You-est You®: Where Intuition, Spirituality & Higher Consciousness Meet Real Life

Meet Lynne McTaggart

For more than 20 years, Lynne McTaggart, an internationally bestselling and award-winning author and journalist, has been examining the bridge between frontier science and spirituality. Lynne is mainly known for the quality of her narrative non-fiction and the depth of her research, her inspirational speaking style, and her uncompromising role as a New Thought leader and spiritual change agent. Over the years, Lynne McTaggart has been variously called a 'metaphysical rock star', 'the Madonna of the Quantum World,' 'the Malcolm Gladwell of the New Science', and even 'The Dalai Mama.' She's consistently voted one of the world's top 100 spiritual leaders for her groundbreaking work with consciousness and the power of thoughts. To understand more about the mechanisms behind the healing power of thoughts, Lynne has organized rigorous scientific studies called Intention Experiments, working with scientists at prestigious universities around the world. Lynne has been particularly interested in the power of group intention and its "mirror effect," transforming recipients and reflecting back on the senders. As co-founder and editorial director of the health magazine, What Doctors Don't Tell You, now published in 15 languages worldwide, and Get Well, the international holistic health expo, Lynne is also a tirelessly campaigns for consumer rights in health care. Her two books, The Intention Experiment and The Power of Eight can be fond on Amazon.

If you'd like to have your mind 'glowing' and tap into what's possible within your own body and mind for greater healing, past, present, and future, then this conversation is a must-listen. Lynne McTaggart is one of the leading researchers and gifted speakers to explain the greater depths of quantum physics, quantum healing, and time. This means we have the powerful ability as humans to change our well-being and destiny.

There were so many nuggets of wisdom, and I'd highly recommend listening to this episode from start to finish. Here is a short recap to give you a sense of the breadth and depth of what Lynne covered. As always, let me know your thoughts in the You-est You® Podcast Community on Facebook and take whatever resonates, and leave the rest.

Meditation vs. Intentions

If you haven't yet read Lynne's two books: The Power of Eight and The Intention Experiment, get thee to Amazon and order both STAT. They will glow your mind! I asked Lynne about the difference between meditation and intentions because they can seem similar yet have profound different results. Much of Lynne's work is around the hidden and surprising superpower of using the power of intentions for a specific desired outcome for greater healing and manifestation. In sum, meditation increases your alpha and delta brain waves. Meditation is typically a practice where you use a mantra or sit in silence. On the other hand, intentions activate the parietal lobe, and all brain waves are lowered. The right frontal lobe, the area where worry and doubt are triggered, also goes down when sending an intention. The other amazing thing about sending intentions is that this altruistic act touches both the sender and receiver, and a greater ecstatic sense of oneness occurs. Lynne shares that with sending intentions, you must focus on a thought and outcome that is highly specific. A great way to get a specific intention is to use the 5 W's, used in journalistic writing; ask yourself 'Who, what, where, when, why?'

Our Cells Communicate Through Frequencies

The fantastic thing to note is that we all have the most powerful healer inside of us. We've been living by the scientific story we've been told, an older Newtonian vision where separate things generate ideas in time and space. Over the past 100+ years, we've seen through the newer science of Quantum Physics that we're all interconnected through energy systems, otherwise known as the zero-point field. Our thoughts are a transmitter, and our cells communicate through frequencies. Our brain is literally like a TV station transducing. We're either giving or receiving light all the time and have the ability to focus our thoughts in a way that can move and change matter.

Quantum Healing

We can send intentions back to heal something in our past, and we can also do this in the future. In part, it's understanding that time is not as we think and that it is not linear. You can send thoughts to make people better (including yourself), and Lynne McTaggart shows this scientifically in many of her books, but especially in The Intention Experiment and The Power of Eight. Understanding your own inner power can help you take back your power to heal from within. In this way, Lynne invites us all to be spiritual activists in which we can become more connected to our own natural inner healing powers and that of our society.

The Power of Altruism

If you are interested in being part of a Power of Eight group, feel free to check out Lynne's website to learn more about her groups and events. I have been part of my own PO8 group (in short), and it is nothing short of miraculous. To learn more about this and her upcoming retreat in England, go to: lynnemctaggart.com/events

Here's to your accessing all of your You-est You®, my friend!

