Chakra Empowerment to Heal with Lisa Erickson Nov 20, 2023

Show notes

The energy body is what flows between our physical, psychic and spiritual, and whatever we experience impacts our energy. Whether we are simply going through different life phases or transitions, have experienced illness or trauma, our energy is not only affected but can get stuck in an energy center, also known as our chakras. In this episode, I talk with Lisa Erickson, who is an energy worker specializing in trauma healing and guiding her clients in how to self-guide in clearing their chakras, so that they can ultimately be the source of their own healing. Lisa clearly explains what each energy center means, including what it looks like when the energy is stuck, along with valuable visualizations and affirmations for clearing. If you are someone who would like to rewire the vibrational pattern in their body, release old reactive patterns based on old traumas or emotional challenges, or simply want more insight into how to heighten your awareness of your mind/body connection, then this episode is for you.

About Lisa: Lisa Erickson is an energy worker specializing in women's energetics, sexual trauma healing, chakra manifestation, and kundalini awakening. She is the author of Chakra Empowerment for Women and The Art and Science of Meditation both published by Llewellyn Worldwide. Lisa is certified in mindfulness meditation instruction and trauma sensitivity, and has trained in a variety of energy healing and somatic modalities. She is a member of The Breathe Network, a non-profit dedicated to supporting holistic healing and healers for sexual trauma survivors.

Shift Your Life with Meditation, Breathwork and Vibrational Healing with Holly Copeland Nov 13, 2023

Show notes

After going through a series of existential and health challenges, Holly Copeland turned to meditation to heal what she had gone through. Recovering from mold poisoning, feeling unfulfilled and disenchanted with a career she had been passionate about, and a marriage that wouldn't last, she learned how to quiet her mind, and found the alignment and peace she'd been seeking. Turning this newfound personal growth into her new profession, Holly became a coach who helps her clients learn meditation through a nondual awareness approach so that they can know themselves as a fundamentally whole being, dissolving old patterns of the ego and coming into a "true-knowing" nature, which allows them to feel more open and free, with a lens of peace, acceptance and happiness to move through their lives. Holly also guides in breathwork to open chi and release energies, helping others delve into a state of transformation, allowing for reprogramming of old belief systems, along with Biofield Tuning, which clears the traumas and memories we hold in our vibrational field. If you are someone who wants to be inspired on how to be the source of their own healing and happiness through a variety of modalities, then this episode is for you.

About Holly: Holly's passion lies in helping people discover what it means to step into the flow with life and live in joy and wellbeing while healing their mental, emotional, and physical bodies. Her background weaves certified training in the healing modalities of Breath of Love and Biofield Tuning with Human Potential Coaching, Reiki and Subtle Energy meditation.

With a deep connection to nature from her 25+ year career as a conservation scientist, she founded HeartMind Alchemy to unite ancient wisdom and modern science with three mind-body tools of meditative inquiry, breathwork and vibrational healing to empower clients on their path to human flourishing and upgrading from "ordinary mind" to awake awareness. She guides people out of the muddy waters of the thinking mind to live in flow joyfully and effortlessly from their own inner compass and stable ground of being. She offers vibrational sound healing sessions and coaching to facilitate physical and emotional healing for greater vitality and wellbeing.

Processing John's Grief Over His Son's Death Nov 06, 2023

Show notes

Slightly over two weeks ago, John and I came home from an epic Africa trip. The following day, the police came to John's door to tell him his 23-year-old son, Brett, was dead.

As always, we try to use experiences in our lives to authentically and honestly teach others - how to feel, how to cope, how to make meaning, and how to rejuvenate and re-open the heart after loss.

Trigger warning: This one is raw, emotional, and contains discussion about death and grieving. We talk about…

What emotions show up in the emotional turmoil that is grief?

How does grief show up in the body?

How do you make sense of a tragic death afterwards?

What are some of the best things you can say to someone in grief?

What are some best practices to re-engage with life and routine after a death?

