Wildfire & Flowers

Life has it's ups and downs, and within those down's, lies navigating the sensation disappointment that one feels towards themselves, or externally!  Whether it's the disappointment felt towards a person, yourself, a career goal, a lifestyle... the feeling is all too real.

We hear you, we see you.

Disappointment all relay's to the expectation that one has toward the concept.  V & P explore their journey with their awareness when it comes to the musky waters of managing expectations, control, cycles and attachment.  Also noted in this episode is the way the mother archetype can interplay in disappointment.   

Bless, release, and let love flow through you.

New week, New episode & New intro, OH MY!!!

After a 3 week hiatus, P & V are back after celebrating the one year anniversary of Wildfire and Flowers. It has been a time of reflection for how incredible this year has been for us as podcast co-hostesses and just as human beings in general! In this week’s episode, we encourage you to take the time to reflect, to celebrate your wins, to maintain a state of gratitude, and to loudly call in your desires so that they come into fruition. You are a powerful creator, and this episode is here to reflect that embodied mindset incase it slipped away for a moment.

Lust.  One of the Seven Deadly Sins.  A sensation we have experienced at some point in our lives to an extent.  Is this a good thing?  How does it differ from admiration, desire, or love.  And to lust or fall for a person without even fully knowing them.. is this an ethical and respectful way of being?  P & V discuss the ins and outs of their relationship to lust and some thought provoking insights.  This episode also talks about how when we admire someone or see a beautiful trait in another, we have the capacity to view that in another because we have it in ourselves.

How often do you step back to integrate, to reflect, to be in solitude and allow your inner knowing to flourish?

It can be so beautiful to have a moment alone, but in this day and age with the amounts of distractions, busyness and noise polution, we don't often gift ourselves this time.  And in the moments that we do, memories and undesirable sensations can come up, so it can be a bit scary.  Your awareness when in a state of solitude is all about you, it’s enjoying your own company - you are your longest relationship, you will live with yourself, no matter where you go, no matter where you are, you still have you!  In this episode, P & V discuss the intentionality of how you spend time with yourself, and it's sacred nature.  The co-hostesses share some tips on how to ease into spending time alone, shared experiences, and reminders along the way of how to balance community time and alone time.

Remember, it’s a privilege to GET to spend time with you.

Here on Wildfire & Flowers, we talk about how sensations lead to emotions which lead to thoughts and then create an action.  But let's take a step back here - the moment we feel a sensation, an emotional response is evoked, but we CHOOSE to give the emotion a meaning.  That is very much a huge part of the human experience whether it be a positive or not so positive elicited response.  The way external situations take up space in certain areas of the body is absolutely fascinating and the highlighted topic in this week's episode.  When energy is stored in the body, we also have the capability of moving to different areas of the body and out of the body.  This is similar to moving through, to, or out of a situation in the real world, directionally or as a goal; and the key to that is... intentionality!  

Also covered in episode 23 is the power of language, doing things you love with like minded souls, letting go of the past, tantric energy, cord cutting rituals and purple & gold mushrooms.

Here in the Wildfire & Flowers community, we love to talk about being your most authentic self.  When it comes to the various roles you play in your life and take into consideration the multifaceted individual you are, and all the layers of emotions and stories that you carry, how is it possible to show up authentically the same way in every scenario you find yourself in?  The underlying theme here is attuning to your values and the awareness of how you want to show up in the world.  On the flip side of showing up, the idea of being seen can be an act of bravery and vulnerability in and of itself as we all seek acceptance.  In this episode, P & V discuss their personal journeys of showing up and being seen in the real world, through social media and the abundance of awareness lightbulbs that have come along the way.

Do you notice the way we sometimes easily doubt ourselves and seek external validation? What is the healthy balance of using your own wisdom, knowledge and intuition verses seeking assurance from friends, family or even the internet? This is a really juicy topic that P & V look to explore in episode 19. Owning your Sovereignty and Reclaiming your truth are words heavily used in the spiritual community, and they have great importance and your co-hostesses share their thoughts about. In this episode, the concept of exercising your self awareness muscle, looking at what is the norm vs. what is normal, and the different lenses of life to reclaim your sovereignty are explored! You can also find an incredible self coaching tool to help you in your daily practice.