Final Thoughts

Lynne McTaggart enlilghtens us with how with the power of intentions we can heal both others and ourselves. That time and distance are not barriers to the healing intentions once set in motion. If you haven't picked up her books The Intention Experiment or The Power of Eight be sure to check them out,

Meet Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor

Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor is back again on the You-est You podcast! Dr. Jill is a Harvard-trained and published neuroanatomist. In 1996 she experienced a severe hemorrhage in the left hemisphere of her brain, causing her to lose the ability to walk, talk, read, write, or recall any of her life. Her memoir, My Stroke of Insight, documenting her experience with stroke and eight-year recovery, spent 63 weeks on the New York Times non-fiction bestseller list and is still routinely the #1 book about stroke on Amazon. Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor is a dynamic teacher and public speaker who loves educating all age groups, academic levels, as well as corporations about the beauty of our human brain and its ability to recover from trauma. In 2008 she gave the first TED talk that ever went viral on the Internet, which now has well over 26 million views. Also, in 2008, Dr. Taylor was chosen as one of Time magazine's "100 Most Influential People in the World" and was the premiere guest on Oprah Winfrey's "Soul Series" webcast. Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor is also the author of the most recent bestselling book, Whole Brain Living.

I invited Dr. Jill back on to my podcast to talk about how we can learn to self-soothe ourselves during such a stressful time that has increased the amount of anxiety and fear in so many people's lives. This conversation will help you learn how to talk to the scientific four parts of your brain (this is an excellent refresh if you want to reconnect with your four characters) and start unifying all of your characters through a brain huddle.

The Four Characters

The brain has two hemispheres; the left and the right. The right hemisphere is all about being here, right now. It's about being experiential in the present moment. Character 4 is the thinking part of the brain that is about consciousness and that feeling of being grateful to be alive. Character 3 is the emotional part of the right brain that is creative, innovative, open, and will ask, 'What does that feel like?' The part that is feeling the stress of the world and needing the self-soothing. The left hemisphere is about the past, present and the future and is where we individuate and form a sense of being an individual. Character 2 is about your emotions in your left brain and Character 1 is the thinking part of the left brain that will look for structure and organization, and will ask 'how am I a functional human being in the world? How can I self-soothe and take the weight off my shoulders?

Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor and I shared the names of our 4 Characters. Share in the You-est You Podcast Community on Facebook your names!

Emotions are really just energy in motion; emotion is energy running on a circuit that can feel like rage, sadness, joy, elation, etc. Think of emotions as energy flowing through the cells in our brain and body.

The Brain Huddle

Think of your four characters who are on the same team and here to connect about your next play in life. The best way to build your muscle of leaning on a brain huddle is to start doing this 20x's day. In the Brain Huddle, BRAIN stands for Breath, Recognize, Appreciate, Inquire, Navigate. Here's a deeper dive into what this means:

Breath - Be present in the moment with your breath

Recognize- Notice who called the huddle (which character)

Appreciate - Appreciate all four of your characters and realize they are all on the same team

Inquire - Ask, who wants the mic? Ask your four characters who wants to talk, and allow for all four to share. You don't need to give your power away.

Navigate - Use this process to navigate moment to moment

How to Self-Soothe Yourself

Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor reminds us to call in your four characters for a brain huddle and give yourself time, space, and grace to connect with which character wants to share. Often it is your sweet Character 2 who has emotions to share. Know this is the process that helps you self-soothe. That will bring you a sense of calm during the storm of the past several years. Allow yourself the space to feel all emotions and surround your character with love and compassion.

My 3 favorite quotes from this episode: "We're feeling creatures who think! Not the other way around.", "Our past pain isn't here to be a lifestyle. It's here so you can learn, grow and move on." and "The quality of your dealing with your emotions will affect the quality of your thinking."

And, a total mind-blown moment: "We've been alive when our mothers were in our grandmother's 5th week of gestation."

Final Thoughts

Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor enlightens us with the process of The Brain Huddle to teach us how to self-soothe during these tumultuous times. The pandemic has brought in so many emotions, and Dr. Jill helps us understand how to better navigate them.

Meet Rosie Acosta

Rosie Acosta has studied yoga and mindfulness for over 20 years and taught for over a decade. She hosts a weekly conversational wellness podcast, Radically Loved. Rosie has traveled all over the world, leading workshops, retreats, and yoga teacher trainings. She's been featured in Yoga Journal, Well + Good, Forbes, and The New York Post. She lives in Los Angeles. YOU ARE RADICALLY LOVED is her first book.