Thank you for your support during this difficult time. Thank you for listening. Thank you for the love. Thank you for being you. You matter to us. You are important to us. You are why I do what I do.

Please share with others if you feel they might benefit from this episode on loss, death and grief.

The Power of Being, Not Doing, with Chris Cirak Oct 23, 2023

Show notes

How often do you feel like you are missing out on your life? Like you're doing wonderful things but you aren't really taking it all in because you're just not fully present? The key to living a fulfilling and satisfying life is to try to be in the here and now (which is easier said than done) and to recognize when your mind has wandered off to the future or the past, or get stuck in judgment or reactivity. In this episode I talk with Chris Cirak who is an author, speaker and mindfulness and meditation teacher who guides others in building the muscle of awareness, stillness, acceptance and presence, and why connecting to our breath is foundational for experiencing our lives fully. If you are someone who is interested in deepening your journey of increased self-realization, acceptance of yourself and others, as well as shifting out of old outdated belief systems and patterns of conditioning, then this episode is for you.

Show notes

Join John and I in Costa Rica Sept. 2024 for a relationship retreat; early bird pricing ends Dec. 31, 2023: https://joreerose.com/retreats/costa-rica/

After coming back together after a short, but painful breakup, John and I consciously adopted daily and weekly habits and tools to strengthen our relationship.

In this episode, we go into detail, sharing what we did differently than before to consciously step towards one another in an effort to demonstrate our love, commitment, and dedication to the relationship. Once again, we share very vulnerable and honest examples and insights into how we healed in the hopes that we can inspire you to create shifts in your relationship. We know that strong relationships are foundational to your happiness and health so we invite you to adopt some of what we have embodied so that you can thrive in your partnership. If you want a stronger relationship then this episode is for you!

How to Create Equity in Your Relationship, with Zach Watson Sep 18, 2023

Show notes

Anyone who is in a relationship knows how difficult it can be to divide up the household and child responsibilities. Too often, inequity in partnership can lead to great frustration, build resentment and affect the quality of connection. In this episode, I talk with Zach Watson who is a content creator on the topic of fair play, which is equitable mental and emotional load, along with the benefit of sharing domestic responsibilities. He shares the factors that laid the foundation for an ease of sharing the responsibilities with his wife, including being raised by a mom who taught him to respect women, along with having an inherent interest and desire for personal growth and effective communication. Zach shares in detail the shifts he made when his wife was pregnant, including giving up drinking and wearing a weighted belt so that he could fully embrace and emulate her pregnancy experience, making it their joint pregnancy experience. This is an example of how a small inconvenience can lead to an increase in equity. If you are in a partnership that feels more like one partner is the project manager and the other is the employee, versus you both being like co-founders, and you'd like

inspiration and tools to create a redistribution of workload and mental load, then this episode is for you.

Becoming Relational with Terry Real Sep 11, 2023

Show notes

Relationships are not easy and love is not enough. And especially when we come from a challenging childhood homelife, we quickly learn what doesn't feel good and know the patterns we don't want to continue in our future relationships, but we don't always know the "how" to do that. In this episode, well-known best-selling author and renowned relational therapist Terry Real shares insights and tools on how to build a foundation of relational awareness so that we can develop healthy and thriving partnerships. He shares how the gift of a dysfunctional family is heightened emotional awareness as it forces you to tune into the micro cues of others' behaviors, moods, and tone, as well as how to develop a stance of self-protection, as the key is survival. Terry has taken his personal experiences of growing up in a difficult home environment as the foundation for developing a transformative relational style of couple's therapy that highlights how to overcome your trauma so that you can connect with those you love in a deeper, more connected, intimate and authentic way. In this episode we talk about how to be loving while also confrontational, how to effectively express your needs and how to develop the relationship you desire. If you are someone who struggles with intimacy and connection in your relationships, then this episode is for you.

