Raphaël Colicci on Biodynamic Agriculture, Holistic Therapy and Earth Connection - E87 Feb 19, 2020

Show notes

How can we create abundance in harmony with nature?

In this episode entitled Collaborating With Nature For Health And Healing, Amisha meets holistic therapist, cultivator of heritage foods and agricultural researcher Raphaël Colicci.

Raphaël has enjoyed a deep bond to Mother Earth and wild nature since being raised on donkeys milk as an infant, and he knew at the tender age of 14 that he wanted to pursue a twin trail of work as a physical therapist and biodynamic cultivator.

Raphaël shares the story of how he took on a plot of stony ground in the south of France and with patience, persistence, experiment and great care went beyond what was considered possible to cultivate a magnificent conservatory of rare and ancient fruit trees. Raphaël has devoted his life to researching and growing these fruit trees for their healing and nutritional properties as well as their marvellous flavour.

Raphaël has founded a centre for natural therapies, including treatments with every part of the olive plant and also apitherapy from bees. He shares with us what he has learned from a lifetime of cultivation and experiment with the healing properties of nature, and invites us into the rhythm of his daily life. The result is a hypnotic and fascinating immersion in a rare and precious way of being.

Show notes

How can inner and outer exploration support authentic self-actualisation?

In this episode entitled Climbing Mountains For A View From Within, Amisha sits down with adventurer, social entrepreneur, filmmaker, and activist Sam Branson.

Swaady Martin on Sacred Leadership, Intuition and Responsibility - E84 Jan 29, 2020

Show notes

How can we step with a clear heart into the responsibility that comes with privilege?

In this episode entitled The World Needs To Be Loved Not Saved, Amisha sits down with serial entrepreneur, author and teacher Swaady Martin. A former award-winning executive at General Electric, Swaady has gone one to found a series of socially conscious enterprises, as well as teaching mindfulness and yoga and writing spiritual tales for children.

From a very young age, Swaady had a strong sense of being the creator of her own life. Her parents - both very different and from different blended cultural backgrounds- instilled in her a sense of responsibility that came along with the privilege she was born into.

Swaady shares with us the inner process of deconditioning that we must go through in order to reconnect with our authentic selves, the earth and each other. By deeply questioning every one of our beliefs and values, we can clear space for the quiet voice of intuition to become louder, and to step into sacred leadership led by our intuition and our hearts.

Tara Judelle on Embodied Flow, Transformational Yoga and The BodyMind - E82 Jan 15, 2020

Show notes

How do we thrive in every layer of fabric of our consciousness?

In this episode entitled Stepping into Flow as Meditation in Action, Amisha spends time with yogi, teacher and founder of the School of Embodied Flow, Tara Judelle.

Tara shares her journey from being a 'brain dominant human' to her current work teaching and practising Embodied Flow yoga. She talks us through the multi-layered process of discovering and connecting with the bodymind on the deepest levels - finding balance, synergy and sensitivity within our system.

Tara speaks about her evolution of understanding from studying tantric texts and yoga asanas for 30 years, to finally coming into an embodied experience of what she has learned. She explains how we can achieve a balance between integrity and permeability, structure and flow, intake and output, moment by moment.

Together Amisha and Tara discuss the nature of self, the relationship between effort and surrender, and the art of yielding through airports. Finally, Tara leads us through a meditation for embodiment, where you will get to enjoy the experience of your brain melting like lava.

Nina Simons on Leadership, Diversity and Restoring the Feminine - E81 Jan 07, 2020

Show notes

How can we restore the feminine within ourselves and society in order to lead from our hearts?

"One of the systems errors that we as humans tend to make, is to think that people who think like us are smart and people who don't think like us are not - and actually nature shows us over and over again that the most resilient ecosystems are the ones with the greatest diversity of species." ~ Nina Simons

In this episode entitled Nature, Culture and the Sacred: Listening for Leadership, Amisha connects with award-winning social entrepreneur and visionary thinker Nina Simons. Nina is Co-Founder and Chief Relationship Strategist of Bioneers, a nonprofit organisation that highlights breakthrough solutions for restoring people and planet.

Nina speaks about what she has witnessed, experienced and learned over 30 years working with change-makers and activists. Nina speaks about learning to lead from the heart rather than the mind by decolonising our inner world, learning to value difference, feeling our communal challenges and prioritising the love that can carry us through them.

Together Nina and Amisha discuss the importance of ritual, how to build, sustain and grow with relationship, and reclaiming the feminine in ourselves and in our cultures. They enquire into the nature of activism - how we can each find our individual assignment and role in these times, and what - if anything - is truly worth dying for.

Living Life from our Truest Potential - E80 Jan 02, 2020

Show notes

How can we open to more of our unique human potential?

In this special episode entitled Freeing the Shackles to Create a Beautiful Future, to start a new decade, host Amisha Ghadiali shares some of her own journey and her interest in our untapped human potential and the importance of balance of both our inner and outer worlds.

"The Future Is ours for the creating. It is made up of how we spend our time, money and energy, now with our presence. The most precious resources we have are our creativity, intuition and the untapped human potential that lives in all of us. Let's be both bold and sensitive and use this to create the most beautiful future." Amisha Ghadiali

We were made for these times, and each one of us can dig a little deeper into our excellence, our resourcefulness, our humanity and our hearts. What a gift to be alive at this moment in time when our lives and our global future is so interconnected. What is your one wild and precious life asking from you?

Cultivating Courage and Presence - E79 Dec 18, 2019

Show notes

How can we cultivate the courage and presence needed for these times?

In this episode entitled We Were Made For These Times, we mark the end of this decade, and the end of the year with reflections from our host Amisha Ghadiali. She offers an exploration into the courage that we need for the next decade, and shares a myth which speaks to the power courage, as well as a meditation practice which supports the cultivation of presence.

"I feel that this is the way we get towards creating a more beautiful future. Having the courage to recognise that we are more than what we were told, that our place is bigger than where we were put, and then using that to challenge the system. Then we change the system, and create whole new worlds that make the system fade." Amisha Ghadiali

Uma Dinsmore-Tuli on Deep Rest, Sacred Activism and Total Yoga Nidra - E78 Dec 11, 2019

Show notes

How can we reconnect with natural cycles of rest and healing?

"We talk about sustainable energy use in buildings, but what about having respect for human energy systems - the energy of life itself - and working out sustainable ways to manage our resources?" ~ Uma Dinsmore-Tuli

In this episode entitled Rest As A Radical Act, Amisha spends time with writer, radical yogini and eco-feminist activist Uma Dinsmore-Tuli.

Uma introduces us to her practise of Total Yoga Nidra, and shares what she has discovered about the natural cycles of rest in our human biology, psyche and the world around us. She explains why we must remember to value rest, the importance of dream time and natural awakening for our emotional processing and receiving soul wisdom, why napping has become a radical act, and what might happen if politicians took a nap before every major decision.

Together Uma and Amisha reflect on the importance for women of getting to know their bodies through their menstrual cycle and the cultural shift towards honouring and respecting the wisdom of our bodies. Finally they discuss post-lineage freedom from the disempowering constraints of old hierarchies of yoga teaching - bringing the precious teachings of the yoga traditions into the present moment, and seeking out the common threads of wisdom that underlie delineated structures of yoga practise.