Rosie Acosta is such a powerful example of what's possible when you make up your mind to change your life, regardless of circumstances. After being arrested for trying to steal a police car in her teens, she realized the direction she was headed was not one of happiness, contentment, or any kind of joy. Unlike many brown and black teens who end up staying in the system, she realized she had to get out. What ensued was both courageous and miraculous. A friend of Rosie's mother recommended meditation as a way to cope with stress and anxiety. She figured she'd give it a try and started to notice internal changes for the better. That's when Rosie realized she had to excommunicate herself from her friends --- childhood friends she had grown up with on the streets in LA when gangs were running rampant.

Getting Out Of Trouble and Chaos

Rosie started to get herself in planned detention to go to the library to read books like 'The Art of Happiness by the Dalai Lama and other inspiring works that would help begin the process of shifting her inner beliefs and outer world. She found the courage to leave friends who had been like family so that she could begin to find out who she really is and be the creative, loving, kind person she dreamt of being. Through meditation, yoga, and readings by Paramahansa Yogananda, started small cracks of change that led to an entirely new life direction.

The Power of Compassion

Today, Rosie Acosta speaks to high schools all over the US about how they have the autonomy, agency, and self-guidance to trust in themself and greater support. She teaches them about being Radically Loved and the practices that can change your life. The root of loving change is compassion for yourself and others.

Radically Loved, Defined

Radically Loved is about stepping into powerful innate energy. Using this energy as a conduit, you realize that it is an ever-flowing love, eternal, never-ending guidance of love. In a difficult moment, the most radical act of love is to be fully present with where you are, befriending yourself and your feelings. It's about giving yourself the nourishment you need and being kind to yourself. This is something to practice daily, and the more you can cultivate powerful compassion for yourself, the more you can do this with others.

Final Thoughts

We ended with an awesome heart flare...Rosie reminds you to stay encouraged, keep writing, doing the things you feel called to do even if others might not seem to pay attention. Someone out there needs your message, to be radically loved, just like she did when she was given a suggestion to try meditation. Keep going, and don't get discouraged!

Meet Mary Morrissey

Mary Morrissey has made it her mission to empower people to create and live a life they love. For over 50 years, Mary has studied the art and science of transforming dreams into results. Mary is the founder of the Brave Thinking Institute, the world's premier provider of transformational training and coaching. Through life-changing books, events, and programs, Mary has helped millions of people tap into the power within them to achieve new levels of success and experience a deeper sense of meaning and purpose. Mary holds a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology and an honorary Doctorate in Humane Letters. She has addressed the United Nations three times, co-convened three-week-long meetings with His Holiness The Dalai Lama, and met with President Nelson Mandela in South Africa. She has written two best-selling books, No Less Than Greatness and Building Your Field of Dreams, which became a PBS special. In October 2022, Mary Morrissey will release her newest book, Brave Thinking: Unlocking the Hidden Code for Overcoming Life's Challenges and Achieving Your Greatest Dreams. Today, Mary is focused on a bold dream: 1 Billion Dreams Achieved around the world. She is with us today because the dream begins with YOU! Mary is gifting a free guided meditation that will unlock the energy of the universe that lives inside of you –gently guiding you, deliberately building your dreams from a place of ease and bliss. The mediation is a $16 value. Go to: BTI.com/youest

Your Dreams Count

Mary's origin story will blow you away. I don't want to give it all away, but it's clear that she walks her walk and has lived the results of what she teaches. Before getting into the personal development field, Mary started as a non-denominational minister. I loved hearing how Mary has used the principles of what she's been teaching for 50 years to improve her own life, and that of thousands across the globe. Everything we discussed was about how to upgrade and change your beliefs to match building your dreams-all the ones that live inside of you. Mary has led hundreds of events and programs to help others actualize their dream. Her words of encouragement are worth tuning into if you hold the desire of building your dream. She said, "The real gift of having a dream is not just realizing it, but that who you become in the process."

Change the Channel

Mary Morrissey shared that if you don't love the results in your life, just like changing a channel on your TV, you need to change the frequency of your thoughts and vibration. We are all made up of a sea of energy. Here are a few ways to do this:

1. Look at your current life and ask yourself, 'What am I in love with now?' Notice this and reverse engineer what you love to make room to add more of this elsewhere.
2. Speak in the name of love. Life is an ever-seeking energy expressed through us. Connect to the energy of love through your words and speaking.
3. You can be, do or have anything. You just have to get in harmony with it. If you are in a state of self-loathing, look at it as a wiring problem and notice what you're noticing. You are not your thoughts
4. Care more about helping people and be willing to do things afraid.

