet something drew me to work with Michelle. I was in awe of the astrological coaching sessions that we had from the way she seemed to have a grasp of who I really am, how I function in the world, + how the recent + future astrological happenings would affect me. 

In this conversation, you’ll get to hear Michelle’s story from working in theatre to stepping into her love + calling for astrology. And she explains astrology on the level of quantum physics + literally living in frequencies beyond the ones of the daily world, living in a way that honors + aligns with YOUR celestial fingerprint from what was happening in the Universe when + where you were born. Yes, I know, it really is mind-blowing, yet Michelle so beautifully describes the journey to having our own agency to live fully as ourselves + without limitations - as she puts it - to embody the highest vision for ourselves + build a new Earth. 

Her Vibrant Living inspiration includes Oracle Girl, oraclegirl.org.

I started outlining this message thinking that I was going to deep dive into my lessons learned in 2023, but over the last few weeks as I've been processing what those were, I am catching myself in fascination of the many ways that I could spin my own story about how last year went: Was I the overzealous entrepreneur who burned out mid-year? NO. Was I the martyred mother who no longer had time for herself? NO. Was I the victim of critical feedback that knocked me off course? NO. ...yes, I tried all of these stories on for size at various points last year, but as you can tell, none of them have a great vibe or associated feelings that I want to choose. And guess what? I choose great vibes for my life!! I choose to feel empowered, purposeful, connected, + yet, free! 

I've landed on the story that last year was an epic transition year more fully into my dream life!!

So for now, I just invite you to reflect back on the last year -- how are you writing the 2023 chapter of your book? Is it a tale that you want to use to define the past 12 months of your life? Does it honor who you are + what waves you were riding? And maybe it does. Whether low or high vibe, as long as it feels true + kind to you as the magical human you are on your life dance! From here, take those reflections + ponder...bet yet, vision, breathe love into the stories you are excited to write in 2024: What is weighing on your body? What is tickling at your heart? What is itching at your psyche?
