Wellness As A Way of Life for Women Building the Future

This week on Energetically You we talk about How to Have Magnetic Energy.

 

I break down the 4 major layers we can consider from a wellness and mindset perspective so that we feel complete confidence in our own skin and in turn have magnetic energy.

 

How to start.

Why it is important to work on these things gradually and not look for quick fixes.

My experience shedding layers, managing others and adding some new potent layers to feel more magnetic energy.

If you are ready.

We start next week.

ALIGN + SHINE: embodiment: https://www.meganswanwellness.com/alignshine

It’s ⅓ soul sister community group coaching calls

      ⅓ private coaching so we can dig deep to uncover what is holding you back from feeling limitless + powerful

This is your invitation to start feeling more magnetic energy + confidence in your own skin.

“I was slightly addicted to technology and slightly addicted to winning, and to doing my own thing, to competing, to comparing and all that stuff, and eventually I ended up burning out.”

 

“People are aligning their life values with their work values and creating what I call a high flow living and working situation, and that’s their way out of burnout.”

She believes that when you focus on well-being, resilience, and purpose you can tap into higher creativity, productivity, and optimal performance. 

The topics we touched on:

 

1. What does it mean to Unhustle?
2. Why is embodiment important to tapping into our core values?
3. Why do we need to reverse engineer our lives to live life on our terms?
4. What are the current trends among entrepreneurs and top companies?
5. The problem with solving everything with more tech.
6. What is soul living vs. ego living?
7. The powerful exercise she uses with clients to help them clarify their values and get back into alignment.

“If we are only able to channel our minds when things are slow, calm, and relaxed then I’m not sure those practices are actually preparing us for what is going to happen in our lives.”

Kathryn Bruni-Young is an expert on functional movement and building mindful strength.  She is the founder of Mindful Strength, the host of the Mindful Strength Podcast, and an international yoga & movement teacher. Kathryn's work helps everyday people build strength and confidence from home with online classes and trainings. She also provides education for yoga teachers and clinicians who want to bring more strength to their classes and clients.  She tells us about her journey to where she is today and how she is helping people build strength in a way so they can go out in the world and feel like a more capable and resilient human.

 

The topics we touched on:

1. How mindful strength training builds confidence.
2. Why it is important to have a well rounded yoga practice.
3. What does it mean to do something mindfully and how that term is often misunderstood.
4. What is the important difference between having “a practice” vs. just working out.
5. How the yoga community  is adapting to be more inclusive,  diverse and balanced in terms of what is being considered a valuable part of a well rounded class. 

 

Quotes

“We serve people from age 25 to 75, it is a very diverse age group.”

“A movement practice that is going to help them feel stronger but it it’s not a fitness-y, aggressive, fast-paced feel.”

“We have been misunderstanding what mindful even means...just like life, it is not always slow, gentle, calm and relaxed.”

“[Most people] don’t really understand how adaptive their bodies really are, and how strong and resilient they can actually become with some really good progressive training.”

“A lot of the people I work with very hesitant to go to the gym, or go to fitness class or take up strength training because all they see is this this fitness version that only cares about how lean your are, or how heavy the weights are you can lift or what you look like and they don’t see that it can work for them.”

“Each chakra is a key to abundance.”

I had the joy of chatting with Aleya Harris.  She knows from experience after 10 years experience that creating balance in business and life is critical to enjoying your journey to success. Aleya looks at problems from a holistic perspective and combines her NES Health Practitioner and StoryBrand Guide Certifications to work simultaneously on improving the wellness of her clients’ mindset, energy fields, and business strategy.

3. The major money mindset blocks she encounters with her clients.

5. How some “salty drops” might just change your life.

Quotes

“Business happens from the inside out.”

 

“One of the perks of entrepreneurship is that you get to cultivate the path you want, but in order to do that you have to show up as your whole self everyday.”

 

“I’m fully out of the ‘woo’ closet, I don’t even know where the door is anymore.”

 

“If you are not doing the work to clear your mindset that are active... then it doesn’t really matter how many mantras you do.”

 

“A lot of it goes back to worthiness for women, but the source of it is usually unique.”

Thank you for listening!

“There are many ways to do things in life, if we would only be open, and have the awe and wonder of a child…”

You don’t want to miss an opportunity to listen to the divine Julie Piatt aka SriMati.  I personally can never get enough of her musings and wisdom.  She talked about how we can bring more spirituality into our everyday experience and why having the experience of a shift in your energy is the most impactful way to shift your life. I love how she speaks of externalizing, not aging. 

The topics we touched on:

1. What does she mean when she says her spiritual community Water Tiger is “a way to no way.”
2. Why experiential  techniques to spiritual development might be more important than philosophy.
3. Why it is our directive to fully know ourselves.
4. Why you can’t experience enlightenment if you read it in a book. 
5. Her perspective on forgiveness.
6. Why community, moving forward is going to be our greatest asset.

 

Quotes

“I just had this overwhelming direction that I needed to not go on [social media] for a year.”

“It had to be useful.  It had to be beautiful.  It had to be applicable to anyone no matter what their orientation is.  It had to have a deep meaning.”

“What we truly need to transform from the inside out are techniques, they are techniques that are portals to experience, and when you experience these energies, it shifts your entire life.”

“There is nothing more creatively inspiring than a being that knows itself.”

“SriMu for me is a mission of global awakening, I discovered that food is a very sacred transmission of activation, it is in fact a ritual experience that we engage in all the time.”

 

Thank you for listening!

“Can you just give yourself just three days to let your body crave what it is designed to crave.”

“I know it’s working when on the 10th day they come in and say, “Doc, everyone is commenting on my skin,” and I know we have reset their microbiome - that’s why I say it’s cheek to cheek,”

“It’s not about saying I’ll never have that again, it’s about intuitively saying I know that it's not amazing for me, my body doesn’t do well with it, but I’m still going to enjoy it once in a while.”

“Disease is the number one selling product of all time!”

“Just check your ‘soil’ [aka your microbiome].”

“The great thing that I have seen in the last 10 years is that the medical doctors that the  patients would go to weren't receptive and now they are referring patients and also doing our programs themselves.”

In this week’s episode of Energetically You, I had the pleasure of interviewing Megan Sweet, an expert in leading community-driven education transformation in high-need schools and districts. With more than 25 years of experience in education, and 15 years directly leading changes in schools, districts, and statewide in California, she  knows that education is the most important lever we have for creating a more equitable society.   She also knows that the best way to realize true change is by supporting and empowering individuals to lead the changes they envision for their school communities.

Quotes

“For me as a change leader, I saw we didn’t have the tools we needed to manage the overload.”

 

“I started integrating mindfulness practices into my own life, I was already doing it, but I started bringing it into my workday.”

 

“I noticed that just by doing these practices myself that my interaction with others shifted.”

 

“I demystify mindfulness for educators...it’s just an invitation, but I also have all the science to back it up.”

 

“For me as a single Mom, self-care can look like taking a few extra minutes in the bathroom, or it could be not looking at my phone at the stop lights anymore.”