Three Powerful Words to Change Your Subconscious

We also discussed the three most powerful words you can say to yourself regarding changing the frequency of your thoughts and overcoming limiting beliefs and stories as they relate to your past and keeping you stuck. When you find yourself saying something like, "I've never been able to change that habit", for example, try adding these three words afterward: up until now. This will help give your subconscious a new command when up against those lingering negative beliefs.

Final Thoughts

Mary Morrissey reminds us that building your dream is entirely possible when you put your mind to it. You first need to change the frequency of your thoughts to overcome the beliefs and stories that hold you back. Make sure to download her free meditation to get you started on building your dream today.

Hello brave dreamers! I really hope that this special 300th episode celebration will illuminate and remind you of the sacred gifts already within you, ready to be expressed. I brought in my dear friend, Rev. Frances Fayden, podcast host, author, and interfaith minister, to have a deeply honest and raw conversation about what it means to step into a greater mission of service, leadership, and influence. While my journey started with a commitment of doing one weekly episode for a year, I stayed the course because of the blessing to interview leading experts and prominent leaders who share their hearts, experience, lessons learned, and wisdom. It has been a gift to host this show, and I hope and pray that whatever episodes you've listened to have added expansion, upliftment, and greater possibility in your own life.

To Compare Is To Despair

One of my greatest lessons has been to stop comparing myself to others and taking others off the pedestal, no matter how well known they might be. Pedestals are dangerous as they create a 'better than' mentality, and as you know with the You-est You concept, no one is better than another. Instead, some have planted their seeds earlier or at different times than you, and often we're seeing the finished byproduct that might have been planted years ago. Additionally, in interviewing a wide range of spiritual leaders and influencers, I've been reminded that the goal is not to be anyone else's version of your You-est You. Yet, rather it's to get inspired and moved by another's story, journey, and lessons learned to tap more deeply into your own authenticity. Pedestals don't belong in this journey of deeper self-exploration and self-compassion. I'm hoping that as you tune in, what's being reflected back to you is what's possible when you follow your greater vision and dream. That's why I think of you (and myself) as brave dreamers. It takes tremendous courage to express and become your You-est You. I'm grateful you're here and would love to hear how you're taking other people off pedestals so that you can see your own divinity staring right back in your very eyes. Rather than compare, get inspired and know whatever you're hearing is an example of what's possible.

Learning To Expand Your Visibility

One of my biggest lessons over the 300 episodes I've recorded has been to let go of the fear of judgments, of what others might say about me, and about my own inner judgments, especially given so many episodes have treaded into territory that I might have shied away from in the past. I'm learning that the most important thing you can do is stay true and authentic to your own truth. To come from a place of unconditional compassion and heart and trust that it's safe to be more visible and share my thoughts. We naturally crave connection at a deep level, which is most potent when being vulnerable and willing to be seen. I share this with those who might struggle with visibility or fear of being seen in a larger way. If you know in your heart you're up to big things and here to be a change-maker, it's imperative to start shifting the way you see your own visibility. Ways to do that are through community, finding a great mentor, coach, or friend who is on a similar path and can hold you accountable to your bigger dream. That's the first secret on how to become an influencer.

Impact Mentorship Program

After two years of dreaming up how to make a bigger impact with entrepreneurial women who want to birth their vision, I have finally decided to put together the Impact Mentorship Program. It's an intimate group I will be mentoring that will help others who want to write that book, give a TEDx talk or start a podcast. I'll be sharing my lessons learned, wisdom, and support to guide heart-led women looking to shine brighter and get on the world stage so they can become influences as well. For more information about applying, go to juliereisler.com/you-me.

Final Thoughts

Learning how to become an influencer is partly seeing yourself through a lens of love and being able to use what you once may have seen as weaknesses as strengths. Another is feeling the fear and doing it anyway. To commit and show up no matter how scared you are or how few people you think are there for you, because if your message is being heard by one person, know that it will only grow from there.