Terry has been a practicing family therapist for more than thirty years, and his

work has been featured on NBC Nightly News, Today, Good Morning America,

the CBS Early Show and Oprah, as well as in The New York Times, Psychology

Today, Esquire, and numerous academic publications.

His most recent book Us: Getting Past You & Me to Build a More Loving

Relationship is a New York Times Bestseller. In 2007 his first book I Don't Want

From Breakup to Better than Ever, with Dr. John Schinnerer Sep 04, 2023

Show notes

Here's the true story of two therapists who fell in love, struggled in their relationship with some repetitive, seemingly unbreakable patterns that lead to a painful breakup and how they eventually healed to be better than ever. In this Season 5 opener, me and my now-again fiancé, Dr. John Schinnerer, share our very vulnerable journey over the past year of what led to our breakup and how we were able to come back together. We always knew love isn't enough, and our love for one another was never in question. However, an accumulation of small hurts, combined with wounds and traumas from our past and childhood got in the way of us being able to be fully authentic, vulnerable and ultimately able to hear one another. Despite our education, training and careers, we found ourselves in the painful (and common!) anxious-avoidant dance that many couples get into. And after a couple of months apart, realizing that we were the only ones for each other, we committed to doing the deep work of healing, which has led us to being better than ever, along with the ability to have created new patterns that reflect our love and devotion to growth and a healthy partnership. It is our hope that our honesty inspires other couples to courageously embark on the journey of healing so that you can have the fulfilling and connected relationship you desire.

If this conversation inspires you, then join John and I in Costa Rica for a relationship retreat in which you'll gain the insights and tools to heal what is standing in the way of the fulfilling relationship you desire.

Growing up with worth, esteem and confidence is something we all want for our children, especially our daughters, and yet it is something that is not always easy to accomplish. In absence of these attributes many parents are sending their girls off into the world potentially unprepared to thrive.

Better Sex Through Mindfulness, with Dr. Lori Brotto May 22, 2023

Show notes

Hey ladies! Have you ever experienced a decrease in desire for sex? Or, have you experienced pain associated with sex, preventing you from enjoying it? Or have you ever had a wandering mind (like thinking about what you're going to make for dinner tomorrow, or setting up a playdate for your kids) that has left you completely not present during sex? If any of this is familiar to you, you're not alone! In this week's episode, I talk with Dr. Lori Brotto, a clinical psychologist and sex researcher who has helped women understand their normative and adoptive changes in their sex response so that more pleasurable and enjoyable sex is available to them. She shares her research in which women's body are positively responding to sexual stimuli with a higher arousal than what is self-reported. This mind/body disconnect can be the result from a myriad of causes such as negative self-talk, chronic stress or fatigue, depression or anxiety, illness, trauma or unhealthy relationships. The solution to creating more synchronicity between the mind and body is mindfulness practice. If you are someone who has ever struggled with sex, then this episode is for you!

About Lori: Dr. Lori Brotto is a Professor in the UBC Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, where she holds a Canada Research Chair in Women's Sexual Health. In this role, she is focused on developing safe, effective, and accessible treatments to address highly prevalent sexual concerns in women. She is especially interested in equity issues and as such has increasingly focused on digital health technologies to ensure that more women have access to treatments.

Dr. Brotto is also the Executive Director for the Women's Health Research Institute—one of only three institutes in Canada devoted to advancing research in women's health. In this role she supports nearly 500 members across the province to collectively advance our knowledge in all domains of women's health.

Given the known barriers that women experience in getting accurate health information, Dr. Brotto is also frequently featured in the media, radio, and features in a recent Netflix series, The Principles of Pleasure. She also has two books focused on mindfulness and sexual health (2018 & 2022).

Dr. Brotto believes in the importance of personal story and lived experience in shaping science. As such, she maintains an active practice as a Registered Psychologist where she sees a variety of individuals who want to improve their sex lives.

She is a strong advocate for empowering women to take on leadership roles, and will jump at the chance to speak with young women about pursuing a career in science, technology, engineering, and medicine.