Meet Jacob Cooper

Jacob Cooper is a Clinical Social Worker, Certified Reiki Master, and Certified Hypnotherapist specializing in Past Life Regression Therapy; he works privately with clients through online services. Inspired by his near-death experience and transformative encounters, he facilitates spiritual awareness and empowerment through life-changing seminars. Currently, he resides and practices in Long Island, NY. He is the author of "Life After Breath" published by Waterside Productions. Find out more about Jacob at jacoblcooper.com

Life After Breath

The interview with Jacob Cooper was such a powerful and profound look into a Near Death Experience, aka NDE, and how these experiences are forever life-changing. Jacob shared his NDE when he was three years old and how it left him awake to the potentiality of humanity and breadth and depth of the Divine. Jacob was diagnosed with Pertussis at the age of three. Without realizing the severity of such a diagnosis, his parents let him go to the park to play. On a jungle gym ladder, he started to cough and couldn't breathe. Without enough oxygen, he remembers leaving his body and seeing that his body wasn't fully working. In this incredibly enigmatic experience, he saw his spirit guides on both sides of him and shared that there are no words to describe them. He then saw an endless sea of thousands of angels. They had a uniform look, and he felt enormous unconditional love from them. In Jacob Cooper's words, "It felt like a grand reunion where he could feel all is well and all is divine love". With their help, he survived his near-death experience, truly giving him life after breath.

A Secret Worth Sharing

Jacob Cooper spent 20 years not telling a soul about his experience, both out of sacred reverence for what happened and knowing it would raise eyebrows and create uncomfortable questioning. His near-death experience left him with an enormous gift still with him; the remembrance that heaven is right here and that love is the ultimate collateral. He has helped many build trust with the light that lives inside us and teaches us how to connect to this eternal knowing. The key to expanding your sense of the divine is through raising your consciousness. Jacob Cooper shares some of the ways to raise consciousness:

1. To expand and transform, you have to be vulnerable to lose yourself.
2. Meditation and quieting the mind are crucial. It's in the still of the mind that you can access truth and get in touch with your infinite nature.
3. You've got to match your light with the light on the other side; which is an all-loving unconditional reverence and love

Jacob reminds us not to be defined by our story but to define it ourselves. This is the gift of free will and being human. And, by tuning into the GPS of your soul, you will never be misled.

Final Thoughts

Jacob Cooper's life after breath experience gave him the eternal knowledge that we can easily align ourselves with heaven, even here on earth. That it doesn't take a near-death experience to connect and feel the joy that is heaven or our authentic infinite nature. We only need to practice raising our consciousness and connecting with what is readily available.

Meet Dr. Alex Golden & Megan Blacksmith

Dr. Alex Golden (M.D.) and Megan Blacksmith (Health Coach & Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner and graduate of Chris Kresser's ADAPT Practitioner training) of Zesty Ginger help women optimize brain function and hormone health by teaching women to use the power of their thoughts and beliefs as well as the phases of their menstrual cycles to their advantage. The natural ebb and flow that happens to our hormones, organ systems and bodies overall as women is there to renew and strengthen us. When we work with the natural cycles of our bodies, we allow ourselves to heal and recover on a level that few of us ever reach when we operate within the "rules" of the hectic modern world. In the Zesty Ginger duo of Megan and Dr. Alex, Megan focuses on the power of our thoughts, beliefs, energy, and frequency in a health journey. They are the founders of Healthy Hormones Group Program, Health Transformation Accelerator, Flight or Flight Fix, and co-host of the 4 Phase Cycle Podcast.

There Is Not One Right Path For Everyone

Both Dr. Alex Golden and Megan Blacksmith shared their rock bottom health experience. They tried everything in the medical system, including testing and numerous medicines, pills, and visits that led to feeling even more hopeless. Each came back hearing that they were 'fine' and that there was nothing else to do because their testing showed no health issues. In this experience of feeling frustrated and misunderstood, they each changed course in their lives to study and learn how our bodies are so much more than the physical body we know. From an integrative approach, they each studied how the brain, our habits, and our beliefs have way more to do with health than we understand. Dr. Alex Golden went back to medical school. Megan Blacksmith pursued functional medicine and nutritional healing. Much of what they teach is to trust your inner wisdom, know that you can shift your beliefs and physical, emotional and mental state and that there is no one right or same path for everyone. Their goal was to create transformational healing for all who desired it.

The Powerful World of Transformational Healing

This model of transformational healing looks at the body as a whole system and includes the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual body. Can I get a hallelujah for that? Much of what we forget to address is the crucial aspect of our beliefs and habits. Both women talked about being told that their cases wouldn't get better. If they believed those mandates, they wouldn't have healed. It often becomes a choice whether to listen to a doctor or your internal voice. Much of what's important to understand is that the brain is highly involved with getting better and healing. Most of us are doing anything we can to feel better, especially if we've been sick for a while or struggled with a situation like Dr. Alex, who had endometriosis or horrible cramping. You need to be in a healing mode, which means new ways of thinking, beliefs, and habits. Our emotions and thoughts affect and communicate with our Central Nervous System (CNS). Because our brain is always looking to be most effiicent, it will stay on autopilot and remember your habit pattern of thought and emotion. Different thoughts can change the chemical messages in your brain. While it's important to change habits around sleeping, eating and movement, it's even more important to change your thought pattern. Changes in thoughts change your brain chemistry, which changes everything.

Habits, Hormones, and Your Brain

To be receptive to change habits and your brain, you need to be coming from your parasympathetic system (rest and digest) rather than your sympathetic nervous system (fight and flight). The sympathetic nervous system is what gets triggered when we're in a state of stress. It's also essential to understand the HPA axis; this is the connection and chain reaction from your Hypothalamus, Pituitary Gland, and Adrenals. Most don't realize that the hypothalamus, a region in the forebrain, controls hunger, thirst and determines what is in the bloodstream. It decides whether you'll sleep well, lose weight, have great skin, or whatever it is you believe. To make real change and have a transformation, you've got to understand how vital your habits and beliefs are. Some of the steps to making a change are getting clear on your goal, getting your body into a parasympathetic state, finding old beliefs that don't serve you and releasing and installing new ones—then making an empowered decision to change and making sure your actions align with who you are becoming. Most importantly, watch your thoughts and beliefs to ensure they best support your intended state and outcome.

Three Tips and Techniques to Heal and Thrive

Dr. Alex Golden shared three powerful tips that you can use for your physical, mental, and emotional body for greater healing and calm.

The Physical Body:

It's important to activate the vagus nerve, connected to many bodily functions like digestion, processing emotions, stress, etc. One simple way to activate your vagus nerve is to thump your hand on your chest bone for at least a repetition of 20 times. Try this until you feel a resonance. Other practical ways to do this are singing, humming, and gargling.

The Mental Body:

• Try this 'Standing in the Eye of the Storm' technique where you imagine yourself in the center of a big storm.
• Pull in your energy, create space and stay connected to your own self.
• Imagine your staying calm and collected in the storm.

The Emotional Body:

Try the 'White Light Shower'. This is all about connecting to unconditional love. Imagine a beautiful white light from above entering at the top of your head, moving down to your feet. Allow your emotions, any that are there, to flow with the light to the bottom of your feet and imagine these emotions, along with the light, being recycled into the earth.

Final Thoughts

Dr. Alex Golden and Megan Blacksmith help us see that if you want transformational healing in your life, you have to see there is more to it than medicine. You have to look at the bigger picture. View yourself as a complete entity (which you are) and address your needs on this higher level than treating just your physical symptoms. That is where you will find true transformational healing.

Meet Wah!

Wah! is an accomplished musician, record label owner, mother, and one of the founders and leaders of today's global yoga community. Wah! has spent over 25 years teaching and performing, helping people relax, improving their health, and learning about compassionate relationships. Her CDs have sold over 100,000 units worldwide; if you have taken a yoga class in the last 10 years, you have undoubtedly heard her music. In 2011 iTunes featured her with a compilation titled "Greatest Yoga Music Ever." Her new book Self-Care: Building a Stronger, Smarter, More Peaceful Self brings people simple, effective ways to improve health and mood, manage stress, and prevent burnout and depression. She's been featured in Ladies Home Journal, Mantra Yoga & Health Magazine, and Yoga International Magazine.

If you've ever attended a yoga class or listened to meditation music, you have most likely heard Wah!'s visceral and transformational music. Wah! shared that her name has many meetings, including bliss and flower in Chinese, energy in Korean, and the concept of awe, as in 'there's nothing left to say' in Hindi. Wah! embodies this beautiful blissful and transformative flower-like energy. I hope you enjoy the music and heart connection at the beginning and end of this episode.

The Power of Humming

Did you know that humming is one of the most healing things you can do for your own vitality, energy, and body? Wah! explains that when you hum, you are naturally calibrating to your body and cells. We all have this innate ability to heal ourselves through the power of humming. Through humming, you lengthen your breath and activate your parasympathetic nervous system, which is the rest and digest aspect of your nervous system. Humming creates a natural soothing and calming down of your body and energy.

All Energy Matters

Wah! explains that every organism operates at 70hz and that when there is an illness like cancer, research shows that one's electrical energy can dip as low as 55hz. It is crucial to take care of, protect and honor your energy. You can use your attention to focus on different things that will help you to feel higher energy, like music, humming, appreciation, and self-care. Speaking of energy and frequency, she reminds us that we need to be mindful of all the intense energy we are surrounded by, such as our cell phones which can measure close to 1200 Mhz, and microwaves which also give off a lot of electromagnetic energy.

You Can Give Yourself an Empowering New Name (like Wah!)

Just like Wah! taking on a name that motivates and uplifts her, you can do the same. Create a name you use to address yourself, like 'Outrageously Loving' or 'Ambassador of Light', or whatever might help you feel more connected to a way of being that truly empowers you. In case you were wondering what 'Jai Ma' means after listening to Wah!'s chanting on this episode, she explained that Jai means 'wow', or 'oh my goodness' and that sacred awe and 'Ma' means 'mother', 'divine mother', 'mother nature' and/or the 'connection to the mother energy'.

Final Thoughts

Wah! shares with us an overall sense of empowerment. From knowing how crucial it is to protect your energy and raise it in times of stress to assigning yourself a new empowering name. There is no time like the present to begin this energetic transformation for yourself. Check out her moving yoga music if you don't already have it downloaded or saved to your playlist.

Meet Shelly Tygielski

Shelly Tygielski is the author of Sit Down to Rise Up and the founder of the global grassroots mutual aid organization Pandemic of Love. Her work has been featured by over 100 media outlets, including CNN Heroes, The Kelly Clarkson Show, CBS This Morning, the New York Times, and the Washington Post. A trauma-mindfulness teacher and a Garrison Institute Fellow, she has been called one of the "12 Powerful Women of the Mindfulness Movement" By Mindful.org and teaches self-care and resilience at organizations around the world.

I loved every moment of this conversation with Shelly. She is the real deal, my friend. She has followed her deep desire to make a positive change in the world and allowed herself to follow the breadcrumbs. It has led her to start a global non-profit that is all about helping communities worldwide get the services, shelter, goods, and nourishment they need to be well. Tune in to hear questions you can ask yourself that are powerful AF. You can't come away from this interview not feeling motivated to take action and be of greater service. For that reason, and many others, I am a big fan of Shelly's and hope you feel extra inspired after listening to her story.

Sit Down to Rise Up

After following her inner guidance and signing up for a meditation class back in the early nineties in her graduate program at Columbia University, Shelly Tygielski discovered a calm and deeper connection through the power of mindfulness and meditation. Years later, she realized that if we just focus only on ourselves and our inner world but don't use our inner guidance to make a difference, we are doing ourselves and the world a disservice. Shelly realized that we need to sit down and meditate, get calm and connected, to rise up and make a bigger impact. Her book Sit Down to Rise Up shares her insights a step further, be sure to look for that.

A Pandemic of Love

Shelly Tygielski asked herself what she could do to solve the problem and help out her community at the beginning of the pandemic. This grassroots greater desire led her to create a simple spreadsheet that paired up those who needed help and those who could give help. This heart-centered idea ended up spreading across the planet and is now a global non-profit called A Pandemic of Love that has 280 chapters in 16 countries. In sum, you can ask 'What if?' or 'Why not?' If you follow the 'Why not?' thread, you could end up creating a life-changing operation, like Shelly.

Two Questions to Change Your Life

We talked about the need to not only meditate but also to honor your feelings. As Dr. Dan Siegel said, 'you've got to name it to tame it', or the phrase I live by is 'feel to heal'. The two questions to ask yourself when you are feeling overwhelmed or struggling with your emotions are 1. What can I do about this? and 2. How do I come from a place of love? The focus on being loving with yourself is the game changer to feeling and expressing greater peace, both within and in the greater world.

Visit her online at http://www.shellytygielski.com.

Final Thoughts

Shelly Tygielski is a wonderful example of how going within can help you expand without. Be sure to look for her book Sit Down to Rise Up. And if you feel called to serve look into her non-profit A Pandemic of Love.

15 Days Of Gratitude To Change Your Life on InsightTimer

Meet Satya Scainetti

Satya Scainetti is the founder & creator of Satya Jewelry and a renowned speaker in the wellness space. After embarking on a spiritual journey that led her to study Eastern religious traditions for over 30 years, she was given her spiritual name, "Satya," which is Sanskrit for "truth." Satya founded her eponymous jewelry line in 2002 with a vision to inspire others to follow their own path to truth. Her background in social work and her passion for helping others also led her to found The Satya Foundation, which provides opportunities and assistance to children all over the globe and today, has raised over $1 million in donations. Satya's dedication to yoga and manifestation has earned her a trusted place in the wellness industry as an inspiring yogi, speaker, and teacher, where she seeks to empower and inspire others. Satya Jewelry invokes deeper conversations around fashion, spirituality, and greater wisdom. And, exciting news, You-est You listener! You can now get 20% off all Satya Jewelry at satyajewelry.com with my discount JULIE20.

Why Satya is Amazing

I know I say this often, but this conversation with Satya was truly one of my favs as it was so full of inspiration, heart, authenticity, and goodness. You can't listen to Satya's story and wisdom and not feel uplifted. There are so many ah-mazing takeaways that can help you follow your dream and truly trust yourself. Please share in the comments below, as I'd love to know what you learned from this episode and the dream you will pursue. Sit back, relax and enjoy this beautiful unfolding of faith, surrender, intention, and aligned action.

Dare to Dream

Satya's actual background and training were as a social worker who focused on early childhood development. She then became a yogi and Reiki Master, and she found a deeper connection to herself through meditation. After watching the Twin Towers go down on 9/11, she asked herself (and really dug deep to see the truth) what she wanted to do that would make a difference. In the pursuit of this greater purpose, Satya went on a month-long Reiki and spiritual retreat in the Bahamas. While there, she was given her spiritual name, Satya, which means truth in Sanskrit. She had a dream on her last night at the retreat that she had a jewelry business that focused on all the different truths in the world and gave back to children in need. She knew this was an idea dropped from the Divine, and within one week, she started Satya Jewelry. Satya shared that this fearlessness came from getting silent within herself, from soulful practices like yoga, meditation, and listening to her inner wisdom. Some of my favorite words of wisdom from this conversation were:

• "All the answers are inside of us, and you just need to get quiet to hear it." "When you have a pure intention, the doors will open."
• "You need to get out of your own way."
• The Universe and earth are screaming to have us help if it's bettering the world and collectively moving the needle."
• "Don't get stuck on what you want. Let the Universe deliver it to you."

Trust Yourself and Set Intentions

We talked about how important it is to trust yourself. Satya Scainetti so eloquently said, 'You must trust yourself. Don't give up. Tap into your power and truth. Then surrender and lean on the power of prayer, which is here for all of us." Being truthful to yourself is key and has been a big part of Satya's life as she lives into her spiritual name, which literally means truth. We talked about how settling could be a form of not being truthful. The problem is that settling gnaws at your core and doesn't go away. Satya chose to follow her greater desire to do something that mattered to her. Going for her dream felt spiritually guided, and Satya Scaientti sees her brand Satya Jewelry as truly being divinely inspired. By being deeply connected to her intention, Satya created a beautiful and meaningful jewelry company and started a foundation early on so that she could give back immediately to support building schools and shelter for children in India.

Manifestation Made Easy

Don't get stuck on what you want. Allow the Universe to deliver to you in a way that is often way better than what you could imagine. Satya Scainetti talked about easy steps to help you in the process of manifestation:

1. Put everything you want into prayer
2. Keep your eyes wide open and look for signs
3. Trust -- in yourself and the greater good of the divine
4. Get quiet and tap into your own inner knowing. Anytime you hear your head say 'I can't', shut this down and train yourself to not put up with 'I can't'.

Satya started her company at age 40 and she reminds us all that it is never too late to go after your dream. Remember, love attracts love. Light attracts light. Keep your intention pure and get out of your way so that you can be a channel for the divine to manifest through you and within you. If you want more abundance, feel the energy of abundance. Tune in to the feeling of abundance.

A Kindness Challenge

Satya invited us all to do a kindness challenge. To do at least one kind thing every day, whether it be smiling at the check-out person at the grocery store, giving a compliment, or thanking your delivery person. Then watch what happens in your life, and you'll be astounded by the wonderful, miraculous things that open up. Feel free to share about your acts of kindness here and what you're noticing shift in your own life. I'd love to hear all about your kindness challenge.

Final Thoughts

Satya Scainetti reminds us that we should ask ourselves "what do I want to do to make a difference?" Then trust in yourself, set the intention to do it and make it happen. It is also through small acts of kindness, practiced every day in your "kindness challenge", that we can foster significant changes in our lives.

Don't forget! You can get 20% off all Satya Jewelry at satyajewelry.com with my discount JULIE20.
